Podcasts about speculators

Market speculation into commodities like Bitcoin and Crude oil pose dangerous risks during the best of times. Heading into a recession, the stakes are even higher. The temptation to participate during volatile periods is a psychological phenomenon that takes hold among casual investors who rarely realize when they’re part of an institutional con. When leveraged institutions are in desperate need of liquidity they’ll stop at nothing to game the system. In this episode, Max offers a cautionary tale of speculative behavior in the crude oil markets during the financial crisis that very few people even know about. He then connects it to the dangers posed to investors who dabble in digital currencies like Bitcoin, especially under a pro-crypto Trump administration. Access the episode resources.

Is George Soros a philanthropic visionary… or the shadow architect of a globalist empire? “Shadow Money: The Soros Conspiracy Files” plunges into the labyrinth of myths, money, and manipulation surrounding one of the most polarizing figures on Earth. Hosted by an investigative journalist and a geopolitical strategist, this explosive documentary-style podcast dissects Soros's meteoric rise from Holocaust survivor to billionaire “Great Speculator,” unraveling the tangled web of his hedge fund dominance, political kingmaking, and the conspiracy theories that paint him as a modern-day puppet master.Was Soros the invisible hand behind regime changes, economic collapses, and cultural revolutions? We'll expose never-before-seen financial records, clandestine meetings with world leaders, and whistleblower testimonies that blur the line between philanthropy and power plays. Dive into the dark heart of far-right fever dreams—the “Soros-funded migrant caravans,” “Antifa bankrolling,” and his alleged “Great Reset” agenda—while forensic economists and intelligence insiders separate fact from fiction. But this isn't just a hit job: Hear Soros in his own words through rare archival audio, and discover how his Open Society Foundations became both a beacon of hope and a lightning rod for rage.From his $10 billion “bet against the British pound” to whispers of a “deep state” alliance, Shadow Money doesn't just ask questions—it follows the money. Whether he's saint or saboteur, one thing's clear: Soros's influence is a ticking time bomb in the war for democracy's soul. Subscribe now—before the truth gets shorted.

In this special Mother's Day edition of The Sunday Roast (Sunday 30th March), we welcome back legendary investor Rick Rule, President and CEO of Rule Investment Media, for a wide-ranging conversation that dives deep into markets, commodities, global politics, and the mindset needed to navigate today's volatile landscape. Rick reflects on the dramatic changes in the U.S. under Trump's second term and what it means for investors worldwide. We talk lithium, gold, and silver, and Rick shares his thoughts on where real value lies in 2025—and who's best placed to find it. We also explore the difference between speculation and long-term investing, and end on a powerful note as Rick speaks about legacy, philanthropy, and the importance of giving back. All this, plus our usual round-up of the week's biggest market stories and movers.

Today, Paul provides a market update after three months of markets being unexpectedly disrupted by politics. Listen along as Paul shares why people who predict market returns are left in a state of turmoil, hoping or waiting for certain news to drop and unable to make any consistent predictions. “America First” investors are watching U.S. markets go down, but diversified investors still get to relax about money. Later in the episode, Paul shares one of the most ridiculous market indicators he's ever heard of and how market timers will grab onto anything to make predictions.   For more information about what we do or how we can help you, schedule a 15-minute call with us here: paulwinkler.com/call.

Tom welcomes back Alasdair Macleod, Head of Research at GoldMoney to discuss his insights into the silver market and its relationship with gold prices. He suggests that despite a seemingly undersupplied market, the price disparity between gold and silver does not reflect this reality. Macleod anticipates a significant shift in investor behavior once patience runs thin among those who have already bought into gold but yet to enter the silver market. The role of foreign investors, particularly central banks, in driving gold prices is highlighted. Macleod also emphasizes the importance of understanding the impact of the ongoing credit bubble on financial markets and encourages listeners to consider reducing their exposure to credit. Alasdair expresses his views on Donald Trump's impact on gold prices, citing increased foreign demand due to Trump's status as an inflationist and his executive orders. However, concerns over tariffs and potential economic repercussions remain. Macleod also touches upon historical examples of tariffs and interest rates and their relationship with an economy's purchasing power. He emphasizes the importance of understanding this connection for investors during the upcoming credit bubble. Throughout the conversation, Alasdair highlights the importance of considering global economic trends and various factors influencing gold and silver prices. He also discusses the role of speculators versus central banks in driving these markets and the potential for a significant shift once investor sentiment changes.

https://www.gentlemanspeculator.com/You heard right. The Reformed Financial Advisor Podcast? It's gone. Dead and buried. From now on, it's Gentleman Speculator. Cleaner. Sharp as a stiletto heel. Like Alain Delon's tailored slacks. Money is a tool. But this isn't about counting beans anymore. We're talking shadows, where the real power reveals itself. The true Zorro? It's William Lamport. And he doesn't just fight with a sword; he fights with secrets. Bruce Wayne's noblesse oblige? That's not rotten lefty philanthropy—it's blood, sweat, and munificence bestowed on a world that can't get clean.In this cesspool we call progress, a few old stories still have teeth - The Dark Knight, Finkle-McGraw, Holmes, and, Marlowe. Sharp enough to bite, vicious enough to remind us of the American myths we once knew.The truth? The answers are out there, somewhere between the rain-soaked streets of high finance and the dusted corridors of the liberal arts. It's all connected—sleuthing, speculating, playing the long game. And if you're not seeing the big picture, you're already yesterday's news.But don't expect an easy listen.

