Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleStansberry & Associates Investment Research founder Porter Stansberry, who built his reputation on finding safe-value investments poised to give his followers years of exceptional returns and also has a reputation as an independent thinker with a penchant for "out-of-consensus" viewpoints, has tweaked his toolkit to help investors hedge a bit against volatility while protecting themselves against the collapsing fiat currency system. In this exclusive Gold Report interview, he shares some of the techniques that you might consider Porter's own theories of relativity. Buy gold stocks when they're cheap compared to the price of bullion. Stock up on silver when the silver-to-gold relationship soars well past its historic 15:1 ratio.
