Dear Investor,

Gold could be on the verge of its greatest bull market in over 30 years!

In mid-October 2005, it had soared to an 18-year high of $480 an ounce — a $45 increase from the beginning of the year.

In the past years, the price of gold has risen 40% — and that is just the beginning. But there are many, many more reasons to own gold today.

For the first time since 1975 — when private ownership of gold was once again legalized in the U.S. — powerful forces are converging to create what should soon become a major gold bull market.

Understanding these forces could make or break your investment portfolio and literally mean the difference between making and losing a small fortune.

For one thing, gold is the ultimate insurance for your assets.

This has been a central tenet of Financial Intelligence Report almost since we began publishing. Back in December 2003, we advised readers that they should "invest in gold as the ultimate insurance."

And we meant this literally, because even insurance companies have been known to go belly-up, leaving policyholders empty-handed when catastrophe hits.

Plus, we are now experiencing a soaring worldwide demand for gold.

Around the globe, more and more individuals and governments are buying gold as a safe haven for their funds in troubled financial times.

In just the past year, China (the world's largest country, with over 1.3 billion people) authorized its banks to market gold bullion and coins. As a result, Chinese demand for gold rose by at least 50% in 2004 and that number is likely to rise even more.

When a large Chinese department store started selling gold in 2004, they sold out in hours. But it's not just China.

• Record-setting sales in India.
  Indian households are on a record gold-buying spree as oil-price-driven inflation threatens to wipe out savings from rising incomes in one of the world's fastest-growing economies. India, with its 1.1 billion citizens, is the world's second-largest country, just behind China. India is also the world's largest gold market, and so far 2005 sales are 80% higher than they were in 2004!
• Stealth Arab gold buying.
  Middle-Eastern countries are buying gold at a record pace, particularly in the form of jewelry. For 2005, Arab gold jewelry purchases are running 50% ahead of 2004 purchases.
• Other record-setting gold purchases.
  In Japan, 2004 industrial demand was up 15%, and the State Bank of Vietnam gave gold dealers permission to sell. Demand for gold is also soaring in Indonesia, South America and many other parts of the world.

Soaring demand for gold means MUCH HIGHER prices in the near future. Smart investors in the right stocks today will be able to capture life-changing wealth in just a few short years. Discover the 4 gold stocks to buy now — and the one highly touted gold stock you must avoid at all costs.

The Artificial Manipulation
of Gold Prices

Central banks and governments HATE gold. The higher gold soars, the worse their currencies and policies look.

The key to understanding major central banks' manipulation of the gold price is the realizing that gold is money — and that their fiat currencies are not.

From 1933 until 1975, private ownership of gold bullion was prohibited in the United States, and the U.S. government — along with other countries — maintained the price of gold at $35 by keeping the "official price" artificially low. Then, starting in 1975, when Americans were once again permitted to own gold bullion, the price of gold exploded to $850 an ounce.

The fact that this "gold boom" occurred is common knowledge. But what few know is that the behind-the-scenes manipulation of the gold price was secretly reinstated and has been in effect for at least a decade.

A report from Sprott Asset Management, a major Canadian financial firm, reveals the extent of the manipulation and how it has been used to protect politicians and special interests.

We uncover all the details of this report in our FIR special report titled "The Coming Gold Bull Market." To get your FREE copy, go here now.

How High Could Gold Go?

Financial analyst Tim Wood — a CPA and editor of "Cycles, News and Views" — has studied the likely price of gold based on long-term trends. His conclusion is that, based on a long-term oil ratio of 17.44 barrels per ounce, the price of gold currently should be between $1,178 and $2,200 an ounce.

Many experts agree that when artificial restraints on gold prices are overcome, gold will break $1,000 an ounce and possible shoot much higher.

We at FIR are not endorsing the idea that gold will break the $1,000 mark or even its previous record of $850 an ounce. But we do believe that during the coming economic storms, gold is an excellent hedge against inflation, war, recession and other unforeseen problems.

Plus, you get our update on the coming real estate crisis — a must-read for all investors.

Profiting From the Coming
Oil Price Collapse

FIR has been predicting that oil would recede to the high $30s or low $40s per barrel.

We predict that oil prices are unlikely to skyrocket, having been severely exaggerated through manipulation. We have been pounding the table, declaring that there is plenty of supply to meet worldwide demand, and soon those hedge funds will be dumping their oil contracts like there is no tomorrow.

Even Steve Forbes, president and CEO of Forbes Inc., predicts that soaring oil prices are only temporary and that a massive price collapse will dwarf the Dot-Com crash that began in 2000.

In this issue of FIR we reveal why many of the "doom and gloom" forecasts of "peak oil" are based on a common misunderstanding about oil supplies. Forbes blames the oil price spike on rising inflation and aggressive buying on the part of burgeoning Pacific Rim countries.

In fact, research tells us that this is the fifth time the world has "run out of oil."

Dire warnings of impending shortages like those we are now hearing about were also issued just after World War I. And the "permanent oil shortage" of the 1970s gave way to the glut and price collapse of the 1980s, and on and on.

But despite price hikes, we are not paying less for gasoline than people did in the 1980s or in 1935 (after prices are adjusted for inflation).

Our FIR subscribers have made big profits over the past year since we first predicted oil was going to $60 a barrel.

We have made a killing in stocks like Oil Service Holders Trust (+75%), Diamond Offshore Drilling (+169%), USGI Global Resources Fund (+49%), Devon Energy Corp. (+83%) and ExxonMobil (+41%) just to name a few.

While oil and energy investments in general should remain in every savvy investor's portfolio, we advised FIR subscribers to take some profits and sell half of their energy positions in our last issue. We now have some very attractive plays in the biotech sector that we are very excited about.

Real Estate Bubble Starting to Burst

As we have been predicting in FIR for months, there is growing evidence that the real estate bubble is starting to burst.

While the end of summer is traditionally a slow time for home sales, there are many other signs that the boom can't continue much longer. These include growing homeowner debt and deteriorating mortgage quality.

We have been warning that a real estate bust, primarily focused on residential properties, will hit the U.S. economy like a 2-by-4 whacking us in the side of the head.

In our special report "Protecting Yourself From the Coming Real Estate Crisis," we recommend the REITs you should sell now. Some of these — like Catellus (+66%); Tanger Factory (+46%) and Parkway (+33%) — have made FIR subscribers a ton of money. We're talking over 48% in 14 months. But it is now time to say goodbye to these and many other risky REITs.

Those who believe the boom will never stop in the United States need only look to Britain and Australia, where the real estate party has come to an abrupt end. In Australia, more companies have issued profit warnings than at any time in the last years.

Blaming rising interest rates, a declining property market and overly optimistic economic forecasts, 155 companies reduced their profit forecasts — more than double the number from the previous survey.

This news may be ominous for the U.S. economy.

If you own any REITs or have any of your family's portfolio invested in real estate, I urge you to get a copy of this issue. Go here now.
