Invest in gold & silver with Hard Assets Alliance: https://hardassetsalliance.com/?aff=WTH Legendary gold investor and businessman Pierre Lassonde joins Wealthion’s Trey Reik to reveal why we may be entering the most powerful gold bull market in 50 years. Lassonde, co-founder of Franco Nevada and creator of the famous “Lassonde Curve,” warns that exploding global debt, financial repression, and declining trust in the U.S. dollar are driving gold back to the center of the financial system. He explains why central banks are dumping dollars for gold, how China’s Shanghai Gold Exchange could soon set global prices, and why most investors are still missing out on this opportunity. Lassonde also highlights why silver is poised to outperform, why gold miners remain deeply undervalued, and why it is puzzling that the entire gold sector is still smaller than tech giants like Tesla or Nvidia. Most striking of all, he predicts gold could surge to $17,250 per ounce by 2030, a move that would reshape the global financial order. 💡Worried about debt, inflation, a fragile dollar, and gold soaring?
