SPC Weekender: Quantum Today, Silver Tomorrow
We find the Wealth Builder storylines, then we show you how to profit ...
In case you missed it in Stock Picker’s Corner (SPC) …
In our 2025 SPC Forecast series, Peter Krauth (author of The Great Silver Bull) predicted that silver will hit $40 by the end of 2025; it's already up 11% on the year. That’s not a surprise to us: Peter nailed his price-call prediction for us here last year, too. Those near-term gains are great. But they’re nothing compared to what’s ahead. To show you, we created a free silver-investing guide — “introductory” enough for first-timers and deep enough for seasoned precious-metals investors. Learn about this emerging (and unique) situation, where to buy, what to buy, how to secure your silver, and the types of silver stocks and ETFs you can invest in.
In our Monday Morning Kickoff for our SPC Premium members this past Monday, Matt Warder of The Coal Trader stopped by to share his latest intel on the coal market. Uncertainty abounds, weighing on most commodity producers in his near-term outlook. But there’s one company he says is a “buy” at its current price of around $50, and he would back the proverbial truck up if this stock goes below $40. That’s because shares could double or triple by the end of the decade.
In the latest chapter of the “Rise and Fall … and Rise (Again)” story for quantum computing, D-Wave Quantum Inc. QBTS 0.00%↑ announced that its Advantage 2 system took a mere 20 minutes to solve a problem that would take the world’s most powerful supercomputers 1 million years to figure out. Quantum computing has very real applications, but just as online shopping, smartphones, and a lot of the tech promises of the late 1990s took longer-than expected to gain traction, speculation can sprint ahead of reality. We’ll show you how to position yourself as a Wealth Builder (and avoid all the Wealth Killer traps) in quantum computing in the report below.
Earlier this week, Chief Stock Picker Bill Patalon shared the maximum: “Money is made in bull markets, but fortunes are made in bear markets.”
One person who put that into action was Sir John Templeton, one of the most successful investors in history. His fund averaged 15% returns per year for 38 years, and he sold it for $913 million in 1992 … the equivalent of $2.08 billion today. In an interview with The Investor’s Podcast Network, Lauren Templeton, the President of Templeton & Phillips Capital Management, shared that her great uncle made a list of stocks he wanted to buy if they ever went on sale and would pull that list out if there was a sell-off … the kind we’ve seen over the last several weeks. He also followed these 10 maximums that created his fortune.
That’s it for this week.
