Global Coal Demand Hits Record as Renewables Not Ready
Europe’s Conundrum as it Continues to Import Coal
The World’s Top 5 Coal Consumers
Global coal demand reached record levels in 2023 despite governments pushing for cleaner, more sustainable energy policies. As virtue signaling and hopes for the future meet today’s reality, governments must balance policy with actual necessity. Without cheap energy, history proves that economies will struggle to grow.
Aaron lives in Calgary, Alberta and was recently threatened by the grid shutting down as an Arctic front moved in. Renewables were responsible for less than 1% of energy generation during this period of about a week, proving unreliable in a near winter crisis. About 5-6 years ago, Alberta began decommissioning its coal plants…
Europe and the United States are shutting down coal plants to reduce their reliance on the worst form of energy from the standpoint of greenhouse gas emissions. Meanwhile, countries like China and ….

The world is waking up to the fact uranium is hard to find, secure and produce as the price continues to trade near 15-year highs
There are currently 60 nuclear reactors under construction across the globe
As always, junior miners are rushing in, hoping to make a uranium discovery and capitalize on the boom
Throughout the world, few countries are as dependent on uranium as France. Nuclear energy accounts for about 62% of its total electricity generation. So, as uranium prices trade near $100, the highest level since 2007, France is uniquely suffering under the weight of soaring uranium prices.
France has a whopping 56 operational nuclear power reactors – making it one of the world’s largest users of nuclear power.
Many large economies, from Sweden at 29% to South Korea at 30%, depend on foreign uranium for their nuclear power plants for electricity generation.
France has historically been dependent on three nations for its uranium. ….

Alex Visits a Global Mining Hub in Northern Quebec
Gold’s stealth rally to new all-time highs is finally getting some press. Easter Monday saw gold rip to another fresh high of around $2,265 per ounce. And the rally isn’t over; gold was flirting with $2,300 by Wednesday. However, gold mining companies continue to lag the metal’s performance, still down significantly from their highs of spring 2023. According to several industry pundits, the memetic power of gold (and its investment allure), has changed with the advent of Bitcoin and its relatively rapid price ascent.
Gold’s Importance is Stronger than Ever
Aaron believes that after thousands of years of use, gold’s importance in our lives, economy, and technology has only grown… Civilizations have found value in gold for millennia, and today, it is most widely used in jewelry, as an investment, and in electronics, ….
U.S. Debt Goes Parabolic, Adding $1 Trillion Every 100 Days
Gold and Bitcoin Soar as Investors Flee Dollar
Copper Rips Higher Amidst Renewable Energy Revolution
The United States’ national debt is skyrocketing, currently growing by about $1 trillion every 100 days. Gold and Bitcoin are breaking out, trading near record highs, as market participants race to protect themselves against the ongoing currency debasement. And, as the renewable energy revolution rolls on, copper demand is soaring as its price diverges with iron ore.

Something BIG is Missing from the CPI Inflation Rate Calculation
The Vast Riches of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt
Gold and silver prices rose to new highs on Monday after gold closed at an all-time high the previous Friday. As investors and the public wake up to the stickiness of inflation, protecting one’s purchasing power is moving to the forefront. Precious metals outperform when war, uncertainty, and inflation drive the macro narrative. Finally, one historic Canadian gold camp may be poised to reap the benefit of higher gold prices in these volatile economic times…
Rick Rule on the Broken CPI Inflation Rate
Rick Rule explains why the CPI inflation rate calculation is a flawed index.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) calculates the CPI as a weighted average of prices in the economy. However, what is included in the basket has changed over the years. Policymakers and politicians removed food ….
The Coming Fiat Devaluation Will Send Gold and Other Commodities Higher
Rick Outlines the Metals and Markets He Believes Will Outperform
In the latest pod, Aaron sits down with legendary mining investor Rick Rule. Rick goes into the details of his first two major mining stock wins in Vancouver’s junior mining market…
From pouring drinks for the biggest mining players in town, to finding 15-baggers and more, Rick shares his personal story of making a fortune as a young man betting on speculative mining stocks.
The 1970s Were Good for Natural Resources and Mining Stocks
Rick explains that in the inflationary decade of the 1970s, he found it easy to make money with mining stocks. Too easy, in fact. As the gold price continued higher throughout the 70s, the street, as they say, was lured into gold and gold stocks, and a ‘melt-up’ took place. This made Rick ….
For years, we’ve spoken and written about the potential for ‘Peak Gold‘. Now, in 2024, we may have already hit this critical barrier/era for the precious metal…
According to gold.org, global gold production over the last decade has been relatively flat. Considering the falling average grade of gold mines globally, and the lack of exploration investment over the past decade, total gold production should continue to stagnate.
The World Gold Council explained in early 2023 that:
“Annual mine production increased 1% year over year although remains below the record high seen in 2018.”
Despite record central bank buying in 2022 and almost again in 2023, jewelry still dominates global gold consumption, accounting for 46% in 2023. Gold bars, coins, and ETFs account for about $3 trillion, representing roughly 1% of the $266 trillion financial assets invested globally. If ….
Dr. Kirk Elliott’s Thoughts on the Fed’s Next Move
With inflation stickier than most initially predicted, gold and gold stocks have benefited tremendously. What’s more, the Fed refuses to raise rates despite rising shelter costs, strong consumer demand and higher food prices. According to data from April 30th, the Case-Shiller national home price index hit a fresh all-time high in February.
Last week, Newmont topped all forecasts, reporting robust earnings that sent the stock up nearly 13% on April 25th. Newmont is the world’s largest gold producer and its strong fiscal performance could be a bellwether of things to come for the majors…
Tom Palmer, Newmont’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated,
“Newmont delivered a strong first quarter operational performance, producing 2.2 million gold equivalent ounces and generating over $1.4 billion in cash from operations before working capital changes.”
War and Inflation Drive Gold and Silver Prices Higher
China’s End Game Involves Gold and BRICS
Dr. Kirk Elliott’s Gold and Silver Price Forecast
The threat of war and sticky inflation has pushed gold to record highs. In the latest pod, Aaron sits down with Dr. Kirk Elliott, who runs one of North America’s largest silver bullion dealers. Elliott opens the pod by outlining why all gold and silver products are not created equal and argues that our current environment is perfect for precious metals to thrive. He states,
…but, those exact same fundamentals cause gold and silver to ….
“We bring hope as a financial solution when the world is falling apart, politically, economically, when banks are about to fail, we’ve got unsustainable debt, interest rates are climbing, people can’t afford to make ends meet, now you’ve got wars and rumors of wars… all those fundamental forces cause stocks, bonds, mutual funds to come down…”
