    Consider the plight of tens of millions of over-extended American home owners who over-spent,found themselves totally out of cash, in debt up to their ears, and underwater on their homemortgages:

    How do you think a conversation with the mortgage bank would have gone, if the debt-ladenhome owner had stomped into the bank, pounded his fists on the president's desk and tried todictate new loan terms to his lender?

    Well, I suspect that was more or less the situation when Treasury Secretary Geithner paid asurprise visit to China's vice prime minister, Wang Qishan back in early April. The reportedtopic of discussion was whether, or when, China would end the virtually fixed exchange rate onits currency, the renminbi.

    Geithner no doubt argued that China's policy artificially lowers the cost of Chinese exports at theexpense of American exports and jobs. Economists generally agree that if Beijing allowed therenminbi to trade freely, the U.S. dollar will be 20-40 percent lower. Now I ask you, what

    2/22

    possible leverage could Geithner have thought he had against the country to which the U.S. is$2.4 trillion in debt?

    I'm certain what the media reported was totally different from what really transpired. And that'sa bad thing, because a distorted, manipulated picture makes for poor investment decisions.

    My intent with this Special Report is to expose the secret economic policies of President HuJintao, to explain why they have all but assured worldwide hyper-inflation, and to suggest somesimple strategies that will not only protect you against another catastrophic downturn, but helpyou double and redouble your money in the next two to three years.

    So what's really going on between America and its biggest lender?

    Publically, China's chief foreign-exchange regulator, Yi Gang said recently that...

    "China remains secure in its U.S. dollar-denominated holdings" ...and will remain a responsible

    investor avoiding the game of short-term currency speculation."

    Translation: all is well. We love America. We're not worried about your out-of-controlspending, your unemployment, the fact that you've been devaluing your currency by printing

    billions of "paper" dollars, nor the economic path down which your Congress has your countryheaded. We'd never think of not buying your Treasuries, we have complete confidence in thedollar and therefore have no reason to buy or hoard gold.

    For China to say anything else in public would instantly wreck havoc with the value of its $2.4trillion dollar-backed reserves!

    Privately, the Chinese are in a state of shock! They fear a collapse of the U.S. dollar that willdeflate the value of their dollar-backed reserves faster than a hat pin in a carnival balloon.

    When it comes to where to invest your money, it's important to pay closer attention to what people and governments do, rather than what they say. Case in point: consider George Soros'srecent behavior regarding gold.

    Soros made headlines recently by suggesting gold prices were a bubble - implying that investorsshould lighten up on their gold holdings. Naturally, that sent gold prices down.

  • 8/9/2019 Dr Leeb on Gold

    3/22

    Not long after, however, Soros quietly bought $75 million worth of shares in one of my favorite junior gold development picks . No fan fair nor publicity. And this wasn't Soros' first purchaseof the stock. His company had previously bought some 3.5 million shares.

    This junior gold company is not in production yet, but it owns some very large gold and copper

    deposits in North America. If we're right about the direction gold and commodity prices areheaded, this roughly-$7 dollar stock could deliver some very big returns over the next few years.

    Obviously Soros would not be loading up on to his junior gold shares if he really believed gold prices were headed lower. It's a classic example of saying one thing and doing another.

    Like Soros, the Chinese government is telling you one thing and doing the opposite. China'sofficials are deliberately talking down the price of gold to give themselves a better chance of

    buying more at a lower price.

    China says it has total and complete confidence in the strength of the U.S. dollar and has no need

    to buy gold. Two Chinese officials recently made public remarks to the effect that... "Chinashouldn't make gold a major part of its reserves because of gold's volatile 30-year tradinghistory."

    But, meanwhile, Beijing is secretly scheming with private and public Chinese companies and buying up as much of the world's gold supply as it can, as quickly as it can without triggering a buying panic.

    ...by denying that top Chinese economic advisors are unanimous that the U.S. dollar is in serioustrouble and that his country is hiding its gold buying by making purchases through both private

    and public companies that do not have to report gold holdings to the IMF .

    Gold has become a de facto currency, a much stronger currency than the dollar or the euro. The best way for China to make sure it can afford to buy the commodities it needs to continue itsincredible expansion is to acquire as much gold now (at currently-low prices) as it can.

    Of course, Beijing can't wade into the gold market in any serious way without driving up the price, but the government is encouraging citizens to load up on the precious metal. Private

  • 8/9/2019 Dr Leeb on Gold

    4/22

    owners are not required to tell the IMF how much gold they hold, but it's estimated that Chinesecitizens own about 3,000 tons.

