Dear Reader,

Could Donald Trump be about to reinstate the gold standard?

That’s what we’re hearing from Washington insider Jim Rickards — and the implications for investors here in Australia could be staggering…

...

Source: Yahoo News

In this presentation, you’ll see how the US is quietly laying the groundwork to tie the dollar back to gold for the first time since 1971.

The deadline they’ve set for the completion of this plan is July 4, 2026 — America’s 250th birthday.

Now, if Jim’s right about the intelligence he’s received…

He says gold could surge beyond US$20,000 per ounce — six times today's price.

...

And that gives you
a big opportunity…

One that puts you ahead of many other investors and certainly most here in Australia.

In the presentation that follows, Jim will reveal a ‘backdoor’ play into a little-known US company at the centre of this opportunity

I’ve been working with Jim on bringing this intelligence to Australian investors.

I think he’s come up with a genius play…

The company he’s found has developed technology that could literally transform the gold mining industry — at a time when the yellow metal could be about to resume a critical role in the financial system.

Now, for reasons Jim will explain, this company is currently off-limits to Australian investors.

In fact, it’s off-limits to most US investors too, outside of a small, privileged circle.

But we’ve found a way you CAN get exposure…

In fact, if you have an Australian brokerage account, it’s easier for you to invest in this opportunity than anyone else in the world.

The timing couldn't
be better…

Gold has been on an upward tear for four years now, as investors have reacted to…

  • Market uncertainty during the COVID era…
  • The global inflation crisis…
  • Aggressive interest rate hikes, and…
  • Geopolitical flashpoints in Ukraine, the Middle East and Kashmir.

More recently we’ve seen unprecedented buying from central banks worldwide, stockpiling gold at the fastest rate in decades…

…And Donald Trump's April 2 tariff announcements, which only accelerated what was already in motion in the gold price.

As I record this, the spot price is up 20% in Australian dollar terms since the beginning of the year… and it’s doubled in the last three years.

This is great for holders of bullion — and even better for some of our Aussie-listed gold miners — who have benefitted much more from the underlying strength in gold.

Genesis Minerals [ASX:GMD] is up 55%

...

And Gold Road Resources [ASX:GOR] has soared 58% since January alone.

...

Many of my followers have also benefitted from gold’s rise this year.

In May they had the opportunity to bank a 125% gain from a physical gold ETF holding…

...

…And a 153% gain from gold producer Vault Minerals [ASX:VAU].

...

It certainly feels like a

bull market in motion.

But as impressive as all this has been, Jim Rickards says we might be just at the starting line.

As you’re about to see, Jim’s sources indicate that Trump could be preparing to make a move that would fundamentally transform the global monetary system…

…Potentially reinstating elements of the gold standard that could send the gold price soaring far beyond its current level.

Now you might be thinking — well, great: I’ll just load up on physical gold.

Well, before you do that, please take a look at Jim’s presentation that follows directly after this.

You’re about to discover a much more interesting and strategic way to play this development…

…Something that could have far greater wealth generating potential than simply buying the physical metal.

What makes this opportunity truly unique is how it combines two powerful forces:

The surging gold market, and the artificial intelligence revolution that's transforming how we discover and extract gold.

“AI is transforming the mining industry and becoming an increasingly important component at various stages of the production process.”

S&P GLOBAL

“For an industry rich in data, AI has the potential to optimise processes and improve performance across the mining value chain — from mineral extraction to customer delivery.”

BHP

The company Jim has identified operates at this critical juncture, backed by some of the world's most prominent billionaires.

It’s not a conventional gold miner, nor is it a typical tech play.

It's something far
more strategic…

Now, as I say, currently there’s no way for Australians to invest in this company DIRECTLY.

You have to be ‘accredited’ in the US and have a seven-figure net worth before you can buy in.

BUT — we’ve found a way that you CAN get positioned today

In fact, Australian investors are uniquely well placed to take advantage of this opportunity.

But as you’re about to see, you’ll need to be quick.

Now I’ve worked directly with Jim for the last 11 years, and I can tell you…

No one understands the intersection of politics and finance like he does. He brings a level of insight few others in the world can match.

  • He’s a former CIA and Pentagon consultant…
  • He helped craft the Petrodollar Accord that helped establish the US dollar as the world's reserve currency…
  • He's advised multiple US administrations…
  • Correctly predicted the 2008 financial crisis…
  • And maintains connections at the highest levels of Washington and Wall Street.

So on this, trust me, there’s no one more knowledgeable or more credible to listen to.

