Money Metals' Weekly Market Wrap Podcast

Greg Weldon of Weldon Financial, discusses a range of topics, including how he sees a big shift occurring in global geopolitics where more and more countries around the world are telling the U.S. to mind its own business -- and how U.S. elitism is driving more and more countries to team up with BRICS countries. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Gold has basked in the spotlight in recent months, and while silver is up by roughly the same amount in percentage terms this year, most investors feel it has underperformed. But as host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Midweek Memo, technical analysis reveals an extremely bullish pattern emerging in the silver market. Coupled with strong fundamentals, Mike argues there's an extremely strong upside case for silver.

In this episode, he also discusses a shift in silver demand from the West to the East, similar to a pattern we've seen in gold. 

This week, Chris Powell of the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee, gives an explanation of why governments want to keep a lid on precious metals prices, how the weaponization of the dollar has become a very dangerous policy for the U.S. government, and also makes the case that the healthy rise in the price of gold over the past 25 years is a serious indictment against central banks and an indication of how efforts to limit gold’s gains have been less and less successful. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Perspective matters.

Something you see up close can appear very different if you step back and look at it from a distance.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey steps back and examines Federal Reserve monetary policy over three decades, providing a different perspective on the trajectory of inflation and the economy than you probably get from mainstream financial media.

In this episode, Mike also dives deep into the most recent central bank gold buying data and what's driving it.

We live in a microwave world. But the economy is roasting in a slow cooker.

In this episode of the Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey talks about modern news media and the struggle to make sense of a slowly unfolding economy in a world where headlines drive decision-making. Along the way, he maps out some of the fundamentals he sees underlying today's economy. He goes on to talk about Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech and the trajectory of monetary policy in a broader economic context, why more inflation is in the pipeline, and the...

Economist Daniel Lacalle, professor of Global Economy at IE Business School in Madrid, offers his well-studied insights on the state of global inflation, how that inflation has become the accepted policy by central planners around the world, and gives us one of the best explanations about how governments benefit from this and use it to stay in power and control the masses. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Everybody seems to think the Federal Reserve just about has price inflation under control. As Money Metals' Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey explains, it doesn't. And it won't. That's because price inflation is the Fed's stated policy. He also talks about the recent record-breaking run for gold and why this bull likely still has legs.

There are a lot of dumb ideas out there, especially when it comes to economics and investing. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey covers some dumb things that grabbed his attention this week including the notion that gold is "a useless metal," Kamala Harris's plan to deal with inflation, and minting a $1-trillion coin to deal with the national debt.

Exclusive interview with Dr. Peter Earle -- Senior Economist at the American Institute of Economic Research. Join Money Metals' Mike Maharrey and Dr. Earle as they dive into the health of the U.S. economy, the lack of quality jobs that have been created, and the fallacy of the supposed soft landing. Mike and Peter also discuss how the recent wave of inflation has driven many out there, especially young people, to turn to gold and silver as a solution to combat these inflationary woes. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to...

There was complete panic as stock markets melted down on Monday, but on Tuesday, it was as if everything was fine. So, was it just an overreaction to a few isolated factors? Or was it a premonition? On this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey dissects the big selloff in both stocks and gold. What caused it? What happened to gold being a safe haven? And what can we expect next from the Federal Reserve? 

This week we interviewed Michael Pento of Pento Portfolio Strategies. Michael covers a range of topics, including the evisceration of the middle class, the unsustainable debt levels and debt servicing costs we’ve reached in this country and how he – as an investment advisor – looks at markets and aims to capitalize on all of the market chaos. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Will the Fed signal interest rate cuts with the July FOMC meeting? That's the question on everybody's mind. But interest rates are really a sideshow in this Fed drama. The real action is on the Fed balance sheet.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains what's going on with the balance sheet, why it matters, and what it tells us about the likely trajectory of price inflation and the economy. He also touches on a new milestone for the national debt.

This week, join us for a conversation with Money Metals CEO Stefan Gleason. Stefan reveals some juicy details of Money Metals’ new, much larger depository which just opened in Idaho.

