Trump’s Gift
to Investors

JAMES ‘WOODY’ WOODBURN

It all happened fast...

A US$6 trillion stock market wipeout... global panic... and the ASX 200 plunging more than 6% in a single day.

And then — just as dramatically — the market roared back...

The S&P 500 soared 9.5% in a single session, its biggest daily gain since 2008.

The ASX 200 also shot up 4.5% — almost clawing back its losses.

All of this happened in the wake of Donald Trump’s bombshell ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs speech... and subsequent announcement of a 90-day tariff pause for most countries... except China.

It’s been absolute CHAOS in the markets since all that kicked off on 2 April.

And nobody’s really sure what’s coming next...

Many — including some of his own political allies — have questioned the policy...

SOURCE: ABC NEWS

Others have called Trump unhinged and out of control.

But what if this is
NONE of those things?

What if it’s all part of a calculated strategy that almost no one understands?

And what if, hidden within this apparent madness, lies one of the greatest wealth-building opportunities of your lifetime?

An opportunity tied to a secret, US$150 trillion American asset that’s about to be unlocked after being sealed away for over a century.

According to intelligence I’ve received from a Washington insider with links to Trump’s inner circle, what we’re witnessing right now is the enactment of a multi-phase plan, devised over the four years Trump has been in the political wilderness...

SOURCE: GZERO

The aim here — and Trump’s said this plenty of times — is to reorder world trade, reshape the global economy, and ‘make America wealthy again’.

And THAT’s what I want to
talk to you about today

Because if we’re right about this, it won’t be just AMERICA getting wealthy...

It could be YOU too!

See, most investors, analysts and journalists are bewildered... blinded by panic... and are missing what’s really happening.

This isn’t a slip-up... or a ‘massive policy blunder’ as Ken Griffin, CEO of major hedge fund Citadel claims.

It’s strategic.

And Trump’s move to selectively pause tariffs for most countries, while maintaining pressure on China — reveals the precision with which he’s executing this strategy.

Applying pressure EXACTLY where he wants it, creating market volatility that serves his broader agenda.

SOURCE: BUSINESS INSIDER

Phase one of this agenda is already underway...

More than 75 countries have now come to the table to negotiate new trade agreements with the US and reduce the tariffs slapped on them by Trump.

But almost no one is
talking about
phase TWO
of this strategy...

While the world freaks out over each new tariff announcement, Trump is quietly preparing to unleash what he calls America’s ‘secret weapon’ — a staggering US$150 trillion bounty that’s been locked away and kept off-limits for decades.

Just days ago, aboard Air Force One, Trump told the gathered press: ‘We’re going to become a wealthy nation again, wealthy like never before...’

SOURCE: THE NEW YORK TIMES

This wasn’t just political rhetoric.

It was a direct reference to his plan to tap this vast, untapped resource and put it to work for the financial benefit of Americans.

If this works — and from what I gather it might — Trump will generate enough money to pay off the US$36 trillion national debt four times over...

...AND create a Sovereign Wealth Fund that could theoretically make every single American family millionaires.

My guest today calls this US$150 trillion bounty a ‘trust fund’... the birthright of every single American citizen.

But how does this affect you,
as an AUSTRALIAN investor?

The answer is simple and potentially life-changing...

While the mainstream media focuses on the tariff drama, you have a rare opening to capitalise on Trump’s US$150 trillion play.

And you don’t need an American passport to do it!

My guest today has identified five specific companies that are positioned to capture massive windfalls as this plan unfolds.

Each has a ticker symbol you should be able to buy through your Australian brokerage account.

Through our exclusive connections, I’ve secured access to intelligence that few outside Trump’s circle are privy to...

...And certainly no one else in Australia, as far as I know, knows ANYTHING about this.

What we’re about to
disclose
puts you way
ahead of the game

And it could help you position yourself to potentially profit enormously as this plan unfolds.

Joining us now to explain Trump’s ‘secret weapon’ is my special guest, Jim Rickards.

Jim has spent his 50-year career in the innermost circles of the US government and banking, making him one of the most politically connected men in America.

• Back in the 1970s, he co-crafted the Petrodollar Accord. A single act which granted the US dollar ‘reserve currency’ status.
• In the 1980s, he helped the US end the Iranian Hostage Crisis.
• In the 1990s, he was summoned by Alan Greenspan to help save America from a 1.9 trillion US dollar banking crisis.
• And in 2007 he testified in front of the US Treasury, warning of a looming financial crisis... Supplying them with a detailed plan to avoid disaster.

We’ve worked with Jim here at Fat Tail Investment Research for more than 13 years now. It’s astonishing how prescient he’s been about world events and their financial consequences.

Jim Rickards — it’s an honour to have you back with us.

JAMES G. ‘JIM’ RICKARDS:

Glad to be with you.

WOODY:

Now, moments before we went ‘on air,’ you told me we’re about to see a profound transfer of wealth.

Yet very few people seem to be talking about this…

JIM:

Right. And there’s good reason for that.

This ‘trust fund’ is not a pile of money to be equally distributed to all citizens.

And it’s not part of a government program or handout.

WOODY:

Interesting. So tell me…

If it’s true the US government is sitting on $150 trillion … how have they kept it quiet for so long?

And how can the average AUSTRALIAN profit?

JIM:

Sure. I can answer those questions — starting with the first one. Why all the secrecy?

Decades ago, the US Congress inserted a key provision in Title 30 of the US Code creating what one could call a ‘national trust fund.’

You can go read the sections 22 to 42 to be exact… it’s pretty dry stuff.

