A.I. 2.0 - Where A.I. and Crypto Meet the Hype

The mainstream press loves giving Robert F. Kennedy Jr. a hard time.
Just don&rsquo;t let it distract you from the truth.
Under RFK Jr.&rsquo;s watch, Americans are about to see more medical breakthroughs than anytime in recent memory.
Expect major progress in the fights against cancer, Alzheimer&rsquo;s and other deadly diseases.
And if you invest in the companies developing these revolutionary treatments now, you could lock in major gains when they become household names.
I&rsquo;ll tell you more after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.
<h2 class="subhead nbp">Your Top Stories &amp; Analysis of the Week:</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://rudeawakening.info/posts/oil-guns-and-freedom-albertas-american-dream">&ldquo;Oil, Guns and Freedom: Alberta&rsquo;s American Dream,&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://rudeawakening.info/posts/oil-guns-and-freedom-albertas-american-dream">Rude Awakening,</a><a href="https://rudeawakening.info/posts/oil-guns-and-freedom-albertas-american-dream"> Sean Ring)</a>: Mark Carney&rsquo;s election victory in Canada has re-ignited Alberta&rsquo;s desire to secede from the country &mdash; possibly becoming a U.S. state instead. Sean believes Donald Trump would welcome the breakaway province with open arms. He then lays out all the reasons why the move would benefit both of us &mdash; as well the obstacles preventing it from becoming a reality. Sean&rsquo;s take received several Top Story nominations from readers&hellip; so it&rsquo;s little surprise that it was also our most-liked e-letter of the week!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://million-mission.com/posts/i-made-a-huge-mistake">&ldquo;I Made a Huge Mistake&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://million-mission.com/posts/i-made-a-huge-mistake">The Million Mission</a><a href="https://million-mission.com/posts/i-made-a-huge-mistake">, Davis Wilson)</a>: Davis is still trying to trade his way to $1 million. And he&rsquo;d be a lot closer to his goal if he followed his own advice. A lucrative market pattern revealed itself&hellip; but Davis chose to stay on the sidelines. In this confessional essay, he walks you through exactly what he did wrong. You&rsquo;ll also learn an important lesson that could prevent you from making a similar mistake.</li>
</ul>

<li><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/the-next-ai-rush-isnt-digital">&ldquo;The Next AI Rush Isn&rsquo;t Digital&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/the-next-ai-rush-isnt-digital">Paradigm Mastermind Group</a><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/the-next-ai-rush-isnt-digital">, Chris Campbell)</a>: So far, all of the talk about artificial intelligence (AI) has focused on software applications like chatbots. But as Chris recently told Paradigm Mastermind Group members, the smart money is already starting to focus on the next stage of AI development. It&rsquo;s only a matter of time before everyone else catches on to the shift &mdash; and I think you deserve to know what&rsquo;s coming. So I unlocked Chris&rsquo; look ahead for you!</li>

Remember, we publish tens to HUNDREDS of stories. The write-ups and presentations above are our TOP ones for the week &mdash; including one that had been roped off from the public. If you want to stay ahead of the pack, make sure you&rsquo;re caught up now.
And if you&rsquo;d like to nominate any of our stories for next week&rsquo;s &ldquo;Top 3,&rdquo; just let me know at <a href="mailto:concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com">concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com</a>.
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Reader Forum:</h2>
In last week&rsquo;s Reader Forum, I asked if you <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/proof-that-prudent-trading-pays-off#forum">skip our analysts&rsquo; options recommendations and just buy the underlying shares</a> instead.
Our <a href="mailto:concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com">Concierge inbox</a> overflowed with replies&hellip;
Mary M. tells us:
I am also a member who is into the shares choice instead of options, but I am a new member. Maybe I will consider options later as I get more comfortable. I believe the data analysis is beneficial either way you go, and I appreciate having that information to make informed decisions.
Welcome aboard, Mary &mdash; and thanks for joining the conversation!
I&rsquo;m glad to hear you&rsquo;re finding our research useful, even if you don&rsquo;t follow our instructions to the letter.
We&rsquo;re all about freedom here &mdash; especially the freedom to choose your own financial path. But please let me know if you ever decide to give options a try.
Until then, I wish you much success with your stock plays!
Next, longtime member Philippe V. says he takes Zach Scheidt&rsquo;s recommendations and expands on them, adding:
I am currently long on Palantir Technologies Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/PLTR">PLTR</a>)... 80 shares bought at $64.57, now $127.87&hellip; Then I add to it a range of options&hellip; at $75, $80 and $100, with expiry of 1/16/26. This gives me a fairly long time to watch the market and pull the trigger&hellip; I did the same with NVIDIA Corp. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/NVDA">NVDA</a>) and saw returns of greater than 1,000%! And currently with SPDR Gold Trust (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/GLD">GLD</a>), which I've netted so far in two months over $10k. 
Congratulations on 11 successful years with us, Phillipe&hellip; and also on the big wins that our research inspired!
We don&rsquo;t currently have any services that match stock shares with options plays &mdash; but looking at your results, I wonder if we should start one.
I hope you&rsquo;ll keep us updated on your progress!
Finally for today, Jay C. tells us:
Thank you so much for the forum emails! Really enjoying them! I had been meaning to ask Jim Rickards or Zach Scheidt about some foreign OTC &amp; other securities&hellip;
I&rsquo;m glad to hear that the Reader Forum is worth your time, Jay. I enjoy this weekly opportunity to address our members&rsquo; questions and concerns.
But please remember that Paradigm Press isn&rsquo;t authorized to give individual investment advice. So Jim and Zach can&rsquo;t share their thoughts on the list of stocks you sent &mdash; either in a personal reply or a public forum like this.
Any answer would seem like it was meant specifically for you!
You&rsquo;ll also notice that I left out the specific list of stocks. That&rsquo;s because over-the-counter stocks are often thinly traded. Even a little bit of buying can send their prices artificially higher.
We don&rsquo;t want to even risk being accused of front-running or pumping-and-dumping stocks &mdash; letting someone take advantage of an artificial boost.
If these stocks are worth investing in, our team will find them through their proven research methods.
Then they&rsquo;re free to share their analysis with whomever they want!
That wraps up this week&rsquo;s Reader Forum.
Remember, your feedback is vital to our success&hellip; so please email me at <a href="mailto:concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com">concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com</a>.
Questions? I&rsquo;ll get answers! Comments? Let me hear them! Problems? I&rsquo;ll try to solve them!

