Egon von Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg follow the trail from debt disasters and corporate bond bubbles to Bitcoin speculation vs. physical gold as the only true instrument of wealth preservation. Egon opens with the omni-important and omni present topic of global debt risk.

The reasons for recommending gold as the ultimate form of wealth preservation cannot be fulfilled by Bitcoin. I have stated many times that BTC could be a spectacular investment and go to $1 million as for example Raoul Pal (RealVision) advocates. On the other hand, in my view, BTC could go to zero...

What ordinary investors don’t realise is that they will in the next few years be ambushed by what to them is an invisible enemy. This will initially involve total debasement of the currency, whether it is dollars, euros, pounds or yen. No they can’t all go down together against each other. But they...

Your best friend and protector in this ignominious company of bubble assets and falling currencies are precious metals in the form of physical gold and silver. But please ignore PAPER gold and silver (including ETFs) which one day will be worthless. On the opposite side of the collapsing dollar stan...

The stock markets look strong, gold is weakening. Problems have not been solved, but with vaccination news the markets are moved. Buffett sells a part of his Barrick shares and causes uncertainty. And the WEF speaks of a "Great Reset".

Gold would obviously be life saving during the hyperinflation but also be the only form of real money during the deflationary implosion as fiat money in the system disappears or becomes inaccessible.

In my 50+ years as an investor, I have never seen such an obvious and attractive way to both preserve and enhance wealth as in the precious metals sector.

Egon discusses the signals emanating from the gold and silver markets throughout this COVID arc, which has seen a continued and steady tailwind for precious metals in the backdrop of the entirely abnormal yet ongoing currency devaluation policies of the major central banks. Despite expected pullback...

The US election has finally taken place. During the campaign, both candidates have totally avoided the critical issue that will bring the US down in the next four years. The election campaign has been ugly but totally avoided the monumental problem facing the American people.

Egon von Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg respectfully discuss the available facts regarding COVID data and the viral impact on global economies as large parts of the EU brace for more lockdown measures.

The world will experience a LIFTOFF in markets of gigantic proportions. This will be the grand finale of this financial era. It will involve inflationary liquidity injections of proportions never seen before in history and lead to a massive explosion in many asset markets. Most investment assets wil...

In this interview Egon von Greyerz answers viewer questions. Gold continues to correct, but mining shares send positive signals. China and Russia are buying a lot of gold and their power is growing. Do they even have 100,000 tons of gold each? A well-connected author asserts this. Digital currencies...

As global central banks’ balance sheets are exploding, with disastrous consequences, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) stands out as the “biggest hedge fund” and speculator in the world. Its balance sheet is over $1 trillion or 136% of Swiss GDP. The Fed balance sheet is 35% of US GDP.

In this interview, Egon von Greyerz speaks to Tom Bodrovics from Palisade Radio about the cyclical and repetitive nature of the current economic situation and shares his concerns about increasing debt and central banks’ response.

As demand for gold increases, silver demand will grow substantially as we have seen in 2020. Silver has always been seen as the poor man’s gold and as gold prices will become too expensive for many investors, they will instead buy silver.

Egon von Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg discuss the cold math of global debt and declining GDP. Given such facts, they address and explain the growing disconnect between a faltering global economy and central bank supported markets. Matthew and Egon then exchange thoughts on how it all ends.

You have seen this year incredible money creation around the world by central banks along with the massive debt increases. We are now entering into the exponential phase of this financial system. We are seeing unlimited money printing, helicopter money like Ben Bernanke called it. Then we are going...

The Chinese understand the long game and they have infinite patience. They have always known that they never needed to attack the US, financially or militarily. Because China has invariably understood that the US would self-destruct.
