- 0:00Absolute historic moves in the gold and silver market.
- 0:05A lot of people are going to claim that they saw it coming,
- 0:09but I've got a special guest for you today.
- 0:11One of his associates reached out to me Tuesday of last week
- 0:16saying that he wanted to come on my show and give a warning that
- 0:19we could see a major pull back in the silver price.
- 0:23I then talked to him on Thursday.
- 0:26We arranged this live stream for today, Monday, but we all know
- 0:31what happened on Friday. His prediction came true.
- 0:34I'm starting to think this guy might have a crystal ball.
- 0:38I'm going to introduce you to Leor Gantz.
- 0:40He is the founder of Wealth Research Group.
- 0:43We're going to talk to him about why he saw this coming, but even
- 0:47more importantly, what he sees in the future.
- 0:50Leor, without further ado, welcome to Ron's basement.
- 0:54Thank you for joining us today. Thank you for running back.
- 0:57Yeah, so I told the story. What?
- 1:00What? What are the reasons why you saw
- 1:02this coming? Well, it's one I didn't want to
- 1:05be right on. But look, I, I think it's a
- 1:09combination of a number of things that we saw of course in,
- 1:13in the weeks leading up to last week, we we saw unbelievable
- 1:20type moves in gold and silver. They started with the export
- 1:25controls from China and then along with what happened with
- 1:31the the Fed and going to trial with one of the Fed governors
- 1:37that Trump wants to fire. And Powell actually went to the
- 1:42courthouse. So there was an open front
- 1:44between the Fed and the Treasury Department or the White House.
- 1:49Then you had Davos, where Jameson Greer, who effectively
- 1:56is one of the masterminds behind the Trump economic policies,
- 2:03basically told the globalists that their time is up and that
- 2:07America is going in another direction, and they can either
- 2:10follow that direction or they can go their own ways.
- 2:14And I want to address that and how important that is.
- 2:17And then all of that led me to say between everything we're
- 2:23seeing, it would take one more piece of news for this to all
- 2:28crumble. And, and then you had a Friday
- 2:31with three major news items. 1, you had trueflation coming in
- 2:36with less than 1% inflation. 2, you had the worst nomination.
- 2:42And three, you saw the easing of tensions between the US and and
- 2:47Iran. Those three things to me were
- 2:53basically the the justification for what we saw.
- 2:58And I think that it it it changes everything.
- 3:02And I'd like to explain more about what we heard in the
- 3:06cabinet meeting from Trump and then what this means for gold
- 3:10and silver. But yeah, for sure we are not
- 3:13not going anywhere near where we were for a while.
- 3:19Yeah, Yeah. So it's almost do you, do you
- 3:21think silver was in a bubble? Let me ask you that question.
- 3:24Do you think this was the the pen that that pricked the
- 3:27bubble? I think, I think it, it wasn't a
- 3:30bubble so much as so in other words, it wasn't a retail
- 3:35bubble. I do believe that that you will
- 3:39see retail coming back to silver.
- 3:46So I, I, I don't think that this was the retail bubble.
- 3:50You also see that there's a different price for silver in
- 3:53the West and in China. So this is definitely not an, an
- 3:57American COMEX LED silver bubble.
- 3:59So no, I, I don't believe that. I don't believe this was like a
- 4:02bubble pricking. I think this was a a a big
- 4:06washout to to build a new base and to go from there just so
- 4:11much more upside for both gold and silver.
- 4:13But I do think they that we will be in a range for the coming
- 4:18weeks and and perhaps even months.
- 4:20Yeah, Yep, Yep. So I want to reiterate to our
- 4:22office or to our audience, I'm sorry, our office, we're in the
- 4:26basement, the basement office. But that Leor, and correct me if
- 4:29I'm wrong, you are still very much long term bullish on the
- 4:33metals, gold, silver and I'd imagine copper as well.
- 4:37I I am and and this doesn't change that.
- 4:42Yeah, at all. In fact, my year end target for
- 4:4820/25 was 47. So we are, we're definitely much
- 4:53better than than that. It's almost, it's funny you're,
- 4:57you're seeing like silver $76 right now and you're like with
- 5:03mixed emotions. But anybody you tell them one
- 5:06year ago, hey, how about on Trump's second inauguration?
