Everything About To Be RESET? | Michael Pento

debt monetizationFed policylost decade

Preview:Michael Pento argues that the U.S. is inside an unprecedented multi-asset bubble—equities, real estate, and credit—sustained by Federal Reserve monetization and that the next recession could force a far uglier reset in deficits, inflation, rates, and asset prices. His near-term stance is tactical rather than panic-driven: he is not fully in bunker mode yet, but says he is positioning carefully, favoring gold/miners and watching for warning signs in credit spreads, financial conditions, and Fed balance-sheet policy.

AI's $Trillions Bubble About To Burst! The Warning Signs Are Here | Alex Newman

Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) vs stablecoins

Preview:Alex Newman joins Liberty and Finance to argue the AI bubble is nearing collapse, driven not by market forces but by government/intelligence-community funding aimed at building a digital surveillance infrastructure. He ties AI, CBDCs/stablecoins, data centers, and the Iran-linked fertilizer crisis into a broader warning: elites are engineering a catastrophic economic crisis to force through tokenized digital currency and totalitarian control. He recommends grassroots opt-outs (cash, gold, state-level resistance) and homeschooling as countermeasures.

Preview:JT Starzki, Executive Chairman of Guardian Metal Resources (formerly Guardian Metals), presents a bullish thesis on tungsten driven by zero US domestic mine supply, a ban on Chinese/Russian tungsten for defense uses, and a depleted US strategic stockpile. The company has advanced its Pilot Mountain project through PFS (strong economics: $1.3B NPV, ~1-year payback at spot prices), listed on NYSE, and holds a second asset (Tempiute) with existing infrastructure and surface stockpiles that could provide near-term revenue. The DLA and Department of War are actively engaged, and Starzki argues the company is the nearest-term domestic tungsten solution.

"Prepare Yourself For The Ending" | Bill Holter

Mathematical inevitability of sovereign credit crisisDerivatives market as systemic risk (4-6x global assets)

Preview:Bill Holter, a former Wall Street branch manager and gold/silver bullion dealer, argues that the global financial system is mathematically insolvent and headed for an inevitable credit crisis centered on the US dollar. He frames the recent gold and silver pullback as an overdone gut check within a continuing bottoming process — not an exit. His core thesis: own physical gold and silver with no counterparty risk, hold stock certificates for commodity companies, and prepare for systemic breakdown because fiat currencies are derivatives of gold that have already collapsed 99.5% in real terms. He highlights the derivatives market as the "gorilla in the room," the Japanese yen carry trade unwinding as a potential trigger, and China's move to ban gold/silver rehypothecation as a signal that the paper market is losing credibility.

Be Prepared For Societal Collapse | Dr. Arthur T. Bradley

Transformer architecturejob displacement

Preview:Dr. Arthur T. Bradley argues that AI and the data-center buildout behind it are advancing too fast, with too little caution, and could create major social, economic, environmental, and psychological harm. He frames AI as a kind of arms race: useful for productivity and possibly medicine, but also a driver of job loss, misinformation, dependence, and a loss of human agency. The discussion then shifts to the physical costs of data centers — electricity, water, pollution, noise, land use, and e-waste — which he sees as increasingly severe and unevenly imposed on communities, especially in places like Virginia.

Preview:Hugh Agro, CEO of Revival Gold, joins from the Rule Symposium to make the case that gold developer stocks are trading at historically attractive valuations versus senior producers and the gold price itself. He argues the long-term gold bull case is intact — driven by continued Chinese central bank buying, de-dollarization, and a structural supply deficit from a decade-plus of underinvestment in exploration — despite a recent pullback from ~$4,000/oz. The bulk of the interview is a pitch for Revival Gold's two US-based development assets (Mercur in Utah, a 4.6M oz project in Idaho), emphasizing the team's track record, institutional backing, strong balance sheet, and management insider buying.

