In this episode of The Peter Schiff Show, Peter Schiff delves into the stark contrast between the perceived strength of the U.S. economy and its underlying fragility. Listeners will gain valuable insights as Peter analyzes the gold market, Bitcoin, and economic realities that challenge political narratives. The discussion also touches on the implications of the […]

Peter recently Ed Siddell on The Retirement Trainer podcast to walk listeners through how capital flows, political promises, and central bank policy shape the dollar — and why none of it bodes well for the unprepared saver. He frames the dollar’s past strength as a function of market performance and capital attraction, warns that recent […]

Lobbying is blamed for a multitude of evils by people from every area of the political spectrum. While it is extremely unpopular, its role in shaping the US’s regulation and national character is undeniable. This seems like a non-statement, but the normalization of lobbying as it is currently done has greatly damaged both America’s institutions […]

In his recent interview on the Milk Road Show, Peter walks through why Bitcoin looks weaker when priced in gold, how insiders and political hype have distorted crypto markets, and why the Federal Reserve’s moves have not been nearly restrictive enough. He closes by urging listeners to own gold and other commodity exposures as the […]

In a recent appearance on Legitimate Targets, Peter lays out a bleak scenario for the U.S. economy if current trade and fiscal policies continue. He ties rising consumer prices, falling asset values, and geopolitical shifts in global reserves to the political choices being made, and he warns that voters are not getting the honest accounting […]

In Peter’s latest interview with Glenn Diesen, Peter lays out why he sees gold as the clearest signal of failed monetary and fiscal policy and why mainstream economic statistics mislead the public. He takes aim at GDP and the CPI (Consumer Price Index), warns that the Fed is primed to monetize debt again, and explains […]

Regulation is already pernicious enough in its stifling effect on economic activity and entrepreneurship, but as regulations and bureaucratic control extend throughout the economy, they also cause the proliferation of “fake jobs” and promote lower job satisfaction for workers. The following article was originally published by the Mises Institute. The opinions expressed do not necessarily […]

From the 1920s to 2016, one of the strongest factions of the right has always been the boring “small government conservative.” With notable exceptions, like an idealistic vision for world peace backed by US military supremacy, the party primarily stayed constant in their role as the adults in the room to push back against unrealistic […]

A solid rest of the day for the precious metals, thanks to the Fed’s Miran saying that a 50bp cut in December would be “appropriate”.  Of course this is preposterous given where current Fed fund futures pricing is, but seeing as gold & silver fell -0.8% and -1.2% off early NY session highs on equally […]

A glorious start to the week for the precious metals overnight thanks to strong risk-on sentiment (global equity rallies and USD selling) following a 60-40 US Senate procedural vote to advance the funding bill on Sunday, the first step towards ending the US government shutdown.  The rest of the weekend new cycle was also very […]

A surprisingly strong start to Asian trade for gold & silver last night (6-9pmET), despite yesterday’s technically poor NY closes below the COMEX closing ranges and declines for the Nikkei and S&P futures during the 8pmET hour.  Another successful defense of gold’s 55hr moving average seemed to be the catalyst right after the Globex re-open.  […]

A very disappointing rest of the day for the precious metal bulls because Wall Street reprogrammed their gold algos to follow the stock market…which fell precipitously from the S&P cash open into 12:30pmET, bounced half way back by 2:30pmET, and finally fell back to session lows by the cash close.  This was especially obnoxious given […]

A strong overnight session as expected for the precious metals, thanks to yesterday’s “bullish piercing line” NY closing patterns on the daily charts, another round of Chinese buying last night, and continued USD selling following yesterday’s rally exhaustion signals.  The big extensions higher for gold & silver during late Asian / early European trade felt […]

A surprising bounce for the precious metals overnight after yesterday’s very poor NY closing prints, but it was mainly because Bitcoin (for whatever reason) recovered its losses from 12pmET yesterday during Asian trade.  This is nothing to celebrate in my opinion, as a new correlation with speculative crypto would introduce an unfavorable volatility profile to […]

A miserable rest of the day for the precious metal bulls.  They showed no interest in defending the overnight lows in gold, and so more aggressive metal algo selling smashed prices into last Wednesday’s lows at the S&P cash open.  A brief pullback for US yields into the London close helped gold bounce, and platinum’s […]

A challenging overnight session for the precious metals as expected following yesterday’s very poor performance during NY trade.  A -0.60% flush lower at the illiquid Globex open set the tone, stopping out Chinese buyers from the night before and so it was understandable that they didn’t return.  A two-hour decline for US yields, following a […]
