The Freeport Society, since its inception, has tracked the intersection of two massive, world-changing megatrends. And today, top-rated investment analyst, tech visionary, and fellow basketball enthusiast Luke Lango breaks down the investment opportunity these merging megatrends presents.
It looks like we may have already seen “peak trade war.” Tensions between the U.S. and China are easing. Yet gold – which has served well as a crisis hedge this year – is still hugging all-time highs. So, what’s next for the barbaric relic?
Despite the market chaos following the ebbs and flows of Trump’s trade war, technological progress continues at an intense pace. In fact, as America works to reshore more manufacturing, technological progress will become critical…. the rollout of AI in particular. Here’s a stock to consider to get in on this trend.
Out of 44 rare earth metals, China is the leading supplier of 30. The U.S. depends entirely on imports for 12 of these metals. It sources more than half of its needed supply for the other 28.

Gold – a traditional safe haven and hedge against dollar debasement – shot up about 3% to hit an all-time high of $3,421 an ounce. What is going on here?
Tariffs were the centerpiece of the Trump administration’s economic plan. And they are the biggest challenge to the world economy since the Covid hysteria. Yet, nobody seems to know what the plan is. What is the idea? Even the “why” of it is still not settled.
With the market still reeling from the trade war, bargains are already starting to present themselves. But where does it make sense to look for those prime “Easter eggs”?
