Transcript
- 0:01Silver and gold were already making a massive big statement
- 0:04this week. We're going to cover that.
- 0:06But we've got massive breaking news just in the last few
- 0:10minutes. The Supreme Court has struck
- 0:13down President Donald Trump's tariff situation, and the
- 0:17reactions in the market are nothing short of, to me,
- 0:20surprising. Let's go take a look at the
- 0:23headline, and then we're going to do a quick update on what's
- 0:26happening in the gold and silver market.
- 0:28There are fireworks going off every, everywhere, guys, let's
- 0:31head out and see what the CNBC is telling us this morning
- 0:36regarding hold on one second here.
- 0:40Yep, here we go Should be on your screen.
- 0:42Yes, it is Supreme Court strikes down Trump tariffs, rebuking
- 0:49president's signature economic policy that is sending
- 0:52shockwaves through different markets.
- 0:54It actually is having the general markets go up the US
- 0:58dollar. We're going to head over here to
- 1:01MarketWatch. As you can see, this is the DXY
- 1:05index. So the US dollar nose dived
- 1:09right when that right when that announcement came out down,
- 1:12down, down. But what do we care about dollar
- 1:17smaller, right friends? We care about the price of gold
- 1:20and silver and let's go see how that is doing.
- 1:23We aren't going to count any chickens before they hatch.
- 1:26But according to Kitco, and I want to update this for you, so
- 1:31let me refresh the screen. According to Kitco, we have
- 1:35silver up $3.22, gold up $48 per oz.
- 1:41Wow, we are moving all over the place.
- 1:44Let's go look at the futures market.
- 1:46OK, Now the futures market, interestingly enough, we have
- 1:49silver up $4.00 and that's actually hold on one second
- 1:55here. This is the March contract.
- 1:58Here we go. This is the March contract and
- 2:03this is up-to-the-minute, 1053 actually delayed by by 10
- 2:08minutes, but still we are moving all over the place right now.
- 2:13We'll come back and look at this in a little bit.
- 2:15I'm back at the spot market, $3.26, OK Already, though, we
- 2:21had silver and gold making a huge statement to the Comex and
- 2:25the LBMA. We're going to talk about
- 2:27manipulation at the Comex and the LBMA a couple times today
- 2:31during this live stream. But last Sunday I made a
- 2:35prediction that I thought the silver price could actually go
- 2:38up this week. Everybody out there in the world
- 2:40of precious metals was saying because of the Chinese New Year
- 2:44and the Shanghai Gold Exchange being closed, that the Comex and
- 2:48the when the cats away, the mice will play, that the Comex and
- 2:51the LBMA would, and that rhymes would take that opportunity to
- 2:57smash the price of gold and silver.
- 2:59Now, we even heard predictions of silver getting as low as $50.
- 3:03And I told you I wasn't like making like, this is a sure
- 3:06thing prediction, But I said wouldn't it be interesting?
- 3:09And I said, I thought it would be likely since everybody was
- 3:13telling us that silver would be down for the week if silver
- 3:16would be up. Basement dwellers, if we
- 3:18continue, who knows what's going to happen in the next few hours.
- 3:22But if we continue on this trajectory, we will actually,
- 3:25and I appreciate all the emails you guys are sending me saying,
- 3:28hey, you called it Ron, but we would actually be up for the
- 3:32week. There's a big signal in that
- 3:35that is signaling that despite the fact that the Chinese
- 3:38markets are closed, those people at the COMEX, some people call
- 3:43it the Crime X in the LBMA, the London Billion Market
- 3:46Association are maybe losing their grip on silver.
- 3:50That silver in particular truly is exerting, right?
- 3:54It's strength now because of physical demand and there's a
- 3:58lot going on with China. We're going to talk about that,
- 4:01man. We got a lot to talk about today
- 4:03Before we go any further, if you want to stay up to date, I do
- 4:06regular live streams. Please subscribe to the channel.
- 4:09We'd love to have you come back and join us down here in the
- 4:12basement. I'll leave a comment in the
- 4:14comment section. Give this a thumbs up that helps
- 4:17get the word out the more people and on top of that, come on
- 4:21butter cups. You're smart.
