Gold Forecasts and Golden Profits

Martin D. Weiss Ph.D. | Sunday, May 16, 2010 at 7:30 am

Gold Bullion

Larry Edelson’s gold forecasts have been so accurate — and his recommendations so profitable — we are doing everything humanly possible to help make sure you don’t miss them.

We held a major emergency briefing, including Larry’s specific gold recommendations. Thousands of investors attended, and I hope you were there too.

We immediately posted the video recording for thousands more to come and download it.

We posted Larry’s hot new report and emailed you the link several times.

Times That Try Men’s Soul

Martin and Irving

Before he passed away, my father warned that the next great financial crisis, like The Crisis Thomas Paine wrote when our nation was born, would bring “times that try men’s souls."

Especially vexing, Dad said, would be the uncanny similarities that seem to hark back to the past, but are actually hiding vast differences — unique, new conditions that make the next crisis unlike any other in his lifetime — or mine.

In late 1929 and early 1930, for example, soon after the great crash, things suddenly began to look up.

The stock market rallied sharply. Politicians, Wall Street pundits and the media rushed to proclaim that “the worst was over." And America breathed a great sigh of relief.

But it was not over. The real crisis — shutting down the banking system and plunging the globe into the Great Depression — had barely begun.

Today, there are obvious parallels, to be sure:

Like then, politicians have been running gleeful victory laps, claiming full credit for “ending" the crisis. Like then, Wall Street brokers were quick to agree, urging investors to buy stocks again with both hands. And like in 1930, the media has reported every bout of irrational exuberance with only rare skepticism.

But that’s where most of the similarities end!

* In the 1930s, the United States was one of the world’s largest creditor nations. Today, it is the largest DEBTOR nation.

* Back then, gold was not traded in the open markets and largely unavailable to individual investors. The only major holders of gold were central banks, who guarded their gold — and their currencies — with great care. Today, individuals all over the world are using gold as their main vehicle for escaping from — or REBELLING against — central banks.

* And perhaps most important, in those days, the government did everything in its power to protect the credit and credibility of U.S. Treasury securities. Today, deliberately or not, it seems to be doing everything in its power to undermine them!

These are some of the key reasons why we are now facing the greatest sovereign debt crisis in the history of the planet. And over the past three weeks, it has taken on ominous new overtones:

Strikes, protests and riots in the streets in Greece … the very real threat that the crisis will spread like wildfire through Italy, Spain, Portugal and Ireland … the European Union agreeing to spend $1 trillion to save itself and the euro … and most notably, our own Federal Reserve agreeing to print MORE U.S. dollars to buy European bonds.

Think about what this newest development means for a moment …

After creating hundreds of billions of dollars out of thin air to bail out our own banks, brokers, mortgage companies and automakers …

Not satisfied with the $1.3 trillion it created over the last year to buy bonds in an attempt to keep interest rates low …

The Fed is now committing to create still more paper greenbacks to bail out Europe!

Judging from readers’ questions,
these are, indeed the times
that try their souls …

Unsurprisingly, our readers have urgent, life-changing questions as they watch Washington flood the world with unbacked dollars: Wondering how this explosion of paper money will impact their buying power … their standard of living … and their financial security and independence in retirement.

THIS is precisely why Larry Edelson, Mike Larson and I hosted our emergency briefing on this great sovereign debt crisis.

I repeat: Right now, the video recording of our emergency briefing on this great sovereign debt crisis is still online. But events are moving so quickly, we must take it offline LATER TODAY!

In this crucial emergency briefing, Larry Edelson, Mike Larson and I help you protect your money before it’s too late and even help you USE this debt crisis to pile up substantial profits in 2010 and beyond.

We begin by answering five, all-important questions:

First, does this new debt crisis mark the end of the big stock market rally since March of last year? Or is it just a temporary interruption in the rally?

Second, how is the European debt crisis likely to impact your investments now and in the weeks ahead?

Third, when will this crisis hit Washington and what will they do next?

Fourth, how can you protect yourself no matter what Washington decides to do?

And fifth — gold.It’s surging even with the dollar rallying. How high might gold go if the dollar falls? Should investors add to their gold holdings now or wait for a correction? What about gold shares and other natural resources?

Plus, we reveal …

  • Why the U.S. is now in WORSE shape than some European governments that we are now bailing out …
  • How the recent collapse in European bonds and the euro is just the prelude to an equivalent collapse in U.S. bonds and the dollar …
  • The straw that will break the back of the U.S. dollar — when you see this happening it will probably be too late to insulate yourself …
  • Investments that make investors richer when stocks plunge …
  • Why this debt crisis virtually guarantees gold will nearly double — to at least $2,300 per ounce …
  • 3 gold stocks we’re expecting to triple, quadruple and more in 2010 and beyond …
  • 2 gold investments nobody should own but too many people do own …
  • Why this could be the precisely the WRONG time to buy platinum or palladium — and how to know when the time is right …
  • Two reasons why select oil and natural gas stocks should continue to soar even as the West suffers through this crisis — and THREE top oil stocks to buy now for maximum profit potential.
  • The three most promising China plays to buy now: Zero debt, flush with trillions in cash and growing its economy by double digits each year, China is the island of prosperity and calm in this sea of chaos. Here’s what to buy and when.
  • And we even offer you a valuable “Thank-You" gift just for watching!

But please remember …

This video recording of our emergency briefing
goes offline LATER TODAY!

Together, we can get your family and your wealth through this crisis and actually USE it to make you substantially richer!

Good luck and God bless!

Martin
