SIGN UP FOR RICK'S GOLD BOOTCAMP at http://thoughtfulmoney.com/rulebootcamp & his July Symposium at http://thoughtfulmoney.com/rulesymposium
The world economy has become a lot more uncertain in 2025.
The shift away from decades of globalization towards nationalism and regional trading blocks has accelerated with the protectionist policies the new Trump administration is now pursuing.
Gold has reacted to this uncertainty by soaring to new highs, and demand for other commodities is also in high flux right now.
Where is all this headed?
And are there opportunities the discerning investor can take advantage of amidst all this change?
For answers, we're fortunate to be joined by Rick Rule, one of the world's greatest living natural resource investors, and a heck of a gentleman, to boot.
