- 2:26You know, I I Look, we love our metals.
- 2:28We love. Our Gold, silver and platinum
- 2:31but. This triggered me this morning.
- 2:33Let me read this to you. It's a.
- 2:35Brief brief little article, but it's chocked full of of
- 2:39pertinent information that. Relates directly to the silver
- 2:43and gold price Yahoo Finance U. S stock futures fall with the
- 2:50feds Next move in focus. the Fed are, I don't want to say enemy,
- 2:55but not our friend, right? Stock market news, OK, stocks
- 3:00were pointed lower. I'm not going to read that, do
- 3:02you? The Dow Jones Industrial
- 3:03average, blah, blah, blah, blah. That's not what we want to talk
- 3:06about, stocks. Are coming under pressure after
- 3:10data unexpectedly showed US services activity at a six month
- 3:16high in August. It's the Bidenomics economic
- 3:19miracle at work again, right? Do you believe it?
- 3:23I don't believe it. We know the.
- 3:25Real numbers. We know that's a bunch of.
- 3:27Bulk A pookie. But anyhow, that's seen as a
- 3:31sign of resilience amongst consumers and in the broader
- 3:35economy amid higher borrowing cost.
- 3:38Meanwhile, Gains and Treasuries weighed on tech stocks but eased
- 3:43slightly on Thursday. So they're telling us guys, that
- 3:46the Fed OK, is going to be. Able to raise rates.
- 3:50OK, I forgot to tell you something critical.
- 3:52The next Fed meeting September 19th and 20th.
- 3:55What is today? Today is a Thursday, September
- 3:597th. That's going to be a critical
- 4:05big Fed meeting. So that's what.
- 4:01Not next week, but the following.
- 4:06And now? People are starting to say, but
- 4:08the US economy's doing so great. Look, we had these great August
- 4:13whatever bulk of Bookie. Numbers that they put out.
- 4:16The feds going to raise rates if that happens?
- 4:19That's going to be bad for the silver price and gold price.
- 4:22But we gotta ask ourselves, are is the consumer?
- 4:26Really doing that? Well, let's revisit all the data
- 4:30we know right? Shipping Rates Shipping rates
- 4:33Shipping volume down 10% is the. Consumer doing that well,
- 4:37they're buying 10% less products.
- 4:40The consumers have no more. Savings The San Francisco Fred
- 4:44Fed Federal Reserve just told us the other day that people have
- 4:50gone from having 2 trillion in savings down to 200.
- 4:53So they spent through their savings and you know, you know
- 4:57and yes. I have a picture for you.
- 4:58I drew a picture. I'm gonna show you that in a
- 5:00minute. But you know, you know, on top
- 5:03of. That the credit card data.
- 5:05Credit card debt at all time high.
- 5:06Credit card rates at all time high?
- 5:08But the consumers doing great, it's driving the US economy.
- 5:12I call BBC Bulkapuke OK now, but but that's the narrative.
- 5:19We got to deal with that. That's the narrative on Wall
- 5:23Street now. Then they talk.
- 5:24About Apple, Apple computer, you know Apple?
- 5:27Do you have an Apple phone? Maybe you're watching me on an
- 5:30Apple phone. Hi, Apple.
- 5:32Hi to all you basement dwellers. I think it's awesome you're here
- 5:35with me on a Thursday. Not a Friday, Thursday morning
- 5:39to look at what's going on out there.
- 5:41Put it all together. Is it supportive of your idea?
- 5:45Your thesis if you want to use a fancy.
- 5:48Word to own silver, gold and platinum.
- 5:51That's what we're digging into. We're going to talk about Apple
- 5:55in a minute, because it's. It's it's a bubble, guys.
- 5:58It's all I can say. It's a bubble.
- 6:00I lived through the tech bubble. I was actually in the tech
- 6:04industry back in the mid 90s to late 90s, very involved in the
- 6:08tech industry. We are in a bubble again.
- 6:11I don't care what anybody says and I'm going.
- 6:13To give you irrefutable proof of that later on the run up.
- 6:17Now they. Talk about oil.
- 6:19The run up in oil. Prices that cast doubt on the.
- 6:22Feds push to cool inflation. OK, oil has been skyrocketing.
