I can see the White House lawn from my hotel room, and down below President Trump’s helicopter just landed.
A gang of reporters have been eagerly awaiting him all morning.
What news now, of the trade war? Will he ease his stance on China? Are there any updates on tariffs?
The markets continue to hang on each word, trying to find hints about what comes next.
Several blocks away from me is the Fed, which is surrounded by cranes and construction tape (it’s under a multi-year renovation).
Other than the bustle of construction workers, there’s no signs of activity from Jerome Powell and his Board of Governors.
It’s a fitting analogy for the busy, but vague, attitude we’ve seen from this office in Washington.
A few reporters are hanging out here as well — but it’s hard to get a good photo op with so many protective sheets draping the Fed buildings.
The District seems to be stuck in an exhausted 24/7 loop for more news.
Reporters are busy, but bored — in a humdrum churn of perpetual uncertainty that never ends.
I can feel it from the quiet of my hotel room.
And my guess is that you’re feeling it as well, wherever you are.
So what now?
My advice remains the same as it’s been all this year: tune out all the reporters and start listening to someone who actually has a plan.
And that someone is Gerardo Del Real.
In this endless loop of “what comes next” he’s consistently risen above the cycle of fear and discomfort that’s gripped Wall Street.
For Gerardo, commodities are king, and that’s where he’s kept his attention.
Gold remains above $3,300 — a number Gerardo has been predicting for months now.
But it’s not only gold.
Other commodities are seeing activity as well, including copper, silver, uranium, and other key resources that America’s industries can’t make do without.
And Gerardo has a plan to capitalize on the price moves that lay ahead.
Just a few weeks ago I had the chance to sit down with Gerardo at his home in Austin, Texas, and ask him about his strategy for times like this.
He outlined what he’s been telling his readers of Junior Resource Monthly, and why we’ve seen so much activity from the resource space.
Even more importantly, he explains why we’re at the beginning of a commodity supercycle that’ll continue to yield growth for investors.
My conversation with Gerardo was a refreshing change from the talking heads that fill the news.
As nice as the view is from my hotel room, Gerardo’s outlook is ultimately the one that offers a glimpse of where we should head next as investors — see it for yourself.
Make it your own,