- 4:23You may not realize this, but according to Google, the people
- 4:27that watch this, this show, right?
- 4:30I got it over there somewhere. I've shown you many times are
- 4:33highly sophisticated. So leave a comment in the
- 4:38comment section so we can learn from you.
- 4:40All right, let's go take a look. Now we're gonna look at some
- 4:42charts. Interesting things are happening
- 4:45on the gold chart again. Gold is the granddaddy of the
- 4:48precious metals. Silver won't follow gold
- 4:51exactly, but you know what I'm talking about.
- 4:53It'll generally follow gold and there's some very interesting
- 4:56developments on the gold charts. First we're going to go out here
- 5:00to gold predictors. They can predict the future.
- 5:04Must be nice. Gold predictors is telling us
- 5:07this. Gold has completed.
- 5:09This is interesting on 2 levels, a multi year base from 2011 to
- 5:142023 and broken decisively above long term resistance.
- 5:19Price continues to advance on a quarterly chart without looking
- 5:23back. The correction in January does
- 5:25not change anything. Now there's two, two cool things
- 5:28on this chart. Where did my uh oh, where did my
- 5:32pen? Where did my crayons go?
- 5:33Oh, there they are. Sorry, I'm losing it.
- 5:36All right, we're we'll go with, we'll go with, we'll go with
- 5:40blue. That'll stick out nicely.
- 5:42OK, guys, right here. OK.
- 5:44We have this shows starting in 2011 down there going through
- 5:50what about 2021 right here. See that word, you may not be
- 5:55able to read it. That says cup that I just
- 5:58circled. That was the cup that formed in
- 6:02the silver market, our gold market, I'm sorry.
- 6:05And then we had a handle which now we have broken out of and as
- 6:10you can see continue to March higher.
- 6:14We know about the 45 year cup and handle in the silver market,
- 6:18but we don't talk about it as much in the gold market.
- 6:21Now on top of that, hold on here, on top of that as you can
- 6:25see, OK, he has the circled over here.
- 6:28We also have a massive long term ascending triangle which starts
- 6:33all the way back here in 2008. Hold on OK, and goes all the way
- 6:39through here right about 2024 And there's the top there's the
- 6:44resistance, the key here and then we broke out of that as
- 6:47well, right Cuz there's the the top part.
- 6:49See how it makes like a triangle and my, my drawing it makes a
- 6:53makes like a wedge. I call it wedge pattern, an
- 6:56ascending wedge because it's going upward.
- 6:59OK. So the important thing here is
- 7:03we have broken out of this level right here from both a cup and
- 7:08handle perspective and this ascending wedge perspective.
- 7:13And those are both 2 very reliable chart patterns.
- 7:17And again, this is gold, but what's good for gold is good for
- 7:21silver. It's kind of like, I don't know,
- 7:23like something that's good for your mom and dad.
- 7:26If your parents win the lottery, that's going to be good for you
- 7:29as well. All right, let's go look at the
- 7:31next one. We got more charts.
- 7:32This came from Rashad A Gold is about to break out from a
- 7:36triangle formation. Previous breakout from similar
- 7:38pattern result resulted in a 40% gain within less than three
- 7:43months. 40% percent gain from the present price level suggests
- 7:49$7000 gold. He misspoke and said silver.
- 7:52Trust me, it's easy to get him mixed up.
- 7:54But final parabolic run in the present cycle could result in
- 7:58higher gold price by May of 2026.
- 8:01Let's look at his triangles. 2 triangles.
- 8:04He points this one out right there was that triangle there?
- 8:08And then over the next 83 days we had a major 40% move up this
- 8:13one here which has been forming. See that triangle in the gold
- 8:16price has been forming over about the last, I think I looked
- 8:21up like 2425 days. We're going to either breakdown
- 8:26or we're going to break up, OK. And when we think about things
- 8:30like the cup and handle that are working in our favor, like we
- 8:32just looked at the ascending long term wedge that we just
- 8:35looked at, I think, right, we're going to draw 2-UP arrows that
- 8:40the odds are going towards the upside.
