Dear Reader,

Elon Musk just made a $17 billion move that could change the future of global communications forever.

His company SpaceX struck a deal to acquire wireless spectrum from EchoStar… the missing piece that allows Starlink satellites to act as “cell towers in space.”

With this deal, Starlink can now expand its capacity by more than 100x and begin eliminating mobile dead zones around the world.

The news sent shares of EchoStar surging 19%... but the biggest gains from this deal could still be on the horizon…

Because this could prove a key step in SpaceX finally filing its IPO paperwork.

Legendary tech investor Jeff Brown has been following this story for months…

He believes the coming IPO could be the biggest of the decade… and he’s showing everyday investors how they can claim a stake right now with as little as $500.

BREAKING NEWS

📉 Oil Just Declared Financial War

Overnight, the Middle East stopped threatening and started doing. Israel hit Iranian energy infrastructure and Iran fired back and targeted Gulf oil fields. The war officially spilled over the border and took the global oil supply with it.

Brent crude woke up at $119 a barrel. Wall Street analysts are now $200 to $250 a barrel isn’t off the table.

If that were to actually happen, let’s talk about what that actually means for your life.

1. The Inflation Nightmare: At $200 a barrel, manufacturing and farming costs double overnight. Every single thing you buy gets more expensive at the same time. The Fed would have no choice but to hike interest rates to slow it down. That means mortgages, car loans, and credit cards all get brutally more expensive while the economy crumbles underneath you. That's the nightmare combo economists call stagflation. We just call it chaos.

2. The Corporate Carnage: Delta, United, FedEx, UPS. Their entire business model runs on cheap fuel. At $200 oil they don't just struggle — they go bankrupt. Grocery store shelves get harder to stock. Planes get harder to fly. The government starts writing very large checks to keep civilization moving.

3. The Consumer Gets Cooked: Gas blows past $8 or $9 a gallon. Your entire paycheck goes to commuting and groceries. iPhones, vacations, restaurants — all gone. The consumer discretionary sector gets absolutely vaporized.

The Munch Take: The 2008 oil record of $147 a barrel is worth $215 in today's money. We're not quite at "fill the bathtub with canned goods" territory yet, but the thought has crossed my mind. Mostly because I have an Oreo problem. Regardless, watch oil like a hawk. It’s all the market cares about right now.

How to Claim Your Stake in SpaceX with $500 (Ad)

And when it goes public, you could cash out with the biggest payout of your life.

CHART OF THE DAY

😤 Gold and Silver Just Got Betrayed by Their Best Friend

Gold and silver are supposed to be the ultimate safe haven. The thing you run to when the world is on fire. Well, the world is literally on fire right now and they both just got absolutely bodied.

Congrats to everyone who thought precious metals would save them this week. Here's what actually happened.

1. The Zero Yield Problem: Gold is shiny and silver is pretty but neither of them write you a check every month. That's a massive problem when the Fed just confirmed rates are staying high and U.S. government bonds are handing out a guaranteed 5% return for doing absolutely nothing. Institutional money managers aren't sentimental. They will dump a bar of gold without blinking if a bond pays them more to sit on their hands.

2. King Dollar Rides Again: Just like it crushed Bitcoin earlier this week, the surging U.S. Dollar came for gold and silver next. When $119 oil has global investors terrified, everyone runs to the dollar as the last safe thing standing. And since gold is priced in dollars, a stronger dollar means cheaper gold. It's mechanical, it's cold, and it doesn't care about your feelings.

The Munch Take: Gold was supposed to be the one thing that held up when everything else collapsed. In the big picture and long-term, it does. But right now? It’s throwing a temper tantrum. It looks like the Dollar is, in fact, still King.
