Well, it feels a lot like 2008, when the world was glued to the newsfeed waiting to hear which entity was the next casualty of the unfolding financial crisis, as well as what new extreme measure world governments would announce in response. In times of heightened anxiety & uncertainty like this, it's wise to tap the perspective of seasoned analysts who have studied and experienced decades of market action. There are patterns to history that, when understood, give us advantage in assessing the probabilities of what's likely to transpire next. Which is why we're fortunate today to speak with Fred Hickey, editor of the highly respected newsletter The High Tech Strategist, which Fred has been publishing since 1987. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

REGISTER NOW for Wealthion's online conference on March 18, 2023: https://wealthion.com/conference Well, Wealthion’s online conference is tomorrow. I’ve now met with every one of our amazing faculty for this event & I can honestly say this will be both our highest-quality & most important one yet. The macro situation is changing by the minute here at this point, and most of it not for the better. What will the growing weakness in the banking sector result in? What options does the Fed have at this point to address that weakness while inflation rages & recession looms? How swiftly will the correction in home prices & auto progress from here? Will the market be able to buck the gravitational pull of these issues trying to pull it back into bear market territory? We’ll be addressing these questions in depth at the conference, plus a whole lot more. If you haven’t yet registered for the event yet, today’s your last day. No more procrastinating. Go now to wealthion.com/conference and sign up. But before you do, here’s another sneak peek into the high-caliber insights the event will deliver. After recording Doomberg’s presentation in which he dialed through the prospects for the major energy sectors, we kept the camera running as I asked him some pointed questions about how essential nuclear energy will be to the world’s future energy mix. His position is emphatic and unflinching and extremely well-argued. Doomberg kindly gave his permission for me to share this bonus conversation with you. Enjoy! ************************************************* IMPORTANT NOTE: The information and opinions offered in this video by Wealthion or its interview guests are for educational purposes ONLY and should NOT be construed as personal financial advice.

The Fed is really feeling the heat these days. While inflation is starting to come down, it's still far too high, with February CPI coming in this week at 6.0%. Similarly, the latest government data on the jobs market shows its still far hotter than the Fed wants. With data like this, the Fed can't justify a pivot. Yet at the same time, the swift & sharp increase in interest rates the Fed has engineered is now starting to result in casualties, such as the banking failures that have happened over the past week. A big enough breakage in the system could force the Fed to change course. How is the Fed navigating the increasingly tight spot it's in? To find out, we're fortunate to be joined today by respected journalist Pedro de Costa. Pedro has spent the past 20 years covering central bank policy for publications such as Reuters, The Wall Street Journal and now MNI - Market news. #fed #banks #siliconvalleybank ************************************************* IMPORTANT NOTE: The information and opinions offered in this video by Wealthion or its interview guests are for educational purposes ONLY and should NOT be construed as personal financial advice.

REGISTER HERE for Wealthion's online conference on March 18, 2023: https://wealthion.com/conference Well, things are getting interesting fast, to put it mildly. We already had an overabundance of reasons to be concerned before the shockwave of instability that has rocked the banking system over the past several days. What’s likely to happen next? And what should we as individual investors be prioritizing now, before it happens? These questions will be the key focus of Wealthion’s upcoming online conference, which is now only a few days away. In the middle of the chaos of covering the still-unfolding bank failures, I’ve been busily preparing for the conference and folks, I’ve got to tell you, it couldn’t be more timely given what’s going on in the world right now. To learn more about the conference, go to: https://wealthion.com/conference So I thought I’d give you a sneak peek of the caliber of the experts & the content we’ve lined up for this event.  I recently recorded Dr Marc Faber’s presentation – he’s the well-known Editor & Publisher of the Gloom Boom Doom Report – and we then spent another 20 minutes afterwards talking about where all of this growing instability is likely headed. Marc’s been kind enough to give his permission for me to share this bonus footage with you here. #inflation #marketcrash #fed ************************************************* IMPORTANT NOTE: The information and opinions offered in this video by Wealthion or its interview guests are for educational purposes ONLY and should NOT be construed as personal financial advice.

