In this episode of In It To Win It, Rusche breaks down how he approaches precious metals, royalties, and energy investments as markets head into 2026. He explains why Royal Gold remains one of his highest-conviction holdings even after a significant run, highlighting its margin profile, diversification, and resilience under conservative gold and silver price stress tests. Rusche also discusses the dynamics of the current gold bull market, comparing recent parabolic moves to the late-1970s cycle while emphasizing that his edge comes from micro-level analysis rather than macro prediction.
The conversation expands into Rusche’s broader investment philosophy, which prioritizes buying undervalued assets that are unpopular and avoiding high-cost, leveraged miners late in commodity cycles. He outlines why royalty companies tend to outperform through both bull and bear markets, how recessions can create exceptional long-term opportunities in copper, and why oil and gas may reward patient accumulation despite muted expectations for 2026. Across silver, nickel, lithium, and critical minerals, Rusche stresses realistic price assumptions, capital discipline, and the importance of downside protection as the foundation for building durable, generational wealth in volatile resource markets.
Key Insights in this episode:
✅ Royalty companies offer downside protection in volatile markets
✅ Royal Gold remains undervalued even after a major run
✅ Valuation discipline matters more than price momentum
✅ Gold and silver are in a powerful but late-stage bull move
✅ Parabolic metals prices require conservative assumptions
✅ Copper offers long-term upside but near-term recession risk
✅ Oil and gas favor patient accumulation into 2026
✅ High-margin business models outperform in downturns
