At VRIC 2025, we were thrilled to have Lobo Tiggre join us for an insightful METALS 100 interview. Lobo shared his expert analysis on the performance of gold stocks in 2024, highlighting the divergence between senior and junior gold miners, and emphasized the importance of careful stock selection. He also addressed broader topics such as the global economic outlook, the potential for a recession, and the implications of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy.

Lobo further explored the impact of geopolitical risks, including the potential consequences of shifting U.S. policies under new leadership, and offered his views on the growing importance of critical minerals. Finally, he shared his top investment conviction for 2025—copper—explaining why it stands out among other commodities like gold, silver, and uranium. Stay tuned to our channel for more exclusive interviews and expert insights from industry leaders!

Lobo Tiggre is the founder and CEO of Louis James LLC, and the principal analyst and editor of IndependentSpeculator.com. He researched and recommended speculative opportunities in Casey Research publications from 2004 to 2018, writing under the name “Louis James.” While with Casey Research, he learned the ins and outs of resource speculation from the legendary speculator Doug Casey. Although frequently mistaken for one, Mr. Tiggre is not a professional geologist. However, his long tutelage under world-class geologists, writers, and investors resulted in an exceptional track record. A fully transparent, documented, and verifiable track record is a central feature of IndependentSpeculator.com services today. As of February 7, 2023, the average gain of all closed trades is 67%. Another key feature is that Mr. Tiggre will put his own money into the speculations he writes about, so his readers will always know he has “skin in the game” with them.
