Anthony Fauci's repeated Fifth Amendment response opens a deeper question: was 2020 only a public-health emergency, or did a frozen economy become the shock absorber for one of the largest liquidity events in modern U.S. history? We follow the bond-market warning, collapsing money velocity, and the threat of a third big print to uncover what they could mean for inflation, capital flows, and Bitcoin. If the next crisis has no shock absorber, where can your savings still hide?SPONSORS
The Federal Reserve is changing how it communicates with markets, and the ripple effects are being felt across bonds, currencies, housing, and equities. We break down Kevin Warsh's shift away from forward guidance, why long-term Treasury yields continue to climb, and what it could mean for interest rates going forward. We also discuss New York's proposed second-home tax and government-backed grocery stores, the escalating conflict between the US and Iran, Korea's margin-call meltdown, growing weakness in the bond market, pressure on the Canadian dollar, and why the energy sector may present one of today's most compelling investment opportunities.Start an investment portfolio that's built to perform with Neighbourhood Holdings!

The Fed talked tough and did nothing. The 30-year hit a 20-year high. The Dow fell 1,100 points. Gold was the only thing left standing.Tonight's episode is sponsored by Rockwell Automation.

Rates may vary.The Federal Reserve left rates unchanged at 3.5% to 3.75%, exactly where they were before Kevin Warsh took over, despite a 30% market-priced chance of a hike and three FOMC members dissenting in favor of one. Peter Schiff breaks down a press conference where Warsh declared "no tolerance" for inflation above 2% while doing nothing about it, hiding behind the excuse that the Fed "doesn't have a magic wand." Nobody asked for magic, just for the Fed to use the tools it actually has: higher rates, a smaller balance sheet, slower money supply growth. Warsh delivered none of them, and Schiff argues he made the same choice as his predecessors. Inflation is a choice, and the Fed chose it again.The markets rendered their verdict immediately. The 30-year Treasury yield hit 5.22%, its highest in roughly 20 years, the Dow fell 2.2% or about 1,100 points to close on the lows, and the Nasdaq 100 is now down over 3% on the week as the air keeps coming out of the AI bubble, with Meta down 10% after missing earnings and SanDisk off 30% in three days. Gold told the real story: it closed up $40 at 4,070 and never broke 4,000, because rising yields driven by a loss of confidence in the Fed are bullish for gold, not bearish. Schiff calls gold the last safe haven standing. He also covers consumer confidence at a five-year low, a $101.5 billion June trade deficit proving the tariffs accomplished nothing, and why Mamdani's government-run grocery stores will empty shelves, bankrupt private grocers in the poorest neighborhoods, and recreate Soviet bread lines in New York City.Chapters:00:00 Debt Bubble Reality00:37 Fed Holds Rates Steady03:34 Two Percent Target Doubts16:05 Q&A Exposes Inaction27:38 Markets React Bonds Stocks Gold31:45 Yields and Gold Misread35:02 Gold Safe Haven Case37:40 Fed Fallout and Data43:12 NYC Government Grocers55:42 Capitalism and Wrap UpFollow @peterschiffX: https://twitter.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiffOur Sponsors:* Check out Chilipad and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://sleep.me* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/gold for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Andy Burnham once said Britain had to “get beyond being in hock to the bond market”.

The Big Tech companies driving the AI boom are expected to spend more than $700 billion on data center infrastructure this year. To finance this spending spree, they're increasingly looking to debt. Hyperscalers like Alphabet, Oracle, and Meta have been issuing corporate bonds at a scale the industry has never seen — nearly a quarter of a trillion dollars this year so far. The bond market could be considered a less risky way than stocks for investors to get a piece of the AI hype. To explain what the flood of AI debt means for the bond market, we're joined by Julie Ask, an independent industry analyst at Ask Advisory. More on this: “The Quarter-Trillion-Dollar Onslaught of AI Bonds Is Testing Investors' Limits” from the Wall Street Journal “AI has taken over the stock market.