George Soros, often a figure shrouded in both mystique and controversy, is the subject of the documentary "The Great Speculator - The Mysterious Life of George Soros." Born in 1930 to a Hungarian family with a history of surviving adversity, Soros's early life was defined by the pragmatic survival lessons from his father, who had endured the horrors of World War I and the Nazi occupation of Hungary. These experiences ingrained in Soros a profound understanding of risk and survival, elements that later became cornerstones of his speculative financial strategies. The film delves into Soros's academic years at the London School of Economics where he was deeply influenced by the philosopher Karl Popper, shaping his views on market dynamics and the imperfection of knowledge. It follows his journey into the world of finance, where after a rocky start in London, he moved to New York, setting the stage for the establishment of his Quantum Fund. This fund became a vehicle for his speculative prowess, famously earning him a billion dollars during 1992's Black Wednesday by betting against the British pound. "The Great Speculator" not only explores Soros's financial ventures but also his complex personal and ideological evolution, highlighting his philosophical and philanthropic engagements later in life.(00:05) The documentary opens with a recount of George Soros earning a billion dollars during the Black Wednesday financial crisis in 1992 when the British government raised interest rates to 15% in a failed attempt to stabilize the pound.(01:43) It highlights George Soros's challenging childhood, born in 1930 to a father who was a prisoner of war during World War I and later taught Soros the art of survival, which proved crucial during the Nazi occupation of Hungary.(04:17) During World War II, the Soros family survived by using false identities and bribing authorities to evade Nazi persecution in Hungary, significantly impacting Soros's understanding of risk and survival strategies.(07:08) The narrative then shifts to Soros's academic journey at the London School of Economics, where he was influenced by philosopher Karl Popper, learning about the imperfection of knowledge and the concept of falsifiability, which shaped his investment strategies.(09:08) The documentary details Soros's early career in finance in London and New York, his struggle as a trader, and the eventual establishment of his Quantum Fund, which capitalized on market discrepancies and made significant profits by speculating on real estate investment trusts and other financial instruments.

Co-directors of forthcoming documentary Losing Puerto Rico, Nomiki Konst and Federico de Jesus break down how an unelected economic board and American tax policies have led to a massive housing crisis and skyrocketing prices.

Sources within the DEA have confirmed that rescheduling has been green-lit and is moving forward. Speculators have  been saying that this wouldn't happen until after the election, but it looks as though things are moving quicker than critics have been suggesting.

Surviving and Thriving in the Coming Crisis With Doug Casey Doug Casey has garnered a well-earned reputation for his erudite (and often controversial) insights into politics, economics, and investment markets. Doug is widely respected as one of the preeminent authorities on “rational speculation,” especially in the high-potential natural resource sector. Doug wrote the book on profiting from periods of economic turmoil: his book Crisis Investing spent weeks as #1 on the New York Times bestseller list and became the best-selling financial book of 1980 with 438,640 copies sold; surpassing big-caliber names, like Free to Choose by Milton Friedman, The Real War by Richard Nixon, and Cosmos by Carl Sagan. He has been a featured guest on hundreds of radio and TV shows, including David Letterman, Merv Griffin, Charlie Rose, Phil Donahue, Regis Philbin, Maury Povich, NBC News, and CNN; has been the topic of numerous features in periodicals such as Time, Forbes, People, and the Washington Post; and is a regular keynote speaker at FreedomFest, the world's largest gathering of free minds. Doug has lived in 10 countries and visited over 175. He currently spends most of his time in Argentina and Uruguay, and traveling to various dysfunctional hellholes. Today you're most likely to find him at La Estancia de Cafayate, an oasis tucked away in the high red mountains outside Salta, Argentina. Cafayate most resembles the isolating beauty of Bryce Canyon, Utah combined with the lush vineyards of Napa Valley. Residents enjoy economic and social freedoms not found in the US and some of the best wine and golf on the planet. Website Link: https://internationalman.com ================================================= Check out some of Doug's books! Speculator (High Ground Novels Book 1) The original International Man and #1 New York Times bestselling author Doug Casey joins forces with Dr. John Hunt to create a new type of hero. Charles Knight is young, but he knows right from wrong. He's well educated because he decided to drop out of high school, and considered college a misallocation of both his time and money. Instead, he reads and listens, works and creates. He figured out that you can't become a Renaissance Man by sitting in a classroom. Charles Knight is a modern Count of Monte Cristo, the sort of hero we haven't seen since Atlas Shrugged. He is a leader, but with no interest in leading. A soldier of fortune who tries to avoid fighting. He becomes rich, famous, powerful, loved–and hated. He changes the course of world history as he follows his code. Join Charles Knight on his quest to live a good life, an exotic life, a life of adventure. It all starts with Speculator. –This text refers to the paperback edition. Assassin: Book 3 of the High Ground Novels Charles Knight is released from an especially unpleasant stay in prison, only to rejoin a society overwhelmed by looting, riots, arson, viral panic, mob-think and economic decay . . . with a presidential election in the balance. The cronies are in charge, abetted by their media lackeys and political puppets. They'll do anything to get what they want. How can Charles stop the deadly crimes committed by those who control the law, print the money, and confuse the minds of the people? Crimes that push millions into poverty, servitude and ignorance. Will a highly unorthodox presidential candidate and a cryptocurrency network that turns the surveillance state on its head be enough to expose and defeat them? Or do some people just need to be killed? The cronies are moving fast. Charles Knight needs to move faster.