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was a divisive choice for Secretary of Health and Human Services.
I still see headlines every day criticizing what he says&hellip; how he runs his department&hellip; even where he swims.
That&rsquo;s good news for us, though &mdash; because it means no one&rsquo;s paying attention to the medical breakthroughs we&rsquo;ll see during his term.
Right now, hundreds of companies are using artificial intelligence to rapidly develop and test new medicines.
They can identify false starts and zero in on promising candidates faster than ever &mdash; saving time and money in the race to save lives.
Even better, RFK Jr. is streamlining the FDA&rsquo;s approval process&hellip; meaning these revolutionary treatments will be available as soon as possible.
Our Ray Blanco keeps a close eye on drug pipelines, looking for companies with an advantage in the search for next-generation cures.
He says the changes RFK Jr. is making &ldquo;could dramatically cut years off development timelines and reduce research &amp; development costs by tens of millions per drug program.&rdquo;
That&rsquo;s why Ray is bullish on the S&amp;P Biotech ETF (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/xbi">XBI</a>), which tracks some of the top names in tech-driven medical research.
While the ETF has struggled this year, changes at the FDA &ldquo;could serve as the catalyst that finally recognizes the true value these companies represent.&rdquo;
In other words, investors may finally realize what these companies are up to &mdash; and start buying in.
But Ray says the biggest opportunities are in smaller research firms that are flying under Wall Street&rsquo;s radar.
In fact, Ray is tracking one small company with a breakthrough cancer treatment.
He&rsquo;ll have more to say about it later this week&hellip;

ppg-issue-05-19-25-img-post

Cash in on RFK’s FDA

&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t get too caught up in the insanity!&rdquo;
That&rsquo;s the advice from one of our top trading analysts at the start of what&rsquo;s shaping up to be another wild week on Wall Street.
And given our analyst&rsquo;s recent track record, I&rsquo;d pay close attention to what he sees ahead &mdash; especially if you want to make money during the market&rsquo;s ups and downs.
I&rsquo;ll tell you more after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.
<h2 class="subhead nbp">Your Top Stories &amp; Analysis of the Week:</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/rare-earths-disgusting-secrets">&ldquo;Rare Earths, Disgusting Secrets&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/rare-earths-disgusting-secrets">Altucher Confidential</a><a href="https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/rare-earths-disgusting-secrets">, Chris Campbell)</a>: Rare earths are critical raw materials for a wide variety of high-tech devices. Most of them come from China, which has started restricting its exports. That&rsquo;s why rare earth deposits in Greenland, Ukraine and the United States are suddenly getting a lot of press. But as Chris explains, there&rsquo;s a reason the Chinese took the lead in this industry&hellip; and finding alternative sources won&rsquo;t be quick or cheap. Discover why this was Chris&rsquo; most-liked story last week.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://truthandtrends.com/posts/the-berkshire-death-clock">&ldquo;The Berkshire Death Clock&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://truthandtrends.com/posts/the-berkshire-death-clock">Truth &amp; Trends</a><a href="https://truthandtrends.com/posts/the-berkshire-death-clock">, Enrique Abeyta)</a>: Warren Buffett has earned a reputation as a shrewd investor &mdash; which is why shares of his Berkshire Hathaway <a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/BRK.B">(BRK.B)</a> are a favorite pick for retirement accounts. But now Buffett is poised to step down as CEO&hellip; opening the possibility that he may leave the company permanently. And Enrique believes that will be the end of Berkshire as we know it. If you&rsquo;re holding BRK shares, you need to see Enrique&rsquo;s analysis!</li>

<li><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/the-china-con">&ldquo;The China Con,&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/the-china-con">Jim Rickards&rsquo; Strategic Intelligence</a><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/the-china-con">, Jim Rickards)</a>: Jim keeps a close eye on China, gold and the global financial system. Naturally, his members have questions. So Jim answered a few in the latest mailbag alert for his Strategic Intelligence. These insights are usually off-limits to everyone else. But the things he discusses are probably at the top of your mind, too. And once I saw it was one of his most-liked articles last week, I knew I had to unlock it for you.</li>

<h2 class="subhead nbp"><a id="forum"></a>The Reader Forum:</h2>
First from the mailbag today, Omega Wealth Circle member Gordon F. responds to <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/trump-vs-china-the-biggest-losers#forum">Rebecca W.&rsquo;s request that Paradigm Press adopt a &ldquo;house view.&rdquo;</a> He says:
Let me share a quote that my father-in-law gave us before we got married (42 years ago this June). He said, &ldquo;If two people always agree on everything, one of them is not necessary.&rdquo; I greatly appreciate the diversity of opinion from a variety of very intelligent and experienced advisors.
Thanks for writing in, Gordon! And since you&rsquo;re an Omega Wealth Circle member, I know you&rsquo;re serious about wanting a wide range of insights and strategies. You have access to our entire team!
So I&rsquo;m very glad to hear you&rsquo;re happy with what we share. Hopefully you&rsquo;ll share some success stories with us, too!
In a similar vein, Matthew M. left us a five-star Google review saying:
I&rsquo;ve been following Jim, James and the whole crew of amazing people at Paradigm Press, and they are knowledgeable and helpful! Thank you! I&rsquo;ve gained my initial investment back many times over!
Wow, Matthew, I hope you&rsquo;re reading this, because that&rsquo;s an amazing compliment! Thanks for taking the time to share it with the world.
I&rsquo;m very glad to hear that you&rsquo;ve had so much success with our team&rsquo;s recommendations. Now that you&rsquo;ve covered your costs, any future profits will help you reach your financial goals.
Feel free to keep us updated on your progress!
Finally for today, new Jim Rickards&rsquo; Insider Intel member Frances W. tells us:
While I know you advise the use of options for its recommendations, I am an 80-year-old who has never coped well with options, and while I note you give a very good lesson on them and advise the recommendations with them, I am very comfortable with share trading instead. I accept that the results will not be as great in percentage terms, but do you have many users who only trade the recommendations with the full share?
Welcome aboard, Frances! And I can assure you that you&rsquo;re not the only member who is wary of stock options.
It sounds like you&rsquo;ve already looked at all of our trading resources, including <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/paradigm-press-presents-the-ultimate-beginners-guide-to-stock-options">The Ultimate Beginner&rsquo;s Guide to Stock Options</a> on our <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/archive/wealth-desk">Wealth Desk</a>. If that didn&rsquo;t convince you to consider options trading, I won&rsquo;t try to change your mind.
Instead, I will point out that our analysts provide recommendations based on their research. What our members do with that information is completely up to them &mdash; and is none of our business.
So I don&rsquo;t really know how many people buy stock shares instead of the options our team recommends. We&rsquo;ll occasionally hear from members who did well just buying targeted stocks. Still, we don&rsquo;t have any hard data.
Don&rsquo;t let that stop you, though. In fact, I&rsquo;d love to hear how it works out for you. If anyone else buys shares instead of options for our recommendations, <a href="mailto:concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com">drop me a line</a>, too!
That wraps up this week&rsquo;s Reader Forum.