- 5:11They like the one year anniversary silver is above 75.
- 5:14What do you think? So I think we're, we're, we're
- 5:18in the bull market for commodities.
- 5:20We're in a bull market for precious metals.
- 5:24And I think what you saw was a release valve for many
- 5:28speculative bits and and leverage bits.
- 5:32But the fundamentals have not changed in in the least.
- 5:38Do you, do you think that because I'm hearing, you know,
- 5:42people throw around terms like 10 Sigma like this was a 1 and I
- 5:47don't know, 10 quadrillion billion chance it could happen.
- 5:50You think it was engineered and maybe you were insinuating that
- 5:55as you were just speaking that that that that this was somewhat
- 5:59possibly engineered to help save some of the shorts.
- 6:02I hear that theory being floated around quite a bit.
- 6:06I'm sure, I'm sure there are irregularities with the moves up
- 6:12and down. I, I don't, I can't ascribe
- 6:15trillions of dollars moving hands just to, to a few, you
- 6:23know, spoofing trays or whatever else.
- 6:26This, this wasn't that. This is a big deal.
- 6:29So in the cabinet meeting, what Trump announced was the new
- 6:35deal. There was FD Rs new deal that
- 6:39basically created or or birthed the nanny state in America in 19
- 6:45in in the 1930s and LED to many of the structures of society and
- 6:50the economy that we have with us today.
- 6:54And Trump is erasing that and rewriting a new new deal.
- 7:02Trump's New Deal or the Republican New Deal, as he calls
- 7:04it. And I think that the most
- 7:07important part about it is that both Besant and Wash were both
- 7:15mentored by Stanley Druckenmiller.
- 7:17And Stanley Druckenmiller hates Kenyanism and, and does not
- 7:25believe that the Fed should have so much power to do QEQT, to
- 7:31send rates to 0, etcetera. And now you have a Fed
- 7:35treasurer, a Secretary of the Treasury with a nominated Fed
- 7:39chairman that both believe that the Fed's balance sheet should
- 7:43shrink dramatically, that the Fed should stick to doing the
- 7:48very basic things that a central bank should do and not override
- 7:53the Treasury and, and definitely not be independent of the
- 7:56Treasury. So that is a huge revolution
- 7:59because it, it means the ends of bail.
- 8:01It's the end of bailouts. It's the end of the liquidity
- 8:04injections. It's the end of trying to
- 8:07intervene in the free markets. And, and you know, when you
- 8:12really understand how much of A revolution this is, This is why
- 8:16Wall Street really is in a panic, because this generation
- 8:21of Wall Streeters that came up from 2008 up until now, all they
- 8:27know is that the Fed is on their side.
- 8:30So for them to see a Fed treasurer or a Fed chairman that
- 8:36has the, the interest of Main Street at heart and what's the
- 8:40work with the Treasury Department, that is a massive,
- 8:43massive change between that and what you saw with inflation.
- 8:51I think that really changes how Wall Street will behave going
- 8:55forward. To them, this adds a lot of risk
- 8:59to the table because now they, they know the Fed will not be
- 9:01there for them. I think that that will really
- 9:05change the way they allocate their portfolio between 6040,
- 9:09they will probably go to 202525252525 or, or some
- 9:14combination of that. And, and we are in a revolution
- 9:18for, for the investment class. So that is the early innings of
- 9:24it and you will see a lot more of it as we proceed in 2026
- 9:29because a lot more is coming. Yeah.
- 9:31So, so, So what you're saying is this habit that a lot of retail
- 9:37investors Wall Street have gotten into of thinking that
- 9:40there's a Fed put that that you know, buy the dip, whatever that
- 9:45are you saying that we could be in for some interesting times in
- 9:48the general markets as well going forward?
- 9:50I do. I do because see the, the
- 9:54inequality of incomes and of wealth in America has left the
- 10:00younger generation very confused about whether or not America
- 10:04works because they see the the generation above them and they
- 10:08see that it's, it's very hard to reach the wealth that the
- 10:11boomers have had. But what they don't understand
- 10:14is that the boomers got rich not because of the American system,
- 10:18but because of the globalist system.