Burnham's debut, bond market jitters and the future of AI in BioPharma Markets were relatively quiet yesterday, but developments in the UK drew investor attention. Prime Minister Andy Burnham's policy announcements sparked concerns over the fiscal outlook, sending gilt yields higher, while John Healey's appointment as Chancellor raised fresh questions about economic policy. Meanwhile, semiconductor stocks rebounded, and oil prices swung sharply. Damien Ng from our Next Generation Research team joins us to discuss why AI's impact on BioPharma is likely to unfold over the coming years, rather than quarters.(00:00) - Introduction: Helen Freer, Product & Investment Content (00:34) - Markets wrap-up: Roman Canziani, Head of Product & Investment Content (07:08) - Genomics: Damien Ng, Next Generation Research (13:21) - Closing remarks: Helen Freer, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Contrary to the traditional flight-to-safety playbook, bond yields are rising alongside oil prices as war-driven inflation fears overwhelm demand for U.S. Treasuries as a haven asset.

In 1914 the Fed ran on 40 people and no computers. Today it takes 23,000. Fire them all and let AI do it... it can't do any worse.Tonight's episode is sponsored by Rockwell Automation.

June CPI came in at -0.4% versus the expected -0.1%, dropping year-over-year inflation to 3.5% — but the entire decline came from a temporary oil price drop that is already reversing as the Iran war reignites and oil climbs back 20% in July. Bond yields tell the real story: the 30-year is back near 5.1% and the 10-year near 4.6%, erasing nearly the entire post-CPI rally.Schiff's biggest revelation from the hearing: the Fed employs 23,000 people to do a job that required just 40 when it opened in 1914 — with no computers — and argues the entire institution could be replaced by a single AI or abolished outright. He dismantles Warsh's claim of "regime change" at the Fed as being as fake as regime change in Iran, exposes the redefinition of "price stability" to mean prices that rise just slowly enough that people stop complaining, and shows how the 2% target was always a lie invented to justify inflation. He covers Warsh admitting inflation is a tax while planning to keep levying it, the court throwing out Trump's self-negotiated IRS settlement that granted his family immunity, and the AI CapEx bubble turning tech's biggest cash generators into massive borrowers that will break the bond market.Chapters:00:00 AI Spending Arms Race01:08 Markets Brace for CPI06:07 CPI Surprise and Gold Whipsaw07:34 Oil Driven Inflation Mirage11:40 What Inflation Really Means14:11 Congress and Fed Share Blame17:58 Fed Headcount Shock22:32 Two Percent Target Myth27:05 Regime Change and Price Stability33:40 Day One Recap Continues34:09 Grow My X Account35:13 Congress Inflation Theater36:06 Trump Grift Claims37:30 IRS Settlement Outrage39:51 Rates Versus Balance Sheet41:08 Who Wins Low Rates43:46 Fed And Black Workers49:09 AI Bubble Warning51:15 Hyperscalers Debt Spiral55:38 Bond Market Breaking Point58:16 Strategy Stock Dilution01:00:30 Bitcoin Levels And Regrets01:01:30 Subscribe And Sign OffFollow @peterschiffX: https://twitter.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiff#PeterSchiffShow #FederalReserve #AIBubbleOur Sponsors:* Check out Chilipad and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://sleep.me* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/gold for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bond yields climbed back to cycle highs with the 10-year at 4.56% and the 30-year at 5.06%, and Peter Schiff sees a major breakdown ahead that will hit stocks, housing, and crypto simultaneously.The 21st Century Road to Housing Bill became law without Trump's signature, and Schiff argues it will make housing worse, not better. Nine decades of government housing policy — every program sold as making homes more affordable — have produced the least affordable housing in American history, because subsidizing demand raises prices and the money ends up in sellers' pockets. Trump has openly said he wants home prices to rise, in the middle of an affordability crisis. Meanwhile SpaceX fell 36% from its highs in under two weeks with every open-market buyer underwater and lockup expirations still ahead. Every Wall Street firm covering Bitcoin is bullish — Citi at $82K, Standard Chartered at $100K, Bernstein at $150K, JP Morgan at $170K — yet not one is buying Stretch at $87.48, where a 13.7% yield proves the market doesn't believe Bitcoin can appreciate 12% a year. They don't believe their own forecasts.Chapters:00:00 Markets Defy Bad News01:38 War Tensions and Metals05:11 Bond Yields Warning Signs06:57 AI Bubble and IPO Mania11:42 Bitcoin Hype and Wall Street17:07 Dollar Flat Oil Rising18:09 Housing Bill Political Fight19:54 Affordability Crisis Explained24:16 How Subsidies Inflate Prices32:03 Bubble Collateral Trap32:58 Jobs Report Media Spin34:40 Housing Supply Not Subsidies37:20 Save America Act Debate41:25 Voting Rights Republic Critique52:49 Democracy Incentives Corruption57:12 Two Party No Choice58:42 Podcast Wrap UpYouTube: https://youtube.com/peterschiffX: https://x.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiffOur Sponsors:* Check out Chilipad and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://sleep.me* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/gold for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Just two years after leading Labour to a historic 2024 election victory, Keir Starmer is facing mounting criticism, declining public support, and growing speculation about his political future. What went wrong, and what does it reveal about the deeper problems facing Britain?In this episode of the More Freedom Foundation Podcast, we go beyond the headlines to examine Starmer's political journey from commanding electoral success to the challenges that have come to define his premiership. We discuss the pressures of governing during economic uncertainty, the legacy of Brexit, and why many voters feel Labour has struggled to deliver meaningful change.The conversation also widens its scope to explore Britain's broader trajectory since the Thatcher era. We ask whether decades of economic and political decisions have contributed to Britain's long-term decline, and whether successive governments—regardless of party—have become increasingly constrained in their ability to pursue independent economic policies.A key part of the discussion focuses on the role of the bond market and government borrowing. We examine the argument that financial markets now exert significant influence over British governments, limiting their freedom to chart an independent course and forcing difficult fiscal choices that shape public policy.Finally, we consider what lies ahead for the Labour Party, including whether figures such as Andy Burnham could offer a different vision for Britain's future and what it would take to rebuild public confidence in politics.SubstackPatreonWebsiteBooksTwitterTikTok
July 6, 2026 | Season 8 | Episode 21The Fourth of July story most of us learned leaves out a powerful driver of what America becomes next: debt. We walk through how Revolutionary War financing creates the earliest U.S. bond market, why war bonds and debt certificates start trading at deep discounts, and how that breakdown in public credit helps ignite Shays' Rebellion in Massachusetts. When farmers and veterans can't pay crushing taxes and creditors demand hard money, the “bond market” stops being an abstract concept and becomes a force that can reshape laws, leadership, and the country's future.From there, we bring the lens forward to today's markets. We talk through what we're watching as earnings season kicks off, how leadership can rotate even when indexes look calm, and why rates and the Treasury market still matter more than most headlines admit. We also dig into two underappreciated AI risks: the growing national pushback that blocks or delays data center construction, and the exploding cost of tokens inside corporate AI budgets, especially with reasoning models and AI agents that can burn through usage at unpredictable scale.We close with two practical takeaways you can act on. First, why buying individual municipal bonds can deliver better tax-exempt income flexibility than one-size-fits-all muni bond ETFs, including longer-term yield opportunities and tax swapping. Second, a crucial retirement planning check: new 401(k) catch-up contribution rules may require higher earners over 50 to route catch-up dollars into Roth after-tax accounts, so it's worth verifying your pay stub and plan settings now.

