Unlike the stock markets, Gold has been around for over 5,000 years.
Now that’s longevity.
However, most investors either love or hate owning gold and gold stocks…but they really don’t understand why.
Let me explain.
As we begin 2020, The Year of Chaos, owning gold – and especially gold mining stocks – will be one of the greatest hedges against Turbulent Times.
Why?
In 2019, gold flew under the radar while increasing a respectable 17.26%. However, gold and silver mining stocks – in the Franklin Gold and Precious Metals mutual fund (FKRCX) – increased over 46.90%.
Of course, you won’t hear about that from the boyz in the “Club.”
Why?
They’re the ones constantly telling you why you should hate gold and precious metals stocks.
Why?
So, they can buy them ahead of the sheeple.
They also know that gold makes up a mere 1% of all investor’s assets on a global basis.
For this reason, it keeps their purchases relatively small.
Why?
When big money moves into a small asset class, it tends to run the price up dramatically.
Think of it this way. If investors decide (and they eventually will) to increase their holdings in gold to 2% from 1%, they’ve then effectively doubled the volume and more than likely caused the price to go up over 100%.
If the price of gold doubles, what do you think happens to the price of your gold and silver mining stocks?
Are you starting to see the picture?
This is only one of the many reasons why you need to own physical gold AND mining stocks in The Roaring 20s of This Century.
In our January newsletter we’ll dig deep as to why you need to own mining stocks (pun intended).
We’ll also list some our favorites for you to consider.