- 10:20And so they, they false, they falsely reject the idea of
- 10:25America when all they're really saying is whoever hijacked
- 10:29America, we, we, we reject that. But they don't understand all
- 10:36the intricacies. And so they think that either
- 10:39Trump represents that rotten America instead of really
- 10:44represents rotten America. And they don't and there are
- 10:47many even in the right or in in the Trump camp that don't
- 10:51believe in government in general and just want to be left alone.
- 10:53And they're very isolationist. They're like, I don't care.
- 10:56Like the government cannot do any good.
- 10:59As if, you know, somebody like Scott, the center ran the number
- 11:02one hedge fund in the world, all of a sudden comes to the
- 11:05Treasury Department and he and he's a different person now.
- 11:09He's has different attributes. So they're they're this
- 11:13generation is very much rejecting any idea.
- 11:19And it will take time for America to come back together
- 11:22and understand that what really the real success of America was
- 11:30when they were able to become independent of the British
- 11:33Empire in terms of not just winning the the independence
- 11:39war, but also becoming industrialized by way of tariffs
- 11:44and having a massive, massive industrial base starting at
- 11:49right after the the civil War. And all of the people that
- 11:55wanted to detach themselves from the British Empire were
- 12:00assassinated. Alexander Hamilton, Abraham
- 12:03Lincoln, and then the president that that President Trump is, is
- 12:07basically trying to emulate the most William McKinley.
- 12:11So, and Trump almost was assassinated for this.
- 12:14So we are moving back into what works for the United States of
- 12:20America and what that is, is having full control over the
- 12:25Western Hemisphere, looking to do good in the other hemispheres
- 12:31in in the old continent and in Asia.
- 12:33But not by shaping them to our way of life in America, but by
- 12:39telling them you are the Chinese, you are the Japanese,
- 12:42you are the Turkish, you are the Russians.
- 12:44You have your own cultures. We believe our culture and our
- 12:48economy and everything else is, is better than yours.
- 12:50But we will not come and, and and try to change you by nation
- 12:55building or toppling. We are here to extend our hand.
- 12:59We will not be suckers anymore in terms of financing all of
- 13:06your mistakes. And on the flip side, we will
- 13:08not ask you to become US. And and so I think that that is
- 13:14really the change. We are going back to what made
- 13:16America really rich between the 1870s and the 1910s when you saw
- 13:21the Rockefellers and the JP Morgan's and all these
- 13:24industrialists, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, the Wright
- 13:29Brothers, etcetera. This is where America excels,
- 13:33where it can innovate for the rest of the world, but not
- 13:40believe that it has to do for the world what it has to do for
- 13:45itself. So that is I think that the the
- 13:48crux of it, that's why you're seeing so much manufacturing
- 13:51coming back to America. You know, you have the the first
- 13:54aluminum smelter in 50 years, you're doing, you're producing
- 13:57more steel than Japan for the first time in 25 years.
- 14:01You have 18 trillion in foreign investments committed.
- 14:06And I think that that's just a start.
- 14:08The second part of this is what will happen when GDP starts
- 14:13sprinting 456 percent. Americans will be like, shocked.
- 14:19And then you'll have a Fed chair that says, I don't see the
- 14:22problem. Why are we going to stop this
- 14:25boom economy? Because what what Bernanke and
- 14:30Yellen and Powell taught Wall Street and America general is
- 14:37when you have rising wages, that creates inflation.
- 14:40That is so much bullshit it's, it's not even funny.
- 14:44When you have rising wages, that means the money is flowing from
- 14:47Wall Street to Main Street. And I think that Warsh will not
- 14:51stop that. In fact, you may see higher and
- 14:53higher GDP prints with lower and lower rates.
- 14:57And if that creates productive deflation, that's what you're
- 15:00going to have in America. So I, I really think that in the
- 15:03next 3-4 months, there'll be a lot of uncertainty regarding all
- 15:07of this. That's why I think gold and
- 15:09silver will trade sideways for, for a bit here and churn, maybe
- 15:13even the dollar gets stronger as, as portfolio get portfolio
- 15:17portfolios get liquidated a little bit because when you
- 15:21settle mostly US equities, you're selling dollars.
