Summer is here—which means the kids are home from school all day. I hope you all have some fun plans to look forward to. Unfortunately, it won’t be a good summer for stocks. In fact, I expect a lot of pain over the next 18 months. Guys, this might be the most important podcast you listen to all year. I break down how a few large stocks are propping up the entire market… why we could see a big selloff following the debt ceiling deal… and a major factor that’s about to crush consumer spending. We’ve dealt with debt ceiling issues before… but this time is different—and for the first time, investors should be worried. There are only two options to deal with our current national debt levels—and I explain why neither is really feasible. I also share some staggering data about the U.S. national debt… and why consumer debt will wreak havoc on the economy over the next year. Next, I explain why the market is making a big mistake by trusting in the Fed… why the Fed’s bailouts in 2008 cursed us… and why they’re not an option this time around. The bottom line: The economy and the stock market are both in serious trouble. But there are still ways for investors to make solid returns. I highlight the two assets you should have exposure to right now… and an investment strategy designed to profit from the coming turbulence. To help you survive this dangerous market, I’m working out the details of a limited-time discount on three of our advisories: Crypto Intelligence, Curzio Venture Opportunities, and Moneyflow Trader. I end the show with some hints about what’s coming your way… and the tremendous opportunities these newsletters offer right now. By the way, if you haven’t yet, be sure to listen to last week’s special interview with Luke Norman, chairman of U.S. Gold (USAU), to get the inside scoop on why gold is poised to enter a new bull market.