Most people think a green or sustainable label on a bond means it is good for the planet. Often, it does not. A label only tells you what the issuer says it will do with the money. It does not prove that real change happens on the ground.That gap is the heart of this episode of SRI360. I'm joined by Elizabeth Alm, Senior Investment Analyst and Portfolio Manager at Saturna Capital, the oldest and largest Sharia asset manager in the United States. Elizabeth helps run the firm's global sustainable bond fund and its Islamic income fund. Her core belief is simple: that bonds play a central role in financing the transition to a cleaner economy.Elizabeth did not take the usual path into finance. She studied economics and anthropology at NYU and once dreamed of becoming an archaeologist. It took her 50 interviews to land her first job. She opened Excel for the first time on her first day of work, and her first week on a trading desk was the week Bear Stearns collapsed in 2008. Eleven years at Wells Fargo followed, working in municipal bonds as climate risk slowly began to show up in credit.Today she puts less weight on third-party ESG scores and looks for what she calls “climate alpha” — value the market has not priced in yet. In this conversation we cover how sukuk (Islamic bonds) work, why investors who are not Muslim are buying them, and what she learned on a month-long research trip across the Middle East that ended just five days before the Israel-US-Iran war broke out.In this episode we discuss:Why a bond's label tells you the plan, not the real-world impactHow sukuk (Islamic bonds) work, and why they must be backed by real assetsWhy investors who are not Muslim are buying sukukA bond she loves: Tabreed, the UAE cooling company that cuts emissionsWhy sovereigns with high physical climate risk are 18% more likely to defaultHow satellite monitoring helped identify and mitigate 30,000 child-labor cases in a cocoa supply chainThe wave of AI data-center debt, and why she is cautious about itFeatured guest:Elizabeth Alm,Senior Investment Analyst and Portfolio Manager at Saturna CapitalListen Next:Patrick Drum — Saturna Capital (Episode 16): Saturna's Patrick Drum on Islamic Finance, Faith-Based Investing, Sustainable Outcomes, ESG and MoreDiscover More from SRI360°:Explore all episodes of the SRI360° PodcastSign up for the free weekly email update

