But as investment bubbles grow, global power shifts accelerate, and geopolitical tensions rise, the world may be heading toward a far more unstable decade than markets currently price in. In this wide-ranging conversation with James Connor, trend forecaster Gerald Celente ( @trendsjournal  ) lays out the key forces shaping 2026 and beyond: an AI bubble fueled by debt, a looming commercial real estate and banking bust, and the decline of the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency. Celente argues that China — not the U.S. — is positioned to dominate AI as American capital flows increasingly favor war spending over productive growth. He also explains why gold and silver are responding to deeper structural stress, not hype, and why rising geopolitical friction — from BRICS expansion to deteriorating global trust in U.S. leadership — increases the risk that today’s conflicts could escalate into something far larger.