    The Chinese government now owns 1,054 metric tons of gold (up from 600 metric tons in 2003)making it the world's fifth-largest gold holder. Although Beijing may be unable to raid the open

    gold market, the Chinese government is buying all of the country's own gold production, about300 tons a year and the world's largest.

    I say again:China is stockpiling gold in anticipation of a collapse of the U.S. dollar and rapid escalationof commodity prices.

    Is China right about the U.S. dollar? Consider this:

    In 1913, when the Federal Reserve was created with the duty of preserving the dollar, one $20 bill could buy one 20-dollar gold piece. Today, it takes more than fifty $20 bills to buy one 20-

    dollar gold piece. Under the Fed's custody, the U.S. dollar has lost 98 percent of its value. Thedollar is the storehouse of America's wealth and thanks to reckless spending and bad economic policy, our country is in serious threat of a devastating run on the bank.

    While China has been going to great lengths to declare its faith in the dollar and hold down the price of gold, I've been warning subscribers to Leeb's Real World Investing that serious inflationis coming, that commodities are headed way higher. I've been recommending a variety of waysto invest in the coming gold boom, including a junior gold company with huge upside potential.

    Right now, if you hurry, you can still buy this stock for around $7 or $8. I think that as goldmoves toward $2,000 an ounce this stock has the potential to outdo each new high in gold prices

    by a factor of two or even three. If gold doubles from here, this gem of a company could return200% or even 400% on its $7-$8 price.

    Barron's recently published an article on my favorite gold pick, in which it reported the companywas sitting on world-class gold and copper properties.

    George Soros is not the only savvy investor who has shown an interest in my number one junior gold company.

    Remember John Paulson, arguably the most successful hedge fund operator over the past 10years? He's the guy who made billions by betting against the housing market in 2007-8, and had

  • 8/9/2019 Dr Leeb on Gold

    5/22

    a prior record of annual gains in the high teens. Well, he recently acquired a $100 million stakein my favorite junior gold company.

    In an inflationary world filled with risk, gold remains the outstanding investment. But, whilelarge mining companies, in my opinion, should at least double as the price of gold climbsinexorably to $2,000, you could see multiple baggers from the compelling junior you'll discover in your FREE Special Report.

    I'll give you all the details on the company and why I'm expecting a double...triple...maybe evena four-bagger out of this $7 stock in a FREE Special Report I've prepared, G old's Second Wind,The Coming of $2,000 an Ounce G old.

    So, what does all this talk about China and gold have to do with the U.S. economy? And howshould it influence what you do with your money now?

    Let's review: at the beginning of the twenty-first century, the US economy was eight timeslarger than China's. A decade later, the figure was down to four times. China's $4.9 trillioneconomy has already surpassed Germany's to become the world's third largest, and is on courseto overtake current No.2-Japan-this year.

    China become the world's largest exporter in 2002. In 2009 it shipped some $1.2 trillion worthof exports. Chinese factories employ low-paid workers to assemble everything from iPods and

    the latest computers, to running shoes, clothing, toys and myriad household items that populatethe shelves of America's discount stores.

    China has also overtaken the US as the world's largest auto market and largest auto producer.Two decades ago, a car industry barely existed in China. Chinese car maker Geely International

    just bought out the venerable Volvo name.

    Steel output for 2009 was estimated at 565 million tons, up 13% year over year. ExcludingChina, global steel output fell 23% from 2008. And while European and US banks were under siege from the global financial crisis, Chinese banks emerged from the turmoil relativelyunscathed.

    When the world wide recession struck, China's rock-solid banking system enabled Beijing toquickly inject liquidity into the economy with a highly effective stimulus program of some 4trillion Yuan.

    Thanks to a China-ASEAN free trade agreement that went into effect on January 1st, Beijing isnow in a position to build new trading alliances, creating the world's third-largest free trade blocand undermining US influence in South East Asia.

    The combined population of the free trade bloc is 1.9 billion people with a combined GDP of $6trillion. Already, the ASEAN countries are providing the raw materials and manufacturing partsfor assembly hubs operating in China. And according to the Asian Development Bank, about

    60% of China-ASEAN made goods end up in European, Japanese, and US markets.Beginning to get the picture? While Washington is hopelessly deadlocked by partisan politics,China's President Hu Jintal has the absolute power to do whatever he thinks is in the best interestof his country.

    Chinese leaders are not puppets to public opinion polls, they need not answer to a fickleelectorate every two years. Their long-term goal for China's 1.3 billion citizens is prosperity anda better life and they have the luxury of being ruthless and pragmatic when necessary to achievetheir goals.