- 6:41We've covered that ad nauseam. That is causing inflation.
- 6:31All right, there's so much in this article.
- 6:33There's only two more sentences. But we are in an environment
- 6:37where inflation is not going away.
- 6:39Gas prices are going up. Oil is the.
- 6:43Lifeblood of the world economy. It's in everything.
- 6:47It affects everything. It affects food prices because
- 6:51it makes. Transportation go up and and it
- 6:53caught I think they. Burned, you know, fuel in those
- 6:56big tractors off? They asked my buddy Slick
- 6:58Willie. He's a big farmer.
- 6:59Owns hundreds of acres anyway. Oil affects everything.
- 7:04Oil affects. Us directly at the gas pumps,
- 7:06right? You know you're filling your
- 7:07pump up your tank. And if you're anything like me
- 7:10or the same, please, God. Stop at $50 and then it doesn't
- 7:13stop at 50. Then it goes to 60 and you're
- 7:16like, it can't be much worse. And then it goes all the way to
- 7:1968 dollars or $78. Or whatever it is.
- 7:22Oil affects everything. That's inflation.
- 7:25Let's just quickly review Stagflation.
- 7:28I'm even hearing some of the. Other Youtubers have you notice
- 7:31this the other analysts. Out there like you and me,
- 7:35right? We're ahead of the curve.
- 7:36We've been talking about stagflation for nine months now.
- 7:39All of a sudden, everybody. Wants to talk about stagflation,
- 7:43and they're even using what us bait basement dwellers.
- 7:46Like to say about it? We like to say, and we invented
- 7:49this. It's the most fertile ground for
- 7:52the price of silver. And gold look no for look at the
- 7:5570s look at the 80s Look at the math behind it.
- 7:58OK, so we are moving into this stagflationary environment.
- 8:03Coin Shop, Chris. I ring the bell 10 times when we
- 8:07get to 100 thumbs up. If you don't like it, mute baby,
- 8:14I'm all over the place. Little techie break, we can
- 8:33relax. I'm telling you, though, I am.
- 8:16I am fired up this morning. This little article got me
- 8:20going. Let me go.
- 8:21Uh. Oh, hold on.
- 8:22Here. Hold on here.
- 8:25OK, now then. It touches on this.
- 8:29Bear with me, guys. Technical.
- 8:33For a second, OK, so oil's an issue.
- 8:36What's the other issue that is getting headlines now?
- 8:40Have you heard this one? China trade figures failed to
- 8:44ease worries about sluggishness. I'm gonna walk.
- 8:48These together in the world. 'S second second biggest economy
- 8:53HM interesting questions are swirling.
- 8:55Do you see on questions swirling about whether the slowdown in
- 8:59China could be a quote UN quote? Top risk to the US economy and
- 9:06we're going to talk about China a little more in a second about
- 9:08the dollar, because the dollar has been killing us.
- 9:11And I do have a picture for you, don't worry.
- 9:14Added to a fresh batch of downbeat data from.
- 9:19Europe, Europe, our friends in Europe is, you know, I don't
- 9:22think the unite is the United. Kingdom a part of Europe.
- 9:25Is that considered Europe? I am bad.
- 9:26I'm showing my. I apologize, but you know,
- 9:29Europe like Germany, Spain, Italy, right, just just some
- 9:34little time they're having problems.
- 9:36All right. So let's just wrap that up in a
- 9:39nice little package. China is slowing down.
- 9:42Europe is slowing down, but somehow the United.
- 9:46States Right manages to have this awesome growing economy in
- 9:51the. Federal Reserve and Jerome
- 9:53Powell in 12 short days. Are going to raise interest
- 9:57rates and kill gold and silver. That's the I call.
- 10:02I call. I don't know where this word
- 10:05came from today. Bulkapookie OK, we are going to
- 10:08cuss down here but I am urinated off.
- 10:11OK? I'm not happy.
- 10:12About this, that suddenly again, we're getting more of this.
- 10:16Hawk. Hawk.
- 10:16Hawk talk regarding the Fed. That's a big, big, big warning
- 10:21right now. We got more.
