\u201cThe circumstance that we existed in from 1980 to 2020 \u2014 while it was very pleasant \u2014 is over,\u201d says Rick Rule, legendary investor and founder of Rule Investment Media. Speaking with Daniela Cambone at the Rule Symposium in Boca Raton, Rule warns that the era of low interest rates has ended, and U.S. dollar hegemony is weakening.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt seems to me that the only way that you honor the nominal value of our obligations\u2026 is by devaluing the purchasing power,\u201d he says, pointing to over $100 trillion in entitlements and debt. \u201cYou honor the nominal obligation of Social Security to an old geezer like me by continuing to pay him $4,000 a month… but by devaluing the dollar.\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking back at history, Rule points out that in the 1970s, the purchasing power of the dollar \u201cdeclined by 75%,\u201d and that \u201cthe gold price ran 30-fold.\u201d He believes the setup is repeating and this time, \u201cwe are in a gold and gold equities bull market.” No, we’re not waiting for it. We’re here,” he concludes.<\/p>\n
Is America quietly inflating its way out of $100 trillion in liabilities?<\/p>\n
At the Rick Rule Symposium in Boca Raton, veteran investor Rick Rule didn’t mince words: the era of U.S. dollar dominance is ending<\/strong>, and gold is already in a confirmed bull market. For Americans over 55 who’ve watched purchasing power erode and Washington spiral deeper into debt, this isn’t just theory\u2014it’s personal.<\/p>\n The core issue? Dollar collapse.<\/strong> And Rule believes the game has already begun.<\/p>\n According to Rule and other panelists at the symposium:<\/p>\n “You honor the obligation to old folks like me not by defaulting, but by devaluing what you pay us.” \u2014 Rick Rule<\/p><\/blockquote>\n This isn’t speculation. It’s history repeating:<\/p>\n Expect a similar trajectory now, Rule says.<\/p>\n Rule didn’t just predict a gold rally\u2014he declared it’s already happening:<\/p>\n “We’re not waiting for the bull market\u2014we’re in it.<\/strong>” \u2014 Rick Rule<\/p><\/blockquote>\n For seasoned investors, this echoes past bull cycles. First, metal prices move. Then the top miners. Then, the rest of the sector.<\/p>\n Rule also dismantled distractions like:<\/p>\n As Rule put it, government doesn’t need a master plan to wreck the dollar. They’re simply riding the wave of unsustainable debt and political cowardice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n “I doubt those in government are competent enough to have a master plan.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n When currencies collapse, trust evaporates. That’s where tangible assets<\/strong> like gold and silver shine:<\/p>\n As Rule emphasized, every expert on the panel had a different view of the problem<\/strong> but agreed on the solution: own gold.<\/strong><\/p>\n Don’t wait for more headlines about de-dollarization, debt ceilings, or inflation spikes. This transition is already underway.<\/strong><\/p>\n Last year, Rick Rule said dollar decline was “inevitable but not imminent.” Now?<\/p>\n “It has to happen now. It’s happening now.<\/strong>“<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Ignore Wall Street’s distractions. The real risk isn’t market volatility. It’s the slow-motion destruction of the dollar<\/strong> itself.<\/p>\n Gold and silver aren’t just smart bets.
