Tax hikes will soak you, spending programs will
impoverish you, recession will beat you—and the
stock market will take whatever’s left.


It’s official: The Obama plan is to, and I quote, “overreact.”

“Don’t come up late,” avows Larry Summers, newly-named by Barrack Obama as head of the National Economic Council, “and don’t come up short.”

Words that should send a chill through you.

Fire. Aim. Ready.

Dear Lord.

Larry Summers is gleeful that he can load on debt for the next 30 years at 4%.

Oh, my.

Get Busy
Helping Yourself

Hello, I’m Dick Young and I believe in winning by never losing. NEVER, EVER. I am writing to you today to do what I can to STOP your losses from becoming much BIGGER.

The loss I’m talking about is the loss of everything you’ve sweated for—all gone in the next 55 days.

The biggest mistake you can make now is: wait. Wait for the market to come back, for the Democrats to bail everyone out. WORST OF ALL: wait for the Inauguration on January 20.

You don’t have time. Not at this point in your life. And what you must do is best done TODAY.

Robin Hood’s America

Last time there was a filibuster-proof Democratic senate, we got Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society. The time before that, we got FDR’s New Deal.

A cornerstone of The New Deal was, of course, Fannie Mae, down 98% this year and now under government conservatorship because, as Warren Buffet said, “They had a blank check.”

Rich America
Poor America
What the rich know about creating wealth...that the poor mistake
for a handout.

Washington has great power to destroy wealth, but it has never
possessed the power to create it.

It never will.

Watch Washington flex its muscles in 2009 over fuel prices, free trade, the drug industry, alternative energy, death taxes, income taxes, payroll taxes, every imaginable sort of tax, credit markets, banking, drilling, the dollar, and on and on.

Each new “initiative” will trigger a convulsion in the markets.

But here is an opportunity for
YOU to do something that no government, even an unbridled one, can ever do: create new wealth.

We don’t have much time. Grasp the opportunity now.

Get ready. Here comes the New Deal II. Are you ready for the greatest forced transfer of wealth in history? Are you ready to protect yourself?

You Have Only 55 Days

You have a choice right now: You can be rich or you can be poor. It is entirely up to you and what you do next.

I have laid out for you a program of self-protection and wealth-creation. This program is not based on any theorizing or predicting. It is an attempt to face facts and turn the situation to our advantage where possible. Grasp the possibilities.

A Critical Moment

The next 12 months will be momentous. Count on it. How you play it will determine your standard of living for the next decade. Don’t let the headlines distract you. The real news will not be televised, and the politicians are clueless.

The real news is this: The planet is being remade. Entire nations are withering, entire neighborhoods are dying, and for millions of people left behind, the future will not exist in any meaningful way.

Unless you read every word of this urgent report, you risk getting trapped on the windy side of this change.

Please understand, I am no pessimist. For every householder trapped in a suddenly insupportable monthly mortgage payment, in a dying neighborhood, in a shrinking economy, stuck with a portfolio of wildly overvalued stocks…

…there is another householder living debt-free in a burgeoning township, in a booming economy, sporting a portfolio bulging with stocks picked up for pennies on the dollar, who eagerly anticipates a living standard rising higher and higher, borne upward on a fabulous tide of wealth.

For Investors, The Implication Is Clear...
We Face A Stark Choice:
FEAST OR FAMINE

Most of the companies stashed away in the portfolios of conservative investors are ticking time-bombs with...

slowing earnings, already showing up in quarterly reports
negative cash flow in 2008
narrowing operating margins, and
slowing sales growth
Own The Survivors

You may be wondering what stocks will thrive in this tumultuous environment.

Bluntly, there won’t be many—but they will do extremely well. They live within their means and never “enhance” their performances.

Globalization Death Watch
The Neighborhood Effect—New Profit Opportunities in a
Post-Global World

High fuel costs are rapidly changing the way the world works. You’d better change your investment strategy to match. That’s why Young’s Intelligence Report subscribers just took their 400% profit in coal to the bank.

The cost of shipping that coal from Appalachia to China is changing the profit equation. That spells trouble for every stock—from Boeing to Wal-Mart.

The Great Globalization
Boom Is Over

For the last 20 years, supply chains that stretched from Chicago to Sao Paulo to Shanghai and back again have been greased by cheap diesel.

But the cost of a standard shipping container has tripled—and the speed of the ship that carries that container has been cut by 20% to save on fuel.

There goes your just-in-time inventory system. The dry bulk rate—cost of shipping—is about to double. There goes Costco’s margins.

Listen, I believe that globalization will survive, but mostly in the form of ideas. Apple, for example, will continue to use London designers, even Taiwan chips, but production may be moved closer to the market.

And this is for a product that weighs just a few ounces.

But a product like La-Z-Boy recliners, once made in China, is about to be made back in North Carolina, where the company started out. It’s just too costly to haul those chairs all over the map.

