- 0:00Are you a struggling silver, gold, precious metal mining
- 0:03stock investor? I am.
- 0:05I'll raise my hand to that one. Are we ready for some good news?
- 0:10Yes, we are. Unfortunately, our good news
- 0:15comes in the form of bad news for the US economy, because all
- 0:20we've heard over the last year is how great the US economy is,
- 0:25GDP growing exceeding expectations, recreational
- 0:30vehicle sales going through the roof.
- 0:33But are we at a point now where we need to talk about the truth?
- 0:38And I've got five areas that I want to cover today that I think
- 0:42in very uncertain terms demonstrate that the economy is
- 0:47in big, big trouble. And again, that'll actually be
- 0:52good news for silver investors and gold investors.
- 0:56Let's start with layoffs. And I apologize, I have to read
- 1:00from a list, because just this week we've heard about mass
- 1:04layoffs at a number of companies.
- 1:07Let's start with UPS. Big, big layoffs.
- 1:10PayPal cutting jobs. Amazon cutting jobs.
- 1:14Microsoft cutting jobs. Google TikTok, eBay Levi's.
- 1:21Cutting, cutting, cutting, cutting Salesforce cutting 7000
- 1:25jobs. They're a huge tech company.
- 1:27Macy's cutting jobs. Wayfair cutting jobs.
- 1:30Many more, including Citibank, which is eliminating over 20,000
- 1:36jobs. All those companies I just
- 1:38mentioned to you, those are high paying jobs.
- 1:41Many of them 6 figure jobs with great benefits that are going
- 1:46away and unfortunately for the people being laid off from those
- 1:50companies, they're going to have a difficult time finding new
- 1:54work. Fortuna Silver Mines is a global
- 1:56intermediate gold and silver producer.
- 1:59Since 2005, Fortuna's best in class management has delivered
- 2:04impressive growth and profits. Fortuna's solid financial
- 2:08position and operational expertise allows for performance

- 2:21markets. Investing in Fortuna is an
- 2:24investment in quality, long term, sustainable production of
- 2:28in demand precious and base metals.
- 2:32What's the next big indicator that we've got trouble in the
- 2:36economy? And again, that's good for the
- 2:39silver pricing, gold price? We don't want to celebrate
- 2:42anyone's misfortune. We're just talking about the
- 2:45facts. And remember UPS laying off
- 2:48thousands of people? Well, we got a big clue from
- 2:53them about the strength of the economy because UPS ships things
- 2:57all over the country. They move products for
- 3:01businesses, for consumers and they reported that in 2023 their
- 3:07freight volumes were way, way down.
- 3:10I'm hearing numbers as large as 8%.
- 3:13What does that tell us about the health of the US economy?
- 3:18We also heard this week from the Chicago PMI that we have
- 3:22contracting business conditions, right.
- 3:25The purchase managers index shrinking contracting guys.
- 3:30Everywhere we look, we're hearing bad news for the
- 3:33economy, which again will be good news for the silver pricing
- 3:37gold price. If you want to get your hands on
- 3:39some silver or gold or platinum before it's too late, let's all
- 3:43thank our channel sponsor, Pimbex Pi MB EX.
- 3:48The best selection, the best prices, the best service in a
- 3:52company that I trust. You need to find that out for
- 3:56yourself. Next time you're shopping for
- 3:57bullion online or anywhere, do yourself a big favor.
- 4:02Throw Pinbex into the mix. I think you'll find what I
- 4:05found. Pinbex checks all the boxes.
- 4:08What else do we have going on that indicates to us that the
- 4:12economy is in trouble? How about crude oil?
- 4:16The fact that the crude oil price is so low, inventories are
- 4:21building. That is a undeniable piece of
- 4:26evidence that the economy is slowing down.
- 4:28Oil is the lifeblood of the US economy, of the world economy.
- 4:34It's the most traded commodity in the world.
- 4:37It is everything from energy to manufacturing, everywhere and
- 4:42everything. It permeates the economy and
- 4:45when we have building inventories and prices in
- 4:49particular, while we're having major crisis in the Middle East,
- 4:54prices, where they are is a big, big red flag about worldwide
- 5:01economic activity. What else can we point to?
- 5:04How about you in your own personal life?
- 5:07Are you feeling wealthy now? According to our president and
- 5:10the White House, Bidenomics is working.
- 5:14But when we talk to our friends and our neighbors, when we're
- 5:17really honest with each other, aren't a lot of us struggling
- 5:22financially? Isn't it becoming harder to pay
- 5:25things like car insurance? House insurance?
- 5:28Have you been to the grocery store lately?
- 5:31Everyone everywhere is cutting back If you started to notice
- 5:36you're getting more and more lucrative coupon offers and your
- 5:40e-mail inbox. I remember a couple years ago I
- 5:44would hardly get any offers. Now I seem to be getting a buy
- 5:47one, get one free offer from restaurants and all types of
- 5:51businesses and services on a daily basis.
- 5:54That's because the US economy is slowing down.
- 5:58You ever get the feeling that we're living in a fantasy world?
- 6:03Funny money? Do you feel a little crazy?
- 6:06Well, you're not alone. And the reason why you feel
- 6:09crazy is because the system has grown so convoluted, so
- 6:14perverted, it's all coming to a head.

- 6:21A lot of people are calling for 2024 to be a year full of major