You don't know what you don't know.

And that can be a big problem if you're an investor or a central planner.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey talks about the "knowledge problem" and explains why it, along with hubris, is the Achilles heel of central planning. He applies this truth specifically to Federal Reserve monetary policy with the help of an interesting history lesson. 

Gold hit a new all-time high Tuesday after Jerome Powell gave some indications that the Federal Reserve is getting closer to actually cutting rates.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey analyzes the record-breaking rally, and puts Powell's comments and rate cut mania into context. He also touches on market reaction to the Trump assassination attempt.

This week we interview the Silver Guru, and hear his take on the current market conditions, why we should be skeptical of the inflation numbers the government is feeding us, a breakdown of the gold to silver ratio and what to expect in the metals during the second half of 2024. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

We talk a lot about silver but there is another white metal that often gets lost in the shadows - platinum. In this week's Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey talks about the platinum market and explains why there are reasons to be bullish on the other white metal. He also talks about Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's testimony on Capitol Hill.

Government officials and media pundits keep trying to tell you that inflation isn't really that bad. In fact, the economy is great! You just don't realize how good you have it! In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey takes on the myth that it's not that bad. In fact, he argues that it's probably worse than you think.

In this episode, he also overviews the most recent central bank gold buying data. 

Mike Maharrey and Axel Merk discuss why the economy has fared a bit better than many expected, interest rates and whether or not the Fed has slayed the inflation dragon, and how all of this will affect the prices of the metals. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

If you listen to the mainstream financial media, you might think gold is a horrible investment and should generally be avoided. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey compares these mainstream myths with gold's market realities. As it turns out, gold has historically performed much better than you've been led to believe.

Join Mike Maharrey and Tom DiLorenzo, as they discuss the real beneficiaries of all of the inflation continually created by the Federal Reserve, how our monetary policy harms savers and
the elderly and also why gold and silver should be viewed not necessarily as an investment but more as insurance, and why everyone should own this financial insurance. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

During this inflationary cycle, gold tended to sell off with any hot inflation news. Conversely, mainstream and institutional investors tended to buy when inflation appeared to be cooling. Does this prove gold really isn't an inflation hedge? In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey probes this question. He concludes the proof is in the pudding.

In this episode, Mike also gives an overview of last week's Federal Reserve meeting and the central bank's miserable track record on projecting the trajectory of monetary policy. 

This week, Mike Maharrey talks with Greg Weldon of Weldon Financial. Greg breaks down the latest action in the gold and silver market, and he gives us some clues about what to expect for the rest of the year. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

There was a big selloff in gold and silver last Friday sparked by a couple of news items. In this episode of Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains that it was a perfect example of the markets overreacting to the news of the day while ignoring the underlying dynamics in the economy. Along the way, he touches on the May jobs report and the Chinese gold-buying pause. 

Later on in today’s program, we have an important update on Money Metals’ efforts to enact pro-sound money laws across America.  So, stick around for an interview with our own Jp Cortez, coming up after this week’s market update. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Gold has had a nice run over the last few months and it's garnered a lot of attention. Silver has kind of gotten lost in the shadow of gold's shine. But as host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, people should be paying attention to silver. It has outperformed gold in this gold bull market and there are plenty of reasons to believe the silver bull has a lot of leg left.

This week, Money Metals’ own Mike Maharrey and Peter for terrific back-and-forth commentary on a range of topics including why the Fed is like your neighbor who steals your gasoline. Peter also makes a very good case for why he is so optimistic for America, despite all of our current issues. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

The Federal Reserve can't seem to get a handle on price inflation. It vacillates back and forth between dovish and hawkish, raising hopes for interest rate cuts one week and dashing them the next. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey ponders whether the Fed's lack of success on the inflation front is due to incompetence or if it's on purpose. Or maybe both?

This week, Money Metals Podcast has an exclusive interview with Chris Ritchie, the president of SilverCrest Metals.

