Countdown to Trump’s Next War
Donald Trump is making more tariff threats…
Targeting a specific set of countries accused of having “anti-American” policies.
Wall Street is acting like it’s just another day in the Oval Office.
But Jim Rickards says the president is actually telegraphing his next move — and could pull the trigger as early as July 9!
While most investors will be taken by surprise, you have a chance to position yourself for profits ahead of Trump’s announcement.
More details after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum…
Your Top Stories & Analysis of the Week:
- “The End of Visa and Mastercard” (Paradigm Pressroom’s 5 Bullets, Dave Gonigam): Stablecoins are one of the hottest topics in cryptocurrencies. Dave explains what makes them so special — and why they could make credit cards extinct. He also looks at Elon Musk’s threat to start a new political party and digs into Jerome Powell’s lavish spending at the Federal Reserve. Then he ends with a story about a state government using eminent domain to help a Bitcoin miner. It’s not hard to see why this was the most-liked 5 Bullets last week!
- “Americans First” (The Rundown, Matt Inlsey): Last election, Matt supported one candidate. His neighbor supported the other. They hadn’t really talked to each other since then — until Matt decided to do something about it. His simple act reveals a bigger truth about the United States… even when everything feels so divided. He posted it on July 4, and it quickly became one of the week’s most-liked e-letters.
- “The Case for Treasuries” (The Situation Report with Jim Rickards, Jim Rickards): The budget legislation that Donald Trump signed is likely to send the country even deeper in debt. But there is a lot of misinformation about what it means for the U.S. bond markets. Jim recently told his Situation Report members why the mainstream narrative is wrong — and how you can profit from Wall Street’s misconceptions. It was one of his most-liked stories last week, sharing a side of the story most people haven’t heard. That’s why I unlocked his analysis for you!

The Reader Forum:
First in the Forum today, Ray A. left us a five-star Google review, adding:
I've really enjoyed my membership with Paradigm. They have assembled a fantastic group of guys who have expertise in so many areas. I have learned a lot and have profited financially with their help.
If you’re reading this, Ray, thanks for taking the time to leave us such a nice review! I know our team is top-notch, but I love knowing that our members agree.
I’m also glad to hear that our research has made you wiser and wealthier. Please keep us updated on your successes!
Next, Marc S. tells James Altucher:
I’m writing to thank you for the recommendations this year in your True Alpha service. I’ve made a bunch of 100%+ gains on options trades.
Congratulations on those big wins, Marc! But I wonder if you’re being too modest… because James and Senior Analyst Zach Scheidt have been on a real hot streak.
In the past few weeks alone, members have had chances to lock in gains as high as 210% with Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR)... 918% with Mp Materials Corp. (MP)... and 1,077% with Quantum Computing Inc. (QUBT)...
It really shows how the right stock options can magnify your gains to incredible heights!
And finally for today, Joe B. asks:
Dustin, what is your opinion on the bond market right now? Do you expect a big drop in it very soon?
I assume you’re not asking me personally, Joe. I merely work with some of the best financial minds on the planet… so I don’t claim to have any expert knowledge.
But I do pay attention to what our team is saying.
You’ll notice that one of today’s Top Stories has Jim’s latest thoughts on Treasury bonds. They have also been a hot topic in our editorial meetings.
Just last week, Enrique Abeyta told us, “bond yields are doing just fine. It’s a big snooze fest.”
Chris Cimorelli agrees… but also thinks bond investors might have small panic attacks in the weeks ahead. If so, there will be some great trading opportunities before the summer ends.
When the time comes, you’ll want to turn to our team for in-depth analysis and recommendations!
That wraps up this week’s Reader Forum.

Now, here’s what’s happening around the water cooler this week…
The Water Cooler — Upcoming Events and More
The White House says to expect several tariff announcements this week. At the same time, the president is threatening a specific group of countries with new import fees.
He doesn’t want the BRICS — Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa and other invited members — to adopt anti-American policies.
But as Jim Rickards points out, new deals and threats won’t be enough to re-establish America’s economic dominance.
That’s why he thinks Trump has something else up his sleeve… and could announce it as early as Wednesday, July 9.
It could turn the entire global economic system on its head.
Investors who aren’t prepared for what’s coming could see their portfolios wiped out.
The right moves now, however, could deliver tremendous profits.
