The US dollar crushed nearly every other currency in 2022, though it's off nearly 10% from last year's highs now.
While much debate currently centers around whether the dollar will weaken further will or resume its run higher in 2023, today's guest is more concerned about how much longer it has left as the pre-eminent currency in the world.
When Alasdair Macleod, head of Research for GoldMoney, was on this program last, he made a dire prediction that the world's major fiat currencies were in the process of failing -- far faster than many were imagining.
He returns to the program today to update us on the latest details & timing of his outlook.

At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money. Each week we add new videos that provide you with access to the foremost specialists in investing, economics, the stock market, real estate and personal finance.
We offer exceptional interviews and explainer videos that dive deep into the trends driving today's markets, the economy, and your own net worth. We give you strategies for financial security, practical answers to questions like “how to grow my investments?”, and effective solutions for wealth building tailored to 'regular' investors just like you.
There’s no doubt that it's a very challenging time right now for the average investor. Above and beyond the recent economic impacts of COVID, the new era of record low interest rates, runaway US debt and US deficits, and trillions of dollars in monetary and fiscal stimulus stimulus has changed the rules of investing by dangerously distorting the Dow index, the S&P 500, and nearly all other asset prices. Can prices keep rising, or is there a painful reckoning ahead?
Let us help you prepare your portfolio just in case the future brings one or more of the following: inflation, deflation, a bull market, a bear market, a market correction, a stock market crash, a real estate bubble, a real estate crash, an economic boom, a recession, a depression, or another global financial crisis.

I work in a Factory, as does my two younger brothers and my younger sister's husband, we all work in the same factory. My point is, or should be clear, people who work in factories aren't exactly considered wealthy. Since we're not "wealthy" I think we make a pretty good example in that we purchase gold and silver bullion on a bi weekly basis, or every payday. 1 gram bars or gold and or silver maple leafs. Last payday was 5 X 1gram bars of gold, shipped through the Canadian Post Office because I prefer the Federal Government taking responsibility for our shipments rather than some guy in a truck. Of course they are shipped in plain boxes with different companies listed on the shipping receipt, such as "Jerry's Stone Cutting Corp", that's not it by the way but close enough so you get the point. At the end of April I cashed out all the above family members pensions, RRSPs, etc and we purchased bullion, a lot of bullion. In conclusion, yes you can, purchase bullion, no matter who you are, I also hit the local pawn shop in my small town. What has happened to our collective wealth in the last nine months? Nothing, nothing has happened to our collective wealth this last year, meanwhile, plenty of people we work with lost a lot on those pension/RRSPs through our collective provider. Worse yet for those hit with the crypto/bitcoin bug, but our wealth is still sitting here collecting dust, which is perfect. Keep in mind, if gold is revalued or the currencies collapse, my answer is "what gold"?, "what capital gains"? Good luck folks.

Enjoyed the conversation very much, but I do feel he has a horse in the race, given his position. One thing he fails to mention, is that if you buy coin, say a 1oz Britannia@£1600, the Government can turn around an legally demand it back at face value £100... In a total fiat collapse, this will almost certainly happen, as they'll need the 'real money', and heck £100 wouldn't buy you a slice of bread! Other than that concern, I like what I heard....heck Govt. can steal what it, he who makes the rules, and all.

Thank you, thank you for saying this! I’ve been trying to figure my way through this! Do you have any thoughts for the best thing(s) to invest in (or have on hand) if this is the case? Besides things like having debts paid off having animals, food stashed and stocking barter items. I spent hours yesterday trying to figure this one out, to kind of come down to that I couldn’t really come up with anything really good. I would so appreciate your reply!

I agree with the financial analysis of Alasdair completely but I am afraid he is not in sync with the realities of the Ukraine war. Western military analysts like Scott Ritter and Col.

It is a matter of time when the West will eventually give up in Ukraine.

and also if “they” regulate it into oblivion as seems likely, your “cold storage” bitcoin with your “private key” is still absolutely worthless. But they can regulate my hard coin gold all day long and if I hide it or bury it well enough, and they are not able to confiscate, it will still always have REAL monetary value even if “they” were to “outlaw” gold in the same way that “they” are going to try to “outlaw” and-or centralize the very very good aspects of bitcoin and decentralized digital currency. And that, my dear good sire, is why I have never yet invested in bitcoin or any other supposed decentralized digital coin. And certainly, such is my own loss for such decision, in theory.

My personal hedge against Armageddon is a hedge. (Juniper might be nice?) It seems that if one hoards gold and keeps it in a bank vault, the Government May confiscate it with some kind of new ‘Executive Order’. I don’t remember voting for any ‘executives’, but get them elected and this is what they collectively become? One friend told me that he knew farmers who buried thousands of Canadian Currency in their back field and that was their ‘safety net’. They haven’t touched it since 1952 or such. Can you imagine the loss in buying power? Gold would have been better-to be sure…

@petersinclair3997 Жыл бұрын

Provided your Government doesn’t confiscate your gold and make it illegal to trade in gold. In 1933, the US acquired gold at USD 21 per ounce and floated the metal at USD 35 per ounce. Agree, gold is a good hedge against short and medium volatility in the currency market, where one needs to be liquid.

The value of the USD in gold terms has gone down by an average of 4%, annualized since 1950. So if you held dollars paying 4% interest you would have exactly the same gold equivalent, assuming you had no cost of holding gold. 4% is about the average return for treasury bonds, and half the return of the SP500 in any multi decade period, but with much less timing risk since gold tends to swing wildly off the mean for long periods of time.
