Leadership

Peter Mickelberg
Founder & Chief Investment Officer
Peter Mickelberg's distinguished career in gold markets began in 1980 as a young trader in Perth, Western Australia, during the historic bull market that saw gold reach unprecedented heights of $850 per ounce. This early experience, while initially challenging, forged the foundation of what would become four decades of unparalleled expertise in precious metals trading.
Following his formative years, Peter dedicated himself to mastering the complexities of gold markets, returning to active trading in 2006 with renewed focus and sophisticated strategies. His breakthrough came through a pivotal mentorship with the legendary James Sinclair, universally recognized as "Mr. Gold" and the foremost authority on precious metals markets worldwide.
Under Sinclair's tutelage, Peter traveled extensively to Tanzania, where he absorbed decades of market wisdom and developed the systematic trading methodologies that form the cornerstone of Aeternum Wealth's investment approach. This mentorship evolved into a profound professional and personal relationship, with Sinclair becoming godfather to Peter's son, William.
In 2013, Peter and Sinclair collaborated with the Singapore Precious Metals Exchange during its formative period, with Sinclair serving as Chairman and Peter as a board member. Their expertise was instrumental in establishing the exchange as a premier precious metals trading and storage facility.
"Our systematic approach to gold markets has delivered exceptional returns for over three decades. We combine disciplined risk management with sophisticated options strategies to generate consistent performance across all market conditions."
