Episode U.S. Has Reached ‘Choose Your Poison’ Moment: Save the Dollar or Save Treasuries | Gromen & Makori Cover

Beschreibung

Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief of Miles Franklin Media, sits down with Luke Gromen, Founder & President of FFTT LLC, for a deep-dive into what he believes is becoming an unavoidable monetary breaking point for the United States. Gromen warns that the U.S. may soon face a historic “choose your poison” moment: save the dollar or save the Treasury market. As the Iran conflict, rising oil prices, inflation pressures, and sovereign debt stress converge, he argues policymakers may ultimately be forced to inject liquidity into an inflation spike – weakening the dollar to keep the financial system functioning. In this episode of The Real Story with Michelle Makori: - Why the U.S. may have to choose between saving the dollar or Treasuries - The Iran war’s impact on inflation, oil, and sovereign debt markets - Why Luke Gromen says “the release valve becomes the dollar” - Gold’s growing role as a neutral reserve asset - Why Gromen believes gold could rise 5X-10X  - The possibility of gold being revalued against oil - Why central banks continue aggressively buying gold - Trump’s China negotiations and the future of the dollar system - Bitcoin’s role in the coming monetary resetYou can sign up for our newsletter here: https://milesfranklin.com/sign-up/   Follow Michelle Makori on X: https://x.com/MichelleMakori         Follow Miles Franklin Media on X: https://x.com/MilesFranklinCo   Follow Luke Gromen on X: https://x.com/LukeGromen Subscribe to Luke’s research here: https://fftt-llc.com/ [https://fftt-llc.com/]  Luke’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/LukeGromenFFTTLLC [https://www.youtube.com/c/LukeGromenFFTTLLC]  👍 Like, 🔔 Subscribe, and Stay Informed Join Miles Franklin Media for expert interviews, market insights, and real-time coverage of gold, silver, Bitcoin, and global economics.

Episode This Is What Happens If Fort Knox Gets Audited | Alasdair Macleod & Michelle Makori (Pt 2/2) Cover

This Is What Happens If Fort Knox Gets Audited | Alasdair Macleod & Michelle Makori (Pt 2/2)

Part 2 of 2: Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief of Miles Franklin Media, sits down with economist, monetary historian, and precious metals expert Alasdair Macleod to discuss what he believes could be the biggest threats facing the global financial system. Macleod explains why he believes the world is approaching a critical turning point for fiat currencies, how years of debt accumulation and monetary expansion have weakened confidence in the global monetary system, and why the next few years could bring significant economic and social disruption. The conversation also explores the implications of a potential Fort Knox audit, why China and Russia may be in a stronger position than many investors realize, the outlook for gold and silver, central bank gold accumulation, and the future of the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency. Alasdair warns that if confidence in government finances and fiat currencies continues to deteriorate, the consequences could extend far beyond financial markets, impacting living standards, food security, and geopolitical stability.

Episode The Silver Supply Shock Nobody Sees Coming | Alasdair Macleod & Michelle Makori (Pt. 1/2) Cover

The Silver Supply Shock Nobody Sees Coming | Alasdair Macleod & Michelle Makori (Pt. 1/2)

Part 1 of 2: Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief, Miles Franklin Media, interviews Alasdair Macleod, economist, monetary historian, and publisher of Macleod Finance Substack. Is silver on the verge of a major breakout? Alasdair Macleod believes the silver market is facing a powerful convergence of forces that investors may be underestimating. In Part 1 of this interview, Macleod argues that silver is being mispriced by markets despite persistent supply deficits, growing industrial demand, China’s aggressive silver accumulation, and mounting stresses in physical silver markets. Macleod explains why disruptions tied to the Strait of Hormuz and sulfuric acid supplies could impact global silver production, why China may have abandoned its long-standing policy of suppressing silver prices, and why he believes silver should increasingly be viewed as an industrial metal rather than simply a precious metal. In this episode Of The Real Story with Michelle Makori: - Why Alasdair Macleod believes silver is significantly mispriced - How the Iran conflict could affect global silver supply - China’s record silver imports and what they signal - Why silver was added to the U.S. critical minerals list - Growing demand from AI, data centers, EVs, solar and defense industries - Why China may no longer be exporting silver to global markets - Why Macleod believes silver could potentially double from current levels Follow Michelle Makori on X: https://x.com/MichelleMakori  Follow Miles Franklin Media on X: https://x.com/MilesFranklinCo Follow Alasdair Macleod on X: https://x.com/MacleodFinance [https://x.com/MacleodFinance] 👍 Like, 🔔 Subscribe, and Stay Informed Join Miles Franklin Media for expert interviews, market insights, and real-time coverage of gold, silver, Bitcoin, and global economics.

Episode He Called the Copper & Uranium Rally – Here’s His Next Big Bet | Lobo Tiggre & Michelle Makori Cover

He Called the Copper & Uranium Rally – Here’s His Next Big Bet | Lobo Tiggre & Michelle Makori

Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief, Miles Franklin Media, interviews Lobo Tiggre, Founder & Editor of IndependentSpeculator.com. Lobo Tiggre correctly called the rallies in copper and uranium. Now, he’s taking a very different approach. Lobo says he’s sold all of his gold and silver mining stocks and is sitting on an unprecedented 80% cash position as he prepares for what he believes could be a major market opportunity. While many investors remain bullish on gold, silver, and mining stocks, Lobo argues that the risk of a significant market event is materially higher than normal. He explains why he believes gold could experience a sharp correction before its next major move higher, why silver still has more upside than gold, and why uranium remains his highest-conviction opportunity in the resource sector. Lobo also shares his outlook on copper, oil, and uranium. In this episode of The Real Story with Michelle Makori: - Why Lobo is holding an unprecedented 80% cash position - The risk of a major market event and why liquidity matters - Could gold experience a 50% correction? - Why he sold all of his gold and silver mining stocks - Gold outlook: consolidation or the next leg higher? - Why silver may still outperform gold - Copper’s long-term supply deficit and AI demand - The key date to watch for copper markets - Why uranium remains his highest-conviction commodity - Contrarian opportunities in lithium and nickel - How Lobo is preparing for the next major buying opportunity You can sign up for our newsletter here: https://milesfranklin.com/sign-up/ [https://milesfranklin.com/sign-up/]   👍 Like, 🔔 Subscribe, and Stay Informed Join Miles Franklin Media for expert interviews, market insights, and real-time coverage of gold, silver, Bitcoin, and global economics.