- 10:23We got a lot more. Let's talk briefly about the
- 10:28most important the Moat. The bond market is way bigger
- 10:32than the stock market, guys. We're.
- 10:33Going to talk about the bubble in the stock.
- 10:34Market, I'll get to that, but the bond market.
- 10:38Is the granddaddy of everything 10 year bond yield.
- 10:43Is the critical number for you to watch.
- 10:45If you watch anything, watch the 10 year bond yield.
- 10:49That's the interest rate that the government pays on 10 year
- 10:52bonds. You can go to Yahoo Finance,
- 10:55pull up that page, and it's all along the.
- 10:56Top It's got the different stuff and it's even.
- 10:59Got gold and silver up there? Which I always found interesting
- 11:02if gold and. Silver are such barbarous
- 11:04relics. I'm going to get back to the 10
- 11:06year bond yield. Why the heck does Yahoo Finance?
- 11:10Keep it right at the top of the page.
- 11:13Right next to the Dow and the S&P and the 10.
- 11:16Year, bond yield and everything else.
- 11:18If you thought about that, we're not barbarous relics.
- 11:20We're the base of all money. Gold and silver are the base.
- 11:24The world's never gone off the gold standard.
- 11:27I digress. The 10 year bond yield is
- 11:29pushing against. Last I looked this morning, 4.3,
- 11:34it's not been that. High since 2007, 2000.
- 11:39What does that mean? That means interest.
- 11:41Rates obviously are high, but that means it becomes
- 11:45increasingly more. Expensive for the US government
- 11:48to finance all the. They have 17 trillion in debt
- 11:51that. Needs to be refinanced over the
- 11:53next. Two years?
- 11:55Are you aware of that right? Interest expense for our
- 11:58government is now running it like 1 trillion.
- 12:01Just to pay the interest. That'd be like if you had.
- 12:04A big credit card debt in just the interest.
- 12:07On the credit card debt was a trillion dollars right?
- 12:10Or if you had 100K in credit card debt right now, guess what
- 12:13You'd be paying 20K a year in interest.
- 12:16Just interest that is is constricting the government.
- 12:20Those high bond yields are killing the banks.
- 12:23We had the banking crisis back in March and April and back then
- 12:28the 10 year bond yield had only gotten to about 4.154.2.
- 12:32Thank you Shadow Work for the Super Chat.
- 12:34I forgot I haven't begged for Super Chats today.
- 12:37Super chats are always appreciated, never expected.
- 12:39Thank you very much and I love the thumbs up.
- 12:42Please press the thumbs up right now.
- 12:46I'm waiting. OK, there you go.
- 12:48You get 2 bell rings for that now.
- 12:51The banks are under so much stress right now.
- 12:56Because of the 10, I gotta move my microphone.
- 12:59We pick it up. Because of the two year 10 year
- 13:0110 year bond yield, the banks are under a lot of stress.
- 13:05But. You don't know that because they
- 13:07don't have to report it, right? They say that they're holding
- 13:11all these bonds on their on their.
- 13:13Books held to maturity, meaning, well, we may have lost our
- 13:17rears, we may have been slaughtered in all these.
- 13:20Bonds we bought, but we don't have to recognize that that
- 13:23happen. We can.
- 13:24We can look the other way. I mean, don't you wish you could
- 13:29do that? That's like if you bought a
- 13:32bunch of stock and a company, like maybe a mining company two
- 13:36years ago and the value of it went down by half, right?
- 13:40And your your wife. Ask you how's your stock doing,
- 13:42that you put all of our money into and you say?
- 13:45Oh, honey, it's just doing fine. We're holding it to maturity.
- 13:49It'll come back, you know, nonetheless, and and and
- 13:52hopefully it will. I'm I'm rooting for you, by the
- 13:54way, because I'm kind of in the same boat, but nonetheless,
- 13:57nonetheless. The reality is the banks, they
- 14:00took your money and bought all those bonds, loaned it out on
- 14:04all that commercial real estate. Your money.
- 14:07If you thought about that, so the money.
- 14:10That you gave them. They invested and they invested
- 14:13it. Poorly, because the commercial
- 14:15real estate's now worth, you know, 2530% less, and a lot of
- 14:20the bonds are worth 2020 530% less.