- 15:24So there's going to be a technical demand for dollars,
- 15:28but right after Warsh is allowed to give his vision, I think
- 15:35he'll have a lot of clarity as to where America's going.
- 15:39And in, in my, in my view, that will actually be the restart of
- 15:44the second phase of this bull market for silver and gold.
- 15:47So, so as I'm listening to you speak and you give a great,
- 15:51like, I think overview of a lot of things that are going on that
- 15:57I think represent that we're going through a period of change
- 16:00that maybe, you know, me, I'm 55 years old.
- 16:03And a lot of our viewers, like we're going through a period of
- 16:05change right now like we've never really seen in our
- 16:08lifetime. Like I've, you know, from 1970
- 16:11when I was born up until feels like two or three years ago,
- 16:16things were pretty stable. But it feels like now over the
- 16:20last couple years and especially now based on what you're saying,
- 16:23that we really are going through a period of massive change that
- 16:28a lot of us may not realize until we've already gone through
- 16:32it. But but the, but the
- 16:35conventional wisdom, Leor has always been that liquidity and
- 16:38money printing are, are good for gold and silver.
- 16:42And what I'm hearing you say is that maybe that won't be the
- 16:45case. And correct me if I'm wrong, but
- 16:47maybe with this new regime and this new kind of vision for the
- 16:50United States that we won't have as much as many bailout programs
- 16:55and liquidity injections. How do gold and silver do well
- 16:59in this new environment? Well, the the real important
- 17:06thing to understand is that gold and silver have been LED through
- 17:11this 55 year period of Fiat currency system to a place that
- 17:16is not natural for them. Silver is not even money
- 17:20anymore. Some people buy it as because
- 17:24they say this is a precious metal.
- 17:25I want to own it, but governments have made it so that
- 17:29it's not money. And so and even gold to a degree
- 17:34is, is a reserve, but it's not you can't really now you have
- 17:39countries settling in in, in gold.
- 17:41That's true. But they're they're not even
- 17:43settling in in silver. So my answer to you is as the
- 17:49dollar continues to lose it's hyper globalized era role, which
- 17:57is where it's been from 1999, from 1993 onwards, when you had
- 18:02Clinton opening China into the World Trade Organization, you
- 18:06had basically after 2008 a whole new financial system.
- 18:11These are all symptoms of a bad system and as we're going and
- 18:18correcting that system, you will see gold continuing to assert
- 18:22its place and there's no fair market value where you can think
- 18:29of of gold. What you can say is, OK, how
- 18:31much would it take to cover 100% of the currency supply, 50% of
- 18:35the currency supply, 20% of it? You can, you can make your own
- 18:38fair market value metrics for it, but there is really nothing
- 18:44that is important. What's that's definite, what's
- 18:49really the best way to do it is to say how much gold do you need
- 18:53to own personally and then stick to that program.
- 18:56For me, I have always maintained that I want either 24 months
- 19:03worth of family, household living expenses in saved in gold
- 19:07and silver. In other words, just to give you
- 19:09like a round Number, let's say it's $5000 a month of limited
- 19:13expenses, so 24, that's $120,000.
- 19:16And then you convert that to Fiat physical gold and silver.
- 19:20You can do your own kind of mix. And when that number becomes
- 19:26less than 5% of your net worth, you should increase it to 5% on
- 19:29your net worth. And that has always been the
- 19:31goal for me. So, so I carry in ounces in
- 19:36other words, now silver because it's demonetized in such a large
- 19:41degree, it has so much upside. If any government even one would
- 19:46reinstitute it as money that would make the the price surely
- 19:52double from here to go to towards the 150 a 160.
- 19:56So I think that is really important to to realize that
- 19:59that upside still exists with silver that re rating as money.
- 20:05So, so will they work better or or less better if there's no
- 20:11bailouts is a is a great question.
- 20:14But the the answer is we have 5000 years of gold and silver to
- 20:23rely on. And what we know is that they
- 20:26are great at holding their value.
- 20:28And that is why. And that is why you should own
- 20:32them, but not the way that, that you think in your mind, you're
- 20:38owning them because, because Fiat currencies are debasing.