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Most stocks are soaring this morning after China and the United States announced a pause in the tariff war.
Pharmaceutical stocks, however, could struggle as Donald Trump signs an Executive Order targeting drug prices.
Of course, Trump&rsquo;s next social media post could send the markets in an entirely new direction.
That&rsquo;s why Greg Guenthner is recommending caution as the trading week begins.
&ldquo;We have to continue to make prudent trading decisions despite all the noise in this market,&rdquo; he says.
Since the market volatility began in April, Greg&rsquo;s Cash Line system has given his Trading Desk members chances to see gains of 28% in five days with Nike Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/NKE">NKE</a>)... 44% in just two days with Rocket Lab USA Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/RKLB">RKLB</a>)... and a giant 95% win with MARA Holdings Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/MARA">MARA</a>) in 3 days!
I guess prudence can really pay off!
Looking ahead, Greg says the S&amp;P 500 is set to break through some key technical barriers, putting it within striking distance of hitting new highs.
Tech stocks are also poised to rise, with big names like Nvidia Corp. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/NVDA">NVDA</a>) poised for modest gains compared to companies that are more directly affected by tariffs.
Greg also says cryptocurrencies are set for a good run.
Keep in mind that things are always changing, and &ldquo;unforeseen shenanigans&rdquo; could impact Greg&rsquo;s analysis.
That&rsquo;s why he issues new guidance every business morning&hellip; even chatting live with Trading Desk members before Wall Street&rsquo;s opening bell.
But now you have some idea of what to expect as the week begins!

Proof That Prudent Trading Pays Off

Wall Street is in for another rough ride&hellip;
And our team has pinpointed the stocks that will suffer the most.
If you&rsquo;re holding them hoping for a rebound, you might be out of luck.
In fact, you should consider strategies for cashing in on them as they fall.
I&rsquo;ll share some details after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.

In the United States, the Trump administration is about to jumpstart a new age of prosperity. Canada, meanwhile, is about to take a giant step backwards.

<h2 class="subhead nbp"><a id="forum"></a>The Reader Forum:</h2>
First from the mailbag, Henry K. reached out to me with a membership problem but adds:
Thank you for all the great information, and the growth in Paradigm Press Group I have seen since 2020 is almost overwhelming&hellip; All praise to James, Chris and all the great people with whom you work.
I&rsquo;m glad my team was able to address your concerns, Henry! And thank you for attaching these kind words to your request. I&rsquo;ve let our analysts know about your appreciation.
You&rsquo;re also right that Paradigm Press has grown rapidly over the past few years. We also have a few exciting new services on the drawing board.
But we&rsquo;ll take care not to overwhelm you with great ideas for growing your wealth.
Next, Phil Hudson left us a five-star Google review saying:
Altucher&rsquo;s True Alpha and The Maverick are really great. Clear process, great explanation and I'm making lots of money following their advice.
If you&rsquo;re reading this, Phil, thanks for taking the time to write a review. Hopefully this means you&rsquo;ve been benefiting from James Altucher&rsquo;s and Enrique Abeyta&rsquo;s big wins.
As you probably know, James teams up with trading expert Zach Scheidt for Altucher&rsquo;s True Alpha. And despite the volatile markets, they&rsquo;ve given members chances to see 50%... 61%... 101%... 121%... and 287% gains &mdash; all in the past few weeks alone!
Enrique is also on a hot streak at The Maverick. He&rsquo;s recommended closing just five plays for losses this year &mdash; out of a total 29 sell recommendations. That&rsquo;s a win rate of 83%!
Last week alone he said to take profits on five stocks, including an 11% gain from Vistra Corp. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/VST">VST</a>) in just two months.
Remember, both Zach and Enrique are former hedge fund managers &mdash; which is probably why they are so good at finding great plays and explaining them to you in plain English.
So I expect many more wins in your future!
Speaking of Enrique, Rebecca W. saw our &ldquo;<a href="https://paradigmpressgroup.com/jekyll-island-2025">Final Secret of Jekyll Island</a>&rdquo; broadcast and wrote him to say:
Jim Rickards was saying to get out of stocks, and that they won&rsquo;t recover for YEARS. I personally disagree with him, but I&rsquo;m wondering why you have totally different views IN HOUSE on the market? James Altucher is much more bullish on certain stocks and of course AI. But Rickards is against the market. It can be confusing for us &mdash; who to believe? I think one company should have one HOUSE VIEW and not present conflicting theories all the time.
I&rsquo;m not sure if Enrique will address this, Rebecca, so hopefully you&rsquo;ll see my answer here.
First, keep in mind that the whole point of Paradigm Press is to bring you a wide range of independent, expert analysis.
That independence is a core part of our identity, which is why we don&rsquo;t have a &ldquo;house view.&rdquo; Our team is encouraged to go where their research takes them &mdash; even if it seems to contradict something one of our other analysts is saying.
But that doesn&rsquo;t mean you need to choose who to believe. In fact, the smartest thing you can do is take all of our experts&rsquo; advice into consideration when choosing where to put your money.
Remember, even in the worst market environments, there are always opportunities to grow your wealth. So invest with that in mind.
You could put some money into James&rsquo; recommendations for a chance to cash in on Wall Street&rsquo;s latest trends. Then consider Jim&rsquo;s analysis to hedge your portfolio against downturns. And Enrique gives you chances to grab short-term gains no matter which way the markets go.
In short, don&rsquo;t go all-in on one of our analysts. Instead, use their combined wisdom to diversify your portfolio. Do it right and you&rsquo;ll come out ahead &mdash; no matter who ends up being right!
That wraps up this week&rsquo;s Reader Forum.

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
The major indexes rallied last week thanks to better-than-expected employment numbers and news that China might be willing to negotiate on tariffs.
Just don&rsquo;t expect it to last.
According to Rickards&rsquo; Senior Analyst Dan Amoss, &ldquo;The Chinese side says Trump must drop all unilateral tariffs before they can even set up an official meeting.&rdquo;
In other words, Trump will have to cancel the current tariffs before China starts talking.
And Trump might see the market&rsquo;s upturn as proof that Wall Street wants him to be tough on China.
So expect more back-and-forth bickering that sends the markets bouncing up and down again.
Meanwhile, U.S. ports are going idle thanks to a lack of overseas cargo. It could spur the kind of shortages we saw during the COVID lockdowns.
The first to feel the crunch will be the trucks and trains that carry those goods across the country.
The transportation industry.
&ldquo;Transport stocks will have another big leg lower through the summer,&rdquo; Dan predicts.
We&rsquo;re talking about companies like United Parcel Service Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/UPS">UPS</a>)... Union Pacific Corp. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/UNP">UNP</a>)... Old Dominion Freight Line Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/ODFL">ODFL</a>) &mdash; or basically any stock in the iShares Transportation ETF (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/IYT">IYT</a>).
If you&rsquo;re holding any of these stocks, you should consider an exit strategy before Wall Street realizes the danger.
You could also try to cash in on their fall using put options. (Our <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/paradigm-press-presents-the-ultimate-beginners-guide-to-stock-options">Ultimate Beginner&rsquo;s Guide to Stock Options</a> can help you get started.)

Trump vs. China: The Biggest Losers

While investors still fret over tariffs, Donald Trump has an even bigger surprise for the markets.
And Jim Rickards expects the news to come out as early as May 2&hellip;
When it does, a few specific plays could quickly deliver once-in-a-lifetime profits!
I&rsquo;ll tell you more in a minute.
But first, let&rsquo;s take a look at our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.

Only a few people bought it &mdash; but what they learned put them on a path to huge profits. Now James is seeing a similar pocket of extreme opportunities. The question is whether anyone is ready to listen. Check out this review of his 2008 predictions&hellip; and what lies ahead.