In this episode, Liz Ann Sonders sits down with Keith McCullough, founder of Hedgeye, to revisit his “quads” framework—a model that categorizes market environments based on the direction of economic growth and inflation. McCullough emphasizes process over prediction, arguing that investors should focus on the momentum of these variables to adapt to rapidly shifting market conditions. The conversation explores a volatile macro backdrop marked by geopolitical shocks, leadership changes at the Fed, and evolving market structure. McCullough explains how increased instability has accelerated market cycles, requiring a more nimble, data-driven approach. He outlines his view that inflation likely peaked and is set to decelerate, setting up a shift toward disinflation, and potentially slower growth, over the coming quarters. They also discuss implications for asset allocation, including declining bond yields globally, a rotation away from mega-cap dominance, and opportunities in under-owned, rate-sensitive sectors like housing and real estate. McCullough highlights growing risks tied to market concentration, new equity supply (including major IPOs), and speculative activity, while stressing the importance of disciplined, rules-based investing. The episode concludes with a discussion of investor behavior, with McCullough urging listeners to detach from narratives and emotions, and instead rely on process, data, and adaptability in an increasingly fast-moving market environment. Finally, Collin and Liz Ann look ahead to next week's upcoming macroeconomic indicators and key data releases.

Swiss bond yields are almost back at zero. The key two-year instrument yields just a couple of basis points and is very likely going to be negative again relatively soon. As we know, Swiss interest rates have very little to do with Switzerland. As a global money center, this is where money goes when it doesn't want to be anywhere else – even to the point international financials are willing to accept zero return to be there.

Patrick Fruzzetti warns the market is showing signs of irrational exuberance, particularly in semiconductors, even as the U.S. consumer remains strong on solid retail sales. He points to inflation risks, geopolitics, and the Fed's influence on the bond market as key drivers of rising rate pressure. Fruzzetti expects bond market stress to spill into equities, leading to increased volatility despite ongoing momentum.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Chris Whalen is back for The Wrap after his fishing trip in Maine, where he caught a 21-inch smallmouth bass! He's very positive on Kevin Warsh's "less is more" approach at the Fed—no forward guidance, likely removing the dot plot, and refocusing on letting the numbers speak for themselves rather than trying to control expectations through communication. Whalen argues the bond market has already delivered a rate hike on its own, and if he were Warsh, he'd wait and see how the Iran peace deal holds before making more moves, given that war inflation is transitory and external to Fed policy. He reveals the definition of inflation will likely be narrowed to minimize rate hikes and avoid tanking the economy, and he's watching a massive rebalancing from equities to bonds at record allocation levels. Whalen sold most of his AI stocks and locked in serious gains, but he's holding SpaceX as a long-term play given Elon's monopolies on space launch and global internet. He warns the AI bubble is going south with Mike Saylor and Bitcoin spiraling, sees gold and silver as a great entry point after being beaten down, and is adding to positions. He explains silver's manufacturing and technology demand while copper faces supply constraints. On Iran, Whalen argues the MOU doesn't solve underlying inflation drivers—diesel, fertilizer, energy ripple through the economy—so double-digit inflation is locked in with no Fed rate cuts coming. He's concerned about private credit festering with two-and-twenty fees still common, distressed debt exchanges now over 70% of defaults since 2022, and he likes Annaly as a mortgage REIT with government-insured assets and mortgage servicing rights providing protection. Whalen notes precious metals could still rise despite rate hikes because central banks will keep accumulating gold as reserve assets.

