Defense Stocks Still Cost Too Much in 2025
Market down? Do this now.
During Trump's first term, his tariffs sent gold prices soaring. Investors who acted early made a fortune. Now, history is repeating itself. Here's the truth: Tariffs create uncertainty. Uncertainty drives investors to gold. And gold prices rise as a result. It's a cycle that's already beginning again—and it's your chance to profit. Why wait? Greed isn't always a bad thing—especially when it comes to protecting and growing your wealth. The smartest investors are already moving their money into gold, and you should too.
