Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael Howell

Michael Howell, Managing Director at GL Indexes, warns that the global liquidity cycle is rolling over — just as AI spending, inflation pressure, Treasury stress, and China's gold strategy are reshaping markets. In this interview with Maggie Lake, Howell explains why AI may be inflationary before it becomes deflationary, why the U.S. economy is pulling liquidity out of financial markets, and why investors may be moving from “speculation” into a more dangerous phase of the cycle. He also breaks down why he believes China is the real force driving gold, how crypto is flashing a liquidity warning, and why the Fed's 2% inflation target may be fantasy. This is a must-watch for investors trying to understand what comes next for stocks, bonds, gold, Bitcoin, oil, and real assets as liquidity tightens and inflation risk return

Michael Howell, CEO of CrossBorder Capital, an investment advisory firm, and author of Capital Wars, returns to The Julia La Roche Show for an in-studio episode. In this episode, Howell reveals money is flowing out of financial markets into the real economy, marking the end of Wall Street's era and the beginning of Main Street's turn. He warns the market is in a "speculation phase" with low quality returns built on narrow foundations—only AI and semiconductors are racing while most securities stagnate—and the next phase will be "turbulence" as liquidity slows and the bearish flattening yield curve continues. Howell details how the system has monetized with the Treasury refinancing $600 billion per week in short-term bills, notes there is "unquestionably way too much debt," and makes the contrarian call that the Fed will raise rates in the next 12 months because the economy is too strong at 7-8% nominal GDP growth. He positions commodities and energy as the place to be, argues gold is a hedge against monetary inflation (not CPI), and suggests the gold-oil ratio could imply oil prices of $200 per barrel.Thank you to our sponsor Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Links:  Website: http://www.crossbordercapital.com/ Twitter/X https://x.com/crossbordercapSubstack: https://capitalwars.substack.com/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Capital-Wars-Rise-Global-Liquidity/dp/30303929020:00 Opening - Money leaving financial markets for real economy1:29 Speculation phase - Low quality returns on narrow foundations6:49 Liquidity rolling over - Rate of change critical7:38 Money flowing from financial sector to real economy13:23 Debt refinancing phenomenon - 4 out of 5 transactions15:25 Way too much debt, only monetization is the way out16:40 China monetizing like Japan did with Abenomics19:32 US monetization already happening - $600B weekly debt refinancing24:28 MOVE index suppressed through treasury buybacks30:12 Kevin Warsh expectations for new Fed chair32:01 Inflation no longer transitory - Now illusionary35:48 Monetary inflation hurdle 7-8% per year37:26 What to own - Diversified into commodities, energy, gold40:10 Gold-oil ratio could mean oil $200 per barrel40:50 Contrarian call - Fed must raise rates in 12 months43:15 Find him at Capital Wars Substack

Michael Howell breaks down why markets are still rising even as global liquidity starts to turn. From hidden stimulus to a booming commodity cycle, this isn't the economy most people think it is.#gold #stockmarket #bondmarket ------------

Liquidity may be sending a very different signal than most investors think, challenging the dominant narrative around growth, rates, and risk. We sit down with Michael Howell of CrossBorder Capital, a leading voice on global liquidity, to unpack where we are in the cycle and why his framework diverges from consensus views on markets and the economy. We explore the liquidity vs. business cycle divide, yield curve dynamics, Treasury-driven liquidity, rising commodities, and why all signals may be pointing toward a late-cycle shift. Enjoy!

