- $100-a-barrel
oil
I made this call back in 2004, when the price was under $40. It’s
documented in my best-selling book published that year, The Oil
Factor: Protect Yourself—and Profit—from the Coming Energy Crisis.
- the
earlier rise of the Dow above 4000
This prediction was made in 1984, when it hovered around 800. The
guardians of conventional wisdom said I must be out of my mind – but I
had the last laugh.
- the
collapse of the dot.com bubble
See my book Defying the Market, published in 1999.
- the
current bull market in precious metals
Another prediction from Defying the Market, in which I
recommended gold as a "must-have" investment.
- the
beginning of the era of resource and energy scarcity early in the 21st
century.
This has been the major focus of my work since the late 90’s, something
I’ve studied and written about extensively in all my books since that
time.
Besides Defying the Market and The Oil
Factor, which I mentioned above, I’ve also written The Coming
Economic Collapse (2006), Game Over (2009) and my latest
book, Red Alert (2011), which describes how China’s incredibly
large and voracious appetite for resources to fuel its growth will
inevitably threaten the American way of life. Very few of our political
and business leaders fully realize the coming impact of this
phenomenon.
The new and truly unprecedented era of resource
scarcity is caused by a combination of two enormous world-historic
factors:
- The explosive growth of the emerging economies
of Brazil, India, Russia, and most prominently, China.
- The "peak resources" phenomenon – peak oil,
peak coal, peak copper …virtually “peak everything” when it comes to
materials and resources. I broadly define “peak” as the point at which
increases in global production (supply) of a resource can no longer
satisfy increases in world-wide demand.
Since I have been intensively studying, tracking and
investing in the resources sector for the past 15 years, I’m not
surprised when I read statements like the one just released by Burkhard
P. Varnholt, Chief Investment Officer of Bank Sarasin & Cie AG in
Switzerland, who asserted that…
"Commodity prices could
double in five years due to resource shortages"
Neither was I shocked to learn about the conclusions of a report issued
by Goldman Sachs a few months ago:
"Copper prices may be
'unimaginably' high in three years"
Indeed, at The Leeb Group my team and I have been
preparing for this situation for quite some time. And one of the ways
we have prepared is to establish a unique trading advisory service that
specializes in commodity-related stocks called…
Leeb's Real World Investing
It’s a dynamic service designed for investors who care
about risk and asset protection as well as maximizing their gains, but
probably don’t have the time or resources to do all the deep research
required to find the best of the best on their own..
That’s where my team of seasoned experts and
world-class analysts step into the picture. These market professionals
will let you know about the very top opportunities in commodity,
energy, gold and precious metals stocks--what to buy, when to buy
it, and when to sell for maximum profit.
Just to be clear about an important point, I did say
"stocks." This service is not about trading in commodity
futures, which is a particularly risky, complex and high-stakes game
that’s best avoided by most investors.
Rather, the resource-related stocks that Leeb’s
Real World Investing recommends can be bought and sold through your
regular broker like any other stock – yet still enable you to earn
significant profits from the run up in resources in a far less risky
way.
In the final analysis this service is about investments
that can not only make you money now, but keep you financially secure
for years to come by capitalizing on major trends.
Our Model
Portfolio and Email
Action Alerts make it simple to follow and easy to understand,
and we stay on top of our recommendations so you don’t have to watch
them minute by minute.
And the results speak for themselves... as showin in the trades listed above.
But there’s something else you need to know about this
new age of resource scarcity:
Besides the opportunities for profit, it also involves a significant
danger.
The Threat of
Mega-Inflation
Yes – a big part of our strategy lays out a course for
you to safeguard your assets and even build them up further by
capitalizing on the increasing inflation we expect ahead.
It’s inevitable for a number of reasons.
The increase in commodity prices is certainly one of them – which we
are already seeing.
Consider the fact that despite almost non-existent
growth in GDP in the U.S. and Eurozone today, Brent crude oil is
still currently trading in the triple digits!
Can you imagine what the price of oil would be like if
