Tom welcomes back Don Durrett, author, investor, and founder of Goldstockdata.com, to discuss the current state of gold, silver, and the broader economic developments. During their conversation, gold reached an all-time high, with spot prices near $2863 and futures above $2900. Silver is trading around $32.26, while the HUI (Hard Rock Miners' Index) stood at 328. The London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) reported delivery delays of four to eight weeks, indicating potential shortages. Lease rates have spiked to five percent, a significant increase from the usual one percent or less. Don suggested this could be due to LBMA supply issues. Don emphasized silver's role as a proxy for gold, particularly during periods of economic uncertainty. He warned of potential shortages in silver, driven by competing demands from investors and industrial fabricators. This could lead to dramatic price increases if a fear trade begins. Despite strong stock market performance, Don expressed concerns about an impending "rug pull," where the market could crash due to economic factors like inflation, high interest rates, and tariff policies. He highlighted issues such as consumer discretionary spending constraints, commercial real estate overhangs, and rising bankruptcies in small businesses. The Fed's inability to cut rates due to inflation concerns was discussed, along with potential implications for the economy. Don speculated that the Fed might resort to quantitative easing (QE) in response to a market crash, though he questioned their ability to manage regional bank crises.

In this episode, your host Tom Bodrovics invites back Don Durrett, author, investor, and founder of Goldstockdata.com, to discuss the economic conditions shaping gold's performance. Don highlights the U.S.'s weakening economy and global uncertainty as catalysts for gold's growth. He believes that a floor for gold exists at $2,200 due to its inverse relationship with the economy. Don touches upon the Federal Reserve's challenges in managing inflation and interest rates, pointing to unprecedented debt levels. He voices concerns about the reliability of economic data, questioning their accuracy and suggesting consumer spending might be weaker than presented. He predicts a potential 50 basis point rate cut due to signs of slowing growth. The conversation also addresses market volatility caused by Japan's potential interest rate hike and its impact on the yen carry trade. Don raises concerns about imminent challenges in the bond market, which holds more significance than the stock market, as credit could get turned off when countries reach a point of no return. He advises investing in gold and silver as alternatives during economic instability and predicts significant price increases for these metals. Don also anticipates that gold miners will benefit from a rate cutting cycle due to their improved margins during recessions.

Tom Bodrovics, welcomes back Don Durrett, an experienced author, investor, and founder of Goldstockdata.com, to discuss gold prices and the economic implications. Durrett believes an imminent hard economic landing will boost his bullish stance on gold. In March 2023, gold reached new highs above $2050, while silver showed significant gains. However, miners have not followed suit. Durrett considers the present economic climate different from previous periods due to the Federal Reserve's reduced ability to revive the economy. He highlights that while the US economy grew and used debt in the 1990s, it eventually balanced its budget. However, since then, the US economy has reportedly been declining for approximately 25 years, leading to significant global shifts like countries abandoning US bonds and equities and increasing interest in gold as a reserve currency. Japan's bond and currency struggles could potentially trigger a crisis due to their substantial US treasury holdings. Durrett discusses the potential impact of Asian countries purchasing gold and the importance of oil purchases in gold-importing countries like Japan and China. Don expresses bearish views on the stock market and bullish predictions for silver prices due to inventory shortages, increasing demand, and potential manipulation attempts like those seen with the Hunt Brothers in the past. Don shares his perspective on gold miners using the HUI index to identify buying and selling opportunities. He considers anything below $250 on the HUI cheap, with levels between $200 and $225 being the buy zone. Opportunities for cheaper stocks extend from $225 to $250. However, as the HUI approaches $300, fewer cheap stocks become available. He anticipates the gold miners' bull market hasn't started yet but expects it to resume in the next couple of months and predicts a potential dip in gold and silver prices before the significant uptrend begins. The summer may not be as uneventful this year due to potential rapid market movements once risk-on sentiment shifts to risk-off. Don has been successful with mid-tier producers some of which have seen substantial growth through acquisitions. He also discusses his investment strategy, holding stocks amidst potential economic downturns, diversification through various investments such as silver, crypto, and physical preparation by selling to the top. He also mentions the unsustainability of constant wars due to increasing budget deficits, implying that peace may prevail as America retreats from its aggressive role on the global stage.

