Censorship: A Means To Control

McAlvany Weekly Commentary

Gold Rapidly Squeezing Out The Petrodollar Hillary Calls For Censorship, "Or We'll Lose Control" Sign Up For the Hard Asset Advantage Webinar - Click Here "The gold market is at a very interesting juncture with the central banks basically flipping the script. They're not interested in Treasurys anymore. They're not interested in US dollar assets anymore. They are interested in something that they're in control of. I think they're interested in gaining control even as others around the world are trying to keep control. If you care about any control, whether it's personal autonomy or how a nation operates, you do have to pay attention to the gold market because it's telling you there's a tussle afoot. How this plays out is going to be absolutely critical, not only to your personal, social, and political freedoms, but also to your financial and economic well-being." — David McAlvany Kevin: Welcome to the McAlvany Weekly Commentary. I'm Kevin Orrick, along with David McAlvany. Well, as advertised, Dave, I told you last week, I love this last weekend because we have clients that come in who are investors on the platform. Man, we just sat down and talked. We shared the same worldview and ideologies. Even though the McAlvany Wealth Management platform is really doing well this year in returns, nobody really cared. They wanted to talk to the people who were managing it. They wanted to talk about the ideas, what's going on in the world, what do we see going forward, what do they see. That's one of the things that I really love about this place, Dave. Like I said last week, it's the ideology, the worldview, the philosophy, and the relationship. David: Well, let me put it in slightly different terms. I think where the emphasis continues to be is on our process, on the thesis, on a very unique team dynamic, which is driven out of that process. Of course, we tend to get along, we like each other. If you're interested in kicking the tires this Thursday, we have a webinar Thursday 10:00 AM Mountain called "The Hard Asset Advantage." What we do for clients, because we're talking about specific companies and things, there's some SEC requirements that'd be exclusively for clients, but this is a more general look at the thesis at what our process entails, who is on the team, and they'll each be sharing as we go through "The Hard Asset Advantage." If you want to register for the call, you can do so. Just follow the link on the show notes. Thursday 10:00 AM Mountain this week, join us. Kevin: Well, and the various members of the team, the presentations were just great. In fact, you just had Morgan re-present his presentation to us just briefly in the meeting that we were in with the company here just a few minutes ago. But what a weekend, Dave. I mean, it starts Thursday, our clients come in, there's meet and greet, and then on Friday, the whole day is really wrapped up with presentations. A lot of charts and graphs, but a lot of meaning behind those, and then a dinner that night. And then Saturday, we privately meet with clients. Those were great meetings, but, Dave, I went home and napped after that. My wife was like, "You must be exhausted." And you, what did you do? You took your boys climbing and then you flew to Denver, went to a Bronco game. David: Right. No, it was a busy weekend. Exactly, we had the client interactions. It's Saturday. Friday was eight to two. Kevin: Yeah. David: And by the way, the Thursday deal, expect that to be about an hour. Very different than what we had. Kevin: Oh, the one coming up here? David: Yes. Yes. Because we went from eight to two in all of our presentations and the Q&A that followed. We will not go that long. It'll be an abbreviated overview of the process, thesis, the team dynamics, and things like that, looking at the four areas of hard assets that we diversify across. Yeah, what a weekend. I realized that with all the client interactions,
