The stock market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, is down more than 15% this year, even after the recent mega-rally.

Now, having said this, a select group of investors who positioned themselves early are looking forward to checking their brokerage accounts every morning, crash or no crash.

Why is that?

Because they invested – and are still investing – in the one asset that has outperformed the market by double and triple digits – even while the market is down. This one investment is outshining everything.

Oops… I gave it away!

As I’m sure you already know, gold has been on a tear. It’s been a top-performing asset in 2020.

Last year, on December 31, gold closed at $1,519. Today the price is listed at $1,726.50. That’s a gain of almost 15% during one of the worst four-month periods in market history.

Take a look at what I told War Room members in May 2019…

I made the call to buy gold via Barrick Gold on May 7, when gold was less than $1,300… Here are the reasons we bought in May. They haven’t changed. And they will be the same reasons we will buy again. 1 – The U.S. Dollar is way too strong and is hurting our export market. President Trump has been trying to talk it down from day one and will continue to do so. 2 – Low interest rates are good for gold and negative for the dollar. Pressure on the Fed to keep rates low is a plus. 3 – Geopolitical issues are bullish for gold. 4 – By the middle of next year, we will see election-year volatility kick in. 5 – Volatility is very low right now, and the market is vulnerable for mini-corrections like we saw in December. 6 – China.

Barrick Gold (NYSE: GOLD) has more than doubled since, and I have recommended it in The War Room many times. Just last week members made 70% on my latest Barrick Gold recommendation.

And in the past two weeks, between me and Bryan, we have open and closed four profitable gold trades. And we still have another one on the books.

In fact, since The War Room began back in May of last year, I have made members money on gold at least a dozen times.

Some members are making money on stocks that weren’t even official War Room trades; they placed their own personal trade based on the information I mentioned.

Take a look at what one member said yesterday…

“Karim… not sure if you remember… but back around the beginning of April you had mentioned SPOXF… I did some research and jumped in around $1.55 on April 3rd. Happy to say it is currently up 50%. Thank you sir.” – Greg H.

Don’t worry if you didn’t get in on the action, we’re not done yet. Members still have a “sleeper” position in the portfolio that could bring them another triple-digit gain in the weeks ahead. It’s already up double digits.

I wish I could share it with you here, but members would get upset. When I recommend closing this one out, it will be the third or fourth time (honestly, I’ve lost count) members make money from this one!

Action Plan: Now, tomorrow I will tell you how you can own gold… even though you can’t get your hands on it from any dealer right now.

It’s our little secret, and I’ll share it with you tomorrow. Make sure to mark your calendar so you can read all about it.

You see, in The War Room, we want to bring you everything… options, stocks, metals… and even some extra-special plays that very, very few people know about.