But as Jim has been telling his Strategic Intelligence members, the best way to make it happen is to tap into &ldquo;America&rsquo;s birthright.&rdquo; He explained the idea in a recent mailbag alert &mdash; and also shared his thoughts on how to play today&rsquo;s market volatility. Even if this weren&rsquo;t one of his most-liked articles last week, I think this analysis is too important to miss. So I went ahead and unlocked it for you.</li>

<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Reader Forum:</h2>
Last week&rsquo;s Jekyll Island broadcast featured a chat window where viewers could ask questions and share feedback. Patrick F. wanted us to know:
I&rsquo;ve been a lifetime subscriber of Jim&rsquo;s for eight years. I watched him for years prior to that. It took me a while to realize he&rsquo;s a genius! He&rsquo;s not 100% right on price or timing, but way more winners than losers. I literally live on top of a cliff overlooking a huge lake thanks to Jim!
If you&rsquo;re reading this, Patrick, thanks for your kind words during the broadcast!
Jim really is one of the smartest economists working today. And I&rsquo;m glad that his analysis and recommendations have helped you secure what sounds like a dream home.
Your lifetime membership also means you&rsquo;ll continue benefiting from Jim&rsquo;s latest discovery &mdash; the American birthright that&rsquo;s set to send stocks higher.
So I have no doubt that you&rsquo;ll have more success stories to share soon!
Next, Matthew A. left us a five-star Google review, saying:
I have been trading on and off for many years, and by far, Paradigm is the best perspective on the market I have ever come across.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review, Matthew!
We know there are a lot of competing ideas out there. So we&rsquo;ve worked hard to put together the most knowledgeable and experienced team for guiding you through the markets.
Hopefully you&rsquo;ll enjoy so much success with Paradigm that you won&rsquo;t need to give up trading anytime soon!
And finally for today, Tiffany B. writes to the Concierge inbox to say:
In your Strategic Intelligence newsletter, you mention that there is a list of all your open positions on the paradigmpressgroup.com website. Can you send me a link to that? I cannot find it. 
Thanks for the question, Tiffany. And while you&rsquo;re specifically asking about Jim Rickards&rsquo; Strategic Intelligence, the answer really applies to all of our services.
There&rsquo;s a list of categories at the top of each service&rsquo;s homepage. To find the portfolio page, click the three horizontal lines, also known as the &ldquo;hamburger menu.&rdquo;
<img class="aligncenter" src="https://images.ctfassets.net/vha3zb1lo47k/5iMzC25EkdoQHc6y9Ky9Vd/c82cbb5ab4f9af4cf7f42dd98ebadfc8/ppg-concierge-4-28-25-img-1.png" alt="" width="540px" />
It will open a drop-down menu. Select &ldquo;Portfolio&rdquo; to open the model portfolio page.
<img class="aligncenter" src="https://images.ctfassets.net/vha3zb1lo47k/2Vqfv8lBFdFC7scjtbc4d8/12ede1a47da46e86d3a78b115dceb94d/ppg-concierge-4-28-25-img-2.png" alt="" width="350px" />
From there, you can see how the open recommendations are doing&hellip; or review the results of closed positions.
I hope that helps!

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
If you&rsquo;ve been following Jim&rsquo;s research, you know that he&rsquo;s tracking what he calls the American birthright &mdash; a pool of national wealth that the U.S. government has kept under lock and key.
President Donald Trump has already made moves to open the American birthright&hellip; setting up big profits for early investors.
But Jim says a new phase in the American birthright will begin on Friday, May 2.
That&rsquo;s the earliest he expects a major announcement from the White House &mdash; news that could cause specific plays to deliver fast gains.
In fact, according to Jim&rsquo;s research, top institutions and deep-pocketed investors are already getting into position to take advantage of May 2.
So Jim says to follow their lead&hellip; setting you up to score massive profits alongside these well-connected insiders.
It could be the perfect antidote to the market&rsquo;s ups-and-downs from tariffs and earnings announcements.

American Birthright: Phase II

Strap in&hellip;
Because tariffs aren&rsquo;t the only thing Wall Street is worried about this week!
In fact, our team expects even more confusion just ahead &mdash; causing even bigger dips and bounces than we&rsquo;ve seen so far.
I&rsquo;ll tell you what to look out for after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.

<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Reader Forum:</h2>
First from the mailbag today, Omega Wealth Circle Member Donna O. tells us:
Since joining Omega Wealth Circle in July, religiously reading all your articles, selecting my stock purchases (too timid for options) almost exclusively from your recommendations, I made a nearly 45% return on my portfolio last year! Complaint? I now have to write a big check to Uncle Sam!... Thank you for your thorough analysis, varied perspectives and thoughtful recommendations. Despite the current market, I expect to be writing a large check to Uncle Sam next year. 
I guess making so much money that you have to pay more taxes is a good problem, Donna! Thanks for being a part of our most elite level of service. As you&rsquo;ve seen, it offers a wide-ranging set of strategies &mdash; helping you find profits no matter what the markets throw your way.&nbsp;
And I hope you&rsquo;ll be joining us for the Paradigm Shift Summit in October. I&rsquo;ll be announcing it to our regular Paradigm Press members soon. But as an Omega Wealth Circle member, you get early access!
Next up, Mark S. tells us:
I'd like to thank you folks for crediting my card so quickly when I cancelled my Altucher&rsquo;s Early-Stage Crypto Investor membership&hellip; That speaks volumes about you folks. I really do appreciate it.
I&rsquo;m not sure if you&rsquo;re reading this, Mark&hellip; and I normally wouldn&rsquo;t feature a cancellation letter in The Reader Forum.
But I think it&rsquo;s important for people to see that we take our members&rsquo; concerns very seriously. If something just isn&rsquo;t working for you, let us know. Hopefully my team and I can fix the problem. And if we can&rsquo;t, there are no hard feelings from us.
So even though you&rsquo;re no longer a member of Altucher&rsquo;s Early-Stage Crypto Investor, I encourage you to give one of our other services a try. With so many talented analysts on our roster, you&rsquo;re sure to find one that meets your financial needs!
And finally for today, Tom M. wants to know:
Is it ok to send or forward emails like The Daily Fwd&hellip; to friends or others who are interested but aren&rsquo;t members of Paradigm Press?
If you&rsquo;re seeing this, Tom, thanks for asking!
Feel free to pass along any of our free e-letters: The Daily Fwd.&hellip; Today&rsquo;s Tech Fwd&hellip;. Daily Reckoning&hellip; Morning Reckoning&hellip; Paradigm Pressroom&rsquo;s 5 Bullets&hellip; Truth &amp; Trends&hellip; Rude Awakening&hellip; The Million Mission&hellip; Altucher Confidential&hellip; The Rundown&hellip; even this Concierge Letter.
In fact, we encourage it! The more people who learn the truth about what&rsquo;s happening in the world &mdash; and what to do about it &mdash; the better off everyone will be.
Of course, it&rsquo;s a different story with our paid services. Our analysts&rsquo; proprietary research reveals things that the mainstream is missing.
Sharing that information outside of the circle makes it less valuable. It could also create artificial price spikes in the stocks and options our team recommends. The inevitable correction will cause prices to sink, ruining the profit opportunity.
So if you&rsquo;re profiting off of our recommendations, the best thing you can do is to encourage people to join us!