The Silver Story Just Changed... But Not How You Think | David Morgan

He discusses the multi-year timeline for copper substitution, the thrifting history in solar, and argues that industrial demand is only part of the silver story; monetary demand is the real price mover. He remains bullish long-term, sees silver exceeding its $120-121 January 2026 high, but candidly assigns a ~5% probability that the parabolic move and 50% decline already marked the cycle top — pointing to 1980 and 2011 analogs. He reveals he bought more silver the prior Friday.

He sees this as the earliest sign of a crack-up boom in fiat currencies, with the dollar's collapse accelerating. Japan's yen and JGB market are flagged as an immediate vulnerability, while resurgent socialism across the G7 deepens the fiscal crisis. His core advice: exit credit exposure and hold physical precious metals as the only money without counterparty risk.

"Dire" Situation For Oil From Strait of Hormuz Chaos | Rick Rule

Strait of Hormuzoil supply

Preview:Rick Rule says the Strait of Hormuz conflict is a real commodity shock with potentially major second-order effects, but the near-term market reaction has been distorted by dollar strength, liquidity needs, and a rush into the deepest, most liquid assets. He argues oil, gas, helium, fertilizers, aluminum, and mining inputs could face severe disruption over the next 3–6 months if there is no political solution, while reminding viewers that investors should raise liquidity, think probabilistically, and avoid overconcentration.

Silver Surge Signals Bigger Crisis Ahead | Phil Low

Preview:Phil Low argues that the recent weakness in gold and silver is not a refutation of the metals thesis but a symptom of a larger monetary breakdown. He says paper gold/silver markets, dollar credit creation, and the broader fiat system are all “monetary sins” that can suppress prices temporarily, but ultimately fail when the debt structure and confidence in dollars crack. In his view, the current crisis environment may first produce deflationary dollar demand, then a sharp move toward hyperinflation and physical-metal scarcity.

Is This the Final Shakeout Before Gold Explodes? | Andy Schectman

COMEX deliveries

Preview:Andy Schectman argues that the recent selloff in gold and silver is mainly structural and tactical rather than a sign the metals’ fundamentals have weakened. He says margin hikes, ETF rebalancing, paper-market leverage, and forced liquidation created the drop, while physical demand, COMEX deliveries, Chinese imports, and a drawdown in registered inventories point the other way. His broader view is that debt, war spending, inflation, and dedollarization are increasing the long-run case for precious metals, even if near-term price action remains volatile.

He ties the conflict to a broader Austrian-school critique: decades of interventionism and money creation have produced a K-shaped economy, liquidity stress, and fragility in private credit and private equity, while gold, silver, miners, and other real assets remain long-term beneficiaries of inflation and rising commodity prices.

Preview:Michael Pento says he has reduced risk and is moving more defensively because several liquidity gauges are flashing caution: the yen carry trade is under pressure, reverse repo liquidity is gone, bank reserves have fallen, and the real Fed funds rate remains positive. He thinks the recent selloff in Bitcoin, AI, and speculative metals may be the market’s way of signaling a broader liquidity problem, not just a normal correction.

Next Demand Surge: No Silver Available | Ed Steer

COMEX paper manipulation

Preview:Ed Steer argues that silver and gold prices are being artificially suppressed by a decades-old paper-market manipulation scheme run by bullion banks. Physical silver has been in a structural deficit for nearly six years, and London nearly ran out of available silver in October 2025. Steer believes the price suppression is unsustainable and expects silver to eventually reach triple digits ($300–$500/oz target), but timing is uncertain. He advises retail investors to accumulate physical metal now rather than trying to time entries, because when supply finally breaks, physical will become unavailable at any price.

Is The Credit Bubble Popping Now? | Alasdair Macleod

Credit bubbleMargin lending

Preview:Alasdair Macleod warns that a massive credit bubble — fueled by margin lending on stocks and crypto — is reaching a breaking point. He estimates up to $10 trillion in stock is held on margin, with falling prices likely triggering cascading forced selling. While gold could temporarily sell off in the panic, central bank buying and China's new gold-backed yuan infrastructure fundamentally change the setup from 2008. The ultimate outcome: the Fed will be forced to debase the dollar to rescue the system, destroying the currency.

