Three Tectonic Forces Are Converging

Yesterday’s article caused quite a stir.

By quick way of review, I outlined the fact that Money Printers (Governments and Central Banks) have crossed the “point of no return.” The key points were:

1. The pandemic and economic shutdowns opened the door to the greatest fiscal spending in the history of the world outside of World War II. And since crossing that threshold, governments have been unable to return to pre-pandemic levels of spending. Put another way, the world is now in a new era of fiscal dominance: one in which the kind of fiscal spending that is normally reserved for recessions has become the norm.

2. Central banks have abandoned any pretense of ending inflation and are already back in “easing mode.” The Fed has cut rates (six times), the European Central Bank (ECB) has cut rates eight times, the Bank of England (BoE) has cut rates seven times, and the Swiss National Bank (SNB) has cut rates six times. The Fed has also launched a new $40 billion per month open-ended QE program (that’s $480 billion in money printing per year).

Put simply, the two most powerful financial entities in the world (governments and central banks) have committed to a “new normal.” And that new normal has one primary beneficiary:

Hard assets.

It is not coincidence that gold is erupting higher priced in every major currency, nor is it coincidence that commodity prices have broken out of a 15+ year downtrend. Most concerning of all, agricultural commodities are breaking out to new highs in the context of a multi-year bull market (the Fed’s own research has revealed that food inflation is the single best predictor of future inflation).

There’s actually another major driver creating a “once in a lifetime” opportunity in the hard asset/ natural resource space.

The AI revolution.

Collectively, tech companies are committing over $600 BILLION per year to building out AI infrastructure. It is critical to note that this spending will occur regardless of whether or not AI delivers on its potential.

Think of it this way… A homebuilder HAS to buy lumber, cement, nails, wires, etc. regardless of whether the home sells or not. The same is true for the current AI buildout. The only difference is the “homebuilder” in for AI is Uncle Sam/ Big Tech, who have the DEEPEST pockets in the world.

And all of this will require a truly staggering amount of hard assets/ natural resources. A single 100 MW Hyperscale AI Data Center requires:

1. 1. Copper: ~2,200 tonnes for wiring, cooling loops, and power distribution — 3-4x more than a conventional data center
   2. Iron/steel: up to 14,000 tonnes for structural framework, transformers, generators
   3. Aluminum: ~1,200 tonnes — busbars, enclosures, cooling components
   4. Graphite: ~290 tonnes — backup power systems and UPS units
   5. Lead: ~240 tonnes — backup battery systems
   6. Nickel: ~220 tonnes — backup power and battery systems
   7. Cobalt: ~40 tonnes — backup batteries and UPS systems
   8. Lithium: ~30 tonnes — battery backup systems
   9. Water: up to 5 million gallons per day, ongoing — equivalent to a city of 50,000 people
   10. Power draw: 100–500 MW continuous, 24/7/365

And remember, this is happening regardless of how AI turns out. Big Tech/ the U.S./ China are fully committed to this process to the tune of $600+ BILLION per year.

All of this is fuel for a “once in a lifetime” opportunity in the hard asset/ natural resource space.

On that note, we just published a Special Investment Report concerning FIVE secret investments you can use profit from the next major bull run in precious metals miners.

The report is titled Survive the Inflationary Storm. And it explains my top precious metals plays, including their names, their symbols, and the resources they own. These are HIGH OCTANE positions that rallied 75%, 140%, 150%, 180%, 280% and an incredible 574% in 2025! And I wouldn’t be surprised to see them repeat this performance in 2026.

Normally I’d charge $499 for this report as a standalone item, but in light of what is unfolding today, we are making just 100 copies available to the public.
