Jonathan Newman joins Bob to discuss the debate between Austrians and MMTers on the origins of money.

The “locked in” YTM is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTM of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity, or if the issuer calls or defaults on the bond.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 1102, published last December 26, 2018. Jason Hartman takes today's post-Christmas episode to go over some of the news from one of the most news-filled holiday seasons he can remember. There's a clash going on right now between the government (mostly Trump) and the Fed, but is it really such a good idea to let a non-governmental organization have so much control over our money? Jason also looks at how the changing demand for debt is impacting real estate investors, as well as how getting rid of your outdated technology (like keys) can improve your self-management. Also, buy your tickets today for the upcoming Meet the Masters event in Southern California! Key Takeaways: 3:38 This is the most economically newsworthy filled Christmas Jason can remember 7:30 You may not think it's a good idea to have the government interferring with the Fed, but do you really want our currency run by an independent, unaudited thing like the Fed? 13:04 What does the change in demand for debt mean to us as real estate investors? 17:32 Has there been collusion in EU bonds? 23:14 Why you should be using smart home technology Website: www.JasonHartman.com/Masters www.JasonHartman.com/Properties Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class: Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
Professor Steve Hanke reveals why he believes a recession will strike the second half of 2024 and how you can protect your portfolio. In this episode of Wealthion, host Andrew Brill welcomes back Steve Hanke, Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University and former advisor to President Reagan. Professor Hanke provides his in-depth analysis of the current economic landscape, breaks down the contraction of the money supply, rising unemployment, and the likelihood of an impending recession. Hanke critiques the Federal Reserve's recent actions, describing them as significant monetary blunders that have set the stage for an inevitable downturn. He explains how the Fed's overreaction to early 2020 events led to an unprecedented growth in the money supply, followed by a severe contraction, signaling a challenging period ahead. The conversation also dives into the rising national debt, currently at $35 trillion and increasing, and its potential consequences for future generations.

#RafiFarber - Money Supply Plunges as Repos Surge to $2 Trillion a Night Gold and silver took a rest this week, but then again so did the entire commodity complex. The money supply statistics are in for April and they show the second greatest 2-week plunge in M2 ever recorded. This is happening as the repo market bursts through $2 trillion being traded every night, much of it to fund an overcrowded basis trade in 2Y Treasuries. These are two titanic forces that will collide at some point soon, and when they do, we all know what happens. More dollars come flying out of the Eccles Building at light speed, is what happens.

In this episode of Palisades, Tom Bodrovics welcomes back metals analyst David Jensen to discuss the volatile gold and silver markets, with a focus on the London market's reliance on promissory notes for trading and its potential physical supply issues leading to risks of default. They also touch upon the large trading volumes in London, deficits in the silver market, increasing demand from China, and concerns over retail investors influencing silver prices due to ETF manipulation and rehypothecation. David shares his perspective on factors affecting the silver market during the 2020-2021 silver squeeze, including inventory disappearance in China, Shanghai exchange's influence, potential catalysts like central banks buying gold or conflicts, and the City of London's involvement in a longstanding global gold and silver fraud. The conversation further explores the impact of various factors on gold and silver markets, including concerns about transparency regarding lease rates, central bank sourcing of metal, and potential consequences for major banks if they cannot cover contract losses. Overall, Jensen emphasizes the importance of understanding the significance of physical supply issues in the metals market and staying informed to avoid ignoring important matters.

When I interviewed today's guest expert back in August of 2021, when inflation was 5%, he made the bold prediction that the CPI would eventually hit 9%, a prediction that seemed unthinkable at the time -- but it indeed proved true less than a year later. He then called for inflation to moderate substantially, which it also then did. Where does he see inflation headed from here? To find out, as well as hear his latest outlook on the economy, recession risk, social stability and the markets, we welcome back Steve Hanke professor, of applied economics at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?