The presentation that follows is WAY ahead of the Australian Financial Review or anything you’ll hear on the evening news.

This is just breaking now — so you have an opportunity to get the jump on other investors.

You want my advice? Take it.

Here’s Jim…

Jim Rickards

JAMES G. RICKARDS

JIM RICKARDS

Hi, my name is Jim Rickards…

I’m a former CIA and Pentagon consultant, lawyer, and economist.

You might recognise me from my appearances on Fox, CNBC, and Bloomberg.

Or you might be familiar with the predictions I’ve made in my New York Times bestselling books…

...

But most people don’t know I also helped the Nixon administration craft the Petrodollar Accord, which helped establish the US dollar as the world reserve currency…

I assisted President Ronald Reagan in negotiating the end of the Iranian Hostage crisis…

And I’ve been inside the West Wing of the White House to give advice to members of President Trump’s cabinet…

...

I predicted the Great Recession of 2008…Trump’s 2016 victory… and the COVID Crisis of 2020.

But what I’m about to reveal
in the next
few minutes
might end up being the
biggest
prediction of my career…

If gold performs the way I think it will in the next few years, investors could do extremely well out of one investment I want to tell you about today.

But — as you’ll see — my favourite way to play the yellow metal is not at all what you might think.

I've found a company in the gold sector that has never actually mined a single ounce of gold…

It doesn't have any royalty contracts… and it has no gold bullion or coins on its balance sheet. In fact, most wouldn't consider it a gold company at all.

But, as I'll show you, this firm’s cutting-edge technology is set to help unlock US$390 billion annually, which could lead to substantial gains for early investors.

And today, the timing couldn’t be better.

Over the past two years, gold has crushed the ASX200…

...

But if you think gold has run too high, for too long, I have news for you:

It’s just getting started…

The price of a single ounce of gold could reach higher than US$5,000… US$10,000… even US$20,000 — or more — in this bull market.

I’ll show you the math in a few minutes.

Now, I don’t blame you if you’re sceptical of those numbers…

You might even call me crazy.

But similar moves have happened before throughout history.

The first occurred from 1971 to 1980, when gold handed some investors more than 2,300%.

...

In 1980, gold entered a bear market while the Federal Reserve aggressively fought inflation.

It lasted until 1999…

Then, the second gold bull market unfolded in 1999 through 2011.

And again, gold could have turned every $1,000 invested into more than $7,000…

...

After the Great Recession, the economy rebounded and interest rates rose, making gold less attractive.

But the bear market only lasted until 2015…

That’s when I went on TV and warned investors to buy gold before the third bull market started.

...

Source: Kitco News

And sure enough…

Gold bottomed out a few months later, then rose 170% ever since…

After calling the new gold bull market, I’m stepping forward today to say:

Gold’s most exciting gains

could still be ahead.

My sources are telling me that President Trump and his advisors support the biggest change for gold in decades…

The new Administration is considering bringing back the gold standard, which was dropped in the 1970s.

According to my calculations, if the US returns to the gold standard, one ounce of gold could soar by more than 1,000% from today’s price.

It’s a prediction I first made in mid-2024, as gold really heated up…

...

And today, we have a US government that supports it.

Trump calls the idea ‘wonderful.’

Bringing back the gold standard […] would be wonderful. We’d have a standard on which to base our money.’ – President Donald Trump

His long-time advisor, Steve Bannon, believes this second term is when Trump could diminish the power of the Federal Reserve, and back every dollar with real, hold-in-your hand bullion.

...

Steve Bannon says Trump will review a return to the gold standard – Media Matters

And Project 2025, the conservative blueprint written by Russell Vought, a member of Trump’s transition team, devoted an entire chapter to the Federal Reserve…

He proposed eliminating the Fed and bringing back the gold standard.

Vought, by the way, was just confirmed to lead the White House budget office.

Most people outside of the US

don’t realise what’s happening.

The Republican Party has promised a return to the gold standard in every election since 2012…

So far, it hasn’t happened.

But with Trump’s mandate from the American people, he finally has the political power to make massive changes.

In his inauguration speech, he declared ‘a new golden age’.

Was it just a metaphor? That’s what most people think.

When you consider what he’s already accomplished…

  • Fortifying America’s borders by deploying troops and the Coast Guard…
  • Opening up offshore drilling and energy exploration…
  • Restoring merit-based hiring for government employees…
  • Securing $500 billion in private sector investment for the largest AI infrastructure project in history, and…
  • Reopening dormant assembly plants in middle America…

It’s clear the US is back on track.

But what’s coming next
will catch
most people
completely off guard…

As America could return to some kind of gold standard.

