Tom welcomes back Peter Schiff, the CEO and Chief Economist of Euro Pacific Asset Management, Chairman of Schiff Gold, and host of Schiff Radio to the show. Peter discusses inflation, central banking policies, and the implications of stagflation on the economy. He emphasizes that inflation is fundamentally caused by an expansion in the money supply and credit, rather than rising prices alone. Schiff argues that the Federal Reserve's actions, including quantitative easing and low interest rates, have fueled inflation and exacerbated economic instability. Schiff critiques the government's handling of inflation, noting that it often deflects blame onto businesses or labor unions instead of addressing the root causes. He warns that continued deficit spending and debt accumulation will lead to higher inflation and potentially a financial crisis. Schiff also highlights the role of tariffs and trade policies in affecting prices and trade deficits, though he doubts their effectiveness in fundamentally altering the economic landscape. The discussion turns to gold and precious metals as a hedge against inflation. Schiff notes that despite record earnings from gold mining companies, investor sentiment remains cautious, with many preferring speculative assets like cryptocurrencies or AI stocks. He believes this presents an opportunity for investors to capitalize on undervalued gold mining stocks before prices rise significantly. Schiff also touches on the potential impact of rising interest rates in Japan and the yen carry trade, warning that unwinding these positions could disrupt global markets. Additionally, he discusses the role of central banks in buying gold as a form of portfolio insurance and predicts continued demand for precious metals as investors seek safe havens amid economic uncertainty.

Gold and precious metals offer protection against inflation, with mining stocks currently undervalued despite strong fundamentals. Economic instability and stagflation risks loom large, driven by debt, deficits, and ineffective monetary policies.

Peter is an economic forecaster and investment advisor influenced by the free-market Austrian School of economics. He is one of the few forecasters who accurately and publicly predicted the 2007 housing market collapse and subsequent 2008 financial crisis. His latest best-selling book, The Real Crash: America's Coming Bankruptcy - How to Save Yourself and Your Country, warns that the 2008 crisis was just the prelude to a larger sovereign debt crisis in the United States that may lead to a collapse of the US dollar. Peter recommends long-term investment in foreign markets with sound fiscal policies, as well as global commodities including buying gold, silver and other physical precious metals.

If you could just tax foreign countries, why not do that? Because they can't vote. It's preposterous. A tariff is a tax. It's a tax on the consumer for buying stuff. 100% of it is paid by consumers.

Start EVERY day the Chuck Norris Way with Morning Kick! Get the JOY discount on Morning Kick HERE: www.chuckdefense.com/JoyYears ago, I read a cartoon book that was brilliantly written, tackled complex economic principles in simple terms and completely changed my thinking about finance and markets. It was called ‘How An Economy Grows & Why It Crashes' by Peter Schiff. The book untangled many economic fallacies, cleared my thinking and helped explain the beauty of FREE markets.That was about ten years ago and ever since that formative experience, I have been trying to land an interview with Peter Schiff! Well, as you can imagine I am SO glad to finally welcome him today on the The Shannon Joy Show. It's been a long time coming and the timing is impeccable.Because, everyone senses that something is VERY wrong in our economy today.This election season features two political candidates who have completely abandoned even a semblance of fiscal responsibility. The numbers are astronomical, the debt-driven political promises are utterly ridiculous and it would all be laughable if it weren't so devastating.But alas, after 60 years of accelerating debt and reckless deficit spending, it seems like the the fat lady is about to sing for the American economic system and dollar supremacy.This puts you and your family in the crosshairs for financial devastation brought on by years of BAD economic policy from useless, cowardly and corrupt politicians.But you don't have to be a victim. You CAN take control and thrive amidst the chaos.I am honored to welcome the relentless truth-teller, Peter Schiff on the SJ Show today to learn about the economy, our financial system, why it is hopelessly broken and how we can survive the coming economic storm and hopefully be around to fix it in the future.______________________________________Show Resources:Get the book!'How and Economy Grows and Why it Crashes'https://www.amazon.com/How-Economy-Grows-Why-Crashes/dp/047052670XFollow Peter on Socials:@PeterSchiff on YouTube, Twitter/X, Instagram, FacebookPeter Schiff's Biography:Peter Schiff began his investment career as a financial consultant with Shearson Lehman Brothers, after having earned a degree in finance and accounting from U.C.