Tom welcomes Don Durrett, author, investor, and founder of GoldStockData.com back to the show. Don believes that everything is aligning for gold this year. While many markets reached all-time highs last year, Don feels that this is misplaced. He suggests that everyone is focusing on near-term profits related to rate cuts, but the Federal Reserve's main priority is financial stability, particularly aimed at preventing a crisis or collapse, rather than inflation. Don points out that rate hikes have had a negative impact on various sectors and industries. He describes the U.S. economy as a facade built on debt, low rates, and deficit spending. In 2023, there was significant fiscal stimulus, which delayed a recession, but Don argues that the government is taking credit for falsely inflated GDP growth numbers. This is why gold is approaching the $2000 level, as adding an additional trillion dollars of debt become increasingly routine. Don also expresses his belief that interest rates will not drop significantly. Consequently, many companies are relying on low rates to stay afloat. Don follows a strategy of investing in junior miners but keeps his individual allocations relatively low due to the risk/reward ratio. While some miners can yield massive returns, others may fail. He advises investors to accumulate stocks and buy when there are market dips. However, he cautions against becoming too attached and overexposed to any particular stock. Don reveals that despite being undervalued and possessing valuable resources, many junior miners are still neglected by investors. Additionally, he expresses concerns about the bond markets and how the U.S. is heavily dependent on foreign capital, which could lead to problems spilling over to the equity markets. He puts forth $3000 as a conservative projection for gold and suggests that silver could potentially reach $100. Discussing the sentiment towards miners, Don explains that interest in the sector declined in 2013 and has not recovered since. He believes that when the economy is strong, people tend to ignore gold. He emphasizes the need for a shift in sentiment regarding bonds and the dollar to drive the price of gold upward. Don concludes by discussing various inflation scenarios and potential for energy crises, particularly related to shale. Finally, he addresses the inevitability of a debt reset and expresses concerns about the political divide in the United States, suggesting that the country is slowly fracturing.

Tom welcomes Don Durrett, author, investor, and founder of GoldStockData.com back to the show. Don believes that the Fed is killing the banking industry, causing inflation to drop rapidly and leading us into a recession. They've been focused on regaining their MMT toolbox, as well as insuring enough liquidity in the market to prevent system failure. This is causing a paradigm shift in the economy. Layoffs will lead to a significant recession and possibly our own "lost decade". Credit availability is decreasing and earnings are expected to decline. The odds favor another drop in gold during a market selloff. Silver is undervalued and banks are preventing the metals from outperforming equities. Changes to Mexican mining laws are raising taxes, and potential for nationalization of mines remains a concern. Dan believes silver will be designated as a strategic metal and ETFs outlawed when shortages occur. He advises selling silver miners before gold miners.

Tom welcomes back Don Durrett Author, Investor & Owner of GoldStockData.com to the show. Don believes that the financial media and government tend to release bullish information which is inaccurate and misleading. He believes the real threat is the economy not coming back to life, since the Fed rarely gets anything right. A new liquidity crisis or "Lehmann moment" is coming. The Fed will have to react to the economy instead of steering it. Don is bullish on gold and silver and thinks that commodities such as energy, copper and most others will rise this decade. He believes we will also have a rally in the dollar as a fear trade. Don predicts that gold will have a pullback to the $1740 region once Wall Street realizes there won't be a soft landing. He believes silver will eventually reach $100. This will be preceded by a growing supply deficit which will manifest in a shortage of 1000 ounce bars.

