For more than 50 years, the New Orleans Investment Conference has been a gathering place for investors seeking clarity during uncertain times. Known as the longest-running investment conference in the world, the annual event has built its reputation by convening some of the most prominent names in finance, economics, politics and precious metals.
The 2025 edition arrives at a critical moment. With gold at record highs and seemingly headed higher, while silver and mining stocks remain at undervalued levels, and with central banks trapped between decelerating growth and heightening inflation, this year’s conference is drawing an especially large and eager audience. Attendees will hear directly from dozens of today’s top analysts, experts and thought leaders across all market sectors, macroeconomics, metals and mining.
The Crossroads for Ideas
The New Orleans Investment Conference is renowned for being ahead of its time. Past speakers have included Margaret Thatcher, Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand and Alan Greenspan. Its sessions have served as both a platform for contrarian views and a stage for bold predictions that accurately forecast major economic and market events.
“The conference has always been about more than just numbers,” said Brien Lundin, who has organized the event for decades. “It’s where people come to grapple with big ideas — about money, liberty and the future of markets.”
This year, those ideas will be presented at a crucial turning point in the markets, with central banks shifting to monetary easing even as inflationary pressures percolate.
An Unsurpassed Lineup
The 2025 speaker roster reflects that breadth. Experts and commentators on geopolitics, macroeconomics, markets and liberty such as Matt Taibbi, Rick Rule, Danielle DiMartino Booth, Robert Kiyosaki, Brent Johnson, George Gammon, Peter Boockvar, Jim Bianco, Jim Iuorio, Adam Taggart, Peter Schiff, Adrian Day, Mike Maloney, Alex Green, Dave Collum, Robert Prechter and many more are scheduled to appear.
Political and cultural voices are also represented. Mary Katharine Ham, a nationally recognized journalist and author known for her sharp commentary and sense of humor, joins the program alongside Peter St. Onge and Viva Frei, both of whom have built large followings through outspoken analysis of politics and economics.
Notable investors and educators including Robert Helms, Russ Gray, Mark Skousen, Lawrence Lepard, Jordan Roy-Byrne, Dan Oliver, Jeff Phillips, Lobo Tiggre, Tavi Costa, Nick Hodge, Chris Powell, Dana Samuelson, Jennifer Shaigec, Rich Checkan, Thom Calandra, Mary Anne & Pamela Aden, Omar Ayales, Bill Murphy, Gerardo Del Real, Steve Hochberg, Albert Lu, Lindsay Hall, Kerry Stevenson and Brien Lundin round out the list.
Opportune Timing
For attendees, the value lies in more than just the lectures. The conference provides opportunities to meet directly with mining executives, discover emerging companies and compare notes with fellow investors. In past years, early exposure to junior mining firms has often proven lucrative for participants who acted on insights from the conference floor.
As markets prepare for what some analysts describe as a “generational opportunity” in precious metals, the New Orleans Investment Conference remains the place to be to maximize these trends. Click here for more information and to lock in your place at this shouldn’t-be-missed event!