    Last year, the big surprise was how quickly China's economy rebounded from the "GreatRecession".

    Incredibly China's GDP came in at a red-hot 8.7% for 2009. Its industrial production was up

    18.5% from the previous year, and imports rebounded to an all-time high of $112 billion inDecember, reflecting massive stockpiling of key commodities. Some 12.7 million cars were soldin China last year, up an astonishing 44% over the previous year after Beijing cut taxes on smallcars and offered $730 million in subsidies to get people to buy SUVs, pickups and minivans.

    As a result, China also imported a record 5 million barrels per day of crude oil last December,and has already lined up deals with Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq for more crude oil for thisyear. As a result of so much so quickly...

    Inevitably, since July '09, China's spending spree on the key commodities it needs for expansionhas fueled a rapid escalation of prices.

    The Dow Jones Commodity Index, measured in Chinese Yuan, has made a stunning U-turn,rebounding sharply from an annualized rate of decline of 52% in July 2009, to positive inflationrate of 23% today.

    It's not surprising that the Chinese Consumer Price Index was 1.9% higher in December than ayear earlier, driven by a 5% rise in food prices.

    Officials at the People's Bank of China are already worried that the consumer price deflationexperienced through most of 2009 has quickly turned into escalating inflation in 2010.

    If the PBoC doesn't tighten its monetary policy, consumer price inflation could easily accelerateat a 6% clip this year. And with food and energy accounting for half of China's consumer price

    basket, soaring commodity prices are a ticking time bomb.

    China emerged from the worldwide recession first and strongest, so it's only natural that China iswhere we're seeing the first glimpse of the inevitable inflation.

    China is not just stockpiling gold, it's building up critical reserves of every commodity while prices remain relatively low compared to where they're likely to be a year or so down the road.

    Regardless of the official word out of Beijing, pressure is mounting for China to allow itscurrency to rise relative to the dollar. When this happens, an unpleasant consequence (which US

    policymakers have given absolutely no thought to) is likely to be another leg up in thecommodity bull market.

    A stronger yuan makes commodities even less expensive to the Chinese and creates even greater reason to invest its massive currency reserves in something other than depreciating greenbacks.

    This is not mere speculation on our part: Chinese officials have already signaled their intensionto stockpile more commodities.

    What's more, as the U.S. shows signs of recovery and begins to compete again with China for finite supplies of critical commodities, the forces of supply and demand will lead to hyper-

    inflation here as well.

    Just as we saw the price of crude escalate from $38 a barrel to $139 in less than a year, crude isup more than doubled from its 2009 low. Fortunately, the year-over-year rate of change in crudehas dropped off significantly since the start of the year. That gives the economy some breathingroom, although we're no means out of the woods. From a purely technical perspective, the nextleg up should carry the price of crude up to the $100 a barrel area before it encounters significantoverhead resistance. And that level would once again push us into the danger zone.

    But crude oil is only part of the inflation story. So too are prices of other vital commoditiesshowing signs of runaway inflation. The tentacles of China's ambitions reach every corner of the

    world and are in the process of sucking up the vital commodities it requires to realize its dreamsand sending prices through the roof.

    Since their recent lows...

    Worth watching are changes in industrial commodity prices, which have climbed to their highestlevel since the outset of the financial crisis. For this we like to track the CRB Raw Industrials, anindex is comprised of a wide range of commodities, such as hides, tallow, copper scrap, leadscrap, steel scrap, zinc, tin, burlap, cotton, print cloth, wool tops, rosin, and rubber.

    This is a favorite benchmark for several reasons. In many respects these are the basic building blocks of the economy, used in a wide array of products. Many of these commodities aren't

  • 8/9/2019 Dr Leeb on Gold

    9/22

    traded in the futures pits and therefore aren't subject to speculation that could periodically distorttheir true value. They therefore offer insights into both economic activity and inflation trends.

    And the gains we've seen in the last year suggest that should such rapid growth continue wecould quickly segue into a period of high inflation.

    The US economy is in the midst of a tepid recovery that should run for at least a few moremonths. But we could very well slide back into recession later this year. Key indicators of thishappening include stagnating employment, more weakness in the housing sector and noimprovement in bank lending. Certainly the EU's slowdown in the fourth quarter (to just 0.1

    percent, from 0.3 in the third quarter) doesn't bode well.

    It's worth noting what happened during previous anemic expansionary periods. Canada's GluskinSheff & Associates has done some work in this area, identifying five previous brief expansionshere in the US during the last 60 years, each of which lasted a mere 12 quarters or less. In eachof those periods, the peak in economic growth occurred in the first or second quarter of the

    recovery. While it's not official yet, many economists are pointing to the third quarter of last year as marking the end of the recession. So it won't be surprising if we learn with the benefit of hindsight that...