Judy Shelton, Trump’s 1st term economic advisor, is a major advocate of making this move.

...

Trump picks another Fed member who believes in the gold standard. This one really means it. – CNN Business

She's proposing it happens on the nation’s 250th birthday…

July 4, 2026.

That's why there’s no time to waste…

There is now a bill in Congress to reestablish the gold standard.

But even if this bill doesn’t pass Congress…

History shows Trump could single-handedly kickstart the process.

In 1933, FDR issued an Executive Order, requiring Americans to turn in their gold…

...

Then Nixon signed an Executive Order to sever the dollar’s link to gold internationally…

All it takes is a single signature from Trump to undo the mistakes of our past and begin the return of a gold-backed dollar.

Rumours of this impending move are already circulating online…

...

Source: X.com

And soon, what began as whispers and rumours could become the financial shot heard ‘round the world…

Now — what does this all mean for the price of gold?

This question is up for debate.

Based on the current M2 money supply and the gold inside US Treasury Department vaults…

If we return to a full, 100% gold standard, the price for one ounce of gold would have to soar to nearly US$69,000.

That’s about a 2,250% increase

from today’s price.

But what if the Trump Administration doesn’t adopt a full gold standard?

What if they decide to return to what America had from 1913 to 1946…

When the legal requirement for the Federal Reserve was to hold a minimum of 40% of the total money supply in gold?

If this happens, here’s what I believe the impact on gold will be…

Today, the total US money supply, including cash and savings accounts, is worth about $17.9 trillion.

The World Gold Council says the US has 8,133 tonnes of gold reserves.

When you divide $17.9 trillion by 8,133 tonnes… it’s easy to see the price of one ounce of gold would shoot up to US$27,533.

And even if it doesn’t soar to US$27,000…

I’d be shocked if it didn’t double or triple in the near term.

Most investors might be thinking, ‘I missed out.’

After all, gold just hit a new all-time high, but if you remain on the sidelines now?

You could be kicking yourself in the months to come.

How do I know?

Well, it’s simple…

Do you think the US government is likely to decrease the money supply anytime soon?

I can just about guarantee you the answer is absolutely not.

After all, America’s money supply increased 364% since the beginning of the pandemic.

And they’ve shown no signs of stopping anytime soon.

In other words…

The price of gold measured in dollars MUST go up. And US$27,000 could happen sooner than you think.

I’m so confident, I published this prediction on ZeroHedge, for everyone to see.

...

Source: ZeroHedge

If you think US$27,000 gold is outlandish…

Just consider that roughly 12 years ago, the ‘experts’ were saying gold would never break past US$1,400.

...

7 reasons the gold price may not see US$1,400 again – Mining.com, September 4, 2013

Since then, it’s more than doubled, and demand for precious metals is only increasing.

In January, London vaults experienced its largest outflow of gold in history…

There is now a gold shortage in the UK.

Gold demand hit its highest level on record in 2024, in large part due to central banks.

...

Central banks bought twice as much gold in 2023 as they did just 2 years prior.

And in 2024, central bank gold purchases hit a record high.

According to The World Gold Council, there is ‘no let-up in the pace of central bank gold buying.’

In other words…

The world’s top bankers

are abandoning ship.

All at once, they’ve recognised that their dollars, euros and yen aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on. Not for much longer, anyway.

So, they’re loading up on gold, creating a supply and demand imbalance that’s pushing gold even higher…

But the Trump Administration isn’t just answering their gold-buying spree with a potential return to the gold standard…

There is speculation the US Treasury is now considering monetising America’s gold reserves.

The government’s gold holdings are currently on the books at 1970s prices, or US$42.22 an ounce.

Now think about this for a second.

Let’s say you bought a home in the early 1970s for $30,000.

But today, your neighbours’ homes have sold for $900,000… $1 million or more.

Meanwhile, the government decreed that your house is still only valued at its 1970s price of $30,000.

What would happen if you could suddenly value your house at its true worth?

It goes without saying that
the
value of your house
would skyrocket.

Well, that’s precisely what could happen in the gold market.

The US government has valued its own gold at a book value of US$42.22 per ounce since 1974…

But as they revalue the gold on its books…

The price of gold is about to explode higher.

Today, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent wants to ‘monetise the asset side of the US balance sheet’ for the American people.

And he said this change will occur within the next 12 months.

What does all this mean for you?

If the US government simply values its gold at today’s price, the value of its holdings would soar from US$11 billion to nearly US$765 billion.

This money can be used to pay down America’s national debt and for much needed infrastructure projects.

