Maria’s Note: Last week, we introduced you to investing prodigy Chris Weber. Chris is the newest expert to join the Rogue Economics team.

If you passed him on the street, you’d have no idea this average-looking man with gray hair and glasses has attracted a loyal following of thousands of investors from around the world.

But a look at his track record shows why so many have trusted him over the years… Including some of the country’s best-known economists, some political theorists, a 12-term U.S. congressman, the heads of Swiss banks, and some of the world’s wealthiest and most powerful investors.

Chris made his first brilliant money move at just 16 years old. And by 18, he was independently wealthy. He built an eight-figure net worth – without working a regular job as an adult or investing other people’s money.

And today, Chris believes America is on the verge of its next financial shift. That’s why, for the first time, he agreed to go on camera to share the details. You can watch his presentation here. Or, read on for more from Chris…


Imagine making a 10,000% return on your first investment while still a teenager… and becoming independently wealthy as a result.

Or imagine living like royalty in London, England… Vienna, Austria… the French Riviera… and a private island off the Atlantic Coast all thanks to your trades and investments.

For most folks, that sounds like a dream.

But my name is Chris Weber… and that’s how I’ve lived my life.

You may not know my name. That’s because I’ve preferred living my life quietly, out of the spotlight, writing to a small but loyal group of investors from around the world.

Over my career, my followers have included some of the country’s best-known economists, some political theorists, a 12-term U.S. congressman, the heads of Swiss banks, and some of the world’s wealthiest and most powerful investors.

I’ve even consulted for Ronald Reagan while he was in the White House.

And along the way, I’ve built an eight-figure net worth all from my own trades and investments.

I’m telling you this today because, for the first time, I’ve agreed to go on camera, on record with my next prediction

I’m calling it “America’s Next 1,000% Trade.”

It centers on a monetary shift set to hit in March 2024. And I believe – if you make an unconventional but easy move with your money… you can set yourself up for life.

Just like the moves I made decades ago have allowed me to live a life of financial freedom, on my own terms. But first, let me show you how I got there…

10,000% Gain on Rare Gold Coins

When I was just 16, in 1971, I made my first currency-driven trade.

As you may recall, that was a tumultuous year for the world’s money system. President Nixon ended the last tie the U.S. dollar had to gold.

Since the Bretton Woods Agreement in 1944, the dollar had been backed by gold. And other countries pegged the value of their currencies to the dollar.

But by the early 1970s, inflation was soaring. And fears were mounting that America’s creditors would want to swap their dollars for gold… and drain the country’s gold reserves.

So on August 15, 1971, President Nixon went on TV to announce that the U.S. was closing the “gold window.” It would no longer convert dollars to gold at a fixed rate of $35 an ounce.

I was a keen student of the international currency system. And I reasoned that without its gold backing, the dollar would fall against the Swiss franc and other sounder currencies.

I also figured gold would shoot up from its government-mandated price of $35, after being untethered.

So I bought overseas currencies and gold with $600 I saved from working a paper route. 

It was illegal for American citizens to hold gold at the time. But you could get around the ban by buying rare gold coins.

So I bought old British sovereigns, which were made of 22-carat gold. And I bought them “on margin.” This allowed me to control four of these rare gold coins for the price of one.

Two years later, an ounce of gold cost $207. And thanks to buying the coins on margin, I made 10,000%. That turned my $600 investment into $60,000.

That was a lot of money in 1971 – especially for a teenager. With inflation, that would be about $456,000 today.

This allowed me to follow my passion for investing.

So I chose to work for a newsletter my father subscribed to… and then embarked on a series of fortune-making market calls while following my boss’ advice and traveling the world.

Betting Big on Bonds

My next big trade was in November 1978. I reckoned the U.S. dollar had fallen too far. So I backed a rising dollar. And it was perfect timing.

The U.S. Dollar Index – which measures the strength of the dollar versus its trading partners’ currencies – bottomed that month. I made 1,000% on that bullish dollar trade.

Then in January 1980, I put my money into Treasury bonds.

At the time, you could earn 11% a year on the 30-year Treasury bond. That sounds great… but this was at the peak of the inflationary cycle that began in the early 1970s.

By 1980, the annual inflation rate topped 13%. Most folks at the time weren’t interested in an 11% yield. Once you accounted for inflation, it was a losing bet.

But I saw what then-Fed chairman Paul Volcker was doing to rein in rising prices. I believed Volcker would succeed in breaking inflation. So I loaded up on bonds.

Again, my timing was spot on. Inflation peaked in 1980 and was as low as 1.9% by 1986.

I lived off the income from those bonds through most of the 1980s.

Moving on to the 1990s, I turned my focus to infrastructure stocks. I did this after an investment scouting trip to Southeast Asia. Things were booming there.

This paid off so well that, by 1995, at the age of 40, I decided to retire.

But I couldn’t stay away…

600% Gain on Gold

I soon realized that retirement wasn’t for me. I’ve always loved the challenge of beating the market. I loved it so much (and still do), that I couldn’t stay retired for long.

And so, in 2001, I got back into gold again.

Gold had been in a bear market for more than 20 years. When it bottomed out near $250 per ounce from a peak of $850 in 1980, I believed it had gone as low as it was going to go.

No one else saw this. But as the gold price began to rise over the next few years, it helped me bag a 600% return.

But the call I’m most proud of went out to my subscribers on November 17, 2007.

I told them to get out of the stock market because I was convinced it was going to fall apart. And we know what happened after that…

Subscribers who followed my warning sidestepped the roughly 50% drop in stocks that followed.

I also recommended they buy gold and silver. And these metals went up as much as 170% and 90% over the next five years.

The profitable calls I’ve made for my subscribers are too many to list here…

But the most recent – a trade on rising interest rates I sent to my subscribers in March 2021 – is up 41%.

Now, you can’t profit from my past calls, I know.

But you do have the chance to subscribe to my newsletter, The Weber Report. Because as I mentioned, for the first time, I’ve agreed to go on camera, on record with my next prediction

Make This Unconventional Money Move

I’m calling it “America’s Next 1,000% Trade.”

It centers on a monetary shift set to hit in March 2024. And I believe – if you make an unconventional but easy move with your money… you can set yourself up for life.

And even if you’re not interested in that… you need to pay attention.

Because nearly everyone – regular folks and professionals alike – is making a big mistake today.

And it’s the exact same mistake everyone made in the 1970s, when I booked multiple gains of more than 1,000%.

Today, the public believes inflation has peaked and that interest rates will drop down from nearly 6%, where they are today, to about 2%.

I don’t think that’s the case.

That’s why I urge you to clear time on your schedule today. As you read this, I’m going on camera for the first time to share the details. Watch that here.