The place where what I call The Neighborhood Effect has an instant profit-potential is: Australia.

"The Aussie Advantage"

The same day that I told my Young’s Intelligence Report subscribers to book 400% profit in coal, I told them to buy iron, and the reason for both moves is The Neighborhood Effect.

Iron exists in sumptuous quantities in Australia, and Australia happens to be parked on the doorstep of the world’s largest consumer of steel, China.

For every $1 that diesel prices go up, Brazil, the other big iron ore producer, is effectively pushed another 100 miles further away from its top market, China.

Bad news for Brazilian iron giant Rio Doce. Good news for Aussie competitor BHP Billiton.

It gets better. Western Australia is practically one solid block of high-grade iron ore, 190,000 square miles in size. Pick up a rock out in this red desert, and you can pretty much toss it into an iron smelter.

And that’s exactly what is happening, but on a massive scale.

It’s Called The Big Dig

Giant red boulders in the Kalgoorlie region are dumped straight onto mile-long trains, shipped to the coast, unloaded into bulk carrier ships, sent to China, crushed and poured into smelters...and turned into hot rolled steel.

So pure is the iron from this region, no further processing is required in most cases. The Chinese are vacuuming up every speck of red dirt they can out of Western Australia, creating a land of billionaires and frontier boom towns.

How long will it all last? One calculation puts the ore reserves of Australia at 34,000 million tons, enough to keep us all in flatware, countertops and skyscrapers for the next 300 years.

Double the Price

What’s more, the price of iron ore has just been hiked by 97%! Aussie miners are forcing Asian steelmakers to pay a “neighborhood tax.”

While Brazilian miners were able to push through a 70% price increase recently, Australians argued that the lower costs of shipping locally means their iron is worth more.

The argument worked.

The spot price of Aussie ore has doubled in the last month. Wall Street was expecting a 25%—50% hike, so this is an incredible coup for our miners.


They have fat dividends, they have growing operating margins, their earnings are accelerating, and analysts are falling over themselves to revise their estimates upwards.

But ABOVE ALL—and this is so vital I’ll put it in capital letters:

ABOVE ALL THEIR BUSINESS
IS NOT TIED TO THE HEALTH
OF THE U.S. ECONOMY

Most investors I talk to need to HALVE the number of holdings tied to the U.S. dollar and economy—and DOUBLE the number of holdings with thriving overseas business.

EXHIBIT 1: BHP BILLITON
EXHIBIT 2: CATERPILLAR
EXHIBIT 3: CONAGRA
EXHIBIT 4: NESTLE
I want to give you chapter and verse on these 4 winning enterprises—and two dozen more—in the economic report I plan to send you immediately. The report is called The 26 Winners of 2009.

This list exemplifies every principle of investing I hold dear and that has enabled my subscribers to thrive and has enabled me to never, ever have a losing year in almost three decades. (A record that no one to my knowledge comes close to matching.)

Consider this report, The 26 Winners of 2009, the cornerstones of your investment strategy for the year ahead.

Don’t face the next year without first consulting this report closely—and soon. Get all the information today.

Let’s Unlock America’s
Treasure Chest Of Energy

America is blessed with a truly vast treasure chest of natural resources.

Yet millions of acres, sitting far off our coasts, and in the remotest areas of Alaska and the Rockies, have been locked away from its citizens by Washington.

Ten billion barrels of oil are in the remote Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Another 86 billion barrels sit far offshore in the Outer Continental Shelf.

Top it off with 800 billion barrels of oil in the shale deposits deep in the Rockies.

It’s all ours. And it’s all waiting. And not one cent of its value needs go to sheikdoms with obvious ties to global terrorism. Will we reach out our hands for this bounty?

They’re Helping Themselves
In North Dakota And Pennsylvania
(You Should Too)

In North Dakota today, there is a newly minted millionaire dusting off his mesh cap.

One new millionaire, by all reckoning, is being made every day by these high oil prices.

If you’d like to become one yourself, focus on domestic exploration, domestic drilling and domestic processing, refining and pipeline initiatives.

This is not the ordinary, 10% here, 20% there variety of wealth. This is wealth of the Jed Clampett sort.

The Great American Oil Boom is happening right now, and my question is: Why aren’t you a part of it?

The Marcellus shale reserve in southwest Pennsylvania contains up to 516 trillion cubic feet of gas. The price of gas could double from here and still it would be cheap.


The Bakken oil shale in North Dakota contains up to 300 billion barrels of oil.
I’ll bet you never even heard of the little wildcatter that’s getting first dibs on all of this, but I can tell you this: Up in North Dakota, they’re already naming their grandchildren after the company—out of sheer gratitude.

The stock was up 73% in just 4 months, but that doesn’t impress me. This is a long-term wealth-builder, not a speculative play on oil prices.

