In today’s short discussion on gold, I aim to cover two key points. Firstly, I’ll share my outlook on the multi-year price target for gold. Secondly, I’ll explore a strategy to generate yield, addressing a common concern about gold’s lack of dividends compared to stocks and other assets. Critics rightly point out that gold doesn’t […]
Today, I have a stock for you that has the potential to deliver the type of long-term returns that would make the late Charlie Munger blush with envy. Its products are necessary for many industries. Doing business without them would have disastrous consequences. This company uses hundreds of engineers and scientists to develop and manufacture […]
While the latest “pause” from the Federal Reserve has markets rallying in anticipation of rate cuts next year, for borrowers rates remain high. And, if the Fed does begin cutting next year, it’s highly doubtful that rates will come down anywhere near as fast as they were raised over the past year. That leaves a […]
For many Americans, their pets may as well be their children—and they’d do anything to ensure their health.

Some will not Please understand that these companies have the potential for massive gains over the next several years. They are highly unlikely to make you rich beyond your wildest dreams by […]
Oil markets have been on a bit of a rollercoaster this year. The expectation going into 2023 was that oil would be fairly range bound, with the majority of its time spent in the upper part of the range. And while it has dropped in price recently, that drop is from a September/October price spike, […]
November was an excellent month for the U.S. stock market. The S&P 500 gained 9.1% in the month, compared to losing 5% over the previous two months. I was especially pleased to see the real estate sector (read: REITs) near the top of the sector performance chart. And more is coming. Let me show you… […]