- 8:42Let's talk about manipulation in these markets.
- 8:45You guys are, I'm getting a lot of questions, so I'll ask you a
- 8:48question. You know what spoofing is.
- 8:51Spoofing is how they manipulate the price of silver and gold,
- 8:56but especially silver on the big major exchanges.
- 9:01There have been, there have been convictions, OK and major fines
- 9:05levied against the big financial institutions for their traders
- 9:09spoofing, manipulating. We dealt with it for years, like
- 9:13we talked about earlier. What's happening right now is
- 9:17more proof right that the comex and the LBMA are losing their
- 9:20grip. But but let's talk about
- 9:23spoofing. I'm going to explain it to you
- 9:24very easily because it's the way that they manipulate the price.
- 9:29I'll, I'll, I'll read you this quickly 1st and then I'll give
- 9:32you a great example how the we got the right screen up there we
- 9:36go. Yep OK from gold silver HQ how
- 9:38banksters spoof silver lower right number one they flood the
- 9:44screen with giant fake sell orders for millions of Oz.
- 9:50It looks like huge supply like a lot of people are wanting to
- 9:54sell their silver OK but they're fake orders.
- 9:58Then bots and scared traders see this right the wall of red and
- 10:03panic and they sell like Oh my gosh if there's all these
- 10:05sellers coming I better sell my silver right now.
- 10:08The price crashes 3 to 8% in minutes.
- 10:12They then cancel 99% of those orders.
- 10:16And this all happens super instantaneously, guys.
- 10:20In milliseconds. They never meant to fill them,
- 10:23OK? They never meant to sell all
- 10:25that silver. Then they quietly buy back the
- 10:28cheap silver they just created. They repeat every option.
- 10:32Yeah, I need to interrupt you. Yeah.
- 10:41There's Crab raid going on and I think it's supposed to be a good
- 10:44thing, I'm just not familiar with it.
- 10:46OK. See my right now, these people,
- 10:50I think they came from another community.
- 10:52OK, OK, OK, that's OK. What?
- 10:56What are they called? Crab Raid Crab.
- 10:59RAID, it's supposed to be fun and.
- 11:01Everyone. Oh, some somebody's raiding
- 11:03crab. Amazing.
- 11:05He's OK. OK.
- 11:06All right. I'll check that out.
- 11:07Welcome, welcome, welcome to all the crabs.
- 11:10Anyway, they rinse and repeat. That's called spoofing guys.
- 11:13Sorry for that little interruption.
- 11:15And thank you, Susie, for letting International.
- 11:19International Stacker. Yeah.
- 11:21Cool, man. Thank you.
- 11:22Thanks for being here. More.
- 11:24The more the merrier, right? The silver and gold community.
- 11:28And we're growing like crazy. So welcome to the basement.
- 11:31All the new people. I'm glad you're here.
- 11:33This is awesome. Spoofing.
- 11:35OK, so that's spoofing fake sell orders.
- 11:37Here's another easy way to understand it.
- 11:39Let's make believe that that, that, that you want to buy a
- 11:42house in a neighborhood and there's 10 houses in that
- 11:45neighborhood and only one is for sale and the guy won't budget on
- 11:50his price, right? Think of that as being silver.
- 11:53There's one house for sale. There's 10 houses in the
- 11:56neighborhood. You want to buy it.
- 11:58If you were a spoofer, what you might do if you were like one of
- 12:02the big bullion banks, you might go to five of those other
- 12:05neighbors. Excuse me?
- 12:09You might go to five of those other neighbors and knock on
- 12:11their door and say, hey, I'll pay you 100 bucks if you put a
- 12:15for sale sign in your front yard for a week.
- 12:18OK, So suddenly there's five more houses that appear to be
- 12:22for sale in that neighborhood, but they're not really for sale.
- 12:26And the one guy who actually wants to sell his house but
- 12:29won't budget on his price, right?
- 12:31He might get scared and then you knock on his door and make him
- 12:34an offer for 50K less than what he was asking and he may sell it
- 12:38in an artificially low price and then all those other for sale
- 12:41signs go down. I hope that makes sense.