And for in-the-know investors — it could add up to a massive windfall.

That's why, today my advice is simple…

Don’t wait to position
yourself to
benefit from
these historic decisions

Make your move now, before gold potentially blasts to new record highs in the months ahead.

Will it get to US$27,000?

Nobody can say for sure.

But even if it only does half as well…

Even if it only soars to — say — US$12,000 per ounce…

You could do quite well.

But if you take a look at my #1 Gold Play for 2025, I think you could do much better.

It’s not a gold miner or a royalty company…

In fact, I’d wager none of the employees at this company look like they’ve ever spent a full day working at a mine.

Instead, they’ve developed a technology…

A technology that, over the next decade, could unleash nearly half a billion dollars in efficiency gains annually according to McKinsey.

In short, the mining firms that control this technology will own the future of gold mining, adding billions to their bottom line just by deploying it.

The technology I’m referring to is something you’ve probably heard of before…

Google’s CEO said it will be more transformative to humanity than electricity or fire.

In fact, it’s become the biggest trend in tech circles since the dot-com boom…

I’m talking about

artificial intelligence, or AI.

Already, for every $1 a company has invested in it, it’s produced $3.50 in return, and we’re still only in the ‘first inning’ of its roll-out.

Now, I’m not an early tech adopter or a Silicon Valley cheerleader.

In fact, I recently published a book called ‘MoneyGPT’, which reveals how some forms of AI will endanger global economic markets and security.

Readers have called it the ‘untold side of AI’ and an ‘eye opener.’

Overall, I'm sceptical about AI.

But just like the internet, personal computers, and every technology that came before…

Every new innovation comes with both risks and major opportunity.

Today, AI as a whole represents a $10 trillion opportunity available for early investors by 2035.

Yet, very few people know what’s coming.

It appears only those working at the world's largest mining companies are aware.

Why?

Because — for obvious reasons,

it’s a closely-guarded secret…

AI could soon be more effective at finding gold than any technology or person who's come before it.

It’s why Jeff Bezos… Bill Gates …Sam Altman… and other billionaires are betting big on AI disrupting the mining industry.

Once I show you how mining with AI works, it will be no surprise to you why the world’s richest men see a big payday.

Just look at American mining company, Freeport McMoRan [NYSE:FCX].

Freeport owns a large copper mine, called the Bagdad Mine, 100 miles northwest of Phoenix, Arizona.

This mine produces 9 million pounds of copper annually, but Freeport leveraged AI to boost it even higher.

They hired McKinsey, the world’s largest management consulting firm, to build an AI to improve every step of their operations.

Freeport began by installing sensors on all the company’s trucks, shovels, and stationary machines, to capture second-by-second performance readings.

Then, Freeport used all the data to train an AI to find ways to increase output at a lower cost.

And the results are

nothing short of stunning…

Over the next five years, Freeport is projected to unlock additional copper production equivalent to an entire new mine.

Keep in mind: the cost for Freeport to build a new mine would be $2 billion and it would take 10 years…

But today, Freeport is using AI to add an entire mine’s worth of higher production, in half the time…

That’s the power of AI in mining.

The President of Freeport’s Mining Services said: ‘It’s almost like having a brand-new plant without having to go through the permitting process.’

Freeport’s new AI will increase production across all their mines by 200 million pounds.

At today’s price per pound, that’s an additional $800 million in revenue for the company.

Once their new strategy proved successful, Freeport expanded it to each of its 10 mines, spanning North America, South America, and Indonesia.

AI is a major reason why shares of Freeport have soared to a peak of more than 1,000% in four years.

...

Now, let’s take a look at Barrick Gold [NYSE:B], the world's largest pure gold mining company.

According to company insiders, Barrick’s gold and copper mine in Pakistan is one of the world’s largest untapped mines.

The company launched satellites in the sky along with smart sensors on the ground to collect as much data as it could…

Then, the firm’s engineers fed all the data into an AI, which created a detailed 3D map of what’s underground.

...

The results speak
for themselves.

AI helps identify the most likely locations of mineral deposits much faster than humans can, resulting in reduced exploration costs.

But that’s not all…

Barrick’s AI partner claims it now has the ability to discover gold and copper at a pace up to 100 times faster than traditional methods.

AI is even helping Barrick predict equipment defects, so any machinery failure can be fixed before there’s costly downtime.

Shares have soared as high as 30% within three months of announcing its new AI.

...

Newcrest Mining [ASX:NCM] has adopted AI and ‘Internet of Things’ solutions for gold and copper production.

