• Michael Howell: Monetary Inflation Is Here

  Michael Howell warns that the global financial system is approaching a breaking point, not from a recession, but from a massive mismatch between debt and liquidity. As the U.S. and other governments try to roll over trillions in short-term debt at rising interest rates, the quiet result is monetary inflation. In this explosive interview with James Connor, Howell explains why 5% bond yields are the new normal, why the 60/40 portfolio model is obsolete, and why China, not just the Fed, may be driving the gold bull market. He warns that global bond markets are flashing danger, and the coming 2026–2028 refinancing cliff could trigger the next big crisis. Key Topics: • Why bond yields are rising globally, and what that means for markets • The most overlooked metric: debt-to-liquidity, not debt-to-GDP • How governments are quietly monetizing deficits, risking long-term damage • Why China’s liquidity surge may be fueling the gold and Bitcoin rally • The real reason traditional portfolios won’t survive this macro regime Volatility got you concerned?

• David Rosenberg: Gold to $6,000 & Why the U.S. Dollar Is Losing Its Power | Part II

  David Rosenberg returns with his most powerful calls yet. In Part II, Rosenberg explains why he believes gold will hit $6,000 this cycle, the U.S. dollar is entering a bear market, and Treasury bonds offer asymmetric upside in today’s fragile financial system. Rosenberg lists his top conviction trades: gold, Treasuries, defensive stocks, and global diversification, especially in Europe and Asia. He also warns that America’s reserve currency status may not last, as central banks worldwide increasingly turn to gold. In a special addendum, Rocklinc’s CEO, Jonathan Wellum, breaks down Rosenberg’s thesis and reinforces why investors must prepare for a world where the U.S. can no longer spend without consequences. Key Topics: • Gold to $6,000? Why Rosenberg is all-in • Treasuries vs. stocks: Which is mispriced? • The death of TINA (There Is No Alternative) • U.S. debt, deficits, and dollar devaluation • Why central banks are loading up on gold • Global investment opportunities in Europe & Asia If you missed part I of this interview, watch it here: https://youtu.be/_9kou-94zow Volatility got you concerned?