I got my law degree from the University of Pennsylvania. One of the top schools in the nation. I promise you, we never talked about this change to the US code… or this ‘trust fund’… even once.

It’s been this big
secret for years

Yet over time, the estimated size of this fund has grown and grown… to the point where its raw value sits near $150 trillion and counting.

WOODY:

Forgive me — but I’m hung up on the size of this.

$150 trillion?

How?

JIM:

It didn’t start out this way.

But the nature of this ‘trust’ is such that politicians haven’t been able to raid it… which has allowed it to grow untouched… for decades…

WOODY:

A number this big. It’s just… It’s unfathomable.

JIM:

I know… just to put it into perspective…

$150 trillion is enough
to pay off the national debt,
four times over

It’s enough to take a 100% stake in EVERY company listed on the NASDAQ. From NVIDIA, to Google, to Amazon.

And buy EVERY private home in the United States.

If you divide this figure by the number of households in America, each family would get a check for $1.1 million. 

Now of course, none of that is going to happen. I am just trying to point out the sheer magnitude of this situation.

This is not some kind of government program like those COVID relief checks a few years back.

But it is a chance for the average investor — whether in America or Australia — to potentially grow their wealth considerably.

And a chance for a few little-known companies to become household names, in the years ahead.

WOODY:

You know, for all the talk we’ve heard about the US ‘debt ceiling’ and government shutdowns…

I’m surprised no one has
mentioned this ‘trust fund’

The only one we hear about over here in Australia is Social Security.

But this seems different…

JIM:

No, no. This is different. Very different.

The government has raided the Social Security trust fund so many times, it is practically gone.

Even NPR admits, it could run short of cash in just 8 years.

But this ‘National Trust’
is different

If Jimmy Carter… Bill Clinton… Obama or Biden tapped into it?

They would have unleashed a socialist nightmare and destroyed this country.

As luck would have it, they failed for one specific reason, which I’ll share in a moment.

The key thing to know is…

For the first time in our lives, the government is set to unlock this massive asset.

And it all ties to a pivotal decision made by Trump’s Supreme Court.

WOODY:

I’ve got to say that sounds great, on paper. But I have so many questions.

JIM:

I figured you might. Take your time.

WOODY:

Well, assuming everything you’ve said is true… Why would the Trump administration release something so valuable?

JIM:

Well as it turns out, this
has happened before

Back in 1862, America was a young nation. And it needed people to populate the western states.

That’s when President Lincoln signed the ‘Homestead Act.’ Instantly granting any American citizen the right to claim 160 acres of public land for $18.

WOODY:

160 acres for $18!

That’s got to be the ‘deal of the century!’

JIM:

For many it was.

Their $18 investment equates to around $562 today.

While 160 acres of farmland is worth about $900,000.

WOODY:

Wait. So, these people had a chance to make more than 1,000 times their money?

JIM:

Indeed. But there
was a catch...

To get all this ‘free land,’ they had to pack up, move to the middle of nowhere and stay put.

WOODY:

Ah — well. No such thing as a ‘free lunch.’

JIM:

No… And to be clear, this story is not about real estate.

You see…

Despite giving away 10% of all land in the United States…

The government retained the most valuable part. 

For 163 years, it’s held on to it.

But thanks to a recent Supreme Court Decision, it will soon release this vast $150 trillion asset.

And just like we saw with those 160 acres of farmland…

It’s the folks who act on this
opportunity first who will have
the chance at the biggest profit

WOODY:

And who might that be?

JIM:

Firms that get a jump on this, and the investors who back them could come out way ahead.

Only in this case, you don’t have to uproot your family. Or endure months of back-breaking labour.

With a small investment, you could set your family up for a wealthier future...

WOODY:

All that sounds incredible.

But there’s a hole in
this story…

What is this ‘American endowment’. And where is the money coming from?

Far as I know, your government isn’t writing million-dollar cheques. Or giving away land.

JIM:

You’re right…

President Trump is freeing up something far more valuable than land. On a scale we’ve never seen.

WOODY:

Before we get to that…

I’m wondering where on earth could the US government store such a huge endowment.

At the Federal Reserve?

JIM:

No. The Fed manages about $6.8 trillion in assets.  Which is nothing compared to this.

Take a look…

It’s held on deposit across all 50 states. 

$516 billion is in the Salton Sea area of California…

$3.1 trillion is held in Nome, Alaska.

And $7.35 trillion is in Midland, Texas…

WOODY:

Woah... more than $7 trillion in Texas alone?

But how do we know the US government didn’t just sell it off?

You know Jim… I was just thinking about Ft. Knox.

It holds 147 million ounces of US gold reserves. 

But is it still there?

I read there hasn’t been an audit since what…

JIM:

Since 1953.

Oh, I see what you’re getting at. How do we know this $150 trillion endowment still exists?

Woody, I can’t vouch for the gold at Ft. Knox.

But this ‘national trust’ is different.

Unlike a stash of gold, they can’t sell it off with the push of a button.

That’s a key reason why it has grown, untouched for so long. 

But I believe all that’s about to change.

WOODY:

Now we’re getting somewhere

So we’re NOT talking about a pile of stocks… cash… bonds… real estate or gold bars.

JIM:

That’s right…

And it’s not an actual ‘trust fund’ or ‘endowment’ like you’ve seen before. So it’s not earmarked for any specific individual.

That’s why very few people know about this.

It’s so big, it’s hard to put into words.

So I’m using terms like this to put it in perspective… and help you and the folks there in Australia understand the scale of this opportunity.

And here’s the thing…

If you’re over age 50, even if you’re in Australia, what happens next could be your final chance to make a significant impact on your wealth.

