Gold Stocks Are Starting to Outperform

In 2023 and 2024, gold prices trended higher. That trend has continued this year, with gold prices rallying over 20%.

In prior years, gold mining companies have been conspicuously absent from that rally. But in 2025, they’re starting to move up – and at a faster pace than gold:

Gold mining stocks should perform better than gold during a rally. Why? Imagine a gold company has total cash costs of $1,500 per ounce.

At $2,500 gold, they make a profit of $1,000 per ounce. If gold rallies to $3,500, a 40% rally, the miner’s profit goes from $1,000 to $2,000 per ounce – a 100% jump in profits.

That’s the power of investing in gold mining companies. Aside from the first half of 2016, this is the best setup for gold mining stocks since the early 2000s. It’s not too late to buy gold stocks if you haven’t done so yet.

The Shocking Truth Behind Apple’s Biggest Comeback

While headlines predict Apple’s demise, a secret project Steve Jobs personally initiated — Project Mulberry — is finally ready. And one tiny $30 supplier holds the key to this long-awaited breakthrough. See the full story here…

P.S. We’ve been pounding the table on gold since the inception of the Grey Swan Investment Fraternity. And it’s been nearly 10 months since we released our initial deep-dive research into gold.

While our estimates for gold moving to the five-figure range may have seemed wild last year, with the continued rally and ongoing central bank gold buying, our research only holds up with the passage of time.

Given that gold could rally not just to $10,000 but more than twice that, it’s still a reasonable price, especially if you need to buy some more of the metal as portfolio insurance against a Grey Swan event like a financial crisis or renewed inflationary spike.

The Hindenburg Five

February 24, 2026 • Addison Wiggin

The stock market “rebalancing” is a polite way to put it. Energy and health care are getting a healthy boost. But tech hardware and software makers are still getting dressed down and have been asked to report to the principal’s office.

The great rotation underway has triggered a series of “Hindenburg Omens.” Five have occurred in recent weeks.

The S&P 500 has traded in a 3.7% range over the past two months — less than half the 20-year median of 8.6%. One of the tightest ranges in modern history.

In trader parlance, the indexes are “flat,” a setup that often materializes before a sell-off at the top after a multi-year bull market.

Goldman Sachs told its own traders to be aware that institutional trading activity resembles a VIX reading near 35. Rather than a reading of 20, where the VIX has been trading over that same 2-month period.

The U.S. software ETF, IGV, tested its April 2025 lows last week and trades roughly 35% below its peak. The “SaaS-pocalypse” in software companies reflects the fear of Citrini’s 2028 scenario happening in real time.   That divergence now exceeds the spread seen at the peak of the Great Financial Crisis.

Under the surface, the “great rotation” we wrote about last week is threatening to widen.

Oh. Canada

Despite its overly-educated 40-million-plus population, on a GDP per capita basis Canada is null. Collectively, the Great White North would rank as America’s second-lowest state, coming in above Mississippi, but below Alabama.

Matt Milner: SpaceX + xAI: What It Means for You

SpaceX is the most valuable private startup in history — and if its success continues, it might become the most valuable public company in history.

After all, as Musk famously said in 2023, “I have never lost money for those who invest in me and I am not starting now.”

For investors, SpaceX has been a wild, joyful ride — and now the journey continues!
