How High Will The Gold Price Rise? | Mike Maloney
How High Will The Gold Price Rise?
[Original recording date: 5.31.21] Money expert Mike Maloney explains how rampant expansion of the currency supply by the Federal Reserve and other world central banks is setting up the price of gold -- simply mathematically -- to explode higher than most realize is possible.
More and more highly-respected investors, many of them billionaires -- like Warren Buffett, Paul Singer, Sam Zell and Ray Dalio -- have increased their exposure to gold over the past 12 months.
They’ve done this for many reasons, with rising inflation topping the list.
So for those betting on a bright future for gold, how high can the price go? See the YouTube Video for the charts and graphics: https://youtu.be/_qfgTf09f5I

Market Meltdown Ahead? | Lance Roberts: Minsky Moment Will Spike Volatility and Crash Stocks (PT1)
Market Meltdown Ahead? Will a Minsky moment lead to market crash in the near future? Financial expert Lance Roberts decodes the implications of what Jerome Powell said at the latest Federal Reserve press conference, why inflation will and will not be transitory, and why volatility in financial assets like stocks and bonds will be substantially higher from here.
It’s looking increasingly clear folks: The economy has taken on too much debt. Interest rates can’t rise substantially without threatening to crash the entire system.
But instead of exercising concern, Wall Street is partying hard with today’s cheap liquidity in a speculative orgy.
Unless the situation changes dramatically, Lance Roberts foresees an approaching meltdown moment for the markets that will shatter the complacency of today’s investors.
The interview then continues in Part 2, where Lance explains why he’s so confident that caution the bond market is signaling will trump the current exuberance of the stock market.
He also shares how he’s currently positioning his portfolio to still be able to invest in today’s markets while protecting against downside risk.

The US Dollar Turns 50, But Does It Only Have A Few Years Left? | Adam Taggart On Debt and Currency
The US dollar has been around for a long time. But will it last much longer?
You see, while the US dollar has been in existence for over 200 years, the current fiat version -- which is not backed by any hard collateral like the gold and silver it once was prior to 1971 -- is only now just turning 50 years old.
And in the five decades since the US dollar made its debut, our current fiat dollar has lost 85% of its purchasing power.
That's been the result of rampant inflation caused by the Federal Reserve and the US government's reckless policies, huge debt build-up and massive deficit spending.
At our current rate, how much longer until folks start rejecting the US dollar for alternatives that hold their purchasing power better? See the YouTube Video for the charts and graphics: https://youtu.be/mTCvcarydhM

First Disinflation, Then Deflation, Then Big-Time Inflation | Michael Pento (PT2)

In this Part 2 of our interview with investment manager Michael Pento, Michael shares his favored asset classes for each stage of the upcoming progression he sees:

2. outright deflation, and then
3. a hugely inflationary response from our central planners

A Market Implosion In 2022 Is Inevitable | Michael Pento (PT1)
Is a market implosion inevitable in 2022? Will inflation or deflation or disinflation take over? Financial expert Michael Pento talks to us about the Fed, limitations on future stimulus, and the next painful market correction.
Suddenly investors are panicked that inflation is taking over.
But what if they’re mistaken?
Well, that could be a costly mistake if they're betting their portfolio’s future on it.
Because there’s a strong case to be made that we’re now actually entering a period of dis-inflation, one that has a high risk of tipping into outright deflation by next year.
To argue this, Mento Pento, an expert who clearly pulls no punches, joins us for this video. In this interview, Michael explains why the Fed and Congress don’t have the air cover to continue the same magnitude of stimulus the market is now addicted to -- and thus won’t be able to resume it until after the next painful market correction arrives.

Is The Fed Losing Control? Is An Inflation Crisis Underway? | Axel Merk (PT1)
Suddenly, higher prices are everywhere: in food, fuel, housing -- you name it.
In fact, the annual Consumer Price Inflation rate (CPI) just spiked to 5.4%, a high not seen since 2008.
A growing number of economic observers see these higher prices as the predictable result of the many trillions of new dollars in monetary and fiscal stimulus that world central banks and governments have been issuing in response to last year’s COVID outbreak.
We now seem to be at an awkward point where this ongoing stimulus is no longer boosting economic growth much.
But it IS still driving prices higher -- rising the cost of living and exacerbating the wealth gap between the very rich and everyone else.
Are the central planners losing their control of the system?
Fed-watcher and currency expert Axel Merk weighs in on the current situation, the outcome of which will impact our future more than most realize.