THE FIRST WAY WE PROFIT: Buy into domestic minor-league oil and gas explorers.

These are the unsung heroes of the oil patch. You won’t see their CEOs on TV with fluffy hair, and you’ll NEVER hear a squeak about them out of Cramer’s pump-and-dump operation, either. But they do issue earnings, and the next report is out in just a few weeks.

Buy before—and kick back alongside our North Dakota pals to enjoy the fireworks.

Details in an investment report I want to send you, called The U.S. Oil Boom. Best part is, it’s FREE.

Real Profits—Not Speculation

Speculators drove up the oil—so we’re told. Baloney. Or its evil Exxon, or hurricanes, or fat sheiks. All baloney.

Six billion people across the face of the Earth are trading in their bicycles for cars. And this is happening in countries where a gallon of gas already costs twice what it does here.

So get real. Count on high gas prices and employ a strategy to profit greatly from it.

I’ve told you one way we profit.

HERE’S THE SECOND: Home grown pipeline layers and refiners are the second way to get rich in high oil prices.

Buckeye Partners pumped out a sweet mix of dividends, safety and growth (total return was 20%) for Young’s Intelligence Report subscribers for many years.

With a Price-to-Earnings ratio under 10 and still not enough pipelines in the U.S. to meet demand, it’s a no-brainer.

Kinder Morgan’s pipeline business is simple and predictable—huge pluses in this particular business.

The company’s new pipeline gets natural gas from the Rockies to Pennsylvania for the first efficient market in this resource ever. It’ll be open in the next few months and pumping cash (an 8.7% yield!) to share holders immediately.

In your FREE report The U.S. Oil Boom, I give you details on these two ways to profit safely, right here in the U.S., from oil’s high prices.

“OK, SO: You’ve Got Your Million (Or More).
You’re Ready To Rumble Through Retirement.
Then You Get A Few 770-Point Down Days And It Hits You:

YOU’VE GOT A BIG PROBLEM"

You counted on, what, a 10% growth in your portfolio? Eleven percent, you say? Fine. And you’re smart, so you deducted inflation’s hidden tax at, what, 3%?

Well, We’ve Got A
Couple Of Problems Here

Let’s take the less painful one first: inflation. The news is: food inflation and energy inflation are each closer to 8% than 3%. Food inflation is an entirely new phenomenon so don’t blame your adviser (unless he’s a WWII veteran, in which case, why’s he still working?), and don’t blame your box of software.

What You CAN’T Count On
A free market: A protectionist backlash in industrial countries is now in full swing.
Democracy: With the industrial world in recession, much of the momentum in the global economy is coming from countries with authoritarian regimes interested in grabbing power, not improving the lives of their people.
Hemispheric dominance: A massive shift in power is under way—south of the Equator. We have no influence there at all.
Shared interests: Suddenly, from China to Bolivia, it’s everyone for themselves, and may the Devil take the hindmost.
Cheap energy: The cornerstone of global trade has been kicked to the curb. The new wave is Nearsourcing. And high oil prices have created such wealth for corrupt producers as to scramble the entire power structure of the globe.
A healthy financial system: We don’t know how bad the problem is—and that’s precisely the problem. The FDIC is pulling every bank examiner still alive out of retirement—not an encouraging sign.
Russia: “My good friend, Vladimir” is the poster child for the barbaric new Me First nationalism—and damn the consequences. Expect more of the same, even from the more civilized Old World.
The U.S. consumer: With stocks and real estate falling in value, the U.S. consumer is cutting back. The U.S. is no longer the importer of last resort for the rest of the world.
A house that you can sell: Layoffs are just beginning in earnest. Foreclosures are bringing entire states (Georgia, parts of Florida, much of California) to their knees. And it’s just Year One of The Great Boomer Cash Out.
All this, and the Era of Equities appears to be over. This is reality, not a forecast. So: What CAN we count on now?




No one saw it coming. (Well, Young’s Intelligence Report subscribers did, but that’s not my point.)

Corn futures hit a 12-year high this year. Insatiable demand from the emerging middle classes in Asia piled on top of the insatiable demand of the ethanol producers, piled on top of bad harvests for Australia and Russia. It’s a recipe for disaster.

Heating oil, gasoline, natural gas—all up by double since last year. Did you factor that in?

More directly, food and energy costs: Two torpedoes aimed right at your retirement dream. I’ll tell you how to actually PROFIT from this new situation in a second. Hang in there.

Now, about those assumptions you made regarding stock market returns. Ten percent, eleven percent, whatever.

You Are In A WORLD
Of Trouble

You assumed your stock returns would be...POSITIVE, right?

Supposing your stock market returns are negative? Not for the next 35 years, you understand. Let’s prepare ourselves for mildly negative returns (say 5%) for the next 3 years. Right in line with history, as it happens.