It started returning its investment in just three months.

MetInvest, a private company mining iron ore and coal, expects to see $100 million in savings.

Today, AI is as valuable as the physical assets that make mining possible.

The miners who use AI are on track to add nearly $400 billion to their balance sheets…

Not one time…
But
$400 billion, every single year.

And the lion’s share will go to companies that move on it first.

That’s more money than the economies of 10 countries around the world.

The Head of MIT’s Computational Biology Group says AI will ‘surpass the best geologists.’

It’s no surprise spending on mining AI has nearly tripled from 2019 to 2024…

...

And according to industry insiders, it’s expected to grow 675% over the coming years.

...

When a new technology makes companies billions in additional profit, it becomes priceless.

Just ask Newmont Corporation [NYSE:NEM], which reported a 15% increase in gold productivity at its Nevada mines, after adopting AI.

Or Anglo American [LON:AAL], which saw a 20% reduction in equipment failures.

Some mining companies have reported a staggering 20% increase in productivity.

But there’s one piece of AI technology that stands out above all the rest in the gold mining industry.

This technology is in
a league of its own…

And in a moment, I’ll show you how to get the name and full analysis of the company behind this technology, so stick around.

But first, listen carefully — because this isn’t the first time we’ve seen a tech breakthrough transform an entire industry, unlocking billions in profits.

It’s happened time after time throughout history.

Oil is a perfect example.

Throughout the early part of this century ‘peak oil’ was a major topic in the financial headlines.

But when oil production slowed, America innovated.

We created hydraulic fracturing, or ‘fracking,’ which involves pumping high-pressure water and sand into the ground to create cracks in rock, allowing oil to flow more easily.

American oil production hit a low of five million barrels per day in 2008…

But now, with fracking, US oil production is booming…

America is now the biggest oil producer in the world, and we’re generating more oil than ever while using fewer rigs.

It’s all thanks to fracking, but here’s the big lesson.

The oil companies who
were first to
embrace
fracking won the day.

I’m talking about Mitchell Energy, which pioneered fracking in the Barnett Shale of Texas.

It laid the groundwork with their technology in the late 90s, then in 2001, Devon Energy [NYSE:DVN] made a shrewd investment decision…

They bought the entire company.

Devon Energy soared to a peak 444% as fracking became the biggest innovation for oil and gas inside a decade.

...

Halliburton [NYSE:HAL] was the first company to use fracking technology for commercial purposes.

Its stock rose as high as 1,240% in a decade as other oil and gas producers tried to catch up.

...

And EOG Resources [NYSE:EOG] was an early adopter of fracking, using this new innovation for both natural gas and oil…

EOG skyrocketed up to 1,857% in a decade.

...

Fracking extracts oil and gas from fields we didn’t even know existed…

And we’re about to witness the same effect play out with AI and gold.

Why am I so confident?

Because AI is already having the same impact on other industries.

Today, pharmaceutical companies spend an average of 12 years to create a single new treatment.

But researchers are projecting AI may be able to cut the time to develop new drugs nearly in half which will save countless lives.

That’s a 40-50% savings in both wait time and costs.

MIT Technology Review said: ‘AI is dreaming up drugs that no one has ever seen.’

In one instance, a biotech company called Exscientia [NASDAQ:EXAI] used AI for developing 136 new compounds for its cancer drug in a single year.

Its stock shot up as much as 345% in less than 2 years.

...

Another biotech company, Absci [NASDAQ:ABSI], is using AI to fight cancer and other diseases.

It produces high-quality drug candidates in as little as six weeks.

Absci’s stock has soared as high as 437% in 6 months.

...

The efficiencies created by AI have sent these stocks to new highs.

Today, computer chips are the world’s most traded product, after oil and motor vehicle parts.

It’s a market worth nearly $600 billion…

Google [NASDAQ:GOOG] has now developed an AI that designs new chips in 6 hours that would normally take a human months of work.

This isn’t something that

‘may or may not’ happen…

Google’s AI has already designed chips the company is using today.

Since its AI-designed chips hit the headlines…

Shares have grown 63% in two and a half years.

...

Like Google, Nvidia [NASDAQ:NVDA] is using its own AI to produce chips faster.

A computer chip typically takes about 1,000 people to build, but Nvidia’s AI is designed to cut their training time down significantly.

The company trained its AI on 12 billion data points from Nvidia’s 30-year history of designing chips…

It learned all of the code, design documents, bug reports, and more…
And it’s now paying off for Nvidia.

Shares were up as high as 200% over the past year alone.

...