- 12:43That's spoofing. That's the way it works.
- 12:45OK, let's talk about gold 00 silver.
- 12:48I didn't even tell you this, right?
- 12:51There's a big Swiss or Swedish anyway, financial firm that is
- 12:56saying in no uncertain terms that we can have 100 and this is
- 12:59a big firm, $133 silver. We'll get to that next.
- 13:03Thank you First Mint for sponsoring Ron's basement.
- 13:06They are a silver specialist mint in Las Vegas, NV.
- 13:12You know, they're owned by First Majestic Silver who mines the
- 13:16silver in Mexico, sends it to Las Vegas to first Met where
- 13:19it's transformed into world class silver bullion products.
- 13:22And then it goes straight to you, literally from the mine to
- 13:25the meant to you. It's the freshest silver in
- 13:28town. OK.
- 13:29You can check them out at firstmet.com.
- 13:32There is a discount code that you can use VIPRB.
- 13:37Here's the website right here. You can go to their store and
- 13:41check out everything They have bars, rounds, accessories.
- 13:43They got a new product coming out.
- 13:46You're the snake. That's not it.
- 13:48It's their new year of the horse round.
- 13:50And I'll tell you what their products are beautiful and I
- 13:53appreciate all the great feedback from you, the basement
- 13:56dweller community. You guys are experiencing what I
- 13:59am. They are like a premium retail
- 14:01experience for average people like us to get our hands on the
- 14:04freshest silver in town and think about it from the mine to
- 14:07the meant to you. No Comex, no LBMA.
- 14:10It is spoof proof. Oh my gosh, that's a new one.
- 14:13I'll have to share it with the guys at First Met, Right, First
- 14:16Met Silver. It's spoof proof because it's
- 14:19never been touched by the COMEX or the LBMA.
- 14:23Let's talk about this big firm called telling us we're going to
- 14:26get much, much higher prices. Hold on here.
- 14:30Did I? Do we share this already?
- 14:32Yes. OK, here we go.
- 14:35Should be looking at it now from Kitco and our good friend, I
- 14:38love Niels Christensen. I've never met him.
- 14:42He used to do videos. What a great guy.
- 14:44He puts out unbelievable literary journalistic work, I
- 14:48guess is the right term within the gold and silver sector.
- 14:51And he says gold is headed to $6000 this year, silver to 133,
- 14:58but expect 30% price swings. That's from AUAG funds.
- 15:03They said some interesting things last week.
- 15:07AAUAG Funds published a 2026 outlook and the analyst said
- 15:12they expect the gold price to push decisively above 6000 per
- 15:16oz this year and see silver price reaching 133 per oz, which
- 15:21would put the gold silver ratio back to last month's multi year
- 15:25low of 45. And we all know that
- 15:28historically that can get as low as 1520, even lower than that.
- 15:34The Swedish investment company. So they're Swedish.
- 15:38So Susie upstairs, Susie, my lovely and talented companion, a
- 15:42friend of all of us down here in the basement, said that in a
- 15:45bull market, investors should expect to see 20 to 30% price
- 15:50swings. So guys, don't forget, right?
- 15:54Volatility is not, it's a feature of the gold and an in
- 15:59particular the silver market. It's a feature of the market.
- 16:03Let me look at you and tell you this.
- 16:04We got it. This is important for us to
- 16:06remember and we've been through, have we been through a little?
- 16:09Was it 3 weeks ago today that silver went down like the most
- 16:12ever in the history of the universe?
- 16:14But volatility is a feature of the silver market in particular,
- 16:19not a bug. It's part of the process.
- 16:22When silver had its epic run in the 70s, it had massive pull
- 16:26backs, massive volatility during that period.
- 16:29Same thing happened from 2001 to 2011 with silver went on an epic
- 16:33run, right, massive volatility, volatility.
- 16:37I know it stinks. I know it's, you know, the red
- 16:39days are no fun, no doubt about it, but it's a feature of the
- 16:43market. There will be more volatility.
- 16:45I hate to break the news to you, OK, but that the end result I
- 16:51believe will be much, much higher silver and gold prices.