Preview:Alex Newman argues the West is undergoing a deliberate "controlled demolition" driven by UN climate policy, elite global governance, and industrial offshoring—especially to China. He says climate policy is being used as a wealth-redistribution and sovereignty-eroding tool, while food, farming, education, and personal finance are also being pulled into centralized control. His practical advice is to localize food, education, community, and savings, and to build resilience outside major institutions.

Systemic financial crisis and credit freeze riskFederal Reserve and Treasury merger as lender of last resortRate suppression and currency devaluation mechanics

Preview:Gregory Mannarino delivers a stark warning: the US financial system is in a systemic crisis already underway, propped up by artificially suppressed rates, currency devaluation, and debt expansion. He predicts the endgame is a deliberate credit freeze — a lock-up where debit cards stop working and transactions halt — designed to break the population into accepting a privatized, corporate-backed stablecoin system (the GENIUS Act, signed July 2025). His preferred safe havens: physical silver first, then gold, with some Bitcoin exposure. The trigger to watch: uncontrolled spikes in the 10-year Treasury yield (20-50 basis points in a day).

Gold & Silver Watershed Moment? Here's Why The Bull Isn't Over | Michael Pento

Federal Reserve rate cuts, QT reversal, and QE restartUS fiscal deficits and national insolvency

Preview:Michael Pento, active money manager at Pento Portfolio Strategies, discusses the sharp October 21 selloff in precious metals (gold down ~7%, silver down ~8%). He argues nothing fundamental has changed: the Fed is cutting rates, ending QT, and already expanding its balance sheet; deficits remain at $1.8 trillion; and foreign central banks continue shifting reserves from Treasuries into gold. Pento calls the selloff a healthy, necessary pullback in an ongoing secular bull market. He warns that the US is an insolvent nation heading toward intractable stagflation and a bond market crisis, which would be the signal to exit risk assets entirely. He critiques the traditional 60/40 portfolio as obsolete given that stocks, bonds, credit, and housing are all in simultaneous bubbles at historically extreme valuations.

He contends we never actually left a gold standard; the banking system merely prints notes against gold it doesn't have, which is why prices moved smoothly in 1971 rather than repricing violently. He frames the current system as a literal Ponzi scheme nearing its endgame, with extreme Fed volatility between cutting and hiking as the tell.

He explains that Russia cannot use nuclear weapons because its conventional army is too weak to occupy the West afterward — a core requirement of nuclear doctrine. The real trigger for World War III, he contends, will be a Chinese invasion of Taiwan (possibly by 2027), which would bring both China and Russia into a coordinated nuclear first strike against US/NATO military targets. The interview also covers practical preparedness: safe rooms, avoiding nuclear target zones, and relocating away from high-density population centers to survive the social unrest following a grid-down EMP scenario.

Preview:Gregory Mannarino joins Liberty and Finance to argue the US is in the terminal stage of a debt collapse: the Treasury is now using Fed funding to buy back its own debt because there are no real buyers. He warns a privatized stablecoin/tokenized monetary system was recently signed into law by Trump — a "bait and switch" he considers worse than a CBDC — and that it will tokenize people themselves as tradable assets. He advises community-building, local shopping, hard assets (gold/silver), and speaking out.

Preview:Phil Low, founder of The Bitter Draft, explains the ~$1 quadrillion OTC derivatives market as a system of degenerate side bets between banks that exists purely to generate debt assets, arguing it's unlikely to be the catalyst for financial collapse — that will come from below (Treasury debt, M2, money supply). He then presents an optimistic post-endgame case: credit chains will collapse, giant firms (Walmart, Monsanto, BlackRock) will vanish, and a decentralized gold/silver-based economy with smaller firms, local production, and 99% government reduction will emerge, comparable to 1890s America.