But computer chips and cancer
drugs
are just the start…

One of the first industries to recognise the profit potential of AI was Wall Street.

75% of the largest institutional asset managers are clients of a financial tech company called Virtu Financial [NASDAQ:VIRT].

Virtu uses AI and mountains of data to help their clients make predictions in the stock market.

They’re able to see metrics you can’t find on Yahoo Finance, giving sophisticated insights the average investor never has access to.

Wall Street is using this technology to get another leg up, helping them grow even richer…

Meanwhile, Virtu’s stock went up as much as 139% in less than a year.

...

AI is disrupting:

  • The $10 trillion drug industry…
  • The $600 billion computer chip industry, and…
  • The $55 trillion stock market…

Now, it has gold in its crosshairs, and my #1 gold company is at the centre of it.

Andreesen Horowitz, the venture capital fund which backed Airbnb, Instagram, Coinbase, and OpenAI, said there is ‘no obvious competitor in the space.’

The firm’s list of investors reads like a ‘who’s who’ of Silicon Valley and Wall Street.

Names like:

  • Bill Gates…
  • Jeff Bezos…
  • Sam Altman…
  • Richard Branson…
  • Ray Dalio…
  • Michael Bloomberg…
  • Alibaba’s Jack Ma…
  • LinkedIn’s Reid Hoffman…

The list goes on and on, but I think you get the point.

These billionaires know how to spot a ‘moon shot’ investment when they see one.

That’s how they got rich
in the first place.

The World Economic Forum named my #1 gold company one of the 100 pioneers in technology today, the same recognition Google received.

What this gold company is working on is so critical, the US Federal Government is supporting a $2.3 billion infrastructure upgrade to facilitate it.

And this growth is already paying dividends…

The company has grown 860,000% in size over the past 5 years and we’re still only in the ‘first inning.’

The New York Times reported their first big find could eventually be a ‘huge payout for investors.’

Right now, they are focused on critical metals, but I expect they will soon expand into gold as well.

When you see the full story, it’s not difficult to understand why…

AI is transforming the mining industry, and it’s happening virtually overnight.

For a century, the industry has relied on sampling soil and sediment to discover new mines.

The traditional way of doing
things
worked for years, but
not anymore…

...

Gold production is down in practically every region in the world over the past 5 years.

The World Gold Council reported: ‘The industry is struggling to report sustained growth in production.’

For decades, miners prospected the surface of the Earth to hit paydirt, but all the ‘low-hanging fruit’ is gone. And these surface minerals are never returning…

The Wall Street Journal warned: ‘The industry needs to adopt new methods.’

The future of mining depends on the ability to discover new deposits at depth, miles underneath the ground. But traditional methods aren’t effective…

That’s why so many billionaires — from Jeff Bezos to Richard Branson — are backing my number one gold company.

Its technology is totally proprietary, thanks to its AI backed by 10 patents.

This AI is like Google Maps

for the Earth’s crust.

When exploring a new territory, the company sends modified Cessna planes into the sky to get radar and magnetic readings…

It uncovers 100-year-old maps from explorers…

Captures high resolution satellite imagery…

And acquires data from government sources.

The company even drops sensors into the ground for density readings of the underground world.

It combines tens of millions of documents to create a 3D visualisation of a specific territory.

Then, its AI sifts through all this information to find geological patterns, to make predictions on where a deposit is most likely to be hidden.

It’s like a ‘cheat code’ for geologists to know where to dig.

And the results speak for themselves…

Humans have been mining in Zambia, a country in Southern Africa, for centuries.

Just about all of
the easy
surface minerals
have been taken.

But when my #1 gold company visited Zambia with its new AI, it discovered a deposit hidden one mile underground, which no one even knew existed…

After the AI pinpointed where to dig, the company discovered the largest and highest-grade copper deposit in the world.

The average copper mine today has an ore grade of 0.6%, while this Zambia mine has a grade of more than 5%.

...

By 2030, it is expected to produce 300,000 tons of copper every year…

Equivalent to billions of

dollars’ worth annually.

But the company says the value of the mine could grow even higher because it’s still mapping the full extent of its highest-grade ore.

Billions of dollars a year is only the tip of the iceberg since this is just a single mine.

My #1 gold company is now rolling out its AI to 60 exploration projects in North America, Africa, and over where you are, in Australia…

We could be talking tens of billions, even hundreds of billions in new revenue.

When this AI was deployed in Quebec recently, it discovered nickel sulfide in 8 out of the 10 holes it recommended drilling in.

Andreesen Horowitz viewed the results and concluded the AI ‘algorithms are working.’