- 16:53Let's go back out to the article.
- 16:55That's what you're here for. At the same time, the analyst
- 16:58said it's only a matter of time before global debt is monetized,
- 17:04with central banks led by the Federal Reserve cutting interest
- 17:07rates while simultaneously launching new quantitative
- 17:12easing measures to suppress long term yields.
- 17:15OK, look, yeah, it's inevitable. It's math.
- 17:18If you can work a calculator, if you could pass a third grade
- 17:21math test, maybe second grade math test.
- 17:24Anyway, you can look at the US debt clock.
- 17:27You can do basic arithmetic and see that there's only one thing
- 17:31that our government and all these Fiat currencies around the
- 17:34world are going to be able to do, and that is monetize the
- 17:37debt, which simply means print make believe money, print more
- 17:41dollars, right to buy the debt from themselves.
- 17:44It's like AI don't know what you call it, a quambazi or
- 17:47something, you know, like a circular.
- 17:49It's like a company selling stuff to themselves.
- 17:52It just doesn't make sense. All right, OK, here we go.
- 17:55Silver. This is what they thought.
- 17:57Let's focus in on silver because they believe silver has
- 18:00significantly more potential. Excuse me as prices could still
- 18:05double in the current in the current environment.
- 18:11AUAG funds noted that among with along with its role as a
- 18:16monetary metal, silver will see strong fundamental support as an
- 18:20industrial metal. And they bring up a great point
- 18:23here. After some several years of
- 18:25supply deficits relative to demand, the market is
- 18:28approaching a situation that could have a significant impact
- 18:31on price formation. OK, a physical shortage has the
- 18:35potential to double the price of silver within a very short
- 18:39period of time. Demand for silver is also highly
- 18:43inelastic. No matter how much the price
- 18:47increases, it's highly unlikely there will be any meaningful
- 18:51decline in use usage. This is partly because silver's
- 18:56properties are irreplaceable the part and partly because, easy
- 19:02for me to say, silver typically represents only a small portion
- 19:06of the of the total cost of of the finished products.
- 19:10So think about your grandma making those great chocolate
- 19:13chip cookies you loved as a kid, OK?
- 19:15And they call for 1/2 a cup of sugar.
- 19:18Grandma doesn't care if a pound of sugar cost $2.00 or a pound
- 19:22of sugar cost $20, maybe even $50.00, right?
- 19:26She's still going to use sugar in her cookies.
- 19:29And the same thing is true with silver solar panel
- 19:33manufacturers, microchip makers, all these different people that
- 19:37use silver, these things, things, you know, don't forget,
- 19:40All right, this is a silver. It's a little silver bar that
- 19:43I'm holding in my hand right now.
- 19:44There's silver in this Samsung, whatever phone I have, They
- 19:49aren't going to cut out silver because the price goes to 200 or
- 19:53$300. No, they're just going to pass
- 19:55it on to the consumers. And we're going to be, it's like
- 19:59the AI guy isn't that wasn't that funny?
- 20:02Last week, right, the the AI guy who said, hey, artificial
- 20:07intelligence is going to take your job.
- 20:09Did you know that, right? Artificial intelligence is
- 20:11replacing all the jobs and silver stackers are like, well,
- 20:14hey, that's OK, because I've got a lot of silver, excuse me?
- 20:19And AI needs a ton ton ton of silver.
- 20:23Further proof that the days are numbered for the Comex.
- 20:27This is super interesting. Before I do that, thank you
- 20:30first mining gold for sponsoring Ron's basement there a
- 20:34development stage gold company in Canada. 2 huge multi million
- 20:38ounce projects, Spring pool in Ontario, du Parquet in Quebec.
- 20:42I actually talked to the CEO last night.
- 20:44He was at the airport. We talked for like 15 minutes.
- 20:47I'll tell you more about that in a little bit, but there aren't a
- 20:49lot of big multi million ounce gold projects in Canada and 1st
- 20:55mining Gold, excuse me, has two of them.