After the latest CPI report, the mainstream declared price inflation dead and put interest rate cuts back on the table. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey breaks down the data and reveals that the eulogy might be premature. In fact, he thinks it's more likely we have zombie inflation that will never die.

Some people will tell you there is no sense owning gold or silver because the government will just take it from you. They base this notion on FDR's gold confiscation order in 1933. But the truth is that gold confiscation didn't go as well as the government hoped. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains the gold confiscation order, why the government wanted everybody's gold and why the confiscation scheme fell flat.

 As inflation continues to put the squeeze on consumers, precious metals markets are back on the move. Also, this week's exclusive interview is with Ken Silva, investigative journalist with Headline USA. Ken and Mike Maharrey discuss America’s gold and why our federal officials don’t seem to want to give the public a clear answer on exactly how much the Fed and U.S. Treasury have. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

There's a significant shift in global power going on and most people don't even realize it. It's not military. It's economic. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains the movement of gold from West to East - particularly to China - and how it could change the geopolitical and economic landscape in significant ways. He also gives an overview of Q1 gold demand. 

This week, an exclusive interview with Saleha Mohsin.

The Federal Reserve and the U.S. government have a big problem. The Fed is trying to take down sticky price inflation but it can never win the fight. As host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, the national debt is part of the problem, and until that is under control, inflation won't be. And here's a dirty little secret -- the central bankers at the Fed know this.

Economic data comes in worse than expected, investor uncertainty is rattling markets. 

Meanwhile, Money Metals’ Mike Maharrey and Mark Skousen talk about the incredible resilience of gold and how and why central banks are snapping up gold like there’s no tomorrow. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Inflation is arguably the number one phenomenon influencing the economy today. It is driving markets and policy. But what (or who) caused it?

People point at many culprits from greedy corporations to "Putin's price hikes." But in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains why the blame is being misplaced. He identifies the real culprit and explains the root cause of the confusion.

This week, Money Metals’ Mike Maharrey talks to Peter Krauth, author of the book The Silver Bull, about a range of topics, including the slow death of the dollar, the future for silver and why he believes poor man’s gold is critical to our modern world. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Tax day was Monday. It was a painful day for some people, but for most, it was no big deal. After all, they got a nice refund. But as Money Metals' Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey explains, whether they realize it or not, they're getting taxed to death too. In fact, everybody is thanks to the inflation tax. 

In this episode, Mike also explains why last Friday's big selloff in silver may be good news for silver bulls. 

As inflation continues to come in hotter than expected, gold and silver markets continue to gain upside momentum, although today’s market action is very wild. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash? Get Started Here: https://www.moneymetals.com/gold-loan

The mainstream financial media seems to have a particular disdain for gold. Why is that?

In this episode of Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey gives some examples of mainstream folks dumping on gold and offers some theories as to why they always seem to think it's time to sell the yellow metal - no matter what.

He also offers a little food for thought for people who think that just because there hasn't been a financial or economic crisis yet there won't be one.

Another week, another record high for gold. And an exclusive interview with Corey Maita from MintID. Money Metals’ Mike Maharrey talks to Corey about how he has used unique technologies and innovation to fill gaps in the retail bullion market and how he’s created products in direct response to counterfeiting concerns. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

The national debt has spiraled to nearly $34.6 trillion. It's easy to point out that this is the problem. But what are we going to do about it? Answering that question isn't so simple.

But as host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, there is a blueprint we could follow to address the spending and the debt. Thomas Jefferson gave it to us. The question is whether anybody in Washington D.C. has the courage to implement it.

In this episode, Mike also talks about an unusual dynamic in the...

Well, we’re seeing another big move in the gold market. The monetary metal reached a new record high on Thursday to close out this holiday-shortened trading week. |

We'd be better off with sound money. But how do we get there?

It's a political question, and unless they are well-funded, most people feel pretty powerless when it comes to making change through the political process. 

Maybe that's because we need a better approach.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek memo, host Mike Maharrey presents an alternative - a bottom-up approach that avoids Washington D.C. He presents this strategy in the context of policy to promote sound money.

