The Best Investment You Can Make Right Now

Gold has been a sneaky-good investment for a while now. It’s up 7% in just the past six months and 14.5% over the past year. [Outsider Club Header] Sep 01, 2023 By Jason Simpkins for the Outsider Club The Best Investment You Can Make Right Now Investing in stocks is never a sure thing, but these days, things seem more uncertain than ever. For the past year, economists have been forecasting a recession, only for the economy to demonstrate an astonishing amount of resilience. Employment numbers are the best they’ve been in half a century. But it’s hard to shake the looming sense of dread — the feeling that an unknown shoe is yet to drop. Jerome Powell’s interest rate policy is a big part of the problem. He is without a doubt the worst Fed chair of my lifetime. I’d take Bernanke or Yellen over him any day. He whiffed badly on inflation — denying it even existed for more than a year before finally coming around. Now he’s over-correcting, jacking rates higher even though prices have cooled considerably. China is another wild card. Its economy is flagging badly, but Beijing isn’t really doing anything about it. I’m not even sure that they can. Meanwhile, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has destabilized energy and grain prices. And to top it all off, we’re now heading into an election year unlike any we’ve ever seen before. Joe Biden has a hard-boiled egg for a brain. And Donald Trump is going to be spending more time in a courtroom than on the campaign trail over the next six months. “Not guilty, Your Honor” is the worst campaign slogan I ever heard in my life. So while I’m cautiously optimistic (even bullish) about stocks, I think it might be a good idea to hedge our bets a little bit. And the very best way to do that is with gold. Who Lost 4.3 Million Tons of Lithium? For more than 40 years, an oil company has been using brine to produce oil on its 671-square-mile property in northwestern Alberta. And for almost as long, it’s been known that this brine is abundant in a metal called lithium... the building block of today’s rechargeable batteries. At today’s prices, that estimated 4.3 million tons of lithium dissolved in these brine ponds is worth more than $320 billion. The problem is, until recently, nobody could effectively extract this lithium from the rest of the solution. It took a young tech company headed up by petrochemical industry veterans and an agreement with the oil producer, but today that massive lithium resource is about to go into commercial production.

It’s up 7% in just the past six months and 14.5% over the past year. And regardless of what happens in the short term, gold’s price will continue to rise over the long haul due to one simple fact… We’re running out. I know that sounds kind of crazy, but it’s true. After all, we’ve been mining gold for centuries — millennia, even. And especially these past few decades, with more advanced exploration and extraction technologies, we’ve accelerated the depletion of a finite resource. Whereas in the 1970s every ounce of gold that was dug out of the ground was replaced by 2.6 ounces of newly discovered underground gold... By 2022, the equivalent figure was only HALF an ounce. Production has peaked and has actually been in decline since 2019. [JMT Gold Mine Production Worldwide Bar Chart] Tesla Is Dead... Elon Musk Is Ruined Thanks to a new discovery — known as “Blue Gas” — electric car companies like Tesla are about to go down in flames. “Blue Gas” is 100% emission-free, can propel vehicles hundreds of miles, and allows cars to fully charge in just minutes. And the tiny company behind it is primed to absolutely shatter any gains ever paid out by Tesla.

As a result, we’ve had to rely on low-grade deposits to make up the difference. The average reported ore grade is now less than 1.5 grams per ton — a 100-year low. [JMT Peak Gold Image 9] This is basic supply-and-demand economics. And it doesn’t even take into account other economic and political influences, like the weakening dollar. Of course, there are a lot of ways to invest in gold — coins, bullion, large-cap miners, junior explorers… But if you want to know the very best, [it’s right here.]( This latest report from resource expert Luke Burgess gives you all the details on a gold play that’s poised to deliver massive gains.