That’s why it’s critical you know what’s happening and how you can give yourself the opportunity to profit.

WOODY:

I’m beginning to see the big picture.

But if this endowment is as HUGE as you say… why have so few people heard about it?

JIM:

It’s beyond the imagination of most people — including most officials employed by the Federal government.

But investors who stake even a modest claim — with a small investment — could see a big impact on their wealth in the years ahead.

There will be surprising
political effects as well

WOODY:

Political effects. What do you mean by that?

JIM:

Donald Trump could become a national hero… one of the most powerful Presidents in memory.

I won’t be surprised if his face gets chiselled into Mt. Rushmore...

Or immortalised on the new $1,000 bill.

WOODY:

Trump?

On par with Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt?

JIM:

Look Woody, I can tell from the look on your face, what you’re thinking…

WOODY:

It seems crazy!

But that’s why I invited you to join us.

We’ve worked together for more than 13 years now.

In that time we’ve heard dozens of ‘off-the-wall’ predictions... and we’ve done our best to poke holes in them.

But when we went back over YOUR record, Jim…

An astounding number of your predictions have proven RIGHT.

Few believed you back in 2008 when you warned of a looming stock market crash. But that’s precisely what happened. US Stocks cratered 53%.

Then in 2016, you said Trump would become the next US President. At the time, polls gave him a 1–2% chance.  But again, you were right.

Then came 2020…

We all know what happened that year. But few people saw it coming. And hardly anyone listened when you warned of the coming pandemic and lockdowns.

When it comes to President Trump — you’ve been flawless.

You were one of a few people who knew he’d become President in 2016.

And last year, you predicted he’d win in an electoral landslide. Including the exact number of electoral votes he’d receive. It’s uncanny.

But your latest call? It’s something else.

JIM:

I don’t blame you if you think my new prediction sounds a bit crazy.

Like I said, no one has a reference point for this.

Because nothing like it has happened in more than a century.

Now this might sound like it’s
coming out of left field…

But I promise it will all make sense in a minute.

Do you remember when Trump spoke about new American cities?

WOODY:

I remember hearing something like that — but perhaps you could explain it for our Aussie viewers...

JIM:

No problem Woody.

A year or so ago Trump mentioned America could build as many as 10 new ‘Freedom Cities.’

He said:

‘These freedom cities will reopen the frontier, reignite American imagination, and give hundreds of thousands of young people and other people, all hardworking families, a new shot at home ownership and in fact, the American dream.’

And this all ties back to our national ‘endowment.’

Of course, CNN made fun of his plan, calling it ‘light on details.’

And Forbes piled on too, saying:

‘There are a lot of problems
with this idea.’

Not surprising…

Because these people rarely stop to think. All they do is parrot political talking points.

But have you ever wondered…

Where did the great American cities come from?

I’m not talking about colonial New York, Philadelphia or DC.

Why did so many new cities spring to life during the 19th and early 20th century?

San Francisco and Denver…

Houston… Salt Lake City… and Birmingham.

And why would so many people leave everyone they knew, to move hundreds to thousands of miles away?

It all ties back to the story
I’m sharing with you today…

San Francisco was a sleepy village of less than 300 people for decades.

It didn’t become a city until the gold rush of 1849.  And tens of thousands of speculators joined the fray.

Birmingham, Alabama was a quiet cotton-picking district. Until we discovered vast deposits of iron, coal and copper in the 1870s.  Overnight, it became known as ‘The Magic City.’

Denver was sparsely populated until the late 1800s.

Then, it burst to life, thanks to gold fever and the birth of the transcontinental railroad.

Houston was known as ‘Mexican Texas.’  But all that changed in 1901 — with the discovery of the giant oil field, Spindletop. 

An explosion of mineral wealth rained down over our nation…

And anyone of modest
means could stake a claim
and strike it rich

WOODY:

Jim, I get it. This idea of a ‘gold rush’ is embedded in Australian culture too.

What happened in Ballarat, Bendigo, Kalgoorlie and towns like these in the 1850s left a lasting impact on our economy and culture.

But I’ve got to be honest.

Everyone I know who’s making REAL money? They’ve bought and held STOCKS for decades… or made a fast buck trading crypto or AI stocks... 

JIM:

You’re right Woody. And I know it’s different in Australia, but we Americans haven’t seen a REAL mining boom in our lifetime.

The last time it happened in my part of the world?

So many people cashed in… a phrase was invented to describe it:

‘Rags to riches’

And now, it’s about to happen, once again.

These seemingly obscure minerals… from gold to copper and silver to lithium.

They’re the building blocks of everything from NVIDIA Chips to advanced military weapons… to Chat GPT… to the new ‘Freedom Cities’ Trump has proposed.

WOODY:

When you put it that way, I guess ‘new cities’ don’t seem so crazy.

JIM:

Right, and to be clear, you don’t have to ‘move’ anywhere to take advantage of this opportunity. Nor do you need a US passport. Australian investors can get involved too.

WOODY:

That’s a relief.

But there’s one thing I
can’t wrap my head around...

Why haven’t any new US cities sprung up since the early 1900s?

JIM:

That’s a great question…

With a simple answer.

It takes vast amounts of wealth to build a new city.

Not just dollars and cents. REAL mineral wealth. The building blocks of life.

And unfortunately, the government got in the way.

For the past 50 years, or so… just like in Australia...

Washington backed all kinds of crazy things, from electric cars and solar panels to offshore windmill farms.

All in the hope that these technologies would ‘save the planet.’

But they’ve been a disaster

They cost us trillions of dollars and make next to zero impact on the climate. 

