The Wind That Will Topple the Economic House of Cards: SchiffGold Friday Gold Wrap 02.02.18
In this week's Off The Cuff podcast, Chris and Mish Shedlock discuss:
Suddenly, volatility is rearing it's snarling head everywhere. The US dollar has plunged. Interest rates are marching higher than they have in many years. Cryptocurrency prices have been more than cut in half from their early January highs. Now, even stocks are beginning to wobble...
For years now, one of the most crowded and "easy" trades for making profit has been to short volatility. Trillions are still in play on that bet. With volatility now rising, that bet increasingly risks suddenly becoming a bad one -- which would unleash a tremendous volume of losses across the financial markets.
As Mish warns...
This hasn’t been a great week in the cryptocurrency world. Facebook announced it is banning all ads that promote cryptos, including Bitcoin. According to Zuck’s people, Facebook has to protect users from “financial products and services frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices.” By that rationale, Facebook should probably ban all political advertising. At any […]

Yellen Hands Off Stick of Dynamite to Jerome Powell

I belong to a podcaster mastermind group. It’s a group of experienced podcasters who are right in the thick of things. We had a guest on last week, Michael Harrison, owner of Talkers.com. He was very pessimistic about the future of terrestrial radio. Over the last 15 years, what used to be local independently owned radio stations have become part of massive radio station empires. This led to a decline in programming, especially local, and the rise of the bean counter. Management no longer listens to the radio shows that their companies must produce to succeed. Their only concern is cutting costs and paying off debt. They’re dinosaurs heading for the dustbin of history. Podcasters are poised to make great inroads because they are original, focus on their content and show production and they are flexible. Live radio and podcasts aren’t relevant unless they deal with breaking news. Otherwise, following the video model of YouTube and the DVR is where it’s at. People want to listen to their shows at their convenience, whether on their drive to work or when they’re at the gym working out. This is why the future belongs to podcasters.
