Latest / Financial Survival Network / The Great Precious Metals Catch-up Is Happening Now -- Michael Arries #6069
Transcript
- 0:00These things happen because gold and silver go up with inflation when we print too
- 0:05much of our fiat currency. You know, the metals that are real money,
- 0:08that are limited and supplied, they go up in value, and they
- 0:11don't go perfectly sideways up year after year with inflation. Sometimes they go,
- 0:16you know, down, go sideways, and then they have this big jump
- 0:19in this big catchup move, and we're kind of at that perfect storm.
- 0:22Now you are listening to Carrie Let's's Financial Survival Network, where you get valuable

- 0:46ever, and welcome. This is Financial Survival Network. I'm your host,
- 0:54Carrie Let's. Well, late gold prices have gone all over the place.
- 0:58They've gone the power ball one might stay and hey, how can that be?
- 1:04I thought that gold was a barbarous relic and silver was like, who
- 1:10needs silver when you have copper? Right? But Michael Arey's of the Nicol
- 1:15Vaney is here to explain to us exactly what's going on and why it took
- 1:19so long. Michael, It's great to have you back on the show.
- 1:22How are you well, I'm good, Carrie, thanks for having me on
- 1:25again. It's great to be here and interesting how things have changed. You
- 1:29know. I look back and when we talked before in February, we you
- 1:34know, you said on the show or titled the show precious Metals are worth
- 1:37the weight, and we kind of mentioned that in there, and honestly,
- 1:40I was thinking, all right, what's wrong? That's so fun? Yeah,
- 1:46but I was thinking, you know, yeah, we're we're we're soon
- 1:49to have a breakout. Something good's gonna happen here. It's been a long
- 1:52time, but you know, they're they're probably going to take off. I'm
- 1:55thinking, well, i'll see what happens later this year with the election whatever,
- 1:57and then you know, a month later in March, Gold starts to
- 2:00take off and never looks back. Now recently, I mean, you just
- 2:04had, you know, Craig Hemkeyon saying, oh, Silver's got to go
- 2:07about thirty. A couple days later, it goes above thirty. Not even
- 2:09trying to go back to thirty. It's just taken off. So it's interesting
- 2:14to see these acceleration phases in the metals when for so long you get a
- 2:19sideways move and just this up and down kind of going sideways, and you
- 2:23kind of think, oh, yeah, metals are never going to do anything,
- 2:24and then they take off. They're like, what's happening, what's going
- 2:28on? This is weird? Who I experts surprised? Expert surprised. But
- 2:35that's the thing, Carrie, this is normal. These things happen because gold
- 2:38and silver go up with inflation when we print too much of our fiat currency.
- 2:43You know, the metals that are real money, that are limited and
- 2:46supplied, they go up in value, and they don't go perfectly sideways up
- 2:50year after year with inflation. Sometimes they go you know down, go sideways,
- 2:53and then they have this big jump in this big ketchup move and we're
- 2:58kind of at that perfect storm now where you know, there's political dysfunction,
- 3:01there's distrust, there's potential war overseas, and really the FED is just kind
- 3:06of losing their mojo. You know, there's a lack of trust, a
- 3:09lack of faith that they can save this, that we can have a soft
- 3:12landing, and so you know, gold ahead of time is like, all
- 3:15right, well we need to go up now. You know, we're the
- 3:17safe haven asset. The market is buying that. But now it's ketchup mode.
- 3:22Now it's like, okay, gold should be much higher compared to the
- 3:25trillions and trillions of dollars we printed out of thin air. So now it
- 3:29has it's ketchup move and it looks like it goes straight up, and it's
- 3:32kind of fun to see that. But also it's not going to wait for
- 3:35us. People are late to the party at this point. Hey, if
- 3:38I look at the most good about housing but like just the most basic condo
- 3:46that could have purchased in nineteen seventy seven, in fact, my mother did
- 3:52for twenty one thousand. All right, Yeah, that that house is now
- 3:58selling well north of one hundred. So you're just using a multiplier of five
- 4:03back from when gold hit its peak in the eighties, and you know that's
- 4:12four thousand bucks, right, forty two fifty pardon my mat. Yeah,
- 4:17yeah, gold should go to four thousand to keep up with that condo,
- 4:20and it'll naturally do that to catch up to where it should be. Yeah,
- 4:25like you have to, you have to, you know your indicators.
- 4:27There's always these classical indicators of gold, right, Like they used to say
- 4:32one ounce by a fine man suit. Right, But like with all of
- 4:39the automation and stuff that happened, and the other countries, lower cost countries
- 4:44starting to produce higher quality garments, that measure lost its relevance to somewhat.
- 4:50Yes, for twenty three hundred bucks, you can buy a good suit,
- 4:55not like a like a hand seiler custom suit. Yeah, yeah, but
- 5:00really it's changed a lot. So you got to look at other indicators.