And they made it next to impossible to tap into our vast resources, here in the US.

One former insider at the Department of the Interior says…

‘[We have] all these essential materials right under our feet. Incredibly, insanely, however the United States is the only nation in the world that locks them up.’    

WOODY:

Thankfully things are different here in Australia. But just so I’m right: all these minerals were ‘locked up’ by insane environmentalists — for decades?

JIM:

Woody, it’s been crazy
over here...

Obama and Biden chose to protect plants… birds… and fish instead of protecting and enriching the American public.

WOODY:

Alright. I mean, I’m all for a clean environment. But what kind of person would sacrifice his family for the sake of a bird or a plant or a fish?

JIM:

Look, I appreciate the unspoiled beauty of nature too. But these people are mentally ill.

To protect the ‘environment’ they destroyed our middle class. They shipped our key industries overseas.  Then bottled-up America’s most valuable resources.

Capital Research reports:

‘Unbelievable as it may seem, an area larger than 25 of the 27 states east of the Mississippi is no longer accessible for mineral exploration, much less mining.’

That’s equal to every square mile of ALL these states, COMBINED!

So, all this time — we’ve had
this rich
‘endowment’
right under our feet

Yet for years, we refused to touch it.

WOODY:

You know, when you put it that way… I can’t help but think of Norway. For years, it’s tapped into its own oil and gas fields and passed the wealth on to its people.

JIM:

That’s right. Norway’s endowment has around $350,000 set aside for every man, woman and child.

You can find similar sovereign wealth funds in Saudi Arabia, Iran and the UAE.

Same goes for Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Thanks to its vast oil endowment, its citizens receive everything from interest-free mortgages to free healthcare . To 11-cent gasoline. 

And believe it or not, they pay ZERO personal income taxes.

WOODY:

I wish you hadn’t mentioned that. It seems unfair.  

JIM:

Well, things might be about to
change here in the US…

Recently Trump established a Sovereign Wealth Fund for America. Something that has NEVER happened before.

Now, I’m not saying the government will give any of this money to US citizens, directly.

No one knows how they’ll use this Fund. Or what will go inside it.

But there are clues.

Recently, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said, ‘We’re going to monetize the asset side of the US balance sheet.’

Again, this has NEVER happened before.

What could he mean by that?

Well, our mineral endowment alone is worth more than $150 trillion.

Contrast that with America’s Social Security fund, which is set to run out of cash by 2033.

Just 8 years from now. 

WOODY:

That’s insane.

And it DOES make the news over on this side of the world — how US Social Security has become a kind of ‘Ponzi scheme’.

Will this new Sovereign Wealth Fund help fix this?

JIM:

There’s no telling how he’ll deploy this fund. Anything is possible. We’ll just have to wait and see.

But Woody, if you think Social Security running out of money is insane, brace yourself…

Because guess who
profits from this mess?

CHINA!

In addition to taking most of our manufacturing jobs…

The US government admits…

We rely on China for 100% of 20 key minerals. 

These are critical to everything from NVIDIA’s AI Chips to Elon Musk’s EVs, robots and satellites… to advanced military weaponry like F-16 fighters and drones. Practically every device with an ‘on’ button.

And late last year, China cut us off!

WOODY:

Cut you off in what way?

JIM:

China blocked the export of these critical minerals to the United States.

Meaning if we don’t act...

The entire US economy
could tip into crisis

This reminds me of the 1970s, and the Arab Oil Embargo.

Back then, I was working with the Nixon administration. I was part of an elite team plotting a secret take-over of Saudi Arabia’s oil fields. It was our plan-B if they didn’t agree to our demands.

Anyway… I bring this up because the same kind of thing is happening today in the market for critical minerals.

Which is why Trump is moving fast to unlock this $150 trillion endowment.

WOODY:

Wow — I mean — you put it that way, it’s no wonder.

So to recap: America is sitting on a fortune. All the resources you could possibly need.

And meanwhile…

Your leaders have acted like the US is broke!

Borrowing and printing money to fund the government. And going cap-in-hand to China.

JIM:

Yes — but all that stops now.

Recently, Trump said:

‘There are certain areas where we have great, raw earth. And we’re not allowed to use it because of the environment. We have areas that have incredible [resources] and I’m going to open them up. I’m going to let them use it.’

So today, for the first time in a century, he’s re-opening our mineral-rich Federal Lands.

And fast-tracking companies that will recover trillions of dollars’ worth of resources, right here in America.

You can see on this map — the shaded area — it belongs to the public.

It adds up to roughly 28% of all land in the US. About 90% of this land is concentrated out west. And it contains world-class mineral deposits, many of which have never been touched.

WOODY:

Well judging by what we’ve learned so far, Jim, it’s about time America tapped into this treasure!

There’s just one problem

JIM:

And what’s that?

WOODY:

Trump’s already served a full term as President.

And he failed to unlock this US$150 trillion endowment.

He couldn’t get the Keystone Pipeline approved.

Or greenlight Alaska’s famous Pebble Mine.

He didn’t resurrect the American coal industry … or expand offshore drilling.

So what’s changed?

JIM:

You’re right…

Most people don’t realize…

Trump was sabotaged
from day one

His first two years in office were wasted fighting the ‘fake Russian hoax.’

His third year was destroyed by a ‘fake’ impeachment trial concocted by the intelligence community and liars like Adam Schiff.

His fourth year was consumed by the COVID pandemic and the collapse of both the stock market and the economy.

WOODY:

So he never had a chance to do things HIS way.

JIM:

Right. But this time is different.

Recently, his Supreme Court made a pivotal decision.

I don’t want to get into the weeds.