    ...we may already have seen the peak rate of growth in economic activity during this short-lived expansion!

    Yes, the U.S. economy now shows clear signs of growth. Most likely, the growth rate willexceed 3% for the first quarter and the next one as well.

    However, the second half of this year doesn't look quite as rosy. By then, much of the

    government's economic stimulus will start to wear off. Three percent growth over the next fewmonths could prompt Chairman Bernanke to start cutting back monetary stimulus in the fall aswell. That could have a negative effect on the market.

    In many ways the current recovery is most akin to the expansion that occurred from 1971 to1973: weak economic growth coupled with rapid monetary stimulus that threatens to give way tomounting inflationary pressures. The stock market rally during that time lasted 17 months. Asimilar performance today would mean a stock market peak in August or September. Also using1971-73 as a guidepost, the stock market's upside from the peak in the rate of economic growthwas less than 10 percent, which would cap the return this time around at less than five percentabove today's prices.

    Pressure is mounting for China to allow their currency to rise relative to the dollar. When thishappens, an unpleasant consequence (to which US policymakers have given absolutely nothought) is likely to be another leg up in the commodity bull market.

    A stronger yuan makes commodities less expensive for the Chinese and it gives Beijing an evengreater reason to invest their massive currency reserves in something other than depreciatinggreenbacks. With $2.4 trillion in its bank China can indulge in the greatest spending binge of alltime. This is not mere speculation on our part: Chinese officials have already signaled their intension to stockpile more commodities.

    During the last period of yuan appreciation (that ended with the financial crisis), industrialcommodity prices essentially doubled. We won't venture a guess as to how high they'll rise thistime around, but we can say it will add to the inflationary pressures here, and perhapssignificantly so.

    Of course, we're talking about the long-term here, not the next six months. Nonetheless,commodities are the building blocks of our modern lifestyle. If you think governments have ahard time controlling their spending, just wait until the world is forced to control itsconsumption. For a society built on wanting and consuming ever more stuff, the withdrawalsymptoms could be as painful as what a heroin addict experiences in rehab.

    Don't shoot us; we're just the messengers.

    In the world of the future, the stocks that deliver the best performance may be quite differentfrom those which were profitable ten years ago.

    Fortunately, we're already holding what are likely to be the new growth stocks for thisenvironment. Gold stocks in particular are set to be the biggest beneficiaries.

    If double-digit inflation is inevitable and the buying power of your dollars is about to evaporate,what should you do now?

    The obvious answer (not so easily executed) is to put your money in the things that are likely togo up in value. Some of them could be stocks of companies tied to the limited commodities thatare vital to the rest of the world's expansion. Copper, iron, chromium, nickel, platinum, tin,uranium and all the commodities we've talked about that are necessary for industry and growth

    but limited in supply-these are the real world things you need to buy and hold on to.

    As demand increases and supply dwindles and inflation muscle in on the equation, you're goingto see the prices of many commodities double, triple and then double again.Look what happened to commodity prices in general during the last period of runaway inflation:

    It's already begun to happen again. Your key to big profits this time around is knowing whichcompanies stand to gain the most.

    You may be thinking that, because $80-something a-barrel crude is down from last year's high,that inflation is not a threat. You may be tempted to think that because gold is down a bit from itsrecent high that the trend is down.

    But I'm sorry to say that you need to brace yourself for a patch of 70s-style heavy duty, across-the-board inflation! It's going to happen again, in spades! Only this time, it could be even worse

    because we are now in a time of convergence of multiple exponential curves: energy, food,water, population growth, mineral and energy depletion are ganging up to create the perfectstorm.

    Look-when the price of sulphur, (a critical component of fertilizer) goes from $50 to $650 a tonin 13 months (that's an inflationary gain of 1,200%) you know something is up.

    The good news is- it's not too late to jump on the commodities band wagon and not only protectthe buying power of your nest egg, but grow it as well! Yes, crude oil is up more than 100%from its recent low, but if you accept that crude will be trading back at its 2008 high before verylong, that represents a huge gain on your money!

    If inflation is going to be as bad as we say, it should be a snap to make a ton of money simply byinvesting in commodities, right

    Wrong! If you care about risk and asset protection, as well as maximizing your gains, youalmost certainly don't have the necessary time nor the resources for the research needed toidentify the best of the best. Hitch your wagon to stocks that will benefit from inflation and youwill undoubtedly make some money, but Leeb's Real World Investing can help you make evenmore money!

