Ted Butler

Ted J. Butler is an independent analyst who writes at the intersection of metals, mining, and macroeconomics. Ted's career inadvertently began with his withdrawal from his master's in finance degree - a decision motivated by a desire to explore beyond the conventional financial frameworks taught in academia. Free to conduct his own unrestricted research, Ted began to pursue the truth behind the financial system, which quickly led to his recognition of sound money - gold and silver - as a necessary antidote to the chaos plaguing our monetary system today. The strength of Ted's conviction guided him towards David Morgan, who hired Ted as a writer for his monthly publication: The Morgan Report, and subsequently Ronnie Stöferle, who employed Ted as a writer for his and Mark J. Valek's annual publication: the In Gold We Trust Report. More recently, Ted co-founded the Sound Money Report with Ronnie Stöferle - a substack publication designed to complement the annual In Gold We Trust report, by offering a higher frequency of world-class insights into gold, silver, Bitcoin, and commodities. At the same time, Ted’s belief in the gold and silver investment cases extends to mining companies. To deliver on this, he works closely with Peter Krauth as Senior Analyst at Silver Advisor - a newsletter covering the world's leading silver mining companies for its esteemed subscribers.
