Why Uranium & Silver Are Set to Skyrocket! - John Ciampaglia

Today, Steve Barton is joined by John Ciampaglia, CEO of Sprott Asset Management! In this high-impact conversation, John breaks down how global commodity markets are being reshaped by economic turmoil, geopolitical friction, and the return of investor interest in physical assets like gold, silver, uranium, and copper. Are tariffs and trade wars masking the real risks ahead? John unpacks why growing uncertainty—not just bad news—is the biggest threat to market stability right now. He dives into how Sprott’s physical trusts give investors secure, tax-advantaged access to precious metals, stored outside the bullion banking system and structured to protect against systemic shocks. John also takes a hard look at the opaque uranium contracting market and why long-term supply issues could trigger massive upside. He makes bold calls on which commodities are still flying under the radar — and why silver and uranium are his top “value trades” heading into 2025. Connect with John Ciampaglia!