    We're firm believers in owning a portfolio mix of established gold mining companies along with promising, smaller outfits that offer the potential for outsized gains though organic reserveadditions. For example, another of our recommendations: a Vancouver, BC-based companythat's going to the far ends of the earth in search of minerals deposits.

    The company's primary focus is on the Oyu Tolgoi copper and gold deposit in Mongolia's Gobidessert one of the world's largest undeveloped copper and gold resources. The Oyu Tolgoi tendis actually a series of deposits that stretches for 20 kilometers (more than 12 miles). All told, thetrend contains nearly 21 million ounces of gold (do the math, that's about $21 billion worth of gold) measured and indicated as well as nearly 40.7 billion pounds of copper.

    We're big on diversification. Here's an example of a mid-tier gold producer that werecommended via a Trade Alert. You'll find all the details in your FREE special Report. This isa gold producer with operations centered in Africa. This is one you ought to know about too. Thecompany's two world-class mines are yielding high-grade ore at very low operating costs. Thecompany greatly increased its reserve estimates recently and further increases in those assets arelikely to follow.

    This highly profitable company produced 260,000 ounces of gold in 2008 and is on its way tomining 400,000 ounces of gold in 2009 and half a million ounces in 2010. All in all, this Africangold miner offers one of the best growth profiles in the gold sector.The stock is traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange and here in the U.S. on the pink sheets.

    Those are just two examples of our Investment Portfolio recommendations. While not all of themare in the plus column...

    Oil has shot from $35 to close to $90 since January 2009. Yet the price of this other major energy source-which usually moves in tandem with oil-has actually fallen 50%. As a subscriber,you'd already know what I'm referring to.

    I hope you'll find out soon for yourself, because this huge, almost-obvious profit opportunitywon't last much longer. As oil prices continue rising, due to continued strong demand in thedeveloping world, this second energy commodity could switch to the catch-up fast track.

    Oil passed its production peak two or three years ago. Coal is still cheap, but wary of being"Gore-d'. Clean natural gas prices are starting to climb. Nuke power is coming back big time.

    Wind and solar are less reliable, but getting cheaper every year. And engineered geothermalsystems hold immense promise (20 centuries of energy right underneath the US)!Yes, all these sound exciting, but none of these are the hottest needles in the energy haystack !

    - The aggressive Wyoming exploration and production driller that has grown 3,000% in the lastseven years. Its production has increased at a compounded growth rate of 60% a year for fiveyears.

    Over the next ten years, you'll need an investment portfolio that will do well during the comingwave of inflation while at the same time insuring yourself against possible bouts of deflation

    (and war or economic collapse).

    By far your best hedge is gold. It's more steady than oil, and in fact, is such a matchless store of value in tough times that Roosevelt felt it necessary to confiscate it to keep people from

    protecting themselves.

    Right now, gold is cheap. Over the past forty years or so, the ratio between gold and oil has beenabout 18 to 1. At this writing, that ratio is well under 14 to 1. But we expect gold to reach at least$5,000 within a decade.

    Often, gold will even overshoot that historical average if inflation is high enough. Thus, gold

    could easily trade at 30 times the price of oil. That means with oil at $200, gold could reach$6,000.

    In G old's Second Wind, The Coming of $2,000-an-Ounce G old! you will find direct pipelinesinto fast profits in other precious metals as well. For instance:

    Let me tell you a little about these coins and why they are so special. First, they are beautifulcoins to hold and display. Authorized by Congress in 1985 and first minted in 1986, your Silver Eagle is pure 0.999 fine silver, the finest silver coin ever minted and distributed in the U.S.A.Your coin contains one troy ounce of pure silver and measures 1.598 (or 40.6mm) in diameter with a thickness of 0.117 or 2.98mm.

    The design on the front is based on the U.S. 'Walking Liberty' half dollar first minted in 1916and designed by the German-immigrant sculptor, Adolph Alexander Weinman, who alsodesigned the famous U.S. 'Mercury' dime. The reverse side of the coin features a bald eagleshield, with 13 stars, representing the 13 original American Colonies, positioned above theeagle's head.

    They are America's only official investment grade silver bullion coin, and with silver becomingan increasingly scarce precious metal, they can make a handsome and worthwhile addition to anyinvestment portfolio.

    If you assess the value of these 4 coins on their silver content alone, they would be worthroughly $80 at today's silver prices, however, I'm certain silver prices will move considerablyhigher as reserves are failing to keep up with demand.
