This week, Dan Ferris speaks with Herb Greenberg. A renowned investigative financial journalist and now the senior editor for Empire Financial Research, Herb has had a storied, 40-plus-year career in the financial markets. Herb discusses plans to launch a brand-new, long-only research service. He shares his process for empowering and educating the everyday investor, as well as what goes into researching the best companies for his readers. And in his answer to Dan's traditional Final Question, he describes one of the biggest changes he has made in his own life – a change that he urges all listeners to make as well: eliminate toxicity...

In this week's episode of Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan dives right into discussing the biggest current crisis that has upended the global markets: the Russia-Ukraine war. And Dan's guest today is none other than Stansberry Research's international editor, Kim Iskyan. There's no one better suited for the topic at hand than him. The two chat about everything from how Venezuela and Iran could benefit from Russia's isolation... to how China might even have "the chance to become the geopolitical soft power it wants to be"... and to how it all might play out for "the ultimate dictator," Russian President Vladimir Putin. Kim also shares two unique and pertinent investment ideas for these turbulent times

This week on Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan brings back Cullen Roche, one of his "favorite people to talk to," for a third interview. As the Fed readies to "tap the brakes" on its quantitative-easing programs, an unimaginably wide range of potential outcomes exists for the markets. However, one thing is certain: Years of volatility loom ahead. So for investors looking to build their own "all-weather" portfolios, Cullen shares some portfolio-designing tips – many of which are near and dear to Dan's heart.

In this week's episode of Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan speaks with Rob Arnott. When Rob talks, we listen. And right now, he's saying that the market cycle is turning from one predominated by growth to one predominated by value. That presents an exceptional opportunity for the patient contrarian value investor. Rob discusses his two "core investment principles" and his forecast for out-of-control inflation (including a few "inflation fighter" places to consider putting your money today). He also covers a proprietary definition of the term "bubble," what's going on with electric vehicles, the "best way to read the news," and much more.

Today, Dan talks with Peter Boockvar, the chief investment officer of $8 billion wealth-management firm Bleakley Financial Group. As a top-down investor, Peter focuses on "bombed-out, value-type situations" that can be distilled into overarching investing themes. One of the big themes Peter sees right now is a global, unstoppable force of people wanting to break out of their pandemic bubbles and travel. That doesn't mean he's long airlines. In fact, he cautions against such proven, cyclical money pits... instead preferring alternative plays on the travel industry, like hotels, casinos, or online travel agencies. 

This week, Dan Ferris talks with veteran journalist and Stansberry Research Media Anchor Daniela Cambone Daniela has covered the financial markets for more than a decade. In that time, she has interviewed such high-profile figures as Congressman Newt Gingrich, Economic Advisor Stephen Moore, and investors like Mark Cuban, Jim Rogers, and Steve Forbes. And as she discusses on the show, her work has given her a truly unique perspective into the distinct, recurring themes that leading financial minds are seeing right now in inflation, hard assets, the stock market... At the current rate of 7%, inflation hasn't been this high since 1982. And Daniela suspects that, in actuality, inflation is "running way higher" than the U.S. Federal Reserve wants to admit. "I don't buy the 7% narrative at all," she says. "At one point, the Fed is going to have to act more aggressively [than they currently are if] they don't want the beast to get out of hand." In this kind of uncertain environment, Daniela encourages everyone to educate themselves and take control of their own financial freedom by holding assets unloved by the mainstream media... by focusing on long-term investing, gold-mining stocks, or crypto... and most importantly, by educating themselves. "We are in unprecedented times," she ends by saying. "Now, more than ever, you have to educate yourself. Don't count on the banking system or on whatever your neighbor's doing. Do it for yourself. Do it for your family. Do it for your legacy."

