The Achilles Heel of the Green-Energy Transition

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, investing veteran Rick Rule returns to the show. Rick is president and CEO of Rule Investment Media and a director at Sprott. He joins Dan and Corey to talk about the trend of global electrification and all things copper. (00:00)

Dan and Corey kick off the podcast by discussing a crucial topic – the global net-zero-emissions target set by institutions, corporations, and governments. To achieve this ambitious goal by 2050, there will need to be an increase in green-power generation and electric vehicles. A significant rise in demand for this essential resource would lead to higher copper prices. (00:48)

Rick then joins the conversation to share his profound insights on the electrification of the world. The copper talk continues, with Rick passionately emphasizing that achieving net-zero emissions is an inevitable and vital goal. Dan raises pertinent questions about copper production's inability to keep pace with demand. (22:07)

Then, Dan and Rick cover the two major copper-producing nations that have been at the forefront of meeting this demand... Chile and Peru. While Chile's mining industry is threatened by shifting political priorities, Peru grapples with the influence of nongovernmental organizations. (43:18)