But for decades, there’s been a law on the books.

‘The Chevron Doctrine’

But it’s clear to me, its purpose was to prevent businesses from operating in America.

Have you ever wondered what happened to the US shipbuilding industry? Our consumer electronics industry? Clothing and furniture makers? America used to be a bustling economy — full of hard working, innovative businesses.

But most of them disappeared…

Thanks to a web of insane rules and regulations.

WOODY:

Right. Most of them outsourced their labour to China. 

JIM:

And why does everything seem
to be ‘Made in China?’

If you ever wondered why it’s so cheap to make a product way over there… and ship it thousands of miles back to America… this is it. They don’t have all this red tape.

For the past 50 years, fake-experts have strangled Americans from within the government. They tied us down with reams of regulation. And they ushered in one boondoggle after another.

Like the ‘Green New Scam.’

So they hollowed out our economy… And we wound up with toilets that can’t flush… gas cans that don’t work… shower heads that barely spit water… and annoying paper straws that disintegrate in your mouth. 

And these same bone-headed policies? They gave agencies like the EPA ‘kill shot’ power to stop any mining project they wanted, at any time, for any reason.

Look…

Recently, S&P Global put together a list of the top mining countries on earth… based on how long it takes to tap a major deposit. 

And guess where the
United States ranks?

WOODY:

Well, you’re the richest nation in the world, so I’m guessing somewhere near the top.

JIM:

No!

We came in second-last.

One notch above poverty-stricken Zambia.

WOODY:

You’ve got to be kidding!

JIM:

Think about this…

When it comes to extracting rare and priceless minerals…

America is slightly better than one of the poorest nations on earth!

We have truly massive mineral wealth here. It’s not hard to extract. We know where it is. And how to get it.

But the government
got in the way

WOODY:

That’s just… brutal.

JIM:

You have no idea Woody…

There’s a huge copper deposit in Arizona.  It’s called Resolution Mine. And it’s been sitting there for 29 years.  It’s got enough copper to supply 25% of what we need in America.

Then there’s the infamous Pebble Mine in Alaska. It’s one of the greatest sources of mineral wealth ever discovered.  Yet it’s been mothballed since 1990!

Or how about this…

The Thacker Pass Lithium Mine in Nevada is the largest known deposit of its kind in the US.

Guess how long it’s been stuck — waiting for US government approval?

WOODY:

I don’t know. 25 years? 30?

JIM:

It’s been shut down since 1978!

WOODY:

That’s crazy.

JIM:

It’s beyond crazy. It’s criminal. They have deprived Americans of OUR birthright.

But now…

That’s all about to change.

WOODY:

What’s changed, exactly?

JIM:

Last year, Trump’s Supreme Court overturned the Chevron Doctrine. 

Most people have never
heard of this policy

Like I said, it essentially gave so-called government experts ‘kill shot’ power.

And they used it again and again to block us from touching dozens of world-class resource deposits across the country.

But all that’s over now.

We know exactly where these minerals are. We know they’re worth trillions of dollars.

Now… for the first time in half a century — we can go get them!

Not only is the Chevron Doctrine dead.

But its vast power now lies with the Trump administration… its courts and judges.

WOODY:

OK, so this is the huge land-rush you’re talking about. And perhaps, the core of Trump’s new Sovereign Wealth Fund.

But Jim —

Can the United States
government
extract
these minerals?

JIM:

Of course not.

These are public lands.

But to unleash all this mineral wealth, the government is turning to investors.

In fact, Trump is rolling out the red carpet, as we speak.

WOODY:

This is from one of his recent posts on Truth Social:

‘Any person or company investing ONE BILLION DOLLARS, OR MORE, in the United States of America, will receive fully expedited approvals and permits, including, but in no way limited to, all Environmental approvals. GET READY TO ROCK!!!’

One billion dollars or more?

JIM:

But look…

YOU don’t have to be a billionaire or a millionaire to profit from this opportunity. And as I said earlier, you don’t have to be a US citizen, either.

I’ve found a backdoor way Australians could profit from mineral rights tied to the most valuable untapped deposits in America.

In fact, you could get
started with $500 or less

WOODY:

Mineral rights? As an investment?

JIM:

That’s right.

Recently Trump’s Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick said:

‘[We’re] going to rename The Department of the Interior… The Department of Land and Mineral Rights.’

Why is that?

Because for the first time in our lifetime, the government is going to monetize America’s real, physical wealth.

Not just our gold reserves. But all our Federal Lands and along with the priceless metals and resources hidden under the surface.

And if my research proves correct, investors who tap into this opportunity could make a significant impact on their wealth.

No one alive has seen
anything like this before

I project we will see 50 years of trapped mineral wealth unleashed in a single presidential term.

For investors…

It’s a chance to cram decades worth of high potential investing opportunities into just four years.

WOODY:

I can see what you’re saying. But can ANYONE get in on this — even our Australian viewers?

The whole idea of owning US mineral rights… it sounds complicated to an investor over here.

JIM:

Right. Well, don’t worry.

I’m not talking about doing anything complicated like directly owning the rights. You don’t have to be rich or an accredited investor.

It’s as simple as owning shares
of a few specific stocks

In fact, there are five ticker symbols you can type into any Australian brokerage account that will give you a stake in five companies I believe could skyrocket in the years ahead.

Each with the potential to multiply your investment during Trump’s second term. Conservatively speaking…

WOODY:

And what makes their mineral rights so valuable?

JIM:

Sure…

Let’s pretend you own the rights to a huge copper deposit. Copper, by the way, is one of the most critical metals used in the production of AI chips, by companies like NVIDIA. 

