Key Takeaways:
- Manipulators shape the story: Some people try to control what others focus on to influence how they think and invest.
- Gold is a steady way to measure value: Unlike the dollar, which loses value over time, gold stays more stable and reliable.
- Gold vs. the S&P 500 shows the real picture: Comparing the stock market to gold can give a clearer view of how well it’s really doing, since the dollar can be misleading.
- History shows the risks of leaving gold behind: In times like the 1970s and early 2000s, moving away from gold and using paper money (fiat currency) caused big changes in the economy.
- Follow economic cycles for better investing: Investors who understand the ups and downs of the economy can make smarter choices by adjusting their strategies to match the natural flow of the market.