Put food inflation, energy inflation and 3 years of stock market losses together and project out 5 years from today. I’ve done the math, so I’ll save you the bother:

HALF, YES HALF YOUR NEST EGG
—HAS GONE (And 30 Years To Go)

Your trip from the haves to the have-nots was swift and brutal. Are you taking notes? Listen to this next part, please.

None of this will happen...if you focus on yield. Call it your Retirement Survival Plan.

THIS ONE REPORT SEPARATES YOU FROM POVERTY—And It’s Free

THIS REPORT is called Pay Me Now and it shows you how to focus—really FOCUS—on yield. Very specifically, it tells you how to own:

New preferred issues, just out, voted A1/A grade, yielding upwards of 8%.


The Dividend Trust Fund yielding 15%. It does this by writing covered calls and slashing away all risk. I’ll explain how in your report, Pay Me Now.


The three recommended companies that have a long history of increasing their dividends. Maintaining this strategy, you could give yourself an 11% compound annual growth rate—more than sufficient to keep you among the Haves.


PLUS: Details in your report on how to construct a high-yield portfolio that’ll cover your back for the next 35 years.
Meet The Armadillo
This Is Its Moment

Here at Intelligence Report, we specialize in finding armadillos. These are companies that have been rendered by nature into perfect fighting machines, and perfect survival machines.

What You CAN’T Count On
A boom in domestic oil and gas exploration and production: This is not your ordinary sort of wealth. This is Jed Clampett wealth. Sudden, vast and all yours.
Gold: Trust has been betrayed, and no currency is safe. Especially the dollar. Beyond the safety it guarantees, there’s also the real prospect of doubling your wealth in gold in the next 12 months.
Nuclear power: Washington may fumble the ball on this one, but the game is over globally, and supplies of uranium are critically low. Buy before Inauguration Day.
Water: It’s the new oil—Boone Pickens is right. Dive in now.
A new middle class in Asia: The toothpaste is not going back into that tube. It is the biggest investment opportunity of our lives IF you play it smart and AVOID CHINA.
Australia: The Premier of Australia speaks fluent Mandarin because he knows his bread is buttered by China. Australia is one huge nugget of ore.
Limited supply, exploding demand: We’re running out of everything physical. Things replace equities. Once you grasp this, wealth is attracted to you like iron filings are drawn to a magnet.
Timberland, farmland: The boom is just beginning. In South America, you have to see it to believe it. And remember: Low correlation to stocks equals wealth now.
The Armadillo: Sharp claws, broad of back. Ugly as sin. It wins by never losing. Isn’t it time you learned The Way of the Armadillo?




The armadillo is God’s Sherman Tank. Invest in these armadillos today.

The armadillo is aggressive. Using my Armadillo Strategy, you could have turned $8,750 into $405,125 in just 13 WEEKS. These are exact figures, and give you a real-life example of what this approach can do for you.

The armadillo carries a thick coat of protective armor. Use my Armadillo Strategy and you will not lose principal. In the last 33 years of using this strategy, I have not taken a significant loss. That’s because I invest in companies with real profits, with built-in protection against inflation and recession, in areas where the trends are so locked in place, they cannot be stopped.

First: Survive

The armadillo is a survivor. One of earth’s oldest animals, time has left him stripped of all cuteness. My Armadillo Strategy ignores fads and crazes. It ignores flashy “peacock” stocks and today’s media darlings.

It keeps things radically simple: Hunt and protect.

My Armadillo Strategy doesn’t try to time, and it doesn’t pretend to know tomorrow’s headlines. Many multimillionaire users of my Armadillo Strategy spend, so they tell me, less than 3 hours a month managing their entire portfolio. These are top Fortune 500 executives and some of America’s wealthiest families.

In the year ahead, we will need such armadillos.

Join us here at Intelligence Report. Like the armadillo, we keep life (investing life, anyway) simple. (If it takes more than an hour a month to manage your investments, that’s fine, but you shouldn’t have to spend longer.) We are risk-averse. Self-reliant. Slow to trust. Long-term in outlook. And, quietly, mightily, successful.

Are you one of us? I hope so. Details in your FREE report.

“The Worst Is Yet To Come”
—Kenneth Rogoff, Chief Economist, International Monetary Fund

“But Not For You”
—Dick Young, CEO, Young Investment Research

You don’t have much time, but you can, you definitely can get to safety. And safety is your first goal now.

I’ve discussed the very targeted, specific opportunities that come with the current breakdown, but you must not neglect the issue of safety.

And, bluntly, this requires that you sell a great deal of your stocks in order to reallocate your assets into areas that zag when Wall Street zigs.

Let me help you successfully navigate the upcoming shocks of the economy. Remember, you are protected by our six-month guarantee. Join us today and be prepared in the tumultuous next 12 months.

Sincerely,


Richard C. Young
