“Inflation? It doesn’t matter when the crisis hits — only that it will,” says Jeff Clark, veteran gold analyst and author of Paydirt. Speaking with Daniela Cambone at the Rule Symposium, Clark warns that the vulnerabilities in today’s financial system — from surging deficits to ballooning debt — make a major disruption inevitable. His solution? Physical gold. Citing long-term studies, he argues that a 20% allocation to gold provides the best balance of risk protection and upside.

Clark reflects on past bull markets, where gold stocks delivered massive gains — including 141 ten-baggers between 2009 and 2011 — and says he’s hunting for the next wave of outsized winners. “If we can just catch 5% of them, the payoff could be enormous,” he says. He also makes the case for silver, noting the historic gold-to-silver ratio remains at extreme highs and hinting at silver’s potential to outperform gold before the current bull run is over. “The goal isn’t to predict the storm,” Clark says. “It’s to prepare for it.”