- 14:23So if you collectively all went to the bank.
- 14:27Oh, and by the way, that kind of happened back in March and April
- 14:30with. Silicon Valley Bank and the
- 14:32other ones go to the bank. And what your money back?
- 14:35The bank's going to be like, ah, we ain't got it.
- 14:39And I'll say this one last time, this is not a banking show and
- 14:42not all the banks are not. I'm not saying they're.
- 14:44All going broke or anything like that.
- 14:47But if your bank was in trouble, don't expect that you're going
- 14:50to walk into the lobby and next to the little.
- 14:52Tray of cookies, There's going to be a.
- 14:54Sign that says. We just wanted to warn you that
- 14:56we're in financial. They don't do that.
- 14:59OK, thank you to our sponsor Pin Becks online bullion dealer.
- 15:06Check them out. OK, if you're.
- 15:08Looking to buy silver, gold or platinum?
- 15:11You. Got to check out Pin Becks,
- 15:12you'll find. The best prices, OK, And one of
- 15:17the best. Or the best customer experience
- 15:19out there? I worked with them long before.
- 15:23I say it every time. Before I was a customer, before
- 15:27they became a sponsor of Ron's basement.
- 15:30I won't take on sponsors of any mining company unless I own a
- 15:34lot of the stock myself or a bullion dealer unless I've
- 15:38worked with them. Before they sponsor me because I
- 15:42eat my own cooking, right? If.
- 15:43I was a restaurant. I'd be eating at my own
- 15:46restaurant and I definitely can recommend pin backs 100%.
- 15:50I think they're the best now. Oh there's more the 10 year bond
- 15:55then we're going to get off this.
- 15:56I'll. Be quick, guys.
- 15:57The 10 year bond go look it up. A lot of you already know this.
- 16:01If you don't like I said, go to Yahoo Finance, go to the.
- 16:03Top there's a little bar. Scroll over, you'll find the 10
- 16:06year bond. You got to watch that businesses
- 16:09are in. Big trouble, Okay, Big trouble
- 16:14with these new. Rates we've got so much debt in
- 16:17the business community that and it it.
- 16:19Only goes for three to five year terms.
- 16:21We're going to have rolling waves of new debt that
- 16:25businesses are going to need to be refinancing and the rates in
- 16:29many cases. Are going to be twice as high.
- 16:31It's going to hit the economy and then of course, consumers.
- 16:36Overall debt levels in the United States, whether you're
- 16:40talking government business, consumers are so high.
- 16:43It's crazy. Let's talk about the DXY and I
- 16:45got a picture. For you, I got a picture of
- 16:48pictures worth 1000 words. But the DXY is the dollar index
- 16:53right? The 10 year bond, the Fed, the
- 16:55dollar. Strong dollar.
- 16:57You probably heard it right all the mainstream beat media
- 17:00people, now the. Dollar strength is blah blah
- 17:03blah and that when the. Dollar gets stronger.
- 17:06It's called an inverse relationship, opposite
- 17:09relationship. When the dollar gets quote UN
- 17:12quote stronger the. Price of silver and gold and
- 17:16platinum for our friend Neil will go down, down, down, down,
- 17:19down. And that's exactly what's been
- 17:21going on now. For what?
- 17:23The last two months. Roughly, the dollar index had
- 17:26gone down to about a. 100 but now it's up last I checked this
- 17:29morning, right at 10. Five, but but you know, you
- 17:35know. We got to look at the good news
- 17:37too, right? I mean, we don't just.
- 17:40I like this. Hold on a second.
- 17:43Hold on. Bear with me.
- 17:45Do you guys like when I hold this up close?
- 17:48OK. Do you feel closer to me right
- 17:49now? Because we just don't want to
- 17:51talk about the bad news. I want to point out something
- 17:54interesting and good about the dollar index and I even have a
- 17:58picture. For you.
- 17:59Put that back down. Nobody else is talking about
- 18:03this. This is a basement dweller
- 18:05exclusive. OK.
- 18:07And. Here's a picture.
- 18:09Look at this. Can you see that?
- 18:13There we go. That's the DXY, the dollar index
- 18:16from 1980. 5 All the way through today.