Alright. So you’re sitting on a $50 billion copper deposit.

How much are your rights worth?

WOODY:

I have no idea... how much?

JIM:

Well, it depends.

During the Biden administration… you had to deal with all kinds of roadblocks and red tape. 

WOODY:

In other words, my copper deposit was off-limits.

JIM:

That’s right.

WOODY:

OK. In that case, my mineral rights could be worth a LOT less.

JIM:

Much less. Pennies on the dollar.

But soon, the same mineral rights could be worth a fortune!

And this is not a hypothetical...

This is precisely what happened with a company called First Quantum.

Back in the early 2000s, the Zambian government approved its Kanganshi Copper Mine.

And its shares exploded from 84 cents to more than $22.  That’s a gain of 2,583%.

WOODY:

That’s an incredible return.

JIM:

Keep in mind, it took place over five years. But this just goes to show what’s possible when the feds get out of the way.

I could show you
dozens of examples

Take Northern Dynasty. Back in 2002 the government allowed it to acquire a 100% stake in Alaska’s vast Pebble Project.  In the span of five years, its shares leapt from 50 cents to almost $15.

WOODY:

What’s that… 3,000% or more? You don’t see that very often.

JIM:

Well, in rare moments like this, anything is possible.

There’s a firm called Paladin. You’d know them Woody, they’re an Australian uranium miner with a massive property in Namibia. 

Same story.

At one point, you could have bought shares for less than 15 cents, adjusted for splits.

But when the government approved this mine — it raced to $92. Roughly 61,000% higher, in four years.

WOODY:

Ok… one second. If my maths is right, that’s enough to turn a $500 stake into around $300,000!

JIM:

Now you’re getting it!

This is what makes today’s situation so unusual.

And potentially profitable.

Now it goes without saying, these are ‘best case scenarios.’

Most people aren’t going to get in at the absolute bottom and sell at the top. And to be clear, there are no guarantees that the stocks I tell you about today will go up at all.

You could lose money. So don’t invest more than you are prepared to lose.

These examples just go to show what’s possible.

We’ve rarely seen an opportunity like this.

Just think of it…

For decades…

The US government has blocked Americans from tapping into our birthright. Trillions of dollars’ of minerals and metals, locked away under American soil.

But today, for the first time in half a century, Trump is shredding the government’s crazy rules and regulations.

His massive 10-to-1 deregulation initiative is sure to clear the way for miners and drillers to finally access America’s untapped resources.

His Supreme Court has reversed a decades long ban.

And he’s issued multiple executive orders to unlock our vast energy resources.  And establish America’s first Sovereign Wealth Fund.

That’s why I believe five companies that own these mineral rights could be about to soar!

WOODY:

Again — sounds great on paper.

But what can regular
Australians do about it?

JIM:

I’ve found an indirect way to invest in some of the most valuable mineral deposits in America. Even if you live in Australia and have less than $500 to invest.

And I’ve had my research team put it all together in one easy-to-follow report.

It’s called ‘TRUMP’S GIFT TO INVESTORS’. And today, we’re making it available to anyone watching in Australia.

All I ask is you join forces and take a look at my work.

WOODY:

OK. Tell us a bit more about your research.

JIM:

You know...

For years, I’ve given advice to members of Trump’s cabinet

I’ve been inside the West Wing of the White House… the Treasury… and our central bank, the Federal Reserve.

I’ve attended private gatherings with people close to the President.

And these inside connections have given me a rare window into his second term.

So each month, we take everything we’ve learned and break it all down into a simple update.

In the past year, we’ve covered everything from the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and the US military…

...To the potential for a new gold standard to the hidden effects of major elections on our economy and stock market.

I’ve got to tell you, Woody...

When people see what’s coming next?

They’re going to be shocked

WOODY:

So in this first report — TRUMP’S GIFT TO INVESTORS — I take it that’s where you’ve put all your thinking and research into this massive US$150 trillion endowment?

JIM:

That’s correct.

Inside, Australian Investment Director Nick Hubble has listed the name and ticker symbol of five companies he and I believe are positioned to profit…

As Trump unleashes all this pent-up wealth, locked within Federal Lands, and launches America’s first-ever Sovereign Wealth Fund.

Keep in mind…

We haven’t seen anything like
this in more than a century

The last time the government allowed regular folks to tap into our vast endowment was 1872. 

That’s when Congress and President Ulysses S. Grant changed Title 30 of the US Code and established this secret trust for the American people.

Back then, anyone could make a claim.

All you had to do was pay $2 to $5 per acre… and do a minimal amount of work.

Again, so many people cashed in on this… a phrase was invented to describe it: ‘rags to riches.’ 

But then, the doors slammed shut.

What excites me today is…

We finally have a similar asymmetrical opportunity in the stock market. Where a small investment could ultimately grow many times over.

Of course there are no guarantees, so you should never invest more than you can stand to lose.

But hear me when I tell you: This could be the opportunity of a lifetime.

That’s why billionaires from Bill Gates to Jeff Bezos are pouring a fortune into this corner of the market.

Chances are, they see what Trump is doing.

So they’re moving a mountain of money to get in front of this trend.

But in this case, regular investors have an advantage.

WOODY:

WE have an advantage
over Bezos and Gates?

How is that possible?

JIM:

The big guys are too wealthy to meaningfully invest.

To put it in perspective there’s one company that controls the one of the most valuable copper deposits on earth.

With a TOTAL market cap around $400 million.

WOODY:

That doesn’t seem small.

JIM:

It’s miniscule, compared to Jeff Bezos’s net worth of $255 billion. 