Russia's transnational crime syndicate uses our own weaknesses against us, to entrench their weaponized corruption. Take, for instance, the Act 22 tax loophole that lets rich Americans buy up land in Puerto Rico to avoid paying any money in federal taxes. It's called “trickle down theory,” but the locals call it gentrification and tax dodging. So why is RT (Russia Today) latching on to a grassroots campaign to close the Act 22 tax loophole threatening to turn Puerto Rico into a dangerous money-laundering vipers den, with no affordable housing? Could it be that Russia is trying to stop this movement by discrediting it?   Ringing the alarm on how the Act 22 tax loophole jeopardizes Puerto Rico's sovereignty and U.S. national security are Nomiki Konst, an activist and filmmaker, and Federico de Jesús, a public affairs consultant. They joined forces in Puerto Rico post-Hurricane Maria to launch "Losing Puerto Rico," a documentary-in-progress and movement by the same name against the Act 22 tax loophole. Konst, a longtime ally of Senator Bernie Sanders, chosen by Sanders to work on the unity commission for the DNC following the 2016 election, cut her teeth as an investigative journalist under Wayne Barrett, the first reporter to warn us about Trump. De Jesús, who helped lead Hispanic outreach in campaigns for President Barack Obama and Senator Harry Reid, focuses on human rights issues in Puerto Rico. They explain what's at stake with the Act 22 tax loophole, why Russia may have taken an interest, and their urgent advice for Biden on how to defeat Trump in the 2024 election, including how to win back Hispanic voters who have been trending Republican.    This week's bonus show, available to subscribers at the Truth-teller level or higher on Patreon, features the recording of the Gaslit Nation Make Art Workshop: The Business Side of Things, alongside the transcript.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 1025 published last July 11, 2018. Jason Hartman starts off the show from Croatia discussing the difference in investing when there are private companies involved versus when the government is involved. With private companies you know what you're going to get, they're going to follow supply & demand and try to maximize profits. With governments, however, they're much more of a wild card, which can make successfully investing more difficult.

Last week, the USDA lowered its projection for the 2022/2023 Brazilian soybean crop to 158.5 million tons due to a lack of rainfall. In contrast, the estimate for the 2022/2023 crop was increased by 3 million tons to 158 million tons. This adjustment reflects the agency's expectations for higher domestic demand for soybean meal and oil, potentially limiting exports of these products. Additionally, Argentina's return to normal export levels may pose challenges for Brazilian exports of soybean oil and meal. Safras also reduced its estimate for this season's Brazilian soybean crop to 151.4 million tons, further highlighting the challenging conditions faced by Brazilian soybean farmers.

READ THE TRANSCRIPT AT HTTP://PETERNAVARRO.SUBSTACK.COM Hi.  Peter Navarro here with this week's stock market wrap for the week ending December 8, 2023.  The market remains a gambler's roulette wheel rather than an intelligent speculator's poker game. Bulls on the long side continue to bet on a soft landing propelled by a series of rate cuts by the Fed come the new year.  They remain heartened by the continued, albeit slowing, move up of the markets – the S&P eked out a small gain for the week. Bears on the short side, like me I might add, see all manner of hazards that must inevitably, and sooner rather than later, catch up with Wall Street – persistently high inflation, equally persistent high interest rates that are slowly choking off interest rate sensitive sectors like autos and housing, a looming fiscal cliff, geopolitical hazards ranging from the Red Sea and Persian Gulf to the Straits of Taiwan, and so it goes. LISTEN FOR THE REST OF THE STORY.  AND PLEASE WRITE A REVIEW AND SHARE WITH A FRIEND