- 18:20So when you look at that and today I got to find a better way
- 18:25to. Do this today.
- 18:26We're at 105 Okay guys. That makes.
- 18:29The price of silver and gold go down.
- 18:35It was like 120. We're all the way over there at
- 18:331:05 in 1980. Okay.
- 18:38But what do you notice about this okay?
- 18:42If somebody says that looks like a set of, you know.
- 18:45You're you're you're banned from the channel because I just said
- 18:49it anyway, 120. Then it went down when it's
- 18:53down. Here You're right, 8090.
- 18:56It's good for gold. Then it went up.
- 18:57Boop around 2000, right? And then it went back down.
- 19:03Yeah. Anyway, and then now we're at
- 19:071:05. Look at that.
- 19:09What's key to remember? Right.
- 19:11That's 40 years, 40 years. And I roughly estimated, without
- 19:17any scientific calculation that those blue.
- 19:19Parts were were above 100 are only like 6-7 eight.
- 19:26Years out of that Whole 40 years?
- 19:28So where the and then And there's even more, there's a.
- 19:31Double kicker about this, where the dollar is right now is is
- 19:36traditionally high. There's a double, triple kicker.
- 19:39I got to remember both of these #1.
- 19:43It's just a tiny. Part of that 40 year that we've
- 19:46been this high, so I. Think the argument can be made
- 19:48the dollars high when the dollar goes back down?
- 19:51That'll. Be good for gold and silver.
- 19:54Oh, shoot. There was a double.
- 19:55There's Well, the other kicker is this.
- 19:58China is. Irate about the.
- 20:01Strong dollar. They are making all kinds of
- 20:04noise. They're saying they're going to
- 20:06sell dollars. Sell.
- 20:07Treasuries weren't. We know they're already doing
- 20:09that. That they want to support.
- 20:11There you want China is angry, guys.
- 20:14China is the second biggest economy in the world.
- 20:17China is part of this, but there's some new.
- 20:18Organization that was formed. I've been hearing people talk
- 20:22about it. Maybe some of you basement
- 20:23dwellers know know what it's called?
- 20:25Cinder blocks or I don't know Lego at all bricks.
- 20:31That's right. Now we remember, right?
- 20:33They're they're becoming very powerful.
- 20:35They don't like I missed the Super Chat.
- 20:38I'll get to that. Thank you, Chris.
- 20:40They don't like the fact that. Right now, right now that the
- 20:44dollar is going up. So not only are we in a.
- 20:47Position Oh, I know. The other double kicker.
- 20:50Triple kicker where? The dollar.
- 20:52Is in in in in rare high territory.
- 20:55But the Chinese are angry. Okay.
- 21:03The other thing to remember, just as a gold and silver
- 21:06investor, this is critical. I've talked about this.
- 21:09You're a basement. Dweller, you may know this
- 21:11already, but it bears for us to review.
- 21:13That dollar index the DX. Y is an average, it's measuring
- 21:19the dollar against other currencies.
- 21:21The, the the the the Japanese yen, the excuse me the euro
- 21:28okay, it's like you've I'm okay it's like comparing the patients
- 21:32in a Hospice ward or the best. Horse in the glue factory, OK.
- 21:37It's like a teeter totter. You know what a teeter totter
- 21:40is? Did you remember when you were a
- 21:41kid? It's good.
- 21:42It's good. We go.
- 21:43Back to your childhood. Remember the teeter totter?
- 21:45Right. You were on one side and a big
- 21:48chunky kid Get on the other one and you went flying up and vice
- 21:52versa. Anyway, it's also like a teeter.
- 21:55Totter on one side, you got the. Dollar on the other side, you
- 21:57got the. Euro, the in and everything else
- 21:59and they go. Up and down.
- 22:00They're like teeter totters, but the key.
- 22:02To remember is that fulcrum, that center point, right?
- 22:05That supports everything. If it were a teeter totter,
- 22:08it's. Sinking into the sand, it
- 22:11doesn't matter. Yeah, you're comparing them both
- 22:12to each other, but they're both. Simultaneously going down in
- 22:16value because of money printing because of the Jerome Powell's
- 22:20of the world, the Federal Reserve.
