If you keep cash in a U.S. bank account… read this NOW (Ad)

Since 2020, U.S. banks have been required to keep zero percent of deposits on hand, lending out nearly every dollar while paying savers just 0.04 percent interest. A new law, the GENIUS Act signed last summer, has cleared the way for a different kind of money to emerge this fall, one that could offer savings rates up to 6 percent. See what Ian King, Chief Strategist at Strategic Fortunes, has uncovered about this shift before it goes live.tc pixel

Why I went to Mount Rushmore (Ad)

A small miner just hit on gold in the hills surrounding Mount Rushmore, thanks to a breakthrough new technology. This could be one of the biggest gold finds since the 1870s, yet the stock still trades around 6 dollars. BlackRock and Vanguard have been quietly loading up on shares while most investors have missed the story. The same technology is unlocking hidden resource wealth across America, driving stocks up 227 percent, 378 percent, and even 773 percent.tc pixel
