Ron Paul: Love Him or Hate Him, His Investment Approach is a Big-time Winner!

So says Scott Rubin (www.benzinga.com) in an article* which Lorimer Wilson, editor of www.munKNEE.com (Your Key to Making Money!) presents below in a heavily edited, abridged, reformatted, and in some places paraphrased, version of the original to provide you with a fast and easy read. The author’s views and conclusions are unaltered and no personal comments have been included to maintain the integrity of the original article. Please note that this paragraph must be included in any article re-posting to avoid copyright infringement. Rubin goes on to convey that:

In his most recent financial disclosure, Paul had between $1.6 million to $3.5 million in gold mining stocks. He also had stakes in three bear market funds, which profit from declining stock prices. Paul has held positions in major gold miners such as Goldcorp (GG), Agnico Eagle Mines (AEM), and Barrick Gold (ABX) since 1994 and also owns significant stakes in silver miners such as Mag Silver (MAG), Pan American Silver (PAAS) and Silver Wheaton (SLW). 

Paul’s predictions have been prescient and, based on his track record, he could likely school just about any financial adviser on the economy and economic history. In fact, many citizens probably wish Paul had been their financial adviser for the last 5 years, during which the S&P 500 has lost nearly 10%…

The average 10-year returns of the eight stocks listed in Paul’s top 10 holdings (the two other stocks do not have 10-year track records) are above 600% versus a loss for the S&P of 3% over the same time period.