"They're Going To Destroy The Dollar" | Andy Schectman

Intentional dollar destruction thesisStablecoin legislation and Treasury demand

Preview:Andy Schectman (CEO of Miles Franklin) delivers his thesis that the US will intentionally destroy the dollar to manage unserviceable debt. He outlines a multi-part mechanism: stablecoin legislation creates synthetic demand for short-end Treasuries, while gold is allowed to run to extreme levels and then pegged to long-end bonds for near-zero borrowing costs. He covers the operational Shanghai Gold Exchange linkage with Saudi Arabia and Hong Kong, BRICS Pay/BRICS Bridge expansion, extreme stress in London platinum and silver markets, and argues that saving in dollars is "the dumbest thing you can possibly do." Precious metals — gold, silver, platinum — are the recommended alternative.

DoD Awards $6.2M For Critical Tungsten Production | Oliver Friesen

Tungsten market and supply chainUS Department of Defense critical minerals fundingChina export ban on strategic metals

Preview:Oliver Friesen, CEO of Guardian Metal Resources (OTCQX: GMTF), discusses the company's receipt of a $6.2M Department of Defense award — the first-ever DoD funding for domestic tungsten production. The US has zero active tungsten mines and China controls 80%+ of global supply, recently imposing a full export ban. Guardian owns the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit in the US and a former producing mine, with existing processing capacity available through Global Tungsten and Powders in Pennsylvania. The company raised an additional $21M concurrently, giving it ~$30M to advance toward commercial production. Friesen frames tungsten as following the antimony price pattern: antimony rose 5-6x after China's export ban; tungsten is up ~50% so far and he sees it as "early innings."

Since starting production in March 2025, they've ramped from 500 to ~2,500 oz/month, targeting 3,000-4,000 oz/month by year-end and a 60,000 oz/year run rate in 2026. The bulk sample confirmed the geological model; Williams says no major de-risking questions remain. He sees a favorable setup: gold at record highs, few junior producers, and money returning to the sector — but this time flowing only to companies with actual production and cash flow. He expects a re-rating from ~0.5x to ~1.0x P/NAV as commercial production is achieved.

He outlines two parallel value drivers: advancing Los Ricos South toward imminent construction (awaiting final permits, 24-month build) which should re-rate the NAV multiple toward 1x, and ongoing exploration drilling targeting a historically displaced orebody that could expand the resource base.

Barnholden outlines a goal to quadruple gold revenue within 18 months by doubling grade and doubling recoveries. The company has improved its balance sheet from near-zero cash to $25M and reduced debt from $18.2M to under $8M, using the swing to fund exploration. He emphasizes the company's "Mexican-first" operational model and alignment with shareholders, having personally invested nearly $2M.

Here's Why Silver Could Triple | Shawn Khunkhun

Preview:Dolly Varden Silver CEO Shawn Khunkhun argues that precious metals have entered a new secular bull market and that silver equities — particularly high-grade, safe-jurisdiction juniors — are in the early innings. He walks through Dolly Varden's recent NYSE American listing, a 6-12x land expansion acquiring three past-producing mines for only 2% dilution, a $55M treasury post-financing, and a 35,000m drill program aimed at derisking and growing their ~150M oz AgEq resource. Khunkhun highlights the 90:1 silver-to-gold ratio as deeply out of line with the 28:1 level reached in 2011, suggesting silver could triple without gold moving. The bull-market playbook, he says, favors high-cost/low-grade producers in late stages, but his conservative approach targets a high-grade, tier-one jurisdiction deposit resilient across price environments.

The conversation pivots to a broader thesis: fiat currency debasement causes societal/family breakdown, and a return to sound money — even through crisis — offers a path to renewal. Farber frames the coming crack-up boom as destructive but ultimately redemptive for those who prepared.