- 20:58OK, and the big companies, the big mining companies having some
- 21:03voice problems today. Oh well, we're live and I'm glad
- 21:07you're here. And those big gold mining
- 21:09companies, they need to get their hands right.
- 21:12They need to refill their pipelines.
- 21:14They want to grow the gold, the gold and silver mining
- 21:17companies. And we're going to talk about
- 21:18this next and what it has to do with the Comex.
- 21:21It's very interesting. But these big mining companies
- 21:24are printing money right now, OK.
- 21:28And they not only need to replace the oz that they dig up
- 21:31out of the ground, but now they want to grow as well.
- 21:35And let's just say they got the money to do it.
- 21:37You can learn more about first mininggold@firstmininggold.com
- 21:41Is the are the days numbered for the COMEX?
- 21:43Because there's something that's happening with the mining
- 21:46companies that is super interesting in relation to the
- 21:50silver price at the COMEX. Not that it's been spoofed or
- 21:54manipulated or anything like that in the past, but get a load
- 21:57of this and there's a strong message in this for Silver
- 22:02investors everywhere from the Silver Academy when?
- 22:07You're finished. OK, thank you upstairs, Susie, I
- 22:11will ring the the golden. All right, thank you upstairs.
- 22:18Susie would like you to give more thumbs up.
- 22:20When we get the 500. We will ring the good luck
- 22:23golden gong for our friends in China who will be back buying
- 22:27gold and silver next week. Welcome back, Cotter.
- 22:30Welcome back. All right, now back to this.
- 22:32The Comex silver miners blow up the COMEX fantasy Hekla in first
- 22:39Majestic report Q4 realized prices roughly 26% above the
- 22:47official paper price. OK, we'll come back.
- 22:50I'm going to come back. We're going to we're going to
- 22:52hold on here. Hold on here, guys.
- 22:54I want to explain this, what this means.
- 22:57Basically during the fourth quarter of 2025, the silver
- 23:01price was on average. The average for October,
- 23:05November, December was $55 per oz.
- 23:08That was the average over the entire three month period.
- 23:12When you take all 90 days and divide it by 9, you know how to
- 23:16figure out an average. OK, so Hekla, the America's
- 23:20biggest silver mining company, and 1st Majestic, who happens to
- 23:24own our sponsor, first met, right?
- 23:27They should have, on average, sold silver for around $55 per
- 23:31house because that's what the comex price says that it was on
- 23:36average for the whole month. But guess what?
- 23:39It was a little bit different. OK, let's go take a look what
- 23:42people were actually paying for. Hold on here.
- 23:46Oh, I forgot the did I? No.
- 23:49All right, hold on. Hopefully you're seeing the
- 23:50right screen. OK.
- 23:53Hekla's December quarter is the cleanest towel.
- 23:56The company reported an average silver price sales price of
- 24:02almost $70 in Q4200025. How could that be?
- 24:09If the COMEX says the average silver price was $55 in Q4, how
- 24:14could Hekla be selling physical silver for $70.00?
- 24:18But wait, there's more because it says here then first Majestic
- 24:23comes in and confirms the pattern independently in its Q
- 24:27four 2025 highlights. First Majestic reported an
- 24:31average sales price also of almost $70 per oz says two
- 24:37different producers, two different sales books, same
- 24:40result negotiated physical price is running well above what the
- 24:45futures market says it is. OK, that's the real story.
- 24:50That's physical silver. Now, possibly they both got
- 24:54lucky and sold a bunch of silver and, you know, whatever.
- 24:57But the reality is it's at minimum.
- 25:01Wouldn't you say that it's very interesting, right, that the
- 25:04futures market, the COMEX, is telling us that the average
- 25:07price was $55. But the actual miners, the ones
- 25:11who are doing the work, digging the silver out of the ground,
- 25:15are reporting right with audited financial statements that they
- 25:19sold silver in an average price of almost $70 per oz.
- 25:23Doesn't that sound eerily similar to what we see when we
- 25:27compare the COMEX in the LBMA price average to the average
- 25:33prices that we see in, oh, where's that?