This week, Dan Ferris welcomes back to the show stock-picking expert Matt McCall. Matt has two decades of experience in finance and has made some incredible thousand-percent gains in his career. And because Matt believes in buying and holding for the long haul, this month's stomach-churning stock volatility didn't faze him... Matt says too often folks "hit the sell button too quickly... and panic selling doesn’t work in the long run." He reminds listeners that market corrections are natural and inevitable, and smart investors should use these pullbacks as opportunities to buy. Matt still believes in his Roaring 2020s thesis – that the coming decade will be the best years for investing that we've seen yet – but recessions and drawdowns are absolutely a part of it. Dan and Matt talk technology, one of Matt's cornerstone investing themes. He's still bullish on electric vehicles and Tesla, a company he calls a leader in the industry and sites the current downtrend in these stocks as a great time to get in. They also discuss 3D printing, something Matt is really excited about, and he says that "by the end of the decade, it could be a trillion-dollar industry." Almost every sector can utilize 3D printing – housing, automobiles, medicine, aerospace ­– and it's an area most investing folks aren’t even looking at yet. Matt joined Stansberry Research last year, and his subscribers have already achieved impressive gains. And he believes this 3D printing trend is a massive opportunity brewing beneath the surface right now, one that can help investors make a small fortune... projecting 1,000% long-term potential.

The current tensions between Russia and Ukraine have been all over the news… perhaps even contributing to this week's big market sell-off. But Dan Ferris' guest this week on Stansberry Investor Hour has some reassuring words for any concerned listeners: You can relax.  Dan sits down with one of his favorite guests -- geopolitical expert Marko Papic, who is the Partner and Chief Strategist at an alternative investment asset management firm. Marko is Dan's "No. 1 macro guy" and specializes in geopolitics, macroeconomics, and markets. And Marko says it's life as usual right now for folks in Ukraine, and the media noise surrounding the possibility of war is just over-done news hype…  Marko clarifies that if a war does happen, yes of course there would be global and market implications. But for right now, it’s just a local regional issue being sensationalized by the media. They also discuss inflation, which Marko says will continue to be an issue. He reminds everyone "This isn't the 1970s…" and that regular folks today "don’t have the stomach for a real recession" needed to fight inflation.    Dan plays a bit of devil's advocate with him about commodities and emerging markets investing, which Marko says is his No. 1 capital allocation idea right now. Despite this being a contrarian idea, he tells Dan that "commodity-linked plays should pay off in 2022." They touch on COVID's continuing effect on the markets, as well as value-growth trades. Plus, don’t miss Dan's opening rant about this week's "flash crash."   

This week on Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan Ferris sits down with Egon von Greyerz, Founder and Managing Partner of Matterhorn Asset Management AG. Egon, whose company specializes in wealth preservation, has been a gold bug for decades. He and Dan talk about how gold is the No. 1 hedge against inflation and market chaos. Egon says “gold is the best instrument you could ever buy to ensure your wealth.” And holding gold will protect you from the coming consequences of our current massive market bubble... created and fueled by the Federal Reserve’s unlimited money printing and our highest inflation rate in decades. Unfortunately, Egon predicts that the impending “wealth destruction will be massive.” And the folks who think the Fed is going to swoop in and save the system again this next crash are wrong... Egon says that there are “tough times ahead,” but this makes wealth preservation, which includes holding gold, even more crucial.  Dan and Egon also discuss bitcoin, as many have asked if gold will be replaced by the popular cryptocurrency. Egon is confident that will never happen, and makes the bold prediction that “bitcoin won’t still be around in 50 years.” He goes on to say that bitcoin “will always be a fringe investment”... and that “it’s not real money.” Lastly, Dan asks every guest the same last question: “If you can leave our listeners with only one last thought, what would it be?” And Egon’s answer won’t disappoint... Dan says his response is one of the best he’s ever heard. Listen to this episode for even more fascinating conversations about gold and our economy, plus check out Dan’s rant on exactly who’s in charge of the stock market…

This week on the show Dan sits down with Mike McGlone, Senior Commodity Strategist for Bloomberg Intelligence. Mike has more than 25 years experience in futures and commodities trading beginning at the Chicago Board of Trade. Mike claims "the game is over"… The Federal Reserve will continue to tighten until the stock market goes down. We're long overdue for a correction, and this country's inflation is at its highest rate in 40 years. The Fed will take away the punch bowl, and guess what will come out ahead as a result? Cryptos... Dan and Mike dive into bitcoin, which Mike says is the "least risky" crypto out there. He explains that bitcoin is still in its price-discovery stage, steadily gaining adoption in a world that’s going digital. Bitcoin is currently our benchmark digital currency – well on its way to becoming the global digital collateral.
