MacroVoices #271 Harley Bassman: Hedging a High Interest Future
MacroVoices Erik Townsend and Patrick Ceresna welcome Harley Bassman to the show.

They talk about the risk he sees, why he thinks it's so important to hedge against it, and discuss the ETF he just launched to make runaway interest rate insurance available to anyone who wants it.

MacroVoices #268 Art Berman: Crude Oil Update
MacroVoices Erik Townsend and Patrick Ceresna welcome Art Berman to the show. Art nailed the call for $65 crude oil when we had him on in early January, but now he says the big move higher in price is probably mostly over, and he doesn’t see any reason to expect crude oil prices to rally much higher than $70. And that’s despite the fact that Art still predicts a significant decline in U.S. production later this year. They discuss this and so much more.