- 5:03One two of them that never fail are how many ounces of gold to buy
- 5:10your average home? Right now we're at like one hundred and fifty thereabouts,
- 5:15and the doubt of gold ratio right right, right, yep, those are
- 5:19indicators we look at. I think I've seen, you know, at different
- 5:23times it's around two hundred ounces of gold to buy an average single family home,
- 5:27you know, and maybe maybe it'll yeah yeah, and now it'll be
- 5:30a little bit less with gold prices going up, But that's the same I
- 5:34mean one hundred years ago, same amount of gold buys a house. Now,
- 5:39same amount of gold buys a house, you know, one hundred years
- 5:41ago, if you had two thousand or five thousand dollars to buy a house.
- 5:44We can't even buy a shed for that nowadays. So holding on to
- 5:48your dear cash for one hundred years can't buy a house, can't even buy
- 5:53shed. Holding onto that amount of gold for one hundred years, it still
- 5:56buys a house. So that's that's why it's real money. And yeah,
- 6:00it'll it'll go to where it's going to go. And then yeah, with
- 6:01the dow gold ratio, we're going to look at that for when to when
- 6:05to sell it when it's too high. You know, when we get it
- 6:08down into the low single digits, well then gold has probably done more than
- 6:13it's catchup move and maybe getting too high and let's rebalance, let's take some
- 6:16of those gains. But you know, if the dowt of gold ratio is
- 6:19over ten to one or twenty to one like it has been, it's gold
- 6:25is too cheap and you just have to buy it. It's just stupid cheap.
- 6:28Speaking of ratios gold to silver, what could you say about that?
- 6:32That one's interesting? Now, it's no, I was down to seventy five
- 6:36yesterday. What is my chart say seventy six right now? So yeah,
- 6:41so it's coming down it's been in the nineties, you know, in the
- 6:44last year or two, it's been in the eighties, the last couple of
- 6:46months. Now it's seventy five, so it is coming down significantly and looking
- 6:50at some of the price chart patterns and the structures it makes when you just
- 6:55chart out the gold silver ratio, it's starting to you know, to break
- 6:59out and it looks like it's really going to head down. Or you can
- 7:01flip it the other way and do a percentage of silver to the price of
- 7:04gold and it looks like it's breaking out and going up. But that one's
- 7:08been a significant change. I mean at mclavaney we watched that. We look
- 7:12for major turning points where we can switch from one metal to the other and
- 7:15increase our ounces, get free ounces when one metal has outperformed another, and
- 7:18we help our clients do that. So we absolutely watch the ratio and this
- 7:24is I think going to be another one of those times where it comes down
- 7:27quickly. It'll usually go up and stay up for a long long time where
- 7:30silver is undervalued and now Carrie, it's probably going to drop quickly. Silver's
- 7:34going to shoot up and then we can buy a bunch of extra free gold
- 7:39with our silver versus what we could get today for it. I like it.
- 7:44Yeah. Well, you know the problem with silver if you're having physical
- 7:46is it just is so heavy and it takes up so much space. Yeah,
- 7:50to physically secure it, which you should never do in your home,
- 7:55but everyone does. It's costly, it's probablematical and better. You know,
- 8:03you got a few ounce as of gold and they can easier hide it.
- 8:07Yeah. Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, you know, everyone's different.
- 8:11You know, clients that I talked to, there are so many people
- 8:13that they want to have that in their hands. They want to know that
- 8:16it's within arm's reach and I get that. I feel the same way,
- 8:20so, you know, but silver can get pretty heavy and bulky. We
- 8:24do have good storage depositories that we use that We've even gone out and audited
- 8:28our client's metals and seeing everything that's there and confirmed everything. So there are
- 8:33good storage options that we have. Taking delivery, I've had people that have
- 8:37taken tens of thousands of ounces of silver. I mean it's like half a
- 8:39ton of silver, but they just want it nearby and they want silver for
- 8:43the performance. But there are options, there are ways to logistically make it
- 8:48work well, so hey, so yeah, so silver. You know,
- 8:52Eric Sprout, one of the gurus of our space, says, three hundred
- 8:58dollars silver, is it possible? I think it's possible. I think mathematically
- 9:05five hundred is possible. And that's not you know, the fringe conspiracy theory
- 9:09number. Really just looking at the inflation adjusted high from nineteen eighty and the
- 9:16ratio it got to then and the amount of money out there. Now,
- 9:20you know, we can potentially see gold go ten to fifteen thousand dollars an
- 9:24ounce. That would just be it's high in nineteen eighty when it got to
- 9:28eight fifty briefly, and then looking at the money supply today. I mean
- 9:31back then you could have picked that number, and there was a guy,
- 9:35Jim Sinclair picked that number pretty close just looking at and I'd have to look
- 9:39back. I can't remember if he looked at M one or M two for
- 9:41the money supply and the amount of official reserves, which I don't know we
- 9:45can trust that nowadays, but you can kind of, you know he did.
- 9:48He came to that number, and if you do the same thing nowadays,
- 9:52it's ten or fifteen thousand dollars an ounce. Well, if gold goes
- 9:54to ten thousand, then what's silver? So nineteen eighty, you know what
- 9:58the ratio was at the high God, I want to say it was like
- 10:03fifteen to one or something very close, very very close. One seventeen to
- 10:09one. Oh, I knew it was like ridiculously low bear to current numbers.
