The Dow’s 367-point plunge yesterday was driven by the very crisis we’ve been writing you about: The surging price of oil and other commodities.
And there’s no time to waste.
Early this morning, Larry arrived in Asia.
I fly back from Brazil Monday.
Then, at noon on Thursday, we go online to report from the field and give you an urgent strategy update, entitled …
The Global Resource Explosion:
Why It’s Just Beginning.
How to Jump in Now.
Registration is free. (Just click here.)
And it couldn’t be more timely. Indeed, just six years ago …
- A barrel of crude oil cost $27. This week, it topped $90.
- An ounce of gold sold for $275. This week, the yellow metal flirted with the $770 level.
- The CRB Index, representing 16 major commodities, was in the 180s. Today, it’s in the 450s — 250% higher and at a new, all-time record.
So the question now is:
Will You Grab Your Share
Of the Profits This Great
Resource Price Explosion
Is Spinning off Right Now?
Please consider this question carefully — because there is now every indication that the gains we’ve seen in these commodities so far will pale in comparison to the profits we’ll see from here on.
The evidence: In 1971, the CRB Index reached a high of 1,047 (in today’s dollars). Now, it’s still at less than HALF its peak value.
The cause: Three supertrends created this great price explosion, and each one of them is now accelerating …
Supertrend #1
One of the Greatest Wealth
Explosions in History
The decline of socialism and the rise of free trade have triggered history’s greatest economic explosion in China, India and the former Soviet states.
Massive new demand for energy and raw materials at tens of thousands of new construction, manufacturing, and transportation companies in these emerging economies is driving natural resource prices sky high.
Plus, more than three billion human beings in these emerging nations — approximately half of the world’s entire population — are now demanding what you already have — a home with a refrigerator and stove … a private car or motorcycle … a cell phone … closets filled with clothes … and pantries with food.
And remember: Every one of those products is made from raw materials, requiring energy to manufacture and ship. So this massive demand is driving commodity prices through the roof, with no end in sight.
Supertrend #2
Dwindling Supplies of
Critical Resources
There are only 41 years worth of proven oil reserves left on Earth.
No major new oil fields have been discovered in more than 35 years.
More than 90% of the oil pumped today comes from wells that are at least 20 years old — and those oil fields are now in decline.
Plus, there hasn’t been a single new oil refinery built in America since 1976 — and the number of operational refineries is falling fast. In 1981, the U.S. had 324 oil refineries. Today, there are just 132.
No Matter Which Commodity You
Look at, the Story is Similar …
- Gold: In South Africa, gold production has fallen to its lowest level since the great strike of 1922 — 85 years ago. Worldwide, while gold demand has jumped 14% since 2001, gold production has fallen 7%.
- Other metals: For copper, nickel, zinc and tin — no new mine shafts have been sunk in 20 years. No lead smelter has been built in America since 1969.
- Uranium: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports that the world’s supply of low-cost uranium will vanish within 20 years.
- Grains: For the first time in history, the world is consuming more food than it produces. Wheat stockpiles have fallen to a 34-year low. Ditto for other grains.
This is simple economics 101:
Soaring demand from three billion new consumers in the world’s fastest-growing economies …
is colliding with …
Shrinking supplies of key resources.
This means prices go up, and that’s precisely what they’re doing — fast.
Supertrend #3
The U.S. Dollar Is Falling
Like a Meteorite
The days when the U.S. government backed the dollar with gold or silver bullion are long gone. Also gone are the days when the U.S. Federal Reserve or the U.S. Treasury made a real effort to support the dollar in foreign exchange markets.
Sure, it’s backed by the “good faith and credit” of the U.S. government. But these days, that and five bucks will get you a cup of Starbucks coffee.
That’s the most fundamental reason the dollar is at its lowest level in history, and still falling.
It’s also a major reason why natural resources and other commodities are exploding in value.
And now …
With the housing bust forcing the Fed to kick the printing presses into hyper-drive …
With a blizzard of newly created dollars diminishing the value of every other dollar in circulation …
We are witnessing a whole new wave in the global resource price explosion!
This is why …
Natural Resource Expert Larry Edelson
And I Are Taking Extraordinary Steps
To Help You Protect Yourself and Profit
We saw this new price explosion coming weeks ago. So to help you grab massive profit potential from this historic bull market, we broke out our passports and began one of our most exciting fact-finding missions ever.
Our view: Anyone who claims he can spot the world’s most profitable investment opportunities from an armchair or an ivory tower is pulling your leg!
In today’s dynamic, fast-paced world, it takes “boots on the ground” — human intelligence and face-to-face fact-finding — to keep up with the supertrends that make fleet-footed investors rich.
And that’s especially true when you’re looking for the most profitable opportunities in the world’s single most explosive investment arena: Natural resources!
That’s why I’m in the interior of Brazil right now: Brazil is a natural resource treasure house that’s fueling Asia’s precedent-shattering explosion in manufacturing, construction and transportation.
My mission: To report on the supply side … identify the natural resources that offer you both skyrocketing demand and increasingly scarce supplies — and that are most likely to multiply your wealth in the months ahead.
I return Monday night.
And that’s why, early this morning, Larry Edelson landed in Asia: To personally assess the demand side of the natural resource equation — and to report on the massive, virtually irreversible mega-trends in China, India and other exploding Asian economies that are sending select natural resource stocks through the roof.
Why? Because the natural resource market is hands-down the world’s single most explosive investment area today … it’s spinning off profits like crazy … and our mission is to make sure you get your shot at the greatest profits!

And of course, if you had used even more aggressive investment vehicles to profit from these kinds of gains, you could have grabbed ten times more … even 20 times more!
We want you to be among the first investors in the world to profit from this highly sensitive money-making intelligence … and Larry and I want to give it to you personally — the minute I get back from Brazil!
At high noon Eastern Time on Thursday, October 25, Larry and I will join you online to show you what we’ve discovered … where the greatest natural resource profit opportunities are right now … and how you can best use this confidential information to multiply your profits throughout the rest of 2007 and in 2008.