- 22:22And the whatever, Whatever her name is, Christina Lagarde,
- 22:25Isn't that the head of the Euro Central Bank?
- 22:27Whatever the heck they call it, they're.
- 22:29All going down you you compare the teeter totter.
- 22:34To gold and silver, which are solid.
- 22:36Thank you, Sean are for the Super.
- 22:37Chat my friend the way I like to talk about it.
- 22:40Then I got to recognize the other super chat as well is
- 22:42think about this guys. If there was a giant pile of
- 22:45dollars, euros. And yen sitting next to you
- 22:48right now in your house. OK, a giant pile.
- 22:51Hey, you're Rich. Quote UN quote.
- 22:53You got a bunch of. Paper.
- 22:54Toilet paper, anyway. And that was all the euro.
- 22:58Yen and and dollars in the world.
- 23:01And there was also a pile of gold and.
- 23:03Silver which was all the gold and.
- 23:05Silver in the world, you can't print more gold and silver, but
- 23:10all those euros? And yens.
- 23:12Heck, even back. Just in the little health
- 23:14crisis. We had back in, thank you, Tony,
- 23:17back in 2020. They increased the amount of
- 23:20that paper by 40%. They can't increase the gold and
- 23:23silver. Remained essentially the same.
- 23:26That's the critical key. Thing for us to remember.
- 23:29Thank you, Tony. Stilly.
- 23:31And that the dollar historically is high, the DXY is high.
- 23:35OK, hold on. I missed some super chats.
- 23:39I apologize. I get a little carried away.
- 23:42But take a deep breath. Sean R Thank you for the Super
- 23:44chat, Tony Stilly. Jake, hey, hey Jake.
- 23:48And then Jake right now, buddy, you get all the artwork.
- 23:52I've got the other. One, I'm going to get them off
- 23:53in the mail to you, my friend. Thank you.
- 23:56So much. All right, guys. 11 more Thing
- 24:00or two more things We need to talk Look, talk about OK and the
- 24:04Chinese are mad. Let's just talk about the
- 24:06overall. Stock markets we We aren't real.
- 24:10Technical right. I understand financials I I
- 24:14would say, but I have a degree in accounting.
- 24:16I work for a BIG4 accounting firm.
- 24:17Thank you shadow work. If you think that the.
- 24:21General markets aren't in a bubble.
- 24:25You got another thing coming now if you own Apple stock.
- 24:30I'm not giving financial advice. I'm not giving.
- 24:33But if you think these tech stocks aren't in bubble
- 24:36territory. Let me give you a very easy
- 24:39calculation, Apple. I did this this morning.
- 24:41Apple Computer has almost a $3 trillion market cap.
- 24:47That means all the stock they have when you combine it is
- 24:50worth $3 trillion. They're the They're trailing 12.
- 24:55That means the last 12 months of sales that they've recorded.
- 24:59If you put them all together, the last 12 months, 387 billion,
- 25:04which is an impressive number, however.
- 25:07The market cap of the company is 7 1/2 times their annual sales.
- 25:15Let me put that in perspective. For you that means that if Apple
- 25:19computer. OK, for the next 7 1/2 years was
- 25:23and this is make believe. OK, but let's just say make
- 25:26believe they were able to. Sell continue selling at that
- 25:30rate and had no expenses, which again is fairy land.
- 25:34It would take 7 1/2. Years for them to return the
- 25:37money to their investors. OK, that's how crazy.
- 25:41And out of whack I have to point this out.
- 25:44This is a. Fact, you can look it up during
- 25:46the tech bubble back in the late 90s, OK, after the tech bubble.
- 25:51Burst Scott Mcneely, the CE 0. Of Sun Microsystems.
- 25:55This is a famous interview that he.
- 25:57Did he pointed out in his company, Sun Microsystems was
- 26:01one of the tech bubble stocks. He said it was crazy.
- 26:05What was going on? He said.
- 26:06At one point, the value of Sun Microsystems got up to almost 10
- 26:11times price to sales ratio. That's not.
- 26:15Price to earnings guys, That's price to.
- 26:18Sales, OK. And he said the same thing, he
- 26:21said. That meant for 10 years if we
- 26:23had no expenses. None, which is Fantasyland.
