Ron Paul: Inflation Nightmare & The Fed's 2% CPI Pipe Dream


The posturing that inflation is such a "surprise" is typical, but shameful nevertheless. No one should be surprised that prices are skyrocketing after the government spent many trillions that it doesn't have. 

Further, it was only able to spend those trillions because the Fed counterfeited the money out-of-thin-air. Today's economic suffering could not be more predictable.

Real Vision Finance: When Will This Volatility End?


“You don’t buy when there’s ‘blood in the streets,’” notes Darius Dale. “You buy when there’s a catalyst to clean it up.” U.S. equity indexes are bleeding today, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average sliding below the 30,000 mark. The question is, what is that catalyst, and when will it reveal itself? 

Darius, the founder and CEO of 42 Macro, joins Real Vision’s Maggie Lake to answer that question and to talk about today’s price action in the aftermath of the Federal Reserve’s biggest rate hike since 1994. 

According to Darius, “This trending volatility won’t end until the liquidity cycle inflects and speeds up the growth cycle bottom.” Mortgage rates have already exploded past 6%, a sign tighter monetary policy is already impacting consumers. 

How far will the Fed go to catch inflation? “Inflation KILLS societies,” says Darius. We also hear from Mark Ritchie II about how to manage risk in a volatile environment.

Bob Moriarty: "It's Only Just Started" - End Of The Empire


"It's only just started. The financial markets are so out of balance, it's going to get worse than anybody's dream," says financial author, marine, and naval aviator Bob Moriarty. 

The Federal Reserve "has painted itself into a corner." The only options going forward are hyperinflation or a market crash. Moriarty sees both may happen.

Ron Paul: Woke Capitalism Is An Economic Disaster In The Making


Every form of authoritarianism has been tried (many times over) in an attempt to turn free human beings into obedient robots. 

The failure rate is 100%. "Woke" Capitalism, with "ESG scores" for corporations, and "social credit scores" for individuals, are merely the newest iteration. 

They too are destined for disaster. The costliest lesson in all of economic and political history is that freedom always prevails.

David Brady: The Dollar is Scheduled for Demolition


Tom welcomes back David Brady, CEO, and Co-Founder of Global Pro Traders. 

David discusses the changes that have occurred in the markets since his last appearance on the show nearly two years ago. 

He believes another massive rally is coming for gold and that the Fed will reverse course. 

Countries never chose to default they always inflate their debts away. 

Markets today are centrally managed. What we have is not free-market capitalism.

The Big Conversation: Is Inflation Spreading?


This week Real Vision’s Roger Hirst uses Refinitiv’s best-in-class data to look at the recent break out in crude oil prices and the ongoing squeeze in agricultural products. 

US inflation may have peaked in H1, but that doesn’t mean it will quickly drop back to ‘normal’ levels. 

Furthermore, if it continues to spread from durable goods to essentials such as food and energy, then the Fed may have an even harder job on its hands.