Mike also discusses the recent Fed meeting.

As the Federal Reserve confirms plans to cut interest rates later this year, Jay Powell’s shifty stance on inflation has left many Fed watchers scratching their heads – and others crying foul.

You've almost certainly heard of Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme. He was sentenced to 150 years in prison for running it. Well, as Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, Joe Biden is overseeing an even bigger Ponzi scheme - the national debt.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, Mike puts the national debt into perspective, explains how it's a Ponzi scheme, reveals the ramifications, and argues that despite most people's apathy about the debt, it really does matter to you.

The United States has weaponized the dollar, leveraging it to achieve foreign policy objectives. But is the U.S. playing with fire? Is it setting itself up for significant blowback? In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains how the U.S. has turned the dollar into a weapon and the risk it takes by using its privilege as the issuer of the reserve currency to bend other countries to its will.

Gold and silver are often disparaged as "useless" or "barbarous relics" by investors and economists. But as Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals'Midweek Memo, gold and silver are real money. He argues that a return to sound money would help reign in out of control government spending and constant currency depreciation, and he offers some strategies to move in that direction. 

Well, as another potential government shutdown looms, precious metals markets continue to consolidate.

The Federal Reserve is between a rock and a hard place. It needs to cut interest rates because this debt-riddled economy can’t function in a high-rate environment. But it can’t plausibly cut rates with price inflation still far above its target. As Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of Money Metals’ Midweek Memo, the Fed is damned if it does and damned if it doesn’t.

We live in a strange world where good economic news is perceived as bad, and bad economic news is good. In this episode of Midweek Money Metals’ Memo, host Mike Maharrey provides some examples of this strange phenomenon, and then explains why this is going on. It all boils down to the market’s addiction to the drug of easy money. Along the way, Mike talks about the January jobs report, the most recent Federal Reserve meeting, and a questionable assertion by Fed chair Jerome Powell.

After a sluggish January for precious metals, gold and silver markets saw a rally during the first day of February trading, only to see it reverse here today on the 2nd day of the month, after a strong U.S. jobs report, to continue the lackluster performance we’ve seen in early 2024. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

The government and the Federal Reserve broke the economy and we have to buy it!

Things seem OK on the surface. GDP looks good and there seems to be plenty of jobs. But the economy is sliding toward a crisis. It's just a matter of time.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains how and when the Fed along with the government broke the economy, and talks about one sector where the damage might manifest itself first.

Did you know inflation is on purpose? 

Government people would never admit this out loud, but inflation is a tax. They need inflation in order to maintain the borrow and spend system they've set up. 

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains the inflation tax, how it is levied, and why. 

As the stock market flirts with new highs, precious metals markets may be putting in a near-term bottom. Also, we’ll hear an interview with David Morgan of The Morgan Report.

On Tuesday, Fed Governor Chris Waller delivered a speech hinting inflation wasn't beat and rate cuts might not come as quickly as hoped. The markets threw a tantrum. This is called “open-mouth operations.” But as Money Metals’ Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode, what the Federal Reserve does, and the economic context they do it in is much more important than what the Fed people say.

The economy is great! The Federal Reserve beat inflation and is now guiding the economy to a "soft landing." 

At least that's the mainstream narrative.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey argues that things really aren't fine. He explains that the Fed broke the economy a long time ago and it's only a matter of time before this clunker leaves us all stranded on the side of the road.

As the Christmas holiday approaches, bulls are celebrating some continued strength in gold and silver markets. And the big institutions that hold short positions on futures exchanges will not want to see gold post a headline-grabbing close above $2,100 an ounce for 2023.  When gold surged above that level in overseas futures trading two weeks ago, it got abruptly slammed back down before U.S. markets opened. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Gold had posted a new all-time closing high on a monthly as well as a weekly basis last week.

As markets reopen following the Thanksgiving holiday, investors are feeling thankful that interest rates are no longer rising.

As financial markets gyrate, investors are finding safe haven in precious metals. The stock market sold off on Thursday on interest rate fears.
