While we wait and see what Fed Governor Kevin Warsh decides to do with rates (the news drops late tonight), I have something else I’ve been working on.

My passion is being a gold stock analyst, but my trade is the gold stock newsletter business. They might sound similar, but they’re two very different roles.

Some folks might feel sheepish about even saying they’re in the newsletter business. That’s probably because they don’t feel strongly enough about standing by their work.

But I do stand by my work.

I put my “Hall of Fame” table at the bottom of each issue to show you some examples of how well my research has paid off. The table contains open positions up 2,474%, 1,385%, 942%, 471% and more – all since I launched my services back in December 2023.

I also publish all of my open and closed positions in my portfolios. These portfolios are posted live to my website and updated every minute the market is open. I don’t “disappear” positions with bad returns. They’re all there.

My current average return on my lowest cost research (on open and closed positions) is 356%, which includes two new additions that are sitting at 0%. Take those away and the average is 420%.

I’m super transparent, because the only way I make money is if I sell memberships to my research service, and people are happy enough to stick around.

Gold investors are a shrewd bunch. They can usually spot half-truths from a mile away. I know my competitors run all kinds of portfolio shenanigans – but you really can’t fool people for long by hiding losses or inflating claims of your successes…

And if you’ve been a gold investor for very long, I know you are accustomed to tall tales. Hopefully that means you’re able to tell the charlatans from the real thing.

And while I love being a gold stock analyst, the truth is, I have to sell my research to continue to do this work.

That means I can’t really give you the names of the companies I cover for free. But if you pay attention, I frequently drop clues and hints. My marketing people pull their hair out – but my real passion is analysis, not sales… So, every now and then I might let something slip.

I think that’s okay…

Why?

My take is: the ticker symbol or the company name is far from a complete look at what I do.

Even if I told you the names of all of my open positions – then what?

You still don’t know how I’m evaluating these companies, what I’m looking for, how much you should pay, and when you should sell.

You also don’t know which companies are my highest conviction, and which are more speculative.

That being said: the only way I can make this business work is to sell memberships to my services.

The problem: my research is not inexpensive. The lowest price I regularly charge is $500 for a full year’s access to my Golden Portfolio IV service. My highest priced service is $3,500/year.

(Sometimes I have a special deal, but you’re not likely to see my services for less than $200.)

So, I’m trying something different this week.

Tomorrow, I’m going to send you a link to my newest research report. Normally, to get access to my reports, you have to be a full member. But tomorrow, you can buy the standalone report for just $23.

The report is called “The High Yield Gold Annuity” for reasons that will become clear when you read my message tomorrow.

This report contains my highest conviction position across all of my services right now. The unique security I talk about in this report is doing something that no other gold company out there is doing – or can do.

For one, it’s one of the richest gold mines in operation, anywhere. But even better: it’s run by the best team in the gold business with decades of experience of knocking it out of the park.

Again… these are not so subtle hints and clues. I bet most of my readers could figure out the name of this firm with a little bit of googling or Chat-GPTing.

But finding out the name doesn’t give you all of the details of my research, which includes the economics of this mine, the rich history of the team behind it, or how much you should pay to own it.

The name alone also won’t give you updates or sell alerts.

But I’m putting all of that into one special package to sell this report alone (for the first time ever) for just $23.

If you’re interested, please pay attention to your email tomorrow. I will be sending you links to check out the full offer.

The catch? I’m only going to send this to you tomorrow. After that, I’m moving on.

Look for that email tomorrow about my new $23 special report. I think you’ll really enjoy what I’ve put together.

Best,