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
I don&rsquo;t have to tell you that Donald Trump&rsquo;s back-and-forth tariff announcements have created a lot of confusion on Wall Street.
But the waters are about to get a lot muddier&hellip;
That&rsquo;s because it&rsquo;s earnings season, when public companies are required to share their quarterly results.
Most of the time, the only thing investors care about is whether or not a company&rsquo;s profits met analysts&rsquo; expectations.
A &ldquo;miss&rdquo; can cause the stock to plummet while a &ldquo;beat&rdquo; can send the stock soaring.
Our team can help you profit no matter which way the earnings report goes.
This time, however, investors will be paying more attention to each company&rsquo;s outlook. That&rsquo;s where corporate executives predict their revenue and earnings for the year ahead.
Recession fears are stronger than ever. No one knows how tariffs will affect bottom lines. So everyone wants to know how management thinks things will go.
Given all the uncertainty, public companies may take the easy way out&hellip; refusing to speculate about their balance sheets.
In fact, Walmart Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/WMT">WMT</a>) has already announced it won&rsquo;t be offering investors any guidance this quarter due to tariffs.
And there&rsquo;s nothing Wall Street hates worse than uncertainty.
Luckily, Paradigm Press is home to a team of world-class analysts. They know how to dig into the numbers&hellip; and figure out what&rsquo;s really hiding in the corporate books.
Trust us to guide you through earnings season while everyone else is flying blind!

Worse Than the Trump Tank — EARNINGS SEASON

It&rsquo;s going to be another rough day on Wall Street thanks to Donald Trump&rsquo;s tariffs.
But good stocks are falling alongside the bad &mdash; giving you an opportunity to buy top names at bargain prices.
And our team thinks a single announcement from the White House could stop the selloff in its tracks.
I&rsquo;ll tell you more about it after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.

Investors are wondering what to do and how it will all end. But James isn&rsquo;t scared at all. He says that most people don&rsquo;t understand what the tariffs are really about. And once you see what Trump is trying to accomplish, you&rsquo;ll also know why the market&rsquo;s panic could be your gain. It&rsquo;s no wonder this was our most-liked e-letter last week!</li>

<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Reader Forum:</h2>
First from the mailbag today, Mike H. follows up on <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/your-liberation-day-primer#readerfm">Edward W.&rsquo;s thoughts on Grok</a> with his own experience using the artificial intelligence platform:
I used Grok to design an AI start-up in Iceland using the ice and volcanic activity to help keep operating costs down. Grok wrote a pitch deck for the AI project, gave me the names of top AI software engineers and what they might cost to work on the AI project. I believe that me and Grok could launch a new AI company successfully with minimum impact on the environment.
That&rsquo;s amazing, Mike! Stories like this show that James Altucher and his team are really onto something &mdash; that artificial intelligence is set to revolutionize many aspects of our lives.
Let us know if you get your Grok-inspired company off the ground!
Speaking of James, Kevin W. wants him to know that:
You and your team are truly amazing, and I've been very happy with my paid subscription thus far. The thorough and detailed work you guys do along with updates and follow-ups on portfolio names cannot be appreciated enough! Thank you for all you do&hellip;
James and his team have seen this, Kevin. And I want to thank you for the kind words, too!
Our goal is to make sure you always have the information you need to protect your wealth and lock in maximum profits. You&rsquo;ll never be left wondering what you should do with an open recommendation.
And that commitment to you is even more important today. With tariff fears causing stocks to tank, you don&rsquo;t want to act rashly. Count on James and our entire team of analysts to offer level-headed analysis when you need it most!
Finally for today, Donna K. asks James:
Am I supposed to open a trading account through Paradigm? I don't see the info on the topic or how to get started. Others have hidden fees. Just a rip off. Trading for myself is best through whom?
I hope you&rsquo;re reading this, Donna, because this is a fairly common question with a very simple answer.
Paradigm Press is a small, independent publisher. We only offer opinions, research and analysis. We don&rsquo;t offer any financial services at all.
That&rsquo;s why we created our <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/your-liberation-day-primer">Wealth Desk, a FREE library of reports</a> to help you get started on your investment journey.
For example, if you want to follow our team&rsquo;s stock recommendations, you&rsquo;ll need to open a brokerage account.
&ldquo;<a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/how-to-choose-the-best-brokerage-account-for-you">How to Choose the Best Brokerage Account for You</a>&rdquo; tells you about some of the biggest names in the business &mdash; jumpstarting your search.
And don&rsquo;t worry if you&rsquo;ve never bought a stock before, either. &ldquo;<a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/post/stock-investing-101-buying-selling-and-earning-income">Stock Investing 101: Buying, Selling and Earning Income</a>&rdquo; takes you through the basic steps of building a portfolio.

<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Wall Street could be looking at the worst three-day selloff since 1987.
So our team is looking for bargains.
That&rsquo;s because there isn&rsquo;t any rhyme or reason to investors&rsquo; actions. People are dumping everything.
Even prices for &ldquo;safe haven&rdquo; investments like silver and gold fell&hellip; giving you another opportunity to buy in cheap.
We also don&rsquo;t think it would take much to stop the market&rsquo;s freefall.
The tariffs are designed to force countries to the negotiating table. And while some governments are committed to fighting back, others may be more willing to talk things out.
&ldquo;The sooner Donald Trump makes a &lsquo;good&rsquo; example of a country that commits to be more open to our exports,&rdquo; says our Dan Amoss, &ldquo;the sooner we&rsquo;ll get a bounce in the market.&rdquo;
Be ready to make a move when that happens!

First from the mailbag, Edward W. tells us:
I used Grok a few days ago because I had a serious project that I've been slowly getting one part after another. Thirty minutes and Grok put together key groups, government data and a simple plan that would have taken at least a year working alone. I have never been more excited about AI and the guys who brought it to me. Thanks guys; you have proven your worth.
I&rsquo;m glad to hear you&rsquo;re using artificial intelligence to simplify your life, Edward. And I&rsquo;m very happy that we inspired you to give it a try!
Our team has been exploring various AI platforms, too &mdash; looking to bring you the best information as efficiently as possible. Of course, we still have a long way to go before the software writes our issues and alerts for us.
But it is saving us time, which means we can devote more time to honing our ideas.
Next, Kurt V. wants Jim Rickards to know:
I really enjoy your newsletters and have followed for several years. Based on what I have read and learned, I have enjoyed protected and growing assets over the last four tumultuous years.
Thanks for writing in, Kurt. Jim and his team have seen this, of course, but I&rsquo;d like to share my appreciation as well!
The last few years have certainly been volatile. So I&rsquo;m glad you signed on with Jim when you did &mdash; then stuck around as he guided you through every market dip and spike.
Your loyalty should continue to pay off, too, as Jim helps you navigate the challenges he sees ahead!
And finally for today, LeRoy B. writes James Altucher to say:
Your group is allowing other companies to look as if they are representing your group or worse that you are recommending this outside group. You must already sell my information to other investing groups as I receive more and more emails from investment advising groups daily. I implore you to consider the risk of having a link to an unsecured website within your publications.
Hopefully you don&rsquo;t mind me fielding this one LeRoy, since my answer may interest all of our members.
While I understand your frustration&hellip; I need more information to figure out if we&rsquo;re responsible for the problems you&rsquo;re having.
You should only be receiving emails from Paradigm Press &mdash; James&rsquo; publisher. Your membership also includes several free e-letters from James and his colleagues. And we like to tell you about other strategies and opportunities developed by our in-house team of experts.
We&rsquo;ll also spotlight partners that aren&rsquo;t part of Paradigm Press. But we always include a note at the top to let you know when an email is coming from an outside group.
And we never sell your personal information! In fact, we take protecting your information very seriously &mdash; which is why I&rsquo;m surprised to hear you&rsquo;ve been receiving links to unsecured websites.
If you could tell me more about the suspicious emails you&rsquo;re receiving or the unsecured links you&rsquo;re being sent, I can get to the bottom of this.
That wraps up this week&rsquo;s Reader Forum.

