Good morning Investors!
______________________________
(QUICK NOTE: Just returned from a two-week swing through AZ, NV and CA, I had several EXCITING visits with some of our covered companies in a few different sectors! Our Members will get first dibs on the wrap-ups early this coming week; so be on the lookout!)

Especially IF you are a Member of The National Investor, you know there really is nothing "wrong" with this chart:

And that's because I told not only our Members but those following me on social media as well right when the Iran War started that precious metals would be going DOWN.
Indeed, many of the factors that led to the initial selling in PM's that began a month before the war have now intensified.
Just one example: Have you heard anywhere else that key central banks are now SELLING gold??
A global economy that has now been turned inside out (which near term, net, is NEGATIVE for precious metals and some other commodities) are among the factors I cover anew in the latest version of one of my most popular AND PROFITABLE Special Reports ever:
This is STILL Not Your Father's Gold Market!
You can watch the JAM-PACKED video format RIGHT HERE or by clicking on the above graphic.
For just the audio version, (none of the many graphics, of course, but you'll still "get it") visit my PODCAST PAGE.
This industry-leading “handbook” once again equips you with the knowledge you need to be a successful investor in all things gold and silver. That of late has been as much an exercise in not losing money/locking in profits as in making it, as a lot of people have been learning the hard way!
At both the pages linked above you'll see the meaty Table of Contents and details of what you'll learn. Summarized here, they are:
--> A current snapshot of the precious metals and the key factors that have--for now--tilted things in the bearish direction and why.
--> History lesson -- The TWO key dates along the way to gold being an investable, market-oriented asset, with some ups and downs along the way. (Among the insightful and REALLY cool history, I'll tell you the story of my greatest trade recommendation EVER around the second of those key dates: September 26, 1999.)
--> Why fickle investment activity where gold is concerned (now even more important given the recent developments concerning central banks) has been unreliable over the years...and must be traded to some extent.
--> Key ways that the foundational case for gold (and later silver) have recently been strengthened, notwithstanding the recent consolidation (and I also discuss what "triggers" -- one key one illustrated below -- will make them actually matter!)

--> Silver's attributes: both in common with and distinct from gold, and how to invest in each accordingly and intelligently.
--> How to avoid the main pitfalls of precious metals investing, with SPECIFIC kinds of investments (and "gurus") to run away from.
--> A laundry list of PM-related investments / styles, with special emphasis on my checklist for how to determine which individual companies are worth your portfolio's attention!

Also today, for those who have not already seen it, I want to direct you to THIS VERY RECENT UPDATE on BacTech Environmental (CSE-BAC; OTCQB-BCCEF) I recorded with C.E.O. Ross Orr.
This was on the occasion of BAC's filing of its patent on its Zero Tailings™ technology in both the U.S. and Canada.
CHECK THIS OUT, FOLKS! There is not a "sexier" and more timely sub-theme in the mining industry than this, as accelerating government and big company involvement are finally coalescing in enhanced recovery technologies achieving critical mass.
All the best,