- 10:15Yeah, and again that's a peak point. You know we're going to
- 10:18hit something close to that when we have time to do a transaction. But
- 10:20yeah, you're right on. So imagine that today. Let's say gold goes
- 10:24to ten thousand dollars an ounce to just kind of catch up to where it
- 10:28should be with the money supply, Then what silver silver? The ratio gets
- 10:31down to twenty to one. Again, that's five hundred dollars silver, So
- 10:35that's very possible. That may be a brief event, but I mean anything
- 10:39from two hundred or five, whether it is possible silver gets to five hundred,
- 10:43is that going to be in today's dollars or is it going to be
- 10:48wildly depreciated future dollars? Where what I'm asking effectively, is the real purchasing
- 10:54power of silver and gold going to increase or is it just going to stay
- 10:58this same and we're just to have more dollars, you know. That's that's
- 11:05a good question. There are probably a lot smarter people than me that could
- 11:07pontificate on that. My feeling is from my experience, from what I've seen,
- 11:13is that gold and silver are going to overshoot where they should be.
- 11:16I think there will be a brief time where they go well passed and actually
- 11:22give us a gain, an increase in purchasing power far above inflation, and
- 11:26then come down to a new normal. So it may be the gold goes
- 11:28to ten thousand, comes back down to four or five thousand, and that's
- 11:33the new normal for the next generation. Like still higher than we're at now.
- 11:35We'll just be you know, the next generation's normal, but for a
- 11:39time, I imagine I bet that it will, and especially with silver,
- 11:43if it goes to several hundred dollars an ounce, I think it will overshoot
- 11:48and then come back down to reality and there will be a time where we
- 11:50take advantage of this once in a generation event with the growth in metals.
- 11:54And this really is carry like your listeners need to know this. This is
- 11:58one of those once in a life time opportunities to grow your portfolio with the
- 12:03big ketchup move in metals and have enough of an exposure to benefit from that.
- 12:07I like that, the big ketchup move in metals. And hey,
- 12:11so if you're able to take you know, what's seventy six ounces of silver
- 12:20now for one ounce of gold, and then down the road, instead of
- 12:24getting one ounce, you're getting five ounces almost, That's that's a big difference.
- 12:33So even if the purchasing power isn't going up, the purchasing power in
- 12:39time in terms of how much gold it will buy is going up correct well.
- 12:43Well, and that's just that's one way we're going to capture our gains
- 12:46a lot of way along the way. So for our clients at maclvane,
- 12:50if for anyone working with me, we're going to be doing some of that
- 12:52along the way, maybe not waiting to the very end. We might want
- 12:56to be scaling out of our precious metals at that very end point, at
- 12:58that very low ratio, but along the way we're going to hit points where
- 13:03you know, people that have bought five years ago, well, on this
- 13:05next move up in silver, they can get to a point where they can
- 13:07double their ounces from where they started, and maybe we take some of our
- 13:11silver and turn it into gold, and we're essentially capturing that gain in three
- 13:16ounces of gold. We're locking it in. We have extra three ounces of
- 13:18gold that we didn't have before, and we're locking in that gain. If
- 13:20there's a correction, great, we can reset for a little bit. If
- 13:24it keeps going, that's fine. We haven't tried to time the market perfectly.
- 13:28We're just we're making our pile bigger along the way. Okay, So
- 13:33the doubt to gold ratio, that's kind of when you know it's time to
- 13:37get out of metals. If it gets down to two to one, three
- 13:39to one, or one to one even then it's kind of flashing of major
- 13:45buy for the stock market. Huh. Yeah, that would be the case
- 13:48too. I think we'll get to a point of selling gold and buying stocks
- 13:54potentially if interest rates are high enough, going back into the bonds again too,
- 13:58if they're paying enough. But yeah, the Dow gold ratio will be
- 14:01a big indicator. And I've got actually a list for my clients, and
- 14:03I'm going to let them know. I've got a list of like ten indicators
- 14:07of this is what we normally see at the end of a bowl market in
- 14:09metals, how people are acting, what the news is saying, what's going
- 14:13on in the world. There's a lot of things we'll know, but the
- 14:15Dow gold ratio will be a good one. So what is it now?
- 14:18Seventeen to one? Roughly? What can we say it is sixteen? Between
- 14:22sixteen and seventeen to one. So yeah, the end of a bowl market,
- 14:26the time when you want to reallocate some of your goal, the time
- 14:28when you want to buy stocks. Maybe five to one or less. I
- 14:31mean, I think it could go to two or three to one. So
- 14:33huge multiplier, huge multiplier. And it's not like we'd even get rid of
- 14:39all our gold either. I think everyone should always have amount of gold,
- 14:43yeah, whether it's ten or twenty percent, whatever it is. But we
- 14:46may be high in that percentage when gold is ten thousand dollars down. So
- 14:50then let's say, all right, well let's go back to a foundational amount.
- 14:54Oh, stocks are dirt cheap, Okay, let's buy a bunch of
- 14:56those for pennies on the dollar compared to today. So there'll be a reallocation.
- 15:01We'll take advantage of these moves, but we also need to be on
- 15:03the trend right now, because this is this is where they're going. All
