My partner Peter Schiff and I have both been pretty aggressive over the past couple of years in telling our audience that gold companies were deeply undervalued. Our thesis was simple: the price of gold was surging to fresh record highs every couple of months, yet gold companies were languishing

You’ve probably heard the story. As the legend goes, on a late-summer morning in 1929, Joseph Kennedy — patriarch of the famous Kennedy family — was headed into his office in downtown New York City. As he sat for a quick shoe shine, the young boy buffing his shoes, barely

Don Edgar considered himself extremely lucky. It was early in the morning on November 6, 1956, and the World War II veteran turned journalist for Britain’s Daily Express was one of just two reporters invited to witness Britain’s invasion of Egypt. Standing on the bridge of a British warship, Edgar

Franklin Roosevelt pressed the red emergency button to stop the elevator on the way down to his private dining room. The King of Saudi Arabia was waiting for him, but the President wanted to smoke a couple of cigarettes first. It was 11:30 in the morning on Valentine’s Day, 1945.

By 1970, US commanders in Vietnam were optimistic that they had “functionally severed” North Vietnamese forces.

The US has revived a Cold War dating policy in China: if she’s into you, assume she’s a spy. Four US government personnel stationed in China have anonymously told the media that every government worker and contractor stationed in China was explicitly banned from having sexual or romantic relationships with

Yesterday I wrote to you that something very fishy was going on in the bond market. And not just fishy— potentially destructive for the federal government and US economy. For the past several days, US government bond yields have been surging at a rate not seen since at least 2008.

Countless people around the world are dumbfounded and dismayed in the wake of this tariff chaos. And, ironically, the sentiment was probably best captured by Canada’s new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, who said, “While this is a tragedy, it is also the new reality.” He’s right on both counts. It