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Trump&rsquo;s tariff promises and threats have created a roller coaster on Wall Street.
Now investors are bracing for another wave of tariff announcements on Wednesday &mdash; which the president has dubbed &ldquo;Liberation Day.&rdquo;
Trump says that his impending Executive Orders will impact every country. But no one knows if the fees will be distributed equally or if the White House will rapidly cut deals with the affected nations.
&ldquo;Tariffs should be a clearly articulated policy that's promised over years, and not a negotiating tool,&rdquo; says Jim Rickards&rsquo; senior analyst, Dan Amoss. &ldquo;Because if they are a negotiating tool, businesses can't plan.&rdquo;
The president&rsquo;s ultimate goal is to convince companies to build more of their products in the United States.
In fact, Trump has already signed an Executive Order that will tax vehicles based on how many foreign components they contain
So the biggest winners will be businesses that reshore production as quickly and smoothly as possible.
Dan warns that companies that specialize in things &ldquo;like apparel or low-end electronics will never be competitive to make in the United States.&rdquo;
Zach Scheidt, our income and trading specialist, think the tariffs will be very good for domestic steel producers.
He expects a beaten-down name to restart its dividend payouts once cash comes rolling back in thanks to the tariffs.
And our entire team thinks gold will continue to run as investors brace for the worst.
In short, it will be a tricky week. But our team will help guide you through it!

Your “Liberation Day” Primer

Don&rsquo;t let the mainstream media fool you.
Biased reporters are focused on stoking fake outrage&hellip;
So they&rsquo;re completely missing how Donald Trump&rsquo;s agenda could really impact your wealth.
I&rsquo;ll tell you more after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.
<h2 class="subhead nb[]">Your Top Stories &amp; Analysis of the Week:</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://dailyreckoning.com/golds-warning-signal/">&ldquo;Gold&rsquo;s Warning Signal,&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://dailyreckoning.com/golds-warning-signal/">Daily Reckoning, </a><a href="https://dailyreckoning.com/golds-warning-signal/">Adam Sharp)</a>: American consumers are worried the U.S. economy is heading towards a recession. Investors are turning bearish on Wall Street. President Trump&rsquo;s efforts to cut government spending have hit numerous roadblocks. And precious metals prices are also indicating trouble ahead. Adam connects the dots and identifies where he&rsquo;s seeing bright spots. See why this was the most-liked Daily Reckoning last week!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://million-mission.com/posts/the-cheapest-stock">&ldquo;The Cheapest Stock&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://million-mission.com/posts/the-cheapest-stock">The Million Mission</a><a href="https://million-mission.com/posts/the-cheapest-stock">, Davis Wilson)</a>: Shares of both Alphabet Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/GOOG">GOOG</a>) and Tesla Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/TSLA">TSLA</a>) have fallen sharply over the past two months. But Davis says only one of them is now selling for a bargain price. He walks you through how to evaluate each company like a Wall Street pro. And he reveals an angle that most investors have overlooked. It&rsquo;s a masterclass in how to properly measure a stock, which is probably why this topped last week&rsquo;s list of most-liked e-letters.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/why-nvidia-math-is-going-to-make-us-rich-concierge">&ldquo;Why &lsquo;Nvidia Math&rsquo; Is Going to Make Us Rich&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/why-nvidia-math-is-going-to-make-us-rich-concierge">Altucher&rsquo;s Investment Network</a><a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/article/why-nvidia-math-is-going-to-make-us-rich-concierge">, Ray Blanco)</a>: Despite the bearish atmosphere, James Altucher and his team remain bullish on artificial intelligence (AI). In fact, Ray explains why a quote from Nvidia Corp. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/NVDA">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang shows that the AI boom is just getting started. It&rsquo;s important analysis for anyone who is wavering or still on the fence about AI. It was also our most-liked article of the week, which is why I unlocked it for you.</li>
</ul>
Remember, we publish tens to HUNDREDS of stories. The write-ups above are our TOP ones for the week &mdash; including one that had been roped off from the public. If you want to stay ahead of the pack, make sure you&rsquo;re caught up now.

<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Reader Forum:</h2>
First in the Forum today, Lin J. reports her experience with our member services team:
Jay P. really impressed me with his care and taking his best steps to help a frustrated customer&hellip; The frontline customer service represents the integrity of a company. It&rsquo;s way more important to the business than one would ever realize. 
I completely agree, Lin! As we often say, Paradigm Press wouldn&rsquo;t exist without loyal members like you. And we know our member services team members are on the front lines of keeping you happy. That&rsquo;s why we only hire the best of the best.
So I&rsquo;m confident you would have had the same experience no matter who ended up fielding your questions. But I appreciate you singling out Jay P., since I think individual recognition is important.
I&rsquo;ve shared your kind words with him&hellip; and have passed it along to inspire the rest of our team!
Next up, we recently shut down Rickards Uncensored for some major retooling. Shortly after the announcement, David S. wrote to Jim Rickards to say:
I have really enjoyed Rickards Uncensored over the years. I was there for the inaugural episode and have not missed many of the subsequent episodes&hellip; That said, I completely understand that sometimes changes are needed. I fully support your decision to retool this product, and based upon my experience with Paradigm, I know that what comes next will be valuable and of high quality. 
If you&rsquo;re reading this, David, well said!
It&rsquo;s never easy to shut down a service &mdash; especially one as timely and insightful as Rickards Uncensored.
But with so much happening in the markets, we think you need every idea and strategy for dealing with the wild swings. So we&rsquo;re working hard to create a new, bigger video series, featuring insights from a wider group of Paradigm&rsquo;s best analysts.
Jim and his team will still be an important part of this service, of course. You&rsquo;ll also hear from the likes of James Altucher, Enrique Abeyta, Greg Guenthner and our newest contributors, Mason Sexton and his son, famed radio host Buck Sexton.
So I think you&rsquo;re right &mdash; the weekly broadcasts will be better than ever before. Stay tuned for more details as our plans take shape!
And finally for today, Becky B. tells me that she:
Thought you were going to share company names that might be good investments. Am I not understanding? I know virtually nothing about buying stocks. 
Thanks for writing in, Becky, and I&rsquo;m sorry you&rsquo;re feeling frustrated.
But I&rsquo;m not sure if you&rsquo;re talking about this Concierge Letter, one of our video presentations or something else.
I&rsquo;m not a stock analyst, so you won&rsquo;t usually find specific recommendations here. Instead, I share our top analysis and link to specific recommendations whenever possible &mdash; like our <a href="https://paradigmpressgroup.com/techturningpoint2025">Tech Turning Point 2025 broadcast with James Altucher.</a> (Be sure to check out the transcript for a rundown of all the ideas and stock names our team discussed.)
I can also help you take your first investment steps. Our <a href="https://concierge.paradigmpressgroup.com/archive/wealth-desk">Wealth Desk</a> contains a library of FREE reports, telling you everything from opening a brokerage account to buying stock options. Over the next few months, we&rsquo;ll be adding primers on Bitcoin&hellip; portfolio allocations&hellip; even profiting from bear markets.
Still, we are a business, meaning we have to keep the lights on somehow. And we don&rsquo;t want to become beholden to big Wall Street firms by accepting their advertising money. Instead, we ask people to become paying members to receive deeper research and specific recommendations.&nbsp;
We believe the profitable insights you receive will easily cover our nominal membership fees. So I hope that clears things up.