He could invest one-tenth of 1% of his wealth…

And take over the whole company!

Which doesn’t leave much upside.

To put that in perspective…

Imagine you have a net worth of $200,000.

But the most you can invest is $300.

Even if it doubled or tripled… or 10x’ — it wouldn’t change your life.

WOODY:

Ah. Now I see.

So, a guy like Bezos has his hands tied. It would be like me putting in $300 and making $3,000. A fantastic return — but it’s not going to change my life. 

JIM:

Right. And this is why I say small investors have an edge.

But only if you ACT on this
knowledge, to begin with

WOODY:

OK — we’ll share how to do that, in a moment. But a minute ago you upped the ante, Jim.

You said, and I quote, ‘People are going to be shocked in the months to come.’

What did you mean by that?

JIM:

Well, what I’ve shared with you today is just the beginning.

We are entering a new era.

And this all has to do with Trump’s great rally cry: MAGA.

WOODY:

Make America Great Again.

JIM:

That’s what it stands for — but few people know what it means or what Trump is planning next.

Because, in addition to unlocking our vast $150 trillion mineral endowment — I believe Trump is going to reset the clock on our republic.

And return the US to something known as:

The ‘American System’

WOODY:

The American System? How is that different from how things work over there today?

JIM:

The American System dates to the late 1700s. And it was supported by George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, all the way up to Dwight Eisenhower.

WOODY:

And what does this system look like?

JIM:

I’m sure you’ve heard Trump talk about getting rid of the IRS. And axing the income tax. 

It turns out…

We didn’t have an income tax for much of our history.  Instead, the government drew revenue from tariffs.

WOODY:

Tariffs instead of taxes?

That’s a pillar of Trump’s policy, right?

He recently announced a bunch of them and the markets lost their collective minds... even down here in Australia!

JIM:

Right.

Recently, Trump said,

‘It’s time for the United States to return to the system that made us richer and more powerful than ever before.’

WOODY:

The ‘American system?’

JIM:

Correct.

That’s why Trump has proposed a new agency called the External Revenue Service.

A new branch of Treasury focused on protecting American jobs and raising revenue by taxing our trade partners, instead of the American public.

And it could reshape the global
economy in the months ahead

WOODY:

OK — what else should we expect with this new system? Or should I say ‘old’ system…

JIM:

I’ve asked my team to assemble all our research into a second special report. You’ll find everything you need to know inside.

It’s called Inside Trump’s Secret Plan to ‘Reset’ America.

WOODY:

A moment ago, you mentioned this could rewire the global economy…

Can you share
what that means?

JIM:

Of course.

As a result of all these new tariffs — we believe three US-listed energy stocks could really take off.

Trump has opened the door to revive the Keystone XL pipeline.  I’m sure you heard about this — it’s been a political football for years. Biden and Obama did everything short of nuking it.  But now it could become a reality.

Trump is also planning to refill America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

I’m guessing most of the Australian folks reading this don’t realize how insane Biden’s policies were. During his presidency he drained a record 180 million barrels! 

That’s more than the previous
SIX Presidents combined

To refill our stockpile, Trump’s going to increase oil production here at home.

And that’s only the start.

As we return to the American System — we’re going to see a whole lot more than oil and gas produced in America.

Trump’s plan is to increase US oil production by 3 million barrels per day.  

But we’re not recommending you buy any of the US oil majors.

You see, there’s a huge bottleneck in the system. We don’t have enough refining capacity. 

And the more oil we produce, the more profits could flow to one specific company.

You’ll hear all about it in our report:

Trump’s Secret Plan
to ‘Reset’ America

As you’ll see, this story goes way beyond oil and gas…

Trump is applying immense pressure on US companies to re-shore the production of everything from auto parts to AI chips.

It’s all coming back.  

WOODY:

So is it fair to say there are two paths here? Companies that re-shore jobs to America will thrive… while those that refuse will get hit hard?

JIM:

Precisely right.

So, in addition to our report on Trump’s new American System — I’ve asked my team to put together a vital report on the companies most likely to LOSE under this scenario.

If you own the wrong stocks now, you could suffer a huge loss as Trump returns America to its roots.

In the weeks and months ahead, their shareholders could be wiped out.

That’s why I asked Nick Hubble to compile all the key details…

Including the three most popular companies out there that could crash 30–50%... or even go to zero.

Three popular companies
popped up in our search

I consider them ticking time bombs that are sitting inside millions of brokerage accounts…

Nick put all the details inside another special report called Trump’s Takedown Trade: 3 Stocks to Sell, Immediately.

If you have even one of these in your portfolio…

This is your chance to get out, before it’s too late.

WOODY:

OK — so to recap, you’ve compiled three investment reports our Australian viewers can claim today:

• Trump’s Gift to Investors...
• Trump’s Secret Plan to ‘Reset’ America...
• Trump’s Takedown Trade: 3 Stocks to Sell, Immediately

JIM:

Yes, that’s it.

We’ve raced to assemble these
reports for good reason...

Massive changes are coming.

And most people are going to be caught off-guard.

That’s why I want to give folks watching a chance to claim these reports, along with full access to the project I’ve been working on with Nick called Strategic Intelligence Australia.

WOODY:

Can you give us a little background on that?

JIM:

Happy to…

The whole point of Strategic Intelligence Australia is…

We want to help you understand and profit from the vast and often unseen forces shaping the global economy and stock market… through Trump’s second term — and beyond.

What will happen after
Trump regains
control of
the Panama Canal?

Or negotiates a deal to make Greenland a US Territory?

What assets will be funnelled into America’s new Sovereign Wealth Fund? And how can you benefit from Australia?