Ken Shinoda explains how the recent Iran peace deal and Fed actions have calmed inflation fears, impacting the bond market. He suggests reimagining the traditional 60/40 portfolio split, advocating for shorter-duration, high-quality credit assets within the fixed-income allocation. Ken also discusses current ETF flows, highlighting continued demand for core-plus solutions and specialized securitized offerings, noting the ongoing growth and prevalence of the ETF wrapper in the market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) President Trump signed an interim deal to end the war with Iran and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, despite criticism from Republicans. The memorandum of understanding is now in effect, and it envisions the rapid reopening of the strait and immediate sanctions waivers for Iranian oil. The deal has prompted criticism from some of Trump's allies, who say it amounts to a victory for Tehran and that the US is conceding too much, with talks on nuclear issues and potential further financial gains for Iran to follow.2) Traders dumped short-term Treasuries and bet on interest rate hikes after Federal Reserve chairman Kevin Warsh made clear the central bank won’t tolerate high inflation. The hawkish message was driven home by the projections of individual Fed members, half of whom expect to raise rates by the end of the year. The Fed’s message triggered repositioning in markets, with futures traders expecting a quarter-point rate hike by October and 30-year Treasury yields slipping to the lowest since late April.3) A ticker-tape parade celebrating the NBA Champion New York Knicks will step off at 10 a.m. from Bowling Green in Lower Manhattan, traveling north along Broadway, and concludes at City Hall Plaza with a ticketed ceremony. The city is preparing for enormous crowds, with spectators expected to number in the millions, and the NYPD will have 10,000 officers at the event. Viewing areas along the route open at 6 a.m., and police will close access points once viewing areas reach capacity, while the mayor’s office gave away 600 tickets to the City Hall ceremony in a public lottery.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The European Market Brief, host Mark Longo is joined by Dr. Russell Rhoads of Indiana University's Kelley School of Business and Jutta Frey-Hartenberger, Global Product Lead for Government Bond Derivatives at Eurex, for an in-depth exploration of Europe's vast fixed income landscape.

A seemingly simple Fed transition is becoming a massive stress test of the entire financial system as rising debt, inflation, and global energy crisis collide. Luke Gromen of Forest For The Trees joins to discuss Kevin Warsh's looming challenge and why the Fed may soon face choices it can no longer avoid. We explore the dollar versus bond market tradeoff, the impact of the Iran conflict and oil prices, China's growing leverage, financial warfare, swap lines, and what it all means for stocks, gold, Bitcoin, and global markets.

Liz Ann Sonders and Collin Martin discuss the recent wave of IPO hype and the surge in investor interest driven by high-profile listings and large valuation headlines. They explain why headline market caps can be misleading, emphasizing the importance of float-adjusted valuations and how much stock is actually available to public investors. Despite attention-grabbing figures, the impact of these IPOs on major indexes like the S&P 500® may be smaller than many assume. Liz Ann and Collin discuss how potential changes to index inclusion rules, including shorter eligibility timelines and flexibility around profitability requirements, could alter how quickly newly public companies enter major benchmarks. In addition, they highlight structural dynamics such as lockup expirations and the gradual increase in share float over time, which can influence trading behavior well after the initial offering. Behavioral factors also play a central role in the discussion. Liz Ann revisits the risks of speculative investing, noting how FOMO and a "casino-like" market environment can lead investors to chase IPO hype rather than consider long-term portfolio fit. They stress the importance of discipline and context when evaluating new investment opportunities. The conversation then shifts to the broader macro backdrop, including the Federal Reserve's policy outlook and recent movements in the bond market. Collin outlines the Fed's likely wait-and-see approach amid rising inflation, noting that while the balance of risks has shifted, a single rate move may not signal a broader trend. They also discuss the potential impact of Fed decisions on long-term yields and overall market stability. Finally, Liz Ann and Collin preview upcoming economic data releases, including inflation reports, labor market indicators, and sentiment surveys, and discuss what they'll be watching in the week ahead.