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Wall Street dips and jumps with every Executive Order and tariff announcement that comes out of the White House.
News organizations feature an endless parade of people who are offended by the president&rsquo;s actions.
Even so-called &ldquo;friendly&rdquo; media can&rsquo;t help but warn about the negative consequences Trump could have on the economy.
But Jim Rickards thinks all the negative press is eclipsing Trump&rsquo;s true goal&hellip;
To kickstart a new Golden Era in the United States.
And it could transform your life, too &mdash; giving you a chance to be freer, healthier and wealthier than ever.
Don&rsquo;t get the wrong idea, though.
Jim still says there are severe economic imbalances that need to be worked out. And not all of today&rsquo;s high-flying stocks will survive the readjustment.
That&rsquo;s why Jim and his team of analysts have been searching for companies that will thrive in what he sees ahead.
In fact, they say that Trump is planning to unleash a $150 trillion fortune &mdash; and have identified specific stocks that will soar as the White House taps into this &ldquo;American birthright endowment.&rdquo;

Your Profit Plan for the Trump Agenda

The major indexes and &ldquo;magnificent seven&rdquo; stocks aren&rsquo;t the sure bets they used to be.
If you want to make money in today&rsquo;s markets, you need to choose your stocks more carefully.
That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;re getting ready to launch a brand-new service specifically designed to find the lucrative stories that Wall Street is overlooking.
In fact, it&rsquo;s already uncovered a tech connection few people are talking about &mdash; involving Elon Musk&rsquo;s latest invention.
Our expert predicts it could trigger an even bigger crash in stocks like Nvidia Corp. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/NVDA">NVDA</a>)... while giving lots of regular Americans a chance to get rich in the process.

<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Reader Forum:</h2>
As I said, our <a href="https://paradigmpressgroup.com/techturningpoint2025">Tech Turning Point 25</a> event was a huge success. But you don&rsquo;t have to take my word for it!
During the broadcast, viewers had a chance to submit live comments in a chat window as our experts were talking. Among the many compliments we saw was this one from Rosalina B.:
Thank you for allowing us to watch and listen to all of you at the same time. What a luxury and privilege. AWESOME GIFT!
That&rsquo;s high praise, Rosalina. And I hope you&rsquo;re reading this, because all the gratitude should go to you and our other members!
Paradigm Press wouldn&rsquo;t exist without your support. That&rsquo;s why we host events like this &mdash; to reward you for your time and loyalty.
So we will definitely put on more events like this in the future.
And while we&rsquo;re talking about things we give away, Tim F. writes Davis Wilson of <a href="https://million-mission.com/">The Million Mission</a> to say:
I am no huge investor by any means. And I don't remember ever paying you at all. I'm not sure how you make a living doing this. But I just wanted to thank you very much. Almost everyone else is just trying to get extra money.
If you&rsquo;re reading this, Tim, thanks for the compliment!
I also have good news to share &mdash; you haven&rsquo;t paid Davis a dime. Instead, Davis shares his insights for free to anyone who wants them.
The Million Mission has the same goal as Paradigm&rsquo;s other e-letters. We want you to understand what&rsquo;s really happening in the world&hellip; and give you the tools to make the most of it. Hopefully we entertain you along the way.
Of course, we are still a business, so we have to keep the lights on somehow. But we don&rsquo;t risk our independence by accepting advertising money from giant Wall Street firms. Instead, we give people the option to pay for deeper insights and specific recommendations from our analysts.
That actually leads to our last letter for today. It comes from Pepsi N., who saw our Paradigm Mastermind Group presentation and tells us:
At $2,500, much too pricey for everyday people. And it&rsquo;s not like the trio have proven anything to us. All we have to go by is their word.
I appreciate you speaking up, Pepsi. We often get complaints that our presentations are too long&hellip; but your comments demonstrate why they need to be.
The trio you&rsquo;re talking about is Jim Rickards, James Altucher and Ray Blanco. Those names might be familiar to you&hellip; or you might not know them at all.
So we need to make sure our viewers understand who our experts are and why you can trust them.
I also get that a Paradigm Mastermind Group membership might seem pricey. But keep in mind that we&rsquo;re talking about securing the services of world-renowned market analysts &mdash; bringing powerful tools, research and contacts with them.
Also, the recommendations they focus on aren&rsquo;t appropriate for all investors &mdash; and we have a responsibility to make sure our members don&rsquo;t get in over their heads.
If you&rsquo;re not ready for this level of investing, no problem! I suggest you focus on our introductory services, like Altucher&rsquo;s Investment Network, Jim Rickards&rsquo; Strategic Intelligence or Lifetime Income Report.
They&rsquo;ll help you build the foundation you need to start exploring more advanced investment strategies!

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Tesla Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/TSLA">TSLA</a>) vehicle owners have had to deal with harassment and vandalism simply because of Tesla&rsquo;s connection to Elon Musk.
When President Donald Trump heard this, he declared he was buying a Tesla &mdash; even having a fleet of the electric vehicles drive up to the White House.
The message couldn&rsquo;t be clearer &mdash; the Trump administration will support Elon however it can.
That&rsquo;s important, says one of our top analysts, because Elon is about to reveal his latest invention&hellip; and a partnership that will completely change the artificial intelligence (AI) race.
Now, I know what you&rsquo;re probably thinking&hellip;
The markets have been up and down. Investors are losing faith in AI. Safe havens like gold are dominating the headlines.
So another tech investment might seem like a terrible idea.
But our expert has a habit of making money even in the worst downturns. His hedge fund clients even saw profits during the dot-com crash and 2008 meltdown.
In other words, he knows how to find stocks that will swim against the currents &mdash; delivering gains while everything else struggles.
Now he&rsquo;s saying that Elon&rsquo;s little-known partner has all the makings of a big winner:
<ul>
<li>It&rsquo;s already set to receive billions of dollars from the U.S. government.</li>
<li>Top hedge funds have already taken huge stakes in the company&rsquo;s stock.</li>
<li>And it&rsquo;s flashing unique indicators that are the best predictor of rising prices.</li>
</ul>
Toss in the White House connection &mdash; and this company&rsquo;s stock could leave its competitors in the dust.
Look for the full story when our expert goes live with his research later this week!

ppg-concierge-03-17-25-img-post

Elon: “Adios, Nvidia!”

