The Fed Finally Surrenders; Inflation Wins - Ep 937
Dec 14, 2023
The speaker discusses the misrepresentation of the Dow's record high, advises against buying it, and suggests investing in foreign stocks, emerging markets, and gold. They argue that the Federal Reserve's recent declaration of victory in the fight against inflation is actually a surrender that will result in a weaker dollar and higher commodity prices. They critique Powell's understanding of economic growth and inflation, question the credibility of the Personal Consumption Expenditure Index, and criticize the Federal Reserve's handling of the economy. They discuss the potential impact of inflation on bonds, gold, and the economy, express their view that the Federal Reserve's decision to cut rates may be misguided, and emphasize the opportunity to invest in gold and silver. They also discuss investing in gold mining stocks and the benefits of a declining dollar for foreign markets.