Michael Howell, CEO of CrossBorder Capital, an investment advisory firm, and author of Capital Wars, returns to The Julia La Roche Show, returns seven months after his last appearance to update his Global Liquidity call. The peak he flagged for Q3 2025 has held, and the cycle now points to a trough in 2027. Despite the Iran conflict and market volatility, Michael argues the world economy is actually holding up better than the media suggests — but that's almost the problem, because money flowing into the real economy is draining it from financial markets. He explains why the current rally is phoney, why bond term premia falling is actually a flight to safety signal not a selloff, and why we're in the Speculation phase — where economies feel strongest right before things get difficult. He walks through his full asset allocation traffic light system, the debt liquidity nexus, why the Fed and Treasury may be secretly targeting the MOVE index to protect the basis trade and collateral system, the COVID-era debt maturity wall now coming due, and why raising interest rates in today's world may actually be stimulative — not contractionary — because the government is the biggest borrower and higher rates just transfer more income to the private sector. He closes on Treasury QE replacing Fed QE and what it means for Bitcoin.Links:  Website: http://www.crossbordercapital.com/ Twitter/X https://x.com/crossbordercapSubstack: https://capitalwars.substack.com/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Capital-Wars-Rise-Global-Liquidity/dp/303039290200:00 — Introduction and welcome back Michael01:15 — Where we are in the liquidity cycle — asset allocation clock and the five to six year cycle05:15 — Julia asks about the phoney rally — Michael digs in05:35 — The AI-based World GDP model — Iran far less damaging than tariffs or COVID09:37 — All money anywhere must be somewhere — why a stronger real economy drains financial markets13:18 — The sine wave estimated 25 years ago — peak Q3 2025, trough 202715:37 — Daily granular liquidity data — the downtrend confirmed17:16 — How to stay positioned without getting whipsawed by relief rallies18:49 — What bonds are really saying — breaking down term premia vs policy rates22:42 — The Speculation phase — economies feel strongest right before it gets hard23:45 — The yield curve as liquidity barometer — why steepening consensus was wrong27:15 — The winter analogy — don't go outside in a swimsuit during winter29:40 — The asset allocation traffic lights — what to own at each phase33:51 — Julia asks what gets exposed when the tide goes out34:27 — The debt liquidity nexus — 80% of transactions are refinancing, 77% of lending is collateral based36:53 — The MOVE index — why bond volatility governs the entire collateral multiplier37:49 — Why Michael thinks the Fed and Treasury are quietly targeting the MOVE index40:30 — What happens if they stop capping it — basis trade collapses, collateral doom loop42:18 — The debt maturity wall — COVID debt turned out to end of decade, now coming back48:34 — The Fed is preoccupied with the wrong tool — the world has fundamentally changed51:00 — The Alice in Wonderland problem — raising rates today is actually stimulative53:00 — Kevin Warsh and the balance sheet — why slashing it is impractical right now54:23 — Treasury QE replacing Fed QE — short end issuance, monetization into real economy57:17 — Bitcoin and crypto — Treasury QE stabilization vs the bigger falling liquidity force01:00:02 — Final thoughts — count liquidity, get corroboration, don't rely on one club

Michael Howell of GL Indexes and Capital Wars joins Ed D'Agostino to explain how global liquidity is being drained by four converging forces—central bank tightening, surging oil, a rising dollar, and spiking bond volatility—just as a massive wall of COVID-era debt comes due for refinancing. He makes the case that the bull market is likely over, the traditional 60/40 portfolio is breaking down, and where investors should be looking.

CrossBorder Capital founder Michael Howell built his framework for tracking global liquidity while at Salomon Brothers. His central thesis: the ratio between debt and liquidity predicts financial crises and asset bubbles. Howell explains why the $350 trillion global debt pile requires $70 trillion in annual refinancing, how ZIRP created the "everything bubble," and what happens when the bill comes due.

Global liquidity veteran Michael Howell joins to map out the “master variable” driving asset prices: a 65-month global liquidity and debt refinancing cycle that underpins booms, busts, and the recent “everything bubble.” He breaks down the coming debt maturity wall, rising repo stress, the shift from Fed QE to “Treasury QE,” and a new capital war between a US dollar stablecoin system and China's gold-backed strategy. Plus, what all of this means for Bitcoin, gold, equities, and how to position as the current cycle rolls over.  ------

MacroVoices Erik Townsend & Patrick Ceresna welcome, Michael Howell. They'll discuss the global liquidity cycle, why it has a 65-month periodicity, and where we stand in that cycle right now. https://bit.ly/3X7ZN0J  

Why the Next Financial Crisis Is Already Here | Michael Howell | Two Blokes Trading Ep. 13In this episode of Two Blokes Trading, we speak with Michael Howell, founder of CrossBorder Capital and author of the “Capital Wars” Substack, to unpack the real driver behind today's market turmoil: a growing global liquidity crisis. Michael explains why liquidity, not just interest rates, is the engine powering asset prices and why the global economy is now deep into a debt refinancing cycle that could trigger major funding stress.From repo market volatility and Fed balance sheet tightening to rising systemic risk in sovereign debt markets, Michael shares the signals smart traders need to watch and how to trade ahead of the curve. We also explore why gold, Bitcoin, and other inflation hedges are flashing warning signs and what happens when central banks are forced to restart quantitative easing.This is not another macro overview. It is a deep, data-driven discussion on the structural cracks in global liquidity. Whether you are a retail trader or managing larger portfolios, this episode will change how you read the markets.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Michael Howell explains why global liquidity, not interest rates, is the real driver of financial market trends and why the next crisis may already be unfolding. You will learn how more than 80 percent of capital markets activity is now focused on debt refinancing rather than investment and why this shift increases systemic risk.We explore the mounting pressure in repo markets, the importance of monitoring SOFR spreads, and how reduced liquidity from the Federal Reserve could lead to disruptions in funding markets. Michael also breaks down the risks posed by trade fails, the structural liquidity gap in US bank reserves, and why hedge funds are playing a critical role as marginal buyers of US Treasuries.The episode also examines long-term forecasts for gold and Bitcoin as barometers of monetary risk, and what traders can learn from shifts in central bank behavior. You will come away with a stronger understanding of liquidity cycles, how they differ from traditional business cycles, and how to position yourself before major market turns.Jonathan Farrelly – HostJonathan started his trading journey over 15 years ago, learning from some of the best institutional traders in the world.