- 26:26But Even so, it would take 10 years to for us to.
- 26:29Return all that money to the investors.
- 26:32He's like, it was insane and right now we have.
- 26:34Apple it's 7 1/2. I haven't looked at Microsoft.
- 26:37I haven't looked at some of the other ones.
- 26:39I I'm sure that they are in a lot of ways just as obscene.
- 26:44And I just wanted to point out that if you apply those same
- 26:47numbers to a lot of the. Precious metal mining stocks
- 26:49like I looked at. Fortuna Silver, which is one
- 26:52that I own. Fortuna, which put out great
- 26:56news today. Great news earlier in the week.
- 26:59OK. They're at a price to sales
- 27:01ratio. Around 1:00.
- 27:03OK, if they were valued. The same way as Apple.
- 27:06They would be 7 times higher. Man, you guys are awesome.
- 27:09This has been great. I'm going to be back at 11.
- 27:11I just got fired up this morning about what I'm seeing out there
- 27:15in the Fed. We got a big deal coming, right?
- 27:18What is it, a week from Wednesday of next week?
- 27:21This is going to be critical to see how they play this.
- 27:24During the next 10-12 days, we're going to go into what's
- 27:27called a blackout. Period, in case you didn't know
- 27:29what that means. That means all those Fed
- 27:31governors can't talk. And I got to ring the cowbell
- 27:40all you. Basement dwellers know that when
- 27:42we get the 200 thumbs up, we ring the cowbell.
- 27:44I can't believe 500 of you. I am honored.
- 27:48This has been awesome. It's going to be an interesting
- 27:51two weeks as we. Head into this Fed beating, OK,
- 27:54And again, blackout period, they won't be out.
- 27:57You know, what they do is they send out all the the regional
- 28:00Fed governors from St. Louis, Kansas City and San
- 28:03Francisco and Boston, and they go to fancy lunches and they
- 28:06deliver speeches that usually torpedoes the price of.
- 28:10Gold and silver, as we know, especially over the.
- 28:12Last two years we're heading into some interesting times.
- 28:16We can't underestimate how oil. Is going to increase inflation.
- 28:21Oil is skyrocketing right now. OK, if we get inflation while at
- 28:27the same time a stagnating economy, you know, it's the S
- 28:31word stagflation everybody's. Talking about it now, you know
- 28:35you're a basement dweller you knew a little earlier.
- 28:38And and and soon they're going to wake up to the next point,
- 28:42which is stagflation means. Like nitrous oxide, I was never.
- 28:46A race car guy, but some of my friends were, you know, nitrous
- 28:51oxide for the price. Of silver and gold.
- 28:55Hey guys, like I said. I'll be back in two hours.
- 28:58I got a whole different subject to talk about.
- 29:00Bricks, gold backed currency. I've got a new.
- 29:03Perspective on what's going on. I learned something last night
- 29:06that was it was one of those aha moments.
- 29:10Regarding the bricks and the gold currency, I'm going to
- 29:13share that with you. I had another one of those aha
- 29:15moments yesterday when I was talking to Daniel Tinkum about
- 29:20the gold standard and you know, and I shared this with you
- 29:25yesterday for those of. You who missed it?
- 29:28I've. I've made this.
- 29:29Argument that we've never really gone off the gold.
- 29:31Standard in the world. And he brought up a good point
- 29:34that even right now in the United States, you could say.
- 29:37You know we're able our dollar we're.
- 29:40Legally able to convert our paper.
- 29:44You know Unicorn fart dust? We haven't said that for a
- 29:47while, right? You're able to go to your coin
- 29:49store and convert. Your paper into silver and gold.
- 29:53The dollar is still. Being measured right now against
- 29:57silver and gold, so you know to a certain.
- 30:00We can argue that we're still in an environment where we have the
- 30:04gold standard. Oh boy.
- 30:06Jake's custom parts. Thank you for your help, Annie
- 30:10Oakley. Let me.
- 30:13Get a drink of coffee. I made some big improvements to
- 30:22the Ron's basement show. It used to be I didn't have a
- 30:24microphone I could mute, and people complained about my
- 30:26slurping sound when I drank coffee.
