Today, we are joined by Philip Diehl, former Director of the United States Mint and President of U.S. Money Reserve, for a timely conversation about gold's renewed role in a world shaped by inflation, geopolitical stress, central bank demand, and uncertainty around fiat currencies.

From central bank buying and Chinese retail demand to Bitcoin, ETFs, physical coins, and the limits of the U.S. dollar system, this episode explores why gold is once again moving from the margins of portfolios toward the center of the macro conversation.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on LinkedIn.Follow Philip on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Why Philip Diehl believes investors should “buy the dip” in gold01:14 - Philip's career from public policy to the U.S. Mint06:08 - What U.S. Money Reserve does and why physical gold matters08:08 - The forces behind gold's powerful multi-year rally13:08 - Central bank buying, dollar risk, and portfolio diversification19:05 - Why some central banks may sell gold during stress22:18 - Chinese demand, cultural memory, and the role of retail buyers28:32 - Why Philip does not see Bitcoin as “digital gold”32:44 - Physical gold versus ETFs and the question of ownership37:10 - How retail investors behave during gold bull markets41:16 - Portfolio allocation and the changing case for gold45:52 - Why Philip expects gold to outperform equities over the next decade48:15 - Why today's gold market is not a repeat of the 1970s52:21 - Gold miners, production limits, and rising extraction costs55:58 - Fort Knox, revaluing U.S. gold reserves, and political reality59:24 - Lessons from Philip's career and how to learn more about goldCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

In front of an audience of global pension funds, insurance companies, family offices, and sovereign wealth funds, he sits down with Lucy Fletcher, Marieke van Kamp, and Martin Lemke to unpack how sophisticated investors are thinking about real estate today.

Was ist eigentlich Infrastruktur und warum verschwimmt ihre Grenze zur Immobilie gerade vor unseren Augen? Klar ist, die vertrauten Kategorien greifen nicht mehr. Was früher sauber getrennt war, wächst heute immer weiter zusammen, getrieben von der Frage, wie Energieversorgung, digitale Infrastruktur und neue Standortanforderungen ineinandergreifen. Britta Roden, verantwortlich für den Bereich Research Real Assets bei Swiss Life Asset Managers, kennt die Branche im Umbruch, in der andere Maßstäbe gelten als im klassischen Immobilienmarkt. Die vielleicht entscheidende Verschiebung: der Perspektivwechsel weg von einzelnen Assetklassen, hin zu einem ganzheitlichen Blick auf Real Assets. Die FRANKFURT WESTSIDE, ein Projekt von Swiss Life Asset Managers und BEOS, zeigt, wie das konkret aussieht: 70 Hektar, rund 6.000 Arbeitsplätze, Datencenter und Energieversorgung in einem Quartier – und kein Fonds, der das sauber abbilden kann. Für Investoren bedeutet das ein Umdenken, für Asset Manager eine neue Rolle und für den Markt die Herausforderung, diese wachsende Komplexität einzuordnen und zu vermitteln. Eine Folge über eine Assetklasse, die viele kennen und doch kaum jemand wirklich versteht.

The company is drilling in 2026, and spots in this financing are already filling fast. Click here to learn more: https://bit.ly/3Ol2g6THere's what was covered:Macro Musings - The metals are correcting, but the bull market remains intact. Gold pulled back more than $100 on the day and silver has retraced sharply from the $119 level seen just weeks ago to roughly $75, but the technical structure is still healthy. Elevated volatility continues to drive exaggerated price swings, and the gold volatility index remains a key factor behind the rapid consolidations. These moves are uncomfortable but normal in a structural bull market fueled by monetary and fiscal realities that haven't changed.The larger drivers remain overwhelming. U.S. debt is now approaching $40 trillion and projected by the Congressional Budget Office to hit $64 trillion within the next decade. That trajectory makes fiscal restraint implausible and reinforces gold's role as a monetary hedge. Meanwhile, central bank buying — especially from China — continues, and rate policy is shifting toward accommodation. The two-year Treasury yield has fallen to multi-month lows as markets increasingly price in rate cuts in the second half of the year. Growth is slowing, but not collapsing. Inflation is moderating, but not disappearing.Market Takes - Markets are undergoing rotation, not collapse. The leadership that defined the past several years — technology and communications — is beginning to give way to energy, materials, and defensive sectors like consumer staples. This shift reflects a maturing economic cycle, slowing — but still positive — growth, and a repricing of monetary expectations. The ten-year Treasury yield is falling alongside the dollar, reinforcing the favorable backdrop for commodities and precious metals.The key shift is the rate of change. Economic growth remains positive but is slowing from its previous pace. Inflation is declining but stabilizing at higher-than-target levels. That environment historically benefits hard assets and resource equities. Precious metals volatility will continue to produce sharp pullbacks, but these are opportunities for disciplined investors who understand the macro framework.Private placement demand reinforces the strength of the cycle. The most recent gold-antimony financing recommended through Private Placement Intel was raised at a $7 million market cap and is already trading at roughly a $12 million valuation, reflecting immediate market recognition of the opportunity. Demand for allocations exceeded supply by more than 2-to-1, forcing reductions in participation to preserve share structure integrity. This type of oversubscription is typical in early-stage bull markets, where capital is chasing limited high-quality opportunities.Additional financings are already in motion, including a base metals company with exposure to copper and gold in top-tier jurisdictions, as well as a North American gold project backed by a proven team with multi-million-ounce potential. These deals represent asymmetric opportunities that emerge early in commodity bull cycles and often deliver outsized returns as capital rotates into the sector. The next deal will open next week.

