As we delve into the new year, I'd like to take a look at four key components of financial and personal security. Given the progression of events in the new century, I've found that the personal and financial aspects of preserving wealth have taken on overlapping characteristics. This means that it is imperative now, more than ever, that we consider these as contenders for building and protecting our wealth here at Intelligence Report.

Each month, I provide you with an Economic Analysis supplement to the issue. This supplement provides you with a bird's eye view of the indicators that I monitor on a regular basis. The incisive, story-telling charts included in this supplement are updated every month and range from "The Leaders" to "World Currency Reserves/World Gold Reserves." There will always be great new material as well as timely reference dates, and my comments spell out the meaning of each chart for you. Download in pdf format.
