About this listen

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable, audiobook edition of The New Case for Gold written and read by James Rickards.

In The New Case for Gold, James Rickards explains why gold is one of the safest assets for investors in times of political instability and market volatility, and how every investor should look to add gold to his or her portfolio.

Drawing on historical case studies, monetary theory and his personal experience as an investor, Rickards argues that gold should be a part of any prudent investor's portfolio.

Critic Reviews

The New Case for Gold reminds us that wayward policies bring about a search for money that is good as gold. What better than gold itself?
Excellent ... Rickards makes a compelling case for why those looking for a way to protect themselves and their families from economic chaos created by central bankers should consider gold. (Ron Paul, former US congressman and presidential candidate)
James Rickards gifts us once again with his clarity of prose, depth of experience and sound analysis ... An illuminating, original argument for gold as a critical contender in today's money games. The most important book on gold yet. (Nomi Prins, author of All the Presidents' Bankers)
We can't trust the Federal Reserve to do the honest work that Jim Rickards has done in writing this book ... Essential reading. (David A. Stockman, former OMB director and author of The Great Deformation)

Jim debunks some gold myths early in this book and spends the rest of the book explaining why gold is still important as a monetary metal & why investors would be wise to hold a % of their portfolio in gold.

Good book

Highly recommend listening. Very interesting, well researched and covers the topic from a macro to micro level in plane English without going off on a tangents. James describes the monitory system in a very clear and easy to understand way by sticking closely to his point at all times. Will definitely re-listen. Should form part of education system as mandatory reading..