Through our research you’ll see what’s coming, weeks to months before it becomes common knowledge down under.

WOODY:

I love that — it’s like you’re giving Australians a look behind the scenes of what’s really happening.

JIM:

That’s exactly what we do

Each month, you’ll receive a new issue filled with ideas and strategies to help you protect and grow your wealth.

In the past year, we’ve covered everything from…

Supreme Court Decisions to the Dismantling of the Deep State…

To the race for AI supremacy and opportunities to profit from it.

Before Strategic Intelligence, I only provided this kind of research to my high-net-worth clients and members of the US Intelligence Community.

But now, you can have the chance to hear my best ideas on an ongoing basis.

WOODY:

So Jim, if I’m understanding this… you’re giving our viewers a chance to look over all the reports you mentioned...

...Under no obligation whatsoever?

JIM:

That’s right. All we ask in return is that you take a three month subscription to Strategic Intelligence Australia…

When you do, Nick will immediately send you all the special reports I’ve mentioned.

WOODY:

Sounds great, Jim. Can you fill us in on the details and let us know how much all this costs?

JIM:

Happy to.

Membership to my newsletter typically sells for $299 per year.

WOODY:

Jim Rickards — I want to thank you for joining us. This has been an invaluable experience.

I was wondering, do you have a few more minutes to spare?

We’ve received dozens of questions… and a few of them are so good, I wish I had asked them, myself.

I’ve got a couple more minutes but sure. Go ahead.

WOODY:

OK — so for the people at home, there’s a button at the foot of this page. If you scroll down and click it, then follow a few simple instructions you’ll get instant access to Jim’s research.

Jim, I want to respect your time. So I’m going to move through these questions, fast.

JIM:

Fire when ready…
(BONUS Q&A WITH
JIM RICKARDS)

WOODY:

First one:

Why hasn’t this American ‘trust fund’ been
widely reported on by the mainstream media, or
any US government agencies that we know of?

JIM:

Oh it’s definitely been reported on. But mostly in a negative light. Unfortunately, most liberals don’t seem to like mining. Which is ironic! Their whole ‘green transition’ would require massive amounts of new minerals. And they don’t just fall out of the sky.

But we’ve already established the fact
most of those people are insane

To answer the second part — I think you asked, why haven’t government agencies reported on this.

Well, the US Geological Survey does indeed report on the vast store of wealth locked on our Federal Lands.

But they don’t look at it from a financial standpoint. They’re basically a bunch of rock-kickers. It’s hard to listen to what they say without falling asleep!

And if you somehow manage to find their reports, you’d get lost in a sea of data. But to be clear, the $150 trillion endowment as I like to call it is well documented. It’s just been trapped in place for decades.

WOODY:

Well said. OK — moving along. We’ve got another question here.

This one is a bit of a curveball...

How does unlocking this trust fund
not trigger
hyperinflation or
devalue the US dollar?

JIM:

Oh I love this question.

Whoever asked this has a keen grasp on history. In the past, when gold was money — any significant gold discovery would literally expand the supply of money. Which is, of course, inflationary.

But today, there’s not a single currency on earth that’s backed by anything of real or lasting value. So I don’t think this would be ‘hyper-inflationary’ in any sense of the word.

You could argue a greater supply of gold or other minerals could push their price down in dollar terms. But that’s only if demand remains the same.

All my sources indicate soaring demand for these minerals in the months ahead

WOODY:

OK — I know you said you only had a few minutes, Jim. And I don’t want to abuse that.

Do you have time for two more?

JIM:

Sure — just two then I have to get going.

WOODY:

OK here we go...

How does this compare to existing sovereign
wealth funds in places like Norway or Saudi
Arabia? What makes the US version different?

JIM:

Fascinating question!

It’s too early to tell what Trump will put in America’s Sovereign Wealth Fund.

But every other fund of its kind that I know of has included a massive stockpile of commodities. Or cash equivalents.

The big question is — will America follow in the footsteps of Saudi Arabia? Will we offer subsidized, interest-free mortgages?

Will we use this windfall to slash taxes or get rid of the income tax, entirely? Nobody knows.

But what I find exciting is… anything is possible, within reason.

You’ve got to remember Norway, Saudi Arabia — these are miniscule countries when you compare their population to the US.

And that’s why I’m advising the folks watching to tap into this stream of wealth...

...By owning a select
group of stocks

We can’t know what the government will do with this huge source of revenue. But it’s likely companies that tap into this long locked-up wealth will come out way ahead.

WOODY:

That’s enlightening. Thanks again, Jim.

OK — this is it. In the interests of time — last question...

If these mineral rights are so valuable, why aren’t major institutional investors already pouring money into them?

JIM:

Oh they absolutely are!

That’s a great point. One I neglected to make.

You know Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway of course. Well they’ve continued to scoop up shares of Occidental Petroleum.

In fact, they now own 28% of the company, which has huge interests in expanding oil production in the US.

And then there’s PIMCO, the huge bond manager. It’s making some big moves this year.

The Wall Street Journal reports it has snapped up 354 million shares of a natural gas exporter called Venture Global. 

One more I know of is Elliot Management.

They invested $1 billion in Anglo American — a mining firm that was once involved with the infamous Pebble Project in Alaska — which has been blocked from production for many years.

So yes, wealthy investors and institutions are involved. But like I mentioned before — there’s not an incentive for them to own smaller, publicly-traded companies the way you and I can.

Like Warren Buffett once said… if I had only $1 million to invest instead of $200 billion, I could earn an annual 50% return.

And that’s why smaller investors
almost always
have more upside

WOODY:
