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.

Grey Swan #2: The Crack-Up Boom Reaches Terminal Velocity

January 1, 2026 • Addison Wiggin

The crack-up boom does not signal immediate collapse. Monetary policy gets a new master… inflation rages… and investors chase stocks as a means of keeping pace with their savings.

Markets may even finish 2026 higher than they begin. Many investors will still lose purchasing power along the way. Terminal velocity will feel like momentum… until reality hits.

In 2026, expect breathtaking advances, with the AI narrative remaining dominant, and sudden reversals to occur quickly. Expect liquidity to remain plentiful and erode discipline even more.

Grey Swan #3: The Midterms Deliver a Socialist Majority in the House

December 31, 2025 • Addison Wiggin

If the socialist agenda lands, the reaction matters as much as the results of the initial vote.

A hostile House gridlocks legislation. Investigations proliferate. Impeachment chatter returns. Executive authority stretches to compensate.

The political goal of the reactionary strategist will be to muck up the Trump realignment as much as possible to regain power in the House, the Senate (eventually), fortify the courts and ultimately take back the Oval Office. 

Trump will not face a midterm defeat like past lame-duck presidents. We’ll see a host of creative efforts to assert executive authority and override the people’s House. The checks and balances bestowed by Montesquieu at the very root of the Republic will be tested as never before.

Grey Swan #4: America’s Covert Resource War in South America

December 30, 2025 • Addison Wiggin

If the U.S. can no longer afford to police the world, it will prioritize what sits closest to home. Oil, lithium, copper, rare earths, food, and shipping lanes in the Western Hemisphere matter more to America’s economic resilience than abstract security guarantees signed eight decades ago.

The Financial Times captured this shift late in 2025, noting that U.S. foreign policy is “increasingly transactional, geographically compressed, and resource-oriented.” Bloomberg went further, describing a “hemispheric retrenchment” underway beneath the noise of global diplomacy.

We have observed passively that empires of the past, burdened by debt, stop expanding ideologically and start contracting strategically. If nothing else, this is a guide that helps decipher Trump’s comedic efforts at the podium on the second-term victory tour he’s on.

Grey Swan #5: The European Union Fractures Under the Weight of War, Debt, and Bureaucracy

December 29, 2025 • Addison Wiggin

By 2026, all four supports will demonstrate that they’ve weakened simultaneously. As true as it may or may not be, it’s not likely to be understood, let alone covered by old-school national media.

Debt narrows choices. War hardens politics. False bureaucratic authority substitutes for something, trust, maybe. Nationalists will be more than willing to fill the vacuum.

Europe’s fracture will feel gradual. Policy coherence will erode further. Markets will adapt and look to the Middle and/or Far East to finance the Ponzi finance on display in New York and London.