We're back with another episode of The Week, a new weekly show from Prof G Media, hosted by George Hahn. Every Friday, we'll break down the biggest stories shaping business, technology, politics, and culture — and connect the dots across the conversations happening throughout the Prof G universe. This week, George breaks down why the bond market is suddenly sounding alarms and why it may be signaling something much bigger than inflation. We discuss the economic fallout from the war in Iran, rising oil prices, growing fears around U.S. debt, and why investors are starting to worry that borrowing costs could stay higher for longer. Plus: China and Russia grow closer, SpaceX files for a massive IPO, and Gavin Newsom shares a deeply personal story about regret, leadership, and family.

Peter Schiff argues the bond market is telling the real story: with $13 trillion in debt maturing this year plus $3 trillion in new borrowing, the US needs to convince creditors to roll over nearly $20 trillion — an amount without historical precedent.The AI CapEx bubble is now consuming a trillion dollars a year, funded by layoffs and foregone investment in actual manufacturing. Schiff compares it to dot-com: the technology is real but the stocks are wildly overvalued and most will go to zero when rising interest rates prick the bubble. Meanwhile, Michael Saylor burned over 60% of Strategy's cash reserves paying off zero-interest convertible notes three years early — a move Schiff says was forced by behind-the-scenes pressure, not financial genius. Elizabeth Warren accidentally made the best case against payroll taxes by pointing out that companies are incentivized to replace workers with AI because hiring people is taxed while buying computers isn't — though her solution is more taxes, not fewer.Chapters:00:00 - Intro00:53 - Iran War & Market Reaction06:47 - Bond Market & The Debt Crisis14:25 - Ad Break: Ethos15:47 - The AI CapEx Bubble26:23 - Gold, Silver & Mining Stocks29:11 - IRS Lawsuit & Bank Documentary32:12 - Ad Break: Rockwell Automation33:35 - Elizabeth Warren's AI Tax Proposal47:28 - Strategy, Bitcoin & The Coming Bust57:25 - Tokenized Gold vs Bitcoin58:42 - Summer Sign-Off & 250th AnniversaryFollow @peterschiffX: https://twitter.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiffFree Reports & Market Updates: https://www.europac.comBook Store: https://schiffradio.com/booksSign up for Peter's most valuable insights at https://schiffsovereign.comSchiff Gold News: https://www.schiffgold.com/news#PeterSchiffShow #DebtCrisis #GoldInvestingOur Sponsors:* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
In Episode 481 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with economist and Talking Heads Macroeconomics founder Manoj Pradhan about his and Charles Goodhart's new book, The Unanchored Central Banker, which argues that structural forces—aging demographics chief among them—are driving real interest rates persistently higher, deteriorating fiscal positions across the developed world, and ultimately forcing central banks to choose between monetary stability and accommodating the political demands of indebted governments. The first hour lays out the foundations of Manoj and Charles's thesis. They discuss why an aging population and a shrinking workforce put structural upward pressure on real interest rates through two primary channels: (1) rising public debt issuance to cover unfunded liabilities like healthcare and Social Security, and (2) persistent demand for new housing construction that competes for the same limited pool of savings as the elderly delay vacating their homes. They examine how other spending pressures—from defense and climate to digital infrastructure and data center buildouts—compound the fiscal problem, why Manoj expects this to eventually produce a regime of financial repression, and the role China has played and continues to play in this broader macroeconomic story. They also discuss why the bond market appears to be partially pricing in this thesis while equity and credit markets remain comparatively unresponsive, and what recent episodes of bond market stress in the UK, France, and Japan tell us about the proximity of the regime change Manoj and Charles have been forecasting for the better part of a decade. The second hour digs deeper into the housing market and the political economy of intergenerational wealth transfers. They explore Manoj's contrarian view on AI and inequality—drawing on the work of labor economist David Autor and Manoj's own experience implementing AI tools in his research—and why he believes the diffuse nature of this general-purpose technology's impact on white-collar work makes it qualitatively different from prior technological revolutions. They then turn to the two distinct channels through which central banks lose their independence: fiscal dominance and what Manoj and Charles call financial dominance. They discuss the political pressure currently being exerted on the Federal Reserve, the implementation of credit rationing as described by Russell Napier, and what all of this means for investors thinking about asset allocation in a world where the platform of global interest rates is structurally higher—where, in Manoj's words, equity markets will have to earn their earnings rather than be lifted by a tide of cheap capital.