The miners who have access to this new technology will own the future, but there is one problem.

Today, my #1 gold company is a private business, and executives say it may not go public until three to five years from now.

This is preventing average investors from taking advantage of its rapid growth.

If you’re not a well-connected billionaire, you can’t buy a stake for yourself.

Fortunately, together with my
team, we’ve found a ‘backdoor’
way for you to get exposure
before it’s officially listed on
the stock market.

We’ve located a publicly traded, ASX-listed gold miner that owns private shares of my #1 gold company, setting up a rare opportunity.

You can buy this stock through your brokerage account, there in Australia.

In a way, you could call it a ‘pre-IPO’ exposure in my favourite firm at the intersection of AI and mining.

As this private company rolls out its AI to dozens of new mines, potentially generating billions in untapped revenue, this one stock is set to benefit from all of it.

And here’s the best part…

This stock isn’t just a silent partner — it’s also leveraging my #1 gold company’s AI for some of its own mines.

That’s TWO ways you could potentially profit from this breakthrough technology…

The first is the growth of its private business, which has already grown an incredible 860,000% since 2019…

The second benefit is this mining company is one of the select few with access to this groundbreaking AI.

While other miners are stuck using archaic techniques, sampling soil and drilling random locations for gold, this stock has the ‘cheat code.’

It’s running its AI to find new deposits, miles underground, which other firms have no chance of discovering.

Of course, like any investment, there are no guarantees.

This is a speculative play that may not pan out as expected. I always say you should never invest more than you can afford to lose.

But investing today will give you exposure to one of the fastest growing private businesses I know of.

A business only
billionaires have
gained
exposure to, until now.

A business which could dominate the mining industry for decades.

Not just gold, but silver, copper, battery metals, and more…

I want to send you its name and my team’s full analysis of both the private business developing this AI and the ‘backdoor’ gold stock that owns part of it.

It’s why I just published my newest report: ‘The Billionaire “Backdoor” AI Mining Stock’.

Spending on AI in mining is set to grow 675% in the coming years…

And what we reveal in this new report is the best stock we’re aware of to potentially benefit as this cash floods in.

Nearly every global mining company wants its AI and you can get exposure today while it’s still a private company.

Gold bullion could have 1,000% upside from today’s price if we return to the gold standard…

And could easily remain above US$3,000 per ounce for the foreseeable future if not.

But our ‘backdoor’ way into the world’s greatest AI mining company could have even higher upside…

Before I show you how…

There’s another opportunity that deserves to be on your radar…

During President Trump’s first term, he added $2 trillion to the defence budget…

He modernised America’s nuclear forces and missile defences…

And he aided our allies by authorising military equipment sales.

But now, in his second term, Trump’s efforts to modernise the US military will go a step further.

The next war will be fought in cyberspace as much as the battlefield, and today, no weapon is as powerful as artificial intelligence.

As an individual
investor, it’s
setting up
a huge new opportunity.

Defence companies are embedded in the construction and maintenance of classified US defence systems.

Not only are Congress and President Trump unlikely to cut these programs…

But there’s a high probability defence spending will increase as we race to develop stronger AI than our enemies.

We don’t really have a choice.

America modernises in the age of AI warfare or gets left behind.

And I don’t see President Trump waving the white flag… he’s not going to want to lose this race.

Over the next year, I foresee streams of cash will flow from the US Defence Department into defence companies, and ultimately, the pockets of shareholders.

I’m going to show you
everything
you need to have
the best chance
to benefit —
from right there in Australia.

My #1 stock for capitalising on America’s new Defence AI has soared more than 1,000% over the past decade at its peak.

...

Of course, gains like this are rare. But as you’ll see, I believe its best days of delivering capital gains to shareholders could still be in front of it.

Why?

Because two-thirds of its employees have security clearances.

When the Department of Defense awards a contract, it chooses defence partners it trusts, and few have more trust than this company.

It generates $10 billion

in revenue every year.

And yet, its costs are extremely low.

Its business is based on hiring the smartest people.

It doesn’t require new factories, stores, or mines to grow its bottom line.

This is what I call a wealth-compounding business. Every year, its making shareholders richer.

Now, AI is about to unleash an entire new revenue stream.

Last year, the US government awarded this defence stock with a $431 million contract to develop a new AI.

This was after it was awarded another contract for AI-related work in August, from the US Army, worth $506 million.

This is just the tip of the iceberg…

As the government ramps up spending on AI, this defence stock is perfectly positioned to benefit the most.

Based on my team’s fundamental analysis, my #1 AI Defence stock potentially has 185% upside from today’s price by 2030.

