INSIGHT

Gold's Historical Performance

Gold prices increased by over 600% between 2000 and 2011.
A similar increase from the 2015 low of $1,000 would mean gold reaching $6,000.

INSIGHT

US Dollar Decline and Gold

Rick Rule anticipates a 75% decline in the US dollar's purchasing power over the next decade.
He attributes this to excessive on- and off-balance sheet liabilities.

ADVICE

Investing in Gold

Buy gold in anticipation of a substantial decline in the US dollar's purchasing power, similar to the 1970s.
Rule suggests gold could potentially reach $9,000, $10,000, or even $12,000 within five years.
