Commodity-Backed Currencies To Challenge Dollar Yen and Euro? Apr 27, 2022

Show notes

The war in Ukraine may be a more destabilizing event than many realize. According to GoldMoney’s head of Research Alasdair Macleod, it may be accelerating the evolution of a new monetary system comprised of commodity-backed currencies. Alasdair predicts such a regime will favor countries like Russia and China, and threaten to fully expose the worsening problem of purchasing power devaluation that afflicts the current major world fiat currencies – like the dollar, yen and Euro.

Doomberg: Europe Can't Wake Up From Its Energy Nightmare Apr 26, 2022

Show notes

Energy analyst Doomberg returns to the program to explain just how cornered Europe is in terms of energy. Currently, it is dependent on Russia for natural gas that can't be sufficiently replaced by alternate means for at least several years. Europe will be forced to continue to remain vulnerable to its Russian supplier for the foreseeable future. Poor policy has led to this decision. Will Europe be able to chart a wiser course from here? It's unclear at this point, as several of the most promising options are still being ignored/decommissioned. See the YouTube Video for the charts and graphics: https://youtu.be/u32uuhX4Vno

David Hunter: Markets To Fall 80% This Year As Worst Financial Crisis Of Our Lifetimes Hit Apr 22, 2022

Show notes

Contrarian macro analyst David Hunter returns here in Part 2 of our interview discussing his bold prediction that the SP500 will meltup over the next 3-6 months, to be following by an epic market crash of 80% David sees very little safe harbor during the crash. Long-dated US Treasury bonds will likely perform best. Cash is a safe choice, as well. Gold will likely fall, though not as badly as stocks and corporate debt, David thinks.

David Hunter: 40% Market Meltup Over Next 6 Months, Then 80% Crash Apr 21, 2022

Show notes

Few experts I interview generate as much controversy as today’s guest. He is a contrarian by nature, and so is most comfortable when his forecasts differ extremely from the consensus view. And despite today’s grim macro outlook of spiking inflation, rising cost of debt, a struggling consumer, inverted yield curves predicting recession – he is doubling down on his forecast that the SP500 will leap higher by 40-50% over the coming 3-6 months.

The Consumer Is Starting To Fail, Increasing Recession Risk Apr 19, 2022

Show notes

Consumer spending powers the economy, making up 68% of GDP here in the US. And, like it or not, much of that consumer spending is funded by debt -- credit cards, mortgages, auto loans, etc. But rising interest rates are now starting to make the cost of that debt more expensive. That trend, combined with increases in the cost of living caused by today's spiking inflation, is pinching folks' ability to borrow and spend.

Weekly Market Recap: How Many Rate Hikes Until The Market Breaks? Will The Fed Then Have To Pivot? Apr 16, 2022

Show notes

This week Lance and Adam discuss whether the Fed has much runway or not to hike interest rates much further. Lance is of the mindset that it doesn't have much room -- that something important in the financial system will start to buckle once the Fed funds rate gets near 1% (it's currently at 0.25%). When that happens, Lance sees the Fed reversing course and returning back to Quantitative Easing in attempt to rescue things. Lance and Adam also enjoy a rant near the end of the discussion about Elon Musk's recent attempted purchase of Twitter and how it's revealing a lot of hypocrisy in how media and Wall Street operate in order to protect their current privilege.
