The Fed
To The Rescue

Once again, the Fed is about to send gold higher.

Watch this video presentation to learn why…

Dear John,

I just made a presentation that I think will go down as one of the most valuable in my career.

I was speaking at the Metals Investor Forum, put on by some good friends of mine in the junior mining industry.

They have these events two or three times a year, and they’re always well attended by 200 or so individual investors and a couple dozen junior mining companies.

I love talking to these attendees because, being based in Vancouver, they’re a pretty smart group of resource investors. They’re right in the thick of the junior mining market, and understand these companies through and through.

But I talked to them about the broader gold market — and why the table is set perfectly for the yellow metal right now.

A Rare Win/Win Proposition

I covered all the bases in my presentation — going over the short-, intermediate- and long-term view for gold, including some important technical considerations.

But I want to talk to you about the short-term opportunity that’s just developed.

You see, a clear pattern has developed since the Fed’s rate hike of December 2015, the first on its supposed path to rate normalization.

The Fed telegraphed its intentions before each of these three rate hikes, in December of 2015, December 2016 and this past March.

In each case, gold, silver and the mining stocks sold off in advance of the rate hike as speculators shorted the metals. Then, almost immediately after the Fed’s move, the metals rallied as these speculators covered their short bets.

Sustained, profitable rallies continued afterward in each case.

Which brings us to the current situation: Everyone expects the Fed to hike another quarter-point at the conclusion of its next meeting, on June 14th.

So gold is in a perfect, win/win position:

• If the Fed raises rates as expected, gold and silver should rally as the short bets are covered and a new uptrend begins.

• If the Fed doesn’t raise rates for some reason, it would shock the market — and send such a dovish signal that gold would rise even more.

As a result, we have a brief window of opportunity right now to buy gold, silver and mining stocks in advance of the Fed’s next meeting.

But don’t let me give away the whole story. The fine folks at the Metals Investor Forum have put my presentation up on YouTube, so you can watch it for yourself at the link below.

I urge you to view it now. As you’ll see, this is a particularly advantageous window for gold, and it won’t last long.

All the best,
