Rick Rule, founder of Rule Investment Media and former CEO of Sprott U.S. Holdings, joins Steve Barton to break down today’s natural resource markets, the implications of recent Fed policy, and the risks investors face amid growing economic complacency. He cautions that blind optimism and online hype are fueling poor decision-making, urging investors to take personal responsibility through study, discipline, and saving.

Rule outlines why commodities like gold, silver, and uranium remain essential holdings in an environment where traditional fiat-based savings are increasingly vulnerable. He shares his views on the volatility index (VIX), out-of-the-money options strategies, and the value of positioning ahead of fear-driven market shifts. He also warns that while opportunities are real, only informed and patient investors will succeed.

The discussion highlights Rule’s new venture, Battle Bank, which offers international CDs, high-yield savings, and self-directed retirement accounts backed by real assets. This interview is essential for anyone navigating global macro trends, commodity cycles, and the future of sound money. Be sure to like, share, and subscribe for more expert insights.

DISCLAIMER: I am not a financial advisor. This is not financial advice. I only express my opinion based on my experience, and your experience may be different. These videos are for educational and motivational purposes only. Investing of any kind involves risk. Do your own due diligence. Every investment and bet comes with the risk that your capital could go to zero.

WHAT I DO: I spread out my investments. It's not all on one thing. For every bet that I make, I devote one hour of study per month to that investment. I keep the number of bets to what I can feasibly study.