- 25:36Oh yeah, China, the Shanghai Gold Exchange in the Shanghai
- 25:40Futures Exchange, which has been running like 8-9, seven, $512
- 25:46per oz higher. Guys, the reality is this, the
- 25:48big take away is this, in my humble opinion, from my
- 25:52basement. And by the way, I'm glad you're
- 25:53here. Don't forget to subscribe.
- 25:55And if we get the 500 thumbs up upstairs, Susie is going to
- 25:58chime in and give the a OK for us to ring in the golden gone
- 26:02right. But what it tells us is this
- 26:04real simple. The physical market is taking
- 26:09over. OK.
- 26:11We are in a new world, a new paradigm for silver and gold.
- 26:15When I was talking with Dan Wilton last night, the CEO of
- 26:18First Mining Gold, we were talking about how, how the world
- 26:22is so different in from the perspective of the gold and
- 26:25silver price, right, geopolitically, what's going on
- 26:29in the world. And he said something and I'm
- 26:31not putting words in his mouth, so I'm not going to quote him.
- 26:33But like, it's not like an epidemic of trust is going to
- 26:37break out in the world. Like there's a lot of
- 26:39geopolitical uncertainty, which has been driving countries to to
- 26:43scramble, which is the word Dan and I used like 6-6 or six
- 26:48weeks, 8 weeks ago, scramble to get their hands on these metals.
- 26:52That's not going to change geopolitically.
- 26:54And then the icing on top is looking at the fiscal situation,
- 26:58the debt situation in the United States and the world.
- 27:01You know what, let's go take a quick look at it, then we'll
- 27:03come back. Don't you worry.
- 27:05Don't you worry. All right, we look at this.
- 27:09Here's the US debt clock boy. What do you know, Man, I'm
- 27:14always so shocked. I'm sure you are too, to see
- 27:17this on the US debt clock. the US national debt continues to
- 27:22explode. I mean, we're going to be at 40
- 27:25trillion. Maybe we'll have a 40 trillion
- 27:27party when we get there, but we're at 38 trillion, 700
- 27:30billion in national debt, guys, the average taxpayer in the
- 27:35United States, that works out to them owing 355.
- 27:39I got news for you. And then of course, we can go
- 27:41down here. All right, I'll do it for you.
- 27:43There's our interest, almost a trillion, 127.
- 27:47Oh, cool. All right, we're going to ring
- 27:48the golden gone guys, don't you worry.
- 27:50Hold on. Let me get let me go back here.
- 27:53OK, Down here is the debt. Ah, this makes me so mad.
- 27:57I'm sorry. The interest on the debt, right,
- 27:59a trillion dollars. OK, this is our deficit, $1.7
- 28:05trillion, which is going to get worse now that the tariffs have
- 28:10gone away. The national debt follow the
- 28:12arrow right creates. Can I make that bigger?
- 28:16Hold on. Oh, yeah, I can Hold on a
- 28:20second. Guys, this is fun.
- 28:23See if we can do it this way. Oh, look at that.
- 28:27I just learned something new. The national debt creates the
- 28:31interest expense. OK.
- 28:33And nobody wants to buy our debt anyway.
- 28:34So in real terms, debt should go up.
- 28:36The only way we're going to get the interest rates down is by
- 28:39printing more money. But that creates the interest
- 28:42expense, the level of the debt the interest expense feeds into,
- 28:47right, the budget deficit. The budget deficit gets bigger
- 28:50than the budget deficit makes this get bigger again.
- 28:55OK, The national debt, follow my cursor.
- 28:58That is what you call a debt spiral.
- 29:01And the only thing they're going to be able to do to deal with
- 29:04that is to print money. OK.
- 29:07If you don't understand what I did to say, go back.
- 29:09Look at it. It makes sense.
- 29:10You don't even have to use a calculator, right?
- 29:13And as nobody wants to buy our debt more and more, that'll make
- 29:16interest rates go up higher. That'll make the interest
- 29:19expense get higher, which makes the it's not good anyway.
- 29:24That's why you've made the decision to protect yourself
- 29:26with some gold and silver. Hold on one second here, let me
- 29:30go out to and thanks to the people who showed up and we got
- 29:34a couple super chats. Let me see those first.