Tom welcomes back Don Durrett Author, Investor & Owner of GoldStockData.com to the show. He expected a breakout for gold at the end of 2020 but the stock markets took off and it was clear we were in for a decline. He expects a correction in the markets in the next few months which should be the trigger to send gold higher. Historically it's rare for markets to move up for an entire year without a correction. The only thing that matters today is the Fed's ability to create liquidity. There is a lot of uncertainty and tension in the system and few reasons to be bullish. There is also uncertainty around Covid which will linger into 2022. Most investors aren't paying close attention to the weak economic numbers. Most investors are in a wait and see what happens mode. Don discusses Jeremy Grantham's excellent track record in predicting markets and why investors should pay close attention to his calls. The Fed keeps stating that inflation is transitory but most prices are soaring. Inflation is a negative factor for the economy. Therefore, it seems like time to be defensive. We could be in for a severe recession where it's difficult to find most jobs. Corporate tax rates are going higher but they haven't raised it on those earning below one million. Biden is going after business which has not happened since the 1930s. These policies will hurt the economy over the next couple of years. Don discusses his "buy of the century" which is the silver miners. With silver miners, the potential rewards could be even greater than gold particularly once it moves past $35 as there will be little resistance remaining. Lastly, Don discusses his approach for finding opportunities in the miners.

He then discusses how to invest in gold and silver stocks: lifecycle of a mine, how to analyze drill results, how to value a company, the green lights and red flags that should be identified.

Tom welcomes a new guest to the show Don Durrett. Don believes that gold is currently trapped on the chart and will fall before it recovers. Investors currently don't have a good reason to exit the stock market and buy gold. If a correction occurs in stocks, it seems unlikely that gold will avoid taking a liquidity hit, but it will recover. The US has been moving towards MMT policy since 2008, and we are slowly turning Japanese by copying their yield curve control. Last week the 10-Year moved sharply up and caused a small sell-off. Never before has the Fed tried to control interest rates at the five or ten-year level. The Fed's balance sheet is ballooning, and the approach now is that "debt doesn't matter." The Fed is the defacto manipulator and controller of the economy and is going to try and print its way out. We are in a transition to a brave new era. Don discusses how the Fed can lower interest rates, but they can't control the real rates when you factor inflation. Gold can't stay below $2000 for much longer because of major economic factors. Don explains how Bitcoin could work as a reserve instrument for a country's currency. He questions the belief that 2% inflation is necessary because that means a currency will devalue 50% in only 36 years. Don says, "There isn't enough silver to go around between manufacturers and investors once the economic system begins imploding." Once above $30, you will see the retail crowd show up. The shortage in silver isn't that severe yet, but once investor demand reaches 35% of annual production, you will have a shortage. He says, "Silver won't go over thirty until gold joins the party." Lastly, Don discusses the benefits of careful stock-picking compared with Royalty plays and what to look for in junior mining companies.

He has worked in IT-related positions for 20+ years. He has been a gold investor since 1991, with a focus on Junior Mining stocks since 2004. Realizing the value of investing in gold and silver and noticing the lack of available material for first-time investors, Don set out to provide information. First, he wrote a book, How to Invest in Gold & Silver: A Complete Guide with a Focus on Mining Stocks. He followed up the book with a website (www.goldstockdata.com) to provide data, tools, and analysis for gold and silver stock investors. His gold and silver mining stock newsletter is widely regarded as one of the best. He is a frequent guest on financial podcasts and a contributor to SeekingAlpha.com.

Juliane Corona graduated from California State University Bakersfield with a degree in Business Administration, focusing on Marketing. After she became pregnant, she began researching the benefits of placenta encapsulation and was disappointed to find no one in her area offered the service, so she decided to take matters into her own hands. Juliane trained under another Placenta Encapsulation specialist in California then went on to earn certifications in Bloodborne Pathogens and OSHA’s Safe Food Handling before completing the Placenta Benefits training program.