there were any semblance of healthy growth in the developed world? It
would surely be approaching – if not surpassing – its record 2008 highs.
But higher prices for resources aren’t the only factor
behind the looming threat of greater inflation.
Another is our Federal Reserve Board, which in no
uncertain terms recently indicated its willingness to tolerate more
inflation, along with a readiness to embark on a new round of
“quantitative easing,” i.e., institute a QE3 in the interests of
stimulating the economy and higher employment.
This means printing more money and devaluing the dollar
further – both of which may very well fuel inflation to a level we
haven’t seen since the disastrous decade of the 70’s. That’s why…
Gold (and silver and other
precious metals)
occupy one of the cornerstones of our strategy
As I described earlier, I’ve been a strong proponent of
investing in gold since the late 90’s -- to the considerable
satisfaction of the investors who have followed my advice. My book Defying
the Market in 1999 not only warned readers about the impending
bursting of the dotcom bubble, but also gave them one of the best
pieces of advice I’ve ever provided to investors: "Buy Gold!"
From the perspective of what’s happening with gold
today, that recommendation might not seem like a big deal. But at that
time, it wasn’t a popular or easy call to make.
The reason: between the summer of 1996 and the summer
of 1998 the yellow metal lost 30 percent of its value, and the average
gold stock did even worse, declining by about 50%.
But I was convinced that we were going to see it come
back strongly – and boy, did it ever!
In 1999 the average price of an ounce of gold was $279.
And if you held it continuously since then, your
investment would have increased in value every year except one (in 2000
the price dipped less than 3%). But then in 10 out of the next 11 years
you would have enjoyed double-digit year-over-year increases in the
value of your holdings.
Here’s a chart showing prices and gains year by year:
Today, on the day I'm writing this, gold's price per ounce is over $100 higher than the 2011 average, at $1,683. That's a 503% gain since I first recommended the yellow metal in 1999 as an essential investment for every investor's portfolio!
For two generations gold
has outperformed the S&P 500!
This is hardly a modern phenomenon, as gold has been
prized as a store of value for five millennia.
Traditionally regarded as an inflation hedge (see the
chart below for gold’s performance in the inflation-ravaged 70’s) when
we look deeper we see that more accurately it’s really a hedge against
the debasement of paper currencies.
Thus gold functions more like a currency than a
commodity in this respect. This essentially monetary character of gold
also stems from the fact that unlike other precious metals such as
silver or platinum, it has relatively few industrial uses.
If you believe as we do that at a certain point
inflation is likely to break-out on a wide basis, the yellow metal will
be one of the few games in town worth playing.
Of course, the same goes for other precious metals,
along with those increasingly scarce commodities:
Silver… Palladium… Copper… Zinc… Lead… Nickel…
Aluminum
and the Heavy Rare Earths Elements that figure so prominently
in technologies for exploiting renewable wind and solar energy. And Oil
(for as long as it can still be produced), too.

Today the concept of “Peak Oil” –
the idea that we are heading towards a point where world oil production
irreversibly declines--is no longer a fringe belief. Of even more
concern, we face the very same problem with other valuable resources,
too.

This report gives you a clear and easy to
understand briefing on this phenomenon as it affects…
- Peak Oil
- Peak Coal
- Peak Copper
- Silver
- Rare Earth Elements

The latter two resources are especially important as
indispensable in the technologies required for a successful transition
to alternative energy (notably wind and solar). But they, too, present
situations where demand is eclipsing supply.
The report not only describes the conditions creating
resource scarcity, it gives you specific investments that will enable
you to profit – and protect yourself – from its inevitable consequences.
For example, you’ll get the names of two oil stocks
which are currently offering outstanding returns through a combination
of expanding oil reserves and production. And they are very well
positioned to benefit from increased oil prices in the future.
You’ll also learn the names of other potential
high-profit investment opportunities, for each of the resources the
Report covers.
Don’t miss out on this extremely valuable guide to
successfully navigating a world beset by increasing resource scarcity.