I hope you&rsquo;ve cleared your calendar for 2 p.m. ET tomorrow&hellip;
That&rsquo;s when James Altucher and his team will go live with their latest analysis and recommendations from the South by Southwest (SXSW) conference in Austin, TX.
We&rsquo;re calling it Tech Turning Point 2025.
And you can tune in absolutely free &mdash; no sign-up or registration&hellip; no cash or credit card&hellip; no hidden strings!
In a minute, I&rsquo;ll give you a sneak peek at what you can expect.
But first, let&rsquo;s take a look at our Top Stories and the Reader Forum&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">Your Top Stories &amp; Analysis of the Week:</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://dailyreckoning.com/greenland-gambit/">&ldquo;Greenland Gambit&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://dailyreckoning.com/greenland-gambit/">Morning Reckoning</a><a href="https://dailyreckoning.com/greenland-gambit/">, Sean Ring)</a>: The mainstream press has been using Donald Trump&rsquo;s Greenland talk as a punchline. But Sean tells us that owning the world&rsquo;s largest island is actually a matter of national security. For one thing, Russia and China have been building up their presence in the Arctic Circle &mdash; threatening to box the United States out of the region. And that part of the world will be ever-more important in the years to come. Several members of our team praised this story, with one saying Sean&rsquo;s &ldquo;annotated Arctic map alone is worth the read.&rdquo;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/the-truth-about-tariffs-busting-the-inflation-myth">&ldquo;The Truth About Tariffs: Busting the Inflation Myth&rdquo; (</a><a href="https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/the-truth-about-tariffs-busting-the-inflation-myth">Altucher Confidential</a><a href="https://altucherconfidential.com/posts/the-truth-about-tariffs-busting-the-inflation-myth">, James Altucher)</a>: Trump is also taking fire for his whiplash tariff executive orders &mdash; with many claiming that they&rsquo;ll drive consumer prices higher. James disagrees. He uses historical and common-sense examples to explain why taxing imports doesn&rsquo;t lead to the kind of economic disasters people are predicting. It&rsquo;s yet another antidote to the misinformation you&rsquo;ve probably heard elsewhere. See why member Jim R. nominated this one for a top spot.</li>

But that didn&rsquo;t stop the president from sharing his vision for the United States. The morning after the speech, Jim shared his analysis with his Strategic Intelligence readers. It quickly became our second most-liked article of all time. Naturally that compelled me to unlock Jim&rsquo;s thoughts for you!</li>

Corinthia B. tells us she is
So grateful for James Altucher and his team for making it so affordable for us to join James and his group so that we may have a huge possibility to become very well-to-do indeed! Thank you for all that you are doing for us that we still have hope.
Thanks for the heartfelt compliment, Corinthia!
As I&rsquo;ve said before, we try to give away as much analysis as we can for free &mdash; as we&rsquo;ll demonstrate with the Tech Turning Point 2025 event tomorrow.
But we&rsquo;re also an independent publisher who doesn&rsquo;t accept advertisement money from giant Wall Street firms. So we try to keep the lights on while still making our in-depth research and recommendations as cost-effective as possible.
That&rsquo;s why I&rsquo;m glad to hear you&rsquo;re happy with your membership. And the ideas you&rsquo;ll get from James and his team will be worth every penny!
In a similar vein, Charles R. tells us:
I am so happy to be a part of Paradigm Press. I believe the advice I get from everyone in this organization is going to help me accomplish my goals of being wealthy. There&rsquo;s a lot of information out there, but everyone in this organization helps me to understand it better.
That&rsquo;s exactly what we&rsquo;re here for, Charles!
Our publisher, Matt Insley, has hand-selected experts in a wide range of financial fields. And they&rsquo;re all committed to helping you protect and grow your wealth!
We&rsquo;re also always looking for new strategies you can explore. In fact, later this week we&rsquo;re launching a new service that can help you cash in on Elon Musk&rsquo;s latest invention. And Mason Sexton is crafting another new service to add to our lineup.
Look for more details soon!
Finally for today, Kelly B. writes to say:
I am a new member to The Map service&hellip; I have tracked some of the predictions and speculations and have been very impressed with the results. Being I am still working full time, I have found I am missing much of the information in a timely manner. Are there any alerts or apps for my phone that I can set to help me be timelier with the notification?
Great question, Kelly!
Creating a smartphone app has been our tech team&rsquo;s top priority. And we want it to be perfect right out of the gate.
It&rsquo;s now nearing the finish line&hellip; meaning you&rsquo;ll soon have the power to keep up with our recommendations while you&rsquo;re on the go. I&rsquo;ll let you know as soon as it launches.
In the meantime, almost all of our services &mdash; including The Map &mdash; can send you a text message whenever there&rsquo;s a new action to take.
Look for the sign-up link at the bottom of our email alerts.
<img class="aligncenter" src="https://images.ctfassets.net/vha3zb1lo47k/3AJVDLIhhOqIlJJv6Mnoxg/fc2d7f9cf28ab2668a6cd97824d6a446/ppg-concierge-img-03-10-25-1.png" alt="" width="540px" />
Please keep in mind that text alerts are only available in the United States.

Now, here&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s happening around the water cooler this week&hellip;
<h2 class="subhead nbp">The Water Cooler &mdash; Upcoming Events and More</h2>
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are dramatically reshaping the U.S. economy &mdash; and technology will be one of the transformation&rsquo;s key drivers.
That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;ve dispatched James Altucher and his team to the SXSW Conference.
The event brings together some of the biggest innovators in the world. They spotlight the absolute latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI)... cryptocurrencies&hellip; medical technology&hellip; and more!
And the Altucher team is right in the middle of it &mdash; ready to share their on-the-ground insights with you absolutely FREE.
Make no mistake&hellip; this isn&rsquo;t a sales pitch or promotional stunt.
You&rsquo;ll get up-to-the-minute analysis and recommendations with ZERO obligation. There&rsquo;s nothing to sign up for&hellip; no personal information necessary&hellip; not even a reason to pull out your credit card.
Instead, you&rsquo;ll learn&hellip;
<ul>
<li>What's REALLY happening inside Musk's AI empire&hellip; and why the first 100 days of Trump&rsquo;s term are shaping to deliver a $10 trillion wealth transfer.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>How top hedge funds are positioning for AI's next move &mdash; and what you should do now.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Why billionaires are flooding into longevity research&hellip; plus the name of a health-tech stock that could be the next Moderna Inc. (<a href="https://my.paradigmpressgroup.com/ticker/MRNA">MRNA</a>).</li>

You&rsquo;ll also have a chance to interact with other viewers and ask the team questions during the broadcast.