- 20:42What happens if you go to a system where where Fiat
- 20:46currencies are not debasing as much?
- 20:48The answer is still the same. If you want to hold your, your
- 20:52purchasing power, you, you need to own some gold and silver.
- 20:56So, but nominally, a lot of things can happen.
- 21:00Yeah, Yeah, I think it's a difficult concept for for
- 21:04anyone, right. There's 2000 people that are
- 21:07joining us live right now, even me, right.
- 21:09And I'm, I've been a gold and silver bug enthusiast for 20
- 21:13years. I still think of this ounce of
- 21:17silver in terms I price it in U.S. dollars like like like the
- 21:22dollar is the is the money you would say and the reality is
- 21:26different, right? Like you said for 5000 years,
- 21:29gold and silver had been the money.
- 21:31Why not price the dollar in terms of gold and silver if that
- 21:34makes sense? Like.
- 21:35Or, or even better, you should look at at the Dow to gold
- 21:40ratio. Yeah, yeah.
- 21:43Right now when you hear President Trump saying, hey, the
- 21:45the S&P 500 is trading at all time highs.
- 21:48It had fifty all time highs last year.
- 21:50It's true, but in gold terms it's in a bear market.
- 21:55It's back to where it was like 6 years ago.
- 21:59So again, the idea is when you own gold and silver you retain
- 22:07real value and not nominal value.
- 22:09So if the market tanks 30% but gold only goes down 10% in a
- 22:14deflation, you've done much better by owning gold or silver.
- 22:19So, and I, and I think maybe another way to say it is gold
- 22:22and silver are the measuring stick, right?
- 22:25Like I think we sometimes get confused and look at the Dow or
- 22:28look at the dollar or the yen or whatever.
- 22:30No, gold and silver have always been the measuring stick, right?
- 22:34These things over any extended period of time have come and
- 22:39gone and in gold and silver, like you said, right, have been
- 22:42around for five, 5000 years. I know you're running short on
- 22:46time, Leor. What?
- 22:48What? What did I forget to ask you?
- 22:50What else do we need to communicate with the audience
- 22:53today? Well, I think if you're asking
- 22:57for some sort of a closing remark, I, I and and my wife got
- 23:04a new cat. I.
- 23:06Don't know you can. Hear that?
- 23:07It's it's funny. I can.
- 23:09Hear it Oriental, it's an Oriental cat and it's I didn't
- 23:12even know it was here. It's a it's like a little puppy.
- 23:16It's OK, you can. You can show them to the
- 23:17audience if you want. It's funny because one of our
- 23:19it. Looks like a bat.
- 23:20You don't want to see that thing.
- 23:22One of our cats broke into the basement during the first 3
- 23:25minutes of our live stream. I thought, oh God, I've.
- 23:28Never had this. Knock the camera over or
- 23:30something so. Well, I, I, I think, I think
- 23:34that really if you, if you think about 2026 and what you have
- 23:40between a new Fed chairman that is gonna rewrite and, and it's
- 23:45not just the Fed chairman, it's the way the Fed works.
- 23:47It's the way the Treasury works. It's the way that America goes
- 23:51back to work. I think that you are heading
- 23:55into if this is done right, into a prosperity period, not just
- 23:59for America but for the rest of the world.
- 24:01Because for the last 30 years, America was selling its parts
- 24:06off. The elites were enjoying life,
- 24:09but the average American was going nowhere.
- 24:12He was becoming just a normal westerner.
- 24:16He didn't have anything unique to to to bring to the table.
- 24:20He was sacrificed in endless wars in the Middle East.
- 24:26Is the rules change on him? On housing, He saw housing go
- 24:30down by 50%. He saw everything.
- 24:34If America goes back to greatness, that is great for
- 24:37everybody. Yeah.
- 24:38When America is great, it's great for the world.
- 24:42It's even great for China and for Russia.
- 24:44So that's nuts. I'm sorry about this.
- 24:49You're. Fine, they can't.
- 24:52They can't. Wants to.
- 24:53Might have something to say, no doubt about it.
- 24:55Might, it might be looking for some silver under the under the
- 25:00Metras. I think Ron, I'll, I'll, I'll
- 25:03let you go. And if you want to check out