That early exposure to land and water shaped a life long focus on conservation. After a decade at The Conservation Fund structuring complex land deals, he co founded EIP in 2006 to answer a simple but difficult question.Can you use private capital, at scale, to restore degraded ecosystems while still meeting the financial expectations of institutional investorsOver almost twenty years, EIP has shown that the answer is yes.The firm acquires degraded land, restores wetlands, streams, and habitats, then sells mitigation credits to public and private developers that are required by law to offset their environmental impacts. It is a space where environmental protection, infrastructure, housing, and finance all intersect.In this conversation, Nick explains how mitigation banking actually works, why these markets are fully regulated and compulsory, how a new 400 million dollar fund will expand EIP's work, and why he believes more young people should bring serious financial skills into the environmental sector. ----------------------------------------Investing in Impact is powered by Causeartist, a nonprofit media company dedicated to bridging the gap between capital and culture by spotlighting founders, investors, and organizations reimagining how business can serve people and the planet.Through storytelling, events, and open-access education, Causeartist helps create a shared language of impact, inspiring more founders to build with purpose and more funders to invest with intention.By amplifying ideas and innovations across industries, Causeartist transforms awareness into action and cultivates a community where paying it forward is part of the foundation for growth.

This episode is sponsored by Manulife Investment Management and first appeared on The PERE Podcast As new industries evolve and accelerate, new opportunities are constantly arising for institutional investors in the private real assets space. It isn't always easy, however, for managers to grasp hold of these opportunities. As assets like data centers have become investable in recent years, managers have found that they need to devote time and effort to understand the dynamics around these unfamiliar assets. And the private markets industry has occasionally been guilty of obsessing over which labels to apply to emerging assets. This is the first episode of our Private Markets 2030 podcast miniseries, part of PEI Group's wider initiative exploring how private markets are evolving as we enter the decade's second half. Across the series, we unpack how managers can adapt, attract capital and deliver performance in an increasingly complex market. Joining us are three guests from Manulife Investment Management: Erin Patterson, global co-head of research and strategy; Maggie Coleman, the firm's chief investment officer for real estate equity and co-head of global portfolio management; and John Anderson, global head of corporate finance and infrastructure. They discuss how multi-product managers have an advantage in expanding into new opportunity sets and argue that a multi-product approach offers obvious benefits around diversification, while allowing managers the flexibility to pivot into new opportunity sets.

CBRE Investment Management's Co-CEO and CIO, Adam Gallistel, offers insights on where real assets investors can find strong return opportunities in today's market. He discusses shifting strategies amid higher interest rates, alternative asset classes, the role of operational expertise and why Europe offers attractive relative value right now. Prioritize operations and asset selection: Gallistel emphasizes that “hope is not a strategy”—returns will come from income growth and strong asset selection rather than relying on market-driven cap rate compression. Diversification matters: Niche sectors like data centers and student housing offer non-correlated income streams and resilience compared to traditional “big four” asset classes. Europe looks compelling: Europe offers relative value and growth potential, making it an attractive complement to a U.S. property portfolio. Infrastructure and power are critical: CBRE IM is investing in solutions like battery storage and renewable energy to capitalize on growing demand for power in the digital economy. Overlooked markets show promise: Gallistel sees opportunities in U.S. Midwest real estate markets as supply dynamics shift.