Welcome back to Mining Stock Daily, as Trevor Hall sits down with Michael Howell of Crossborder Capital, famously known as the "king of liquidity," for an intense discussion on the escalating global "Capital War". This conflict is defined not by kinetic action, but by the fight for currency dominance, where the immense movement of capital around the world vastly outweighs traditional trade flows. Howell explains China's longstanding policy to replace the dominance of the US dollar through various strategies, notably the aggressive accumulation of gold, which aims to provide confidence and stability to their developing system. The US system faces challenges from an exploding structural deficit that could push the debt-to-GDP ratio to 250% by 2050, a fiscal trajectory that Howell projects could lead to a gold price of $25,000 per ounce. Crucially, both the US and China are engaging in debt monetization through massive liquidity injections—a process that both major world engines are using to finance spending and which historically leads to the devaluation of paper money against gold. Looking ahead, Howell provides an investment outlook, suggesting that the impetus of directed government spending and the strategic need for governments to control resources makes moving toward commodities a highly favorable position for investors.

This week, we're joined by Michael Howell of CrossBorder Capital live from DAS London to break down the global liquidity cycle, the hidden recession and re-acceleration in the U.S., the impact of monetary debasement on gold and Bitcoin, China's liquidity surge and stablecoin risks, and Europe's structural challenges. We close with why today's environment is truly unique in 4,000 years of monetary history.

Michael Howell, the “Godfather of Liquidity” and founder of CrossBorder Capital, explains why monetary inflation is fueling all asset classes, and why gold's rise is only beginning.From China's stealth devaluation and gold-backed yuan ambitions to the coming debt-liquidity crisis, Howell outlines the roadmap to a $10,000+ gold era.------------

Michael Howell, CEO of CrossBorder Capital, an investment advisory firm, and author of Capital Wars, returns to The Julia La Roche Show, where he analyzes global liquidity trends and warns of market risks ahead. Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia In this episode, Howell presents his global liquidity cycle framework showing markets are late in a 35-month bull run that began in late 2022, with early warning signs emerging in repo markets as SOFR spreads spike. He warns of a massive debt refinancing wall hitting 2026-2029 from COVID-era borrowing, while the Fed transitions from QE to "Treasury QE" under Bessent's direction to fund real economy priorities. Howell's most striking thesis involves gold price targets of $10,000 by the late 2030s and $25,000 by 2052 based on structural deficit math, driven by both US monetary inflation and China's liquidity expansion to escape its debt crisis. He advocates for monetary inflation hedges like gold and Bitcoin as central banks deliberately weaken currencies in a "Make America Great" strategy against China.Links:  Website: http://www.crossbordercapital.com/ Twitter/X https://x.com/crossbordercapSubstack: https://capitalwars.substack.com/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Capital-Wars-Rise-Global-Liquidity/dp/30303929020:00 Welcome and introduction - Michael Howell returns to discuss markets1:14 Global liquidity cycle framework - 5-6 year cycle approaching top3:41 Late cycle positioning - thinking end game vs beginning6:06 Debt-liquidity integration - 80% of lending now collateral-backed8:46 Early warning signs - SOFR spreads and repo market tensions11:49 Debt-liquidity ratio analysis - refinancing crisis ahead14:15 COVID debt echo effect - massive refinancing wall 2026-202917:04 Fed balance sheet slowdown - similar to early 2022 conditions18:51 Treasury QE emergence - Bessent directing liquidity to real economy20:20 Stablecoin monetization - credit providers buying government debt22:36 Plain vanilla cycle - everything following normal script25:00 Asset allocation phases - rebound, calm, speculation, turbulence29:20 Gold breakout analysis - disconnect from real rates since 202231:45 Structural deficit math - mandatory spending blowout ahead33:42 Gold price targets - $10,000 by late 2030s, $25,000 by 205235:56 Monetary vs high street inflation - currency devaluation vs CPI39:44 Fed independence questioned - Treasury QE running the show41:51 Make America Great currency war - deliberate dollar weakening44:08 China's gold strategy - escaping debt crisis through monetization46:33 Chinese liquidity expansion - driving global commodity reflation50:05 Final thoughts - late cycle caution, gold as monetary hedge

Forget the noise about rate cuts or inflation targets; the real story is about monetary inflation, fiscal dominance, and a looming $40 trillion debt rollover that could flip the financial system upside down.~~~~~

Jul 8, 2025 – Few understand the mechanics of global liquidity like Dr. Michael Howell. In this exclusive interview, he reveals what's really driving asset prices—and what investors must watch now. Today, we discuss Fed policy, China's central bank, and...