And that’s over the next five years…

Over the next decade, the gains could grow much higher.

Again, you should be able to buy this stock through most brokerages or trading platforms in Australia.

But here’s the best part…

It pays a steady dividend yield, which has grown every year since 2014.

That’s right, you have the opportunity to collect dividends as my #1 Defence AI stock is positioned to soar over the years to come.

The Pentagon’s budget for AI defence spending more than doubled between 2022 and 2024.

According to a research firm which consults with over 100 Fortune 500 companies, the Defence AI market will grow 44% annually through 2028.

This entire market is on track to grow 4-fold within the next three years.

And I believe my #1 Defence AI stock is in position to benefit the most from this growing cash flow.

You can discover its name, ticker, and my team’s full buy analysis in our special report: ‘Trump’s AI Arsenal: The Defence Stocks Poised for Growth in a New Era of Warfare’.

I’ll show you how to get a FREE copy of this report when you subscribe, so you can move on this opportunity quickly.

Inside, there are four additional Defence AI plays you’ll discover:

  • DEFENCE AI STOCK #2: One of our top defence stocks is working on a new weapon that’s so effective, the US government is paying $668 million PER unit. Now, it’s partnering with Elon Musk’s SpaceX on a classified defence project. This stock has seen 100% upside this decade and has raised its dividend yield for 21 consecutive years and counting.
  • DEFENCE AI STOCK #3: Another stock in this report is the leader in electronic warfare. It develops military satellites, stealth planes, and autonomous surface and undersea vehicles. Spending on electronic warfare technology is projected to grow from $18 billion to $36 billion in the coming years and I believe this defence stock is the leader.
  • DEFENCE AI STOCK #4: The Ukraine War has shown that drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, are one of the most important emerging fields in the weapons market, and one specific defence contractor could dominate the industry. Now, AI is set to take military drones a step further, enabling them to navigate autonomously in complex terrains with enhanced target recognition. My #1 AI drone stock just signed a $1 billion contract with the US Army.
  • DEFENCE AI STOCK #5: The final defence stock in this new report could — according to my team’s research — deliver impressive gains over the long-term, even as soon as a decade. It’s developing an AI-powered long-range drone that can take out targets up to 3,000 miles away. This innovation could replace manned aircraft in war over the years ahead, and once it’s approved for our allies to buy it, revenue could go through the roof.

You’ll get all of our top five defence stock names and buy analysis inside:

Trump’s AI Arsenal: The Defence Stocks Poised for Growth in a New Era of Warfare’.

Every one of these stocks is trading below their true value, because Wall Street doesn’t understand how dangerous the global geopolitical environment truly is.

But once they wake up to the realities…

The stocks inside this report could skyrocket.

The AI opportunities in mining and defence are what I’m most bullish about today…

But don’t forget…

According to my math, gold potentially has 1,000% upside during this third bull market.

Even if I’m wrong, and it only goes up half as much, that’s still life-changing wealth creation.

We’ve discovered a unique stock which has the power to multiply gold’s performance from how its balance sheet is structured.

Today, normal gold mining companies take on a lot of risk.

They spend money to find gold deposits…

Then they spend more to build infrastructure around it…

Employing thousands to move and store the gold.

Meanwhile, gold royalty companies spend very little to make money.

They bypass all the normal costs mining companies have to spend.

And the results speak for themselves…

Since 2018, when the third gold bull market was starting to heat up, the leading junior gold miner ETF is up 112%.

...

Not bad…

But our #1 gold royalty stock has delivered 167% peak gains over the same period.

...

They’re both gold investments, but I believe one is superior due to its royalty business.

It receives all of the upside of gold, without paying the high costs gold miners have to.

You lower the risks and expenses of the mining business and every three months, you can potentially collect income…

My #1 gold royalty stock has raised its dividend for 18 consecutive years and counting.

It acquired many of its 430 assets years ago, when gold valuations were significantly lower than today.

This enables the company to generate lots of cash with little debt.

Obviously, there are no guarantees, but if all gold does is double from today’s price…

My #1 gold royalty stock
potentially
has 300% upside
over the next decade.

But if gold reaches US$27,000, like I predict it could if we return to the gold standard, the gains could soar even higher…

You can discover its name and full buy analysis in our new report:

Our #1 Gold Royalty Stock’.

Before billionaire Jim Simons passed recently, he invested over $300 million in this single stock.

Simons founded the Medallion Fund…

A $100 investment in the Medallion Fund in 1988 would have grown to $2.1 million by 2018.
