My most important prediction yet (Ad)

One year ago at this time, I was gearing up to do something I’d never done before… After years of working behind the scenes, helping Tom Busby and teaching traders all about the markets, I was about ready to jump in front of a camera. Why? Because my research and years of expertise were showing me a phenomenon that people NEEDED to know about. That gold was setting up to go on a historic run that I called the “2024 Gold Supercycle.” I went LIVE on December 7, 2023, and made my bold prediction — staking 20+ years of a reputation on this one public prognostication. And the rest, as they say, is history… Gold went on to have its best year since 1979 — almost half a century! I’m going to tell you all about it on Wednesday, December 4th @ 1:00 PM ET, 362 days after I first made my prediction on gold.
