By Stefan Gleason, Money Metals

A wave of Fed-induced inflation is coming. The only question is how big it will be.

USA is Still Going Bananas

By Gary Tanashian, NFTRH

Sit back, relax, have a banana (smoothy, daiquiri, with your corn flakes or straight up). There are only two ways this story can ultimately end. Either a deflationary whirlpool or ole’ von Mises’ Crack-up-Boom.

By Rick Ackerman, Rick's Picks

The Democrats will soon own America's future, but they may come to regret it. The stock market is pumped so full of super-heated gas that it makes the Hindenburg look like a birthday balloon.

In 2021, we will come to a dubious milestone – the fiat money system’s golden anniversary.
