Three times over the last 30 years.
That’s how often I’ve received the signal to go “all-in” on gold.
The first time was back in the 2000s…

At the time, gold was despised by Wall Street.
Goldman Sachs called it “a 19th-century asset.”
One of Merrill Lynch’s top investment analysts said that it was only for “grandmothers and conspiracy theorists.”
And two of America’s leading economists at the time called it a “barren asset.”
