Dollar Purchasing Power Could Collapse
Rick Rule predicts the U.S. dollar's purchasing power could fall ~75% over ten years, mirroring 1970s erosion.
He argues gold's nominal price should roughly mirror that decline, implying a several-fold price rise.
insights INSIGHT
Negative Real Rates Drive Gold Moves
Rick Rule says the 1970s dollar crisis was driven by negative real interest rates, not just inflation.
Negative real yields forced asset reallocations from cash to gold then, and could do so again now.

CPI Understates Real Living Costs
Rick Rule criticizes CPI as understating real cost pressures and omitting taxes.
