According to Porter Stansberry, founder of one of the largest independent financial research firms in the world, it is happening again. Fortune calls it 'the biggest change to the world's relationship with the dollar' in a generation. Stansberry says Trump's money reset - enacted through executive orders and a treaty signed by 13 nations in December 2025 called Pax Silica - could determine whether you are enriched or quietly impoverished by the shift already underway.Read Porter Stansberry's full briefing and find out which moves to make now 11/28/202525,663,359 shares $2.13 billion +5.8%8.9%4.86 $83.08 11/14/202524,258,963 shares $2.01 billion -16.8%8.4%5.24 $82.83 10/31/202529,159,405 shares $2.42 billion +2.1%10.1%6.31 $82.98 10/15/202528,560,000 shares $2.37 billion +5.1%9.8%7.7 $82.99 9/30/202527,170,000 shares $2.25 billion -3.6%N/A8 $82.96 9/15/202528,190,000 shares $2.34 billion +17.0%N/A7.9 $82.96 8/31/202524,090,000 shares $2.00 billion +1.4%8.5%6.9 $82.98 8/15/202523,750,000 shares $1.96 billion -1.8%N/A6.7 $82.67 7/31/202524,180,000 shares $2.00 billion +3.5%8.6%7 $82.52 7/15/202523,360,000 shares $1.92 billion +6.6%N/A6.8 $82.38 6/30/202521,920,000 shares $1.82 billion +0.6%7.7%5 $82.86 6/15/202521,790,000 shares $1.80 billion +0.9%7.4%4.8 $82.41 5/31/202521,590,000 shares $1.78 billion +0.3%7.4%4.6 $82.63 5/15/202521,520,000 shares $1.77 billion -5.4%7.3%4.5 $82.42 4/30/202522,740,000 shares $1.89 billion -0.4%N/A4.9 $83.12 4/15/202522,820,000 shares $1.89 billion -19.1%7.8%5 $82.61 3/31/202528,190,000 shares $2.33 billion +1.8%10.0%6.5 $82.73 3/15/202527,700,000 shares $2.28 billion +1.3%9.8%7.7 $82.42 2/28/202527,340,000 shares $2.26 billion +0.6%9.7%7.6 $82.62 2/15/202527,180,000 shares $2.23 billion -1.2%9.6%7.8 $82.10 1/31/202527,510,000 shares $2.26 billion -7.0%N/A7.5 $82.29 1/15/202529,590,000 shares $2.43 billion -1.8%N/A8 $82.05 12/31/202430,130,000 shares $2.47 billion -4.2%N/A8.1 $81.98 12/15/202431,440,000 shares $2.58 billion +2.0%N/A8 $82.09 11/30/202430,810,000 shares $2.54 billion +0.2%N/A7.9 $82.32 11/15/202430,760,000 shares $2.52 billion -6.2%N/A7.6 $82.02 10/31/202432,790,000 shares $2.70 billion -1.5%N/A8.1 $82.36 10/15/202433,300,000 shares $2.75 billion -3.5%N/A7.6 $82.54 9/30/202434,520,000 shares $2.87 billion +0.1%N/A7.8 $83.15 9/15/202434,500,000 shares $2.87 billion +4.2%N/A8.4 $83.15A letter from Shannon Stansberry (Ad)Porter Stansberry nearly canceled the entire project. When he first saw the claimed returns - only one down year in nearly two decades and total gains of almost 2,000% - his immediate reaction was disbelief.
