Experts suggest three strategies to profit from this situation, emphasizing the importance of gold as a hedge against inflation and the declining dollar. The discussion includes insights from Nancy Davis and Mike McGlone on the implications of recent economic trends, including central bank actions and the potential for deflation. Additionally, Primerica Inc. reported a 7.4% increase in operating revenue, driven by growth in investment products and life insurance. We have a split market on our hands. Gold is ripping. Bonds are slipping. And stocks are chopping around, with new sectors looking to pick up the baton from tech. Here are three top ways our MoneyShow experts say you can profit. Mike Larson MoneyShow.com n this episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast , Nancy Davis, founder of Quadratic Capital Management, and Mike McGlone, senior macro strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, dive into what the end of a historic yield-curve inversion and a Fed cutting cycle could mean for investors – particularly in precious metals and bonds. Nancy breaks down why traditional bond benchmarks may not offer the safety many assume, while Mike explains what’s fueling gold’s breakout and why deflation risks are back on the radar. They also touch on central bank gold buying, ETF flows, and how investors can think about balancing inflation and deflation in their portfolios. It’s a timely look at the forces shaping bonds, gold, other commodities, and stocks as 2026 nears. Don’t forget: Both Nancy and Mike will be speaking at the 2025 MoneyShow/TradersEXPO Orlando, scheduled for Oct. 16-18 at the Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate. Click here to register. Sean Brodrick Weiss Ratings Daily Here’s a not-so-fun fact: If you’ve been holding dollars for the past 25 years, you’ve lost almost half your purchasing power. A strategic allocation to gold — through bullion, ETFs, or miners — can help you stay ahead of the erosion. The iShares Gold Trust (IAU) is one option. MORE FOR YOU The Fed’s own FRED database shows it: The greenback has dropped about 46.5% since the late 1990s. Gold, on the other hand, has been a rocket. Over the same time frame, gold has blasted higher by more than 1,052 (Editor’s Note: Sean is speaking at the 2025 MoneyShow/TradersEXPO Orlando, scheduled for Oct. 16-18. Click HERE to register.) That’s not a typo. While your dollars wilted, gold went vertical. Every trip to the grocery store or gas pump proves the point. The dollar buys less and less. That’s why a $1 bill today won’t even buy you a candy bar. Inflation is the silent tax on savers, quietly stripping away wealth year after year. Monetary Policy: The Federal Reserve’s policies, such as quantitative easing and low interest rates, have increased the money supply, contributing to inflation. Since 2000, expansive monetary policies, especially after the 2008 Great Financial Crisis and during the Covid-19 pandemic, injected trillions into the economy, diluting the dollar’s value. Fiscal Policy: The US national debt has grown from $5.6 trillion in 2000 to over $36.2 trillion in 2025. More recently, President Trump’s 2017 tax cuts and the 2025 “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” added to concerns about debt sustainability. Fed Crisis: Threats to Fed independence further undermined investor confidence and are an ongoing and increasing threat to the US dollar. For example, a single comment by Trump about dismissing the Fed chair on July 16 caused a 1.2% drop in the dollar within an hour. As the dollar goes lower, gold, which is priced in dollars, tends to go higher. You don’t need a vault in Switzerland to protect yourself. Funds like the SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) or IAU track the gold price and are easy to buy or sell through any brokerage account. So, what are you waiting for now? The dollar should continue to crumble. Your golden rocket awaits on the launch pad. Ben Reynolds Sure Passive Income Primerica Inc. (PRI) provides term life insurance to middle-income households in the US and Canada. On behalf of third parties, it also offers mutual funds, annuities, and other financial products. Primerica has demonstrated strong historical performance, with its earnings per share growing at a stellar compound annual rate of 15.6% over the past decade.. As of June 30, PRI insured more than 5.5 million lives and had approximately three million client investment accounts. The company’s product offerings are sold via a network of 152,592 licensed sales representatives who are independent contractors. On Aug. 6, PRI released its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30. The company’s total adjusted operating revenue increased by 7.4% year-over-year to $796 million during the quarter. Passive Income That was mostly driven by double-digit percentage growth in the Investment and Savings Products segment, with revenue of $298.3 million in the quarter. Term Life Insurance revenue increased 3%, while Corporation and Other Distributed Products revenue increased 5% for the quarter. Adjusted EPS of $5.46 (after backing out one-time items) grew 10.3% over the year-ago period. Adjusted diluted EPS beat the analyst consensus during the quarter by $0.26. Meanwhile, we believe Primerica offers a solid degree of financial safety. That is anchored by a consistently low dividend payout ratio, which has averaged just 16% over the past five years. It now stands at 20% based on this year’s expected EPS of $21.21. We expect Primerica to grow EPS at a rate of about 10% annually over the next five years. This growth will likely be driven by a mix of factors, including the continued expansion of its sales force. We also expect share repurchases to be a continued growth driver. ### Related Stocks - [PRI.US - Primerica](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PRI.US.md) - [GOLD.AU - ETFS Capital Ltd.](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOLD.AU.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | Primerica 股息上调突显其盈利实力和资本回报的平衡 | Primerica(纽约证券交易所代码:PRI)宣布其季度股息增加 15%,反映出第四季度和全年业绩强劲,超出分析师预期。每股 1.20 美元的新股息表明管理层对公司盈利能力和现金生成能力的信心。这一增幅以及持续的股票回购,突显了 Prim | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275782224.md) | | Primerica Inc. 第四季度来自持续经营业务的稀释每股收益上升至 6.13 美元,同比增长 23% | Primerica Inc. 报告称,第四季度来自持续运营的摊薄每股收益增长了 23%,达到 6.13 美元。该公司实现了创纪录的 ISP 销售,增长了 24%,客户资产价值上升了 15%,达到 1290 亿美元。第四季度收入为 4.568 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275658587.md) | | 达利欧最新深度访谈:美国处于秩序崩溃与内战边缘,黄金是唯一避险方舟 | 桥水达利欧发出重磅警告:美国已深陷 “第五阶段”,处于秩序崩溃与内战边缘。在债务失衡与政治极化下,黄金成为唯一 “非他人负债” 的避险方舟,应占投资组合的 5%-15%。达利欧建议以配置多样化与选择稳定居住地的方式来应对法币贬值与即将到来的 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275406996.md) | | 达利欧万字长文:旧秩序已死,世界重回 “丛林法则”,贸易战和资本战将成常态 | 达利欧宣告世界进入 “大周期” 第六阶段:1945 年后的世界秩序已瓦解,强权即公理,大国冲突将回归原始权力博弈,贸易战、技术战、资本战将常态化并可能升级为军事冲突。慕尼黑安全会议共识印证这一判断:旧秩序已不复存在,欧洲安全架构失效。达利欧 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276003775.md) | | 深圳市地方金融管理局发布进一步规范黄金市场经营行为的公开提示 | 深圳市地方金融管理局发布提示,企业和个人不得进行非法黄金交易,包括预定价交易、杠杆交易、延期交易等。禁止通过互联网平台进行黄金回收和预定价买卖,或以黄金托管、租赁、回购等名义进行非法集资。投资者需谨慎,本文不构成投资建议,责任自负。 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275837885.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