Michael Howell warns that the global financial system is approaching a breaking point, not from a recession, but from a massive mismatch between debt and liquidity. As the U.S. and other governments try to roll over trillions in short-term debt at rising interest rates, the quiet result is monetary inflation. In this explosive interview with James Connor, Howell explains why 5% bond yields are the new normal, why the 60/40 portfolio model is obsolete, and why China, not just the Fed, may be driving the gold bull market. He warns that global bond markets are flashing danger, and the coming 2026–2028 refinancing cliff could trigger the next big crisis. Key Topics: • Why bond yields are rising globally, and what that means for markets • The most overlooked metric: debt-to-liquidity, not debt-to-GDP • How governments are quietly monetizing deficits, risking long-term damage • Why China's liquidity surge may be fueling the gold and Bitcoin rally • The real reason traditional portfolios won't survive this macro regime Volatility got you concerned?

What happens to the practice of medicine when machines begin to reason, summarize and even empathize — at least in the linguistic sense — better than humans do? In this episode, we meet with Michael Howell, MD, MPH, Chief Clinical Officer at Google, to explore the seismic shifts underway in healthcare as artificial intelligence becomes more deeply embedded in clinical workflows. Dr. Howell, a pulmonary and critical care physician, has spent his career at the crossroads of clinical excellence and systems innovation. Before joining Google, he served as chief quality officer at University of Chicago Medicine. At Google, he leads the development and implementation of AI technologies intended to support scalable, safe and equitable medical care. Over the course of our conversation, we examine what AI is and isn't. We delve into how large language models are reshaping the cognitive labor of clinicians, the implications of machines that may someday outperform humans in diagnosis, and whether there is something inherently human about healing that algorithms will never capture. Along the way, we discuss not only the promises of AI, but also its hidden dangers, ethical landmines, and the enduring question — in a future defined by ever smarter machines. What does it mean to be a good doctor?In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:43 - Dr. Howell's path to medicine and eventually to becoming Chief Clinical Officer at Google 6:45 - Why examining the differences between theory and implementation of technology matters17:35 - The evolution of AI and its clinical capabilities26:05 - The definition of “thinking” in the age of AI36:11 - How AI could change the landscape of healthcare on a global scale50:26 - The ethics of using — and not using — AI in medicine54:36 - The role of a doctor in 20 years Visit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Michael Howell, CEO of CrossBorder Capital, an investment advisory firm, and author of the book, “Capital Wars: The Rise Of Global Liquidity,” returns to The Julia La Roche Show where he analyzes global liquidity trends and warns of market risks ahead. Howell explains we're entering an "air pocket" in global liquidity despite the overall upward trend that began in October 2022. He examines the "hidden stimulus" from Yellen and Powell that's now fading, details why the US Treasury's bill-heavy financing strategy exposes government funding to interest rate risk, and discusses a theory about Trump potentially revaluing US gold reserves to generate a $1.25 trillion windfall. For investors facing 2025's "much more uncertain year," Howell advises caution and suggests that real assets—particularly gold—may outperforSponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Links:  Website: http://www.crossbordercapital.com/ Twitter/X https://x.com/crossbordercapSubstack: https://capitalwars.substack.com/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Capital-Wars-Rise-Global-Liquidity/dp/303039290200:00 Intro and welcome Michael Howell01:25 - Current state of the global liquidity cycle and the emerging "air pocket" 03:50 - The hidden stimulus from Fed and Treasury that's now fading06:16 - How bill-focused Treasury financing is effectively "monetizing the deficit" 11:04 - China's central bank actions and their global economic impact15:54 - Signs of a potential Chinese policy shift toward economic growth18:35 - Parallels between Trump and Nixon's economic approaches 21:37 - Asset allocation recommendations based on market regimes 26:58 - Analysis of where we are in the liquidity cycle and future projections 31:49 - Why China needs to devalue against gold and implications for US policy 37:49 - The growing global debt burden and limited options for resolution43:43 - Why the Fed must expand its balance sheet by mid-2025 48:48 - Tariffs as a negotiating tool rather than an end goal 50:39 - Final advice: investors should consider adding resources/gold to portfolios as protection during uncertain times