Gold Is Replacing The US Dollar | Michael Pento

Fed policy and the end of the Fed putTariff-driven recession and supply chain disruption

Preview:Michael Pento delivers a deeply bearish macro thesis: the US is entering a tariff-induced recession that the Fed cannot rescue because inflation is too high and the government is insolvent. He argues the S&P 500 at 5,500+ is pricing fantasy earnings growth of 9% while GDP is contracting, supply chains are seizing, and layoffs are spreading. Real estate inventory is spiking 30% nationally with record price cuts as the COVID migration wave unwinds against 7% mortgage rates. His most structural claim: gold is supplanting the dollar as the world's reserve currency because foreign holders (China, Japan) are fleeing Treasuries amid trade-war disruption and sanctions risk, and the Fed is boxed in — it cannot QE without causing intractable inflation and spiking long-term yields.

Preview:Alasdair Macleod argues that gold's record highs are really about the dollar's record lows, driven by a structural foreign exodus from USD assets. He contends Trump's tariff tantrum has destroyed US credibility, that the administration has lost control (with the "deep state" reasserting itself via Bessant), and that the US is entering a debt-trap recession with rising bond yields — a lethal combination that will pop history's largest credit bubble. He sees gold dips being bought aggressively by central banks and sovereign wealth funds, and warns bond yields could rise above 10%.

He contends the real problem is fake money since 1913, not trade policy. Tariffs disrupt the mechanism by which the US exports inflation: dollars sent abroad that never return. Low predicts the dollar's collapse will force a return to gold/silver and honest money, restoring organic economic life.

COMEX Gold Drying Up, What's Next? | Matthew Piepenburg

Preview:Matthew Piepenburg (Von Greyerz) argues that the COMEX is running out of physical gold and silver because counterparties are increasingly demanding delivery — ending decades of "extend and pretend" paper leverage. He frames this as a symptom of a deeper systemic shift: the East has been quietly accumulating physical gold as the West debases its currency through debt. The dollar's weaponization post-2022 accelerated de-dollarization. Piepenburg's core message: own physical gold and silver not to get rich, but to avoid getting poorer, because governments and central banks cannot be trusted to preserve purchasing power.

They Debased USD Reserve & Killed Our Industries | Jeffrey Tucker

US trade deficits and the loss of the international clearing mechanism

Preview:Jeffrey Tucker argues that persistent US trade deficits are a symptom of a broken international monetary system. Since the end of the gold standard, the dollar has been overvalued and settlements never clear, creating a structural disadvantage that has hollowed out US manufacturing — from watches and pianos to cars and electronics. The dollar's reserve-currency status creates infinite foreign demand for US debt, which foreign central banks then use as collateral to build their own manufacturing at America's expense. Tucker rejects tariffs as the solution (they tax Americans, not foreigners) and instead advocates stopping debt creation and deregulating/tax-cutting to lower domestic production costs. He sees a return to a gold-based clearing system as the long-run fix but admits he doesn't know how to get there.

He speculates about a possible US-led revaluation of gold (citing a $12,200+/oz revaluation math at 40% money supply backing) and explores the implications for ETFs like GLD vs. physical ownership. Silver premiums on junk silver are at multi-year lows, and he recommends that swap trade.

He highlights gold's confirmed breakout against the S&P 500 and a 60/40 portfolio indicator as evidence that capital is rotating from conventional assets into precious metals. He argues silver's 45-year base breakout above $50 would be "the biggest breakout of all time," with targets of $100+ silver and $7,000-$8,000+ gold in the current cyclical bull. He draws historical parallels to the 1960s-70s, when both stocks and bonds were in secular bears, and frames the setup as capable of lasting toward 2040.

Preview:Dr. Judy Shelton argues that the Federal Reserve's 2% inflation target is a deliberate policy of currency debasement that transfers wealth from wage-earners to asset-owners, widening inequality. She traces the origin of the 2% target to a 1996 FOMC discussion where Janet Yellen advocated for positive inflation to deceive workers via "money illusion." Shelton proposes a gold-backed Treasury bond as a barometer of dollar purchasing power and advocates auditing the Fed, particularly its interest-on-reserves program that has paid banks over half a trillion dollars since 2022 to park cash rather than lend. She frames honest money as both a constitutional requirement and a moral imperative.