The financial world has been rocked over the past few days as Silicon Valley Bank, the nation's 16th largest bank which had $209 billion in assets and $175 billion in deposits as of December, failed with little warning. This is the 2nd largest bank failure in US history. Shockwaves from this very fluid situation are still in process of rippling through the Tech ecosystem as many VC-funded start-ups exclusively did their banking there. And depositors around the country though are suddenly wondering how safe their own banks are. To bring us up to speed on the latest developments & discuss what's most likely to happen from here, former Federal Reserve insider Joseph Wang, who publishes about the inner workings of the monetary and banking systems,  has kindly agreed to sit down with me here on a Sunday for this special recording. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

What a difference a week makes... Last week the market technicals were starting to look like the bulls had won out. But this week, trouble in the banking system, most notably the failure of Silicon Valley Bank (the 2nd largest bank failure in US history), has created a bearish marker reversal. So how meaningful is the failure of SVB? What fallout is most likely to come out of it? Portfolio manager Lance Roberts and I tackle these questions head on in this week's Market Recap. We summarize everything we know so far about why the SVB failed and how exposed other banks may be to the same causal factors. For everything that mattered to markets this week, watch this week's Market Recap with Lance Roberts. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

While most eyes are focused on what the Federal Reserve will do next, many of the most important developments shaping events here in 2023 are happening outside of the US. Russia's invasion of Ukraine upended the geo-political chessboard, as well as world trade and the energy & financial markets -- and it continues raging on, over a year after its outbreak. China, too, is making waves that all nations feel as it reopens its economy after years of COVID lockdown while its relations with the West continue to strain over Taiwan. What large & long lasting implications will these global developments have? To better understand the situation from a non-US perspective, we're fortunate to welcome back to the program Louis Gave, Founding Partner and CEO at Gavekal. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

There are a lot of mixed messages out there right now. The economy is strong, yet inflation-adjusted retail sales aren't growing. The jobs market is strong, yet more and more of corporate America is announcing layoffs. The housing market is robust, yet we've just hit a record level of unaffordability. Which is more correct? Do better or worse days lie ahead? To help us clear out the smoke & get a true picture of what's going on, we welcome macro analyst Mike "Mish" Shedlock back to the program. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

Here's a quick explainer video for you about how to buy very short-dated US Treasurys, known as T-bills, directly from the US Treasury using the TreasuryDirect website. As you know if you’re a regular viewer on this channel,I’ve been making a lot of noise recently now that T-bills are offering yields around 5%. That’s a very big development, as investors who are concerned about today’s financial markets now have somewhere safe to park their capital, keep it relatively liquid, AND get paid a decent return on it. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

Market sentiment is muddled right now. The bull rally since the start of the year is appearing to sputter out. The bears are growling louder -- but they too, haven't been able to grab control of the price direction. In murky times like these, turning to the data & navigating by what it's telling us is often highly useful. Which is why we're fortunate to have one of the best technical analysts in the industry, Tom McClellan, joining us today to share his latest interpretation of the current market action. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

Record-low interest rates & central bank stimulus resulting in a record decade for housing price gains leading up to 2021.  But then the Fed and many other central banks reversed policy. Interest rates have rocketed higher and the stimulus spigots have turned off. Mortgages are now more than twice as expensive than they were two years ago. As home prices are now weakening nationwide -- and globally, too -- homeowners around the world are asking: if a correction is now in process, how bad will it get? To help us better understand the key dynamics in play, Amy Nixon returns to the program. She appeared on this channel several months ago to warn of us the brewing trouble in the short-term rental market, which she coined the "AirBnBust" -- a warning that quickly proved prophetic. If we have time, I'll ask her for an update on that unfolding correction, as well. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.

The last time today's guest expert was on this channel, he predicted a rocky road ahead for the global economy, that will eventually culminate in the massive pile of $trillions in global unserviceable debt going into default causing a worldwide depression by 2025. Since his last appearance, the markets have become a lot more optimistic, US GDP has perked up a bit, and inflation has been marching downwards -- albeit more slowly than the central banks would like. Today we'll ask copper expert & macro analyst Simon Hunt whether his dire forecast has improved at all. Or perhaps, gotten even worse. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world’s top experts on finance and money.