Kevin Warsh wants a smaller Fed balance sheet and fewer dot plots. Noelle Acheson says the bond market won't let him have either. Here's what she expects instead. --- Heads up! If you haven't yet, be sure to subscribe to Bits + Bips, since the show will migrate there in a few weeks. Follow us on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify, X, Unchained and wherever you get your podcasts. ---- Bond yields are climbing globally while stock markets push higher on AI optimism — and Noelle Acheson, author of the Crypto Is Macro Now newsletter, argues the divergence is not a contradiction but a warning. In her read, inflation was building before the Hormuz crisis, the BLISS trade has permanently replaced the TACO trade as the structural put under markets, and Kevin Warsh is walking into a Fed that the bond market controls more than he does. She also flags a contrarian indicator nobody is talking about: the gap between the cap-weighted S&P 500 and the equal-weight index is widening at a pace last seen in 1999.

Welcome to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today's final London episode, we dig into the unverified Iran framework reportedly brokered between the US and Tehran — a 30-day pause that may have more to do with calming a fracturing bond market than ending a war. Joining Tom is Drew, who walks us through the leaked terms, why Netanyahu reportedly had "his hair on fire" on a call with Trump, and what Israel's rumored surprise strike could mean for any path to a permanent deal. From there, the conversation widens into the wealth extraction lens on modern warfare, the three industrial complexes running the show, and the four simultaneous bond markets flashing historic warning signs. Tom breaks down the Cape ratio hitting levels not seen since 1929 and 1999, walks through his own personal portfolio (three years in cash, Bitcoin, gold, short-term US debt, and broad diversification), and explains why timing the market is a fool's errand compared to building a thesis. We also cover Bernie Sanders' new bill to cap super PAC contributions at $5K — a rare moment of cross-aisle agreement for Tom — alongside a brutal point-by-point dismantling of California gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer's claim that we just need to "tax billionaires more." Spoiler: per-capita inflation-adjusted spending on transportation, healthcare, and education is already up 50%, 100%, and 700% respectively since 1952. The problem isn't taxation. It's competence. Plus: the largest autism fraud case in US history out of Minnesota, AOC's brown-water data center stunt that Tom calls "treasonous," Jeff Bezos predicting AI will let one spouse leave the workforce, the AI-made film premiering at Cannes, Spotify and Universal's new AI remix licensing deal, the Figure robot running 200 hours error-free, and a viral CEO firing his entire HR department.

Gold and silver pull back as WTI tops $107 and the 30-year hits 5.14% — Peter says plunging real rates make this dip a gift.This episode is sponsored by InvestingPRO.

Get an extra 4 months free. http://expressvpn.com/goldPeter Schiff goes live to break down the market moves since Wednesday's podcast, with gold and silver pulling back as oil surges past $107 WTI and bond yields punch higher — the 10-year at 4.62% and the 30-year at 5.14%. Schiff argues the short-term selloff is being driven entirely by the nominal yield move, but with inflation accelerating, real rates are actually plunging — a setup that is deeply bullish for precious metals and exactly the buying opportunity stackers have been waiting for. He points to the positively sloped yield curve across every maturity as the bond market's clearest signal yet that higher rates and higher inflation are still ahead.Schiff also delivers another Bitcoin reality check, walking through BTC's ongoing underperformance versus gold and the recent debates around long-term holdings, and explains why physical metals remain the only credible vehicle for real wealth preservation. The episode wraps with the latest on exploding deficits and a ballooning government, why true conservatives — and gold owners — are needed now more than ever, and fresh insights from SchiffGold on Comex flows and the increasingly urgent case for a return to sound money.Our Sponsors:* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
