(Replay) Inflation went from “transient” to, “it's good for you” to, “we've got to do something before we have a revolution on our hands”. But (the Fed) they're kind of trapped now because they can't keep raising (interest rates) because we're seeing what's happening to the debt and the bond markets. They can't raise and they can't lower and they can't stay where they are. They've really painted themselves into a corner, pretty well all the central banks have. Join the conversation on today’s episode of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio with your host, Dennis Tubbergen, and guest, Mark Jeftovik, and hear his forecast for inflation, cryptocurrency, and the dollar.

This week’s edition of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio features an interview with Alasdair McLeod, the head of research at GoldMoney. Your host, Dennis Tubbergen, talks with McLeod about the potential impact of the BRICS Coalition on the US dollar as an international reserve currency. McLeod suggests that the US is already fighting back against the expansion of BRICS, citing Argentina's recent decision to back off from China and adopt the US dollar as its currency. However, the influence of Russia and China within BRICS will continue to spread, leading to a decrease in the use of the US dollar and potentially weakening the currency in the long term. McLeod also discusses the possibility of a gold-backed currency in the future and the risks associated with the large amount of US dollar holdings held internationally. He suggests that a rush to liquidate these assets could be difficult for the US to handle and could lead to a significant devaluation of the dollar. McLeod emphasizes the importance of understanding the global credit situation and the potential for a collapse of fiat currencies, which could lead to a significant rise in the value of gold.

Alasdair Macleod is the head of research at Gold Money Holding, a well-respected author, and a noted expert in world economics.

Michael Oliver, the founder of Momentum Structural Analysis, joins your host, Dennis Tubbergen, for this episode of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates to discuss his unique approach to analyzing markets and his predictions for the future. Oliver believes that 2024 and 2025 will be years of massive price and market movements that will benefit and hurt people depending on their positions. He also discusses the health of the US economy, stating that while the US is not currently in a recession, it will be in the future due to the paper stock market bubble and the errors made in financial decision-making based on the false premise of the cost of money. Oliver predicts a major bear market in stocks and a downward trend in US treasuries and suggests that investors should consider moving into gold and gold-related assets as a safe haven.

Murray Gunn, the head of global research at Elliott Wave International, joins your host, Dennis Tubbergen, today on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio. Mr. Gunn explains the concept of Elliott wave analysis, which is a model of the economy that identifies repeatable patterns in market behavior. He discusses how these patterns can be used to forecast price developments in various markets, including currencies, commodities, and stocks. Gunn warns that the stock market may experience a decline in 2024, based on Elliott wave analysis and the presence of a Dow Theory non-confirmation, and suggests that cash and certain corporate bonds may be good investment options during this period. Gunn also introduces the concept of socionomics, which posits that social mood drives social actions and can be observed in the stock market and other cultural trends. He speculates that China may experience negative social actions in the near future based on a long-term price pattern and the country's negative social mood.

Murray Gunn is Head of Global Research at Elliott Wave International. He worked as a fund manager in global bonds, currencies, and stocks, including long posts at Standard Life Investments and the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.

In an interview with Kerry Lutz, financial expert Dennis Tubbergen discussed the current state of the economy. Tubbergen believes that the economy is artificially inflated due to government spending and that without this spending, the US would be in a severe recession. He also suggested that the current economic situation is akin to a Ponzi scheme, with the government borrowing money to increase cash flow at the expense of future GDP. Tubbergen predicts a stagflationary environment, with a decline in the value of assets and increased inflation in consumer items. He recommends investing in precious metals and assets without counterparty risk that cannot be printed.

Kerry Lutz has been a student of Austrian Economics since 1977. While attending Pace University, he stumbled upon an extensive cache of Austrian Economic Literature in a dark, musty, abandoned section of the school’s library. After graduating from The New York Law School, he became an attorney and lifelong serial entrepreneur.

They also discussed the current state of the economy and the stock market. Denninger compared the market's refusal to decline despite bearish economic indicators to Pavlov's dog experiment, suggesting that the market has been conditioned to expect government intervention in the form of credit emission whenever there's an economic stumble. Denninger warned that this approach is unsustainable and will eventually lead to a collapse of civil society or the political system. He also criticized the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, arguing that the stimulus checks did not compensate for the inflation that resulted from the government's spending. Denninger predicted that the economy is likely to enter a deflationary depression and warned of the potential for a civil war if the government continues its current policies.

Dennis Tubbergen hosts Bob Hoye on RLA Radio, discussing Hoye's extensive background in geology and his insights into the financial markets. Hoye emphasizes the potential of junior gold mining stocks, citing historical successes and the current favorable conditions for gold relative to other commodities. He critiques the Federal Reserve's interest rate policies, arguing that historical patterns suggest a looming recession. Hoye advises investors to consider junior gold stocks for higher returns, given their potential for significant discoveries and profitability in a post-bubble economic environment. The conversation also touches on the methodology for selecting promising junior mining companies and the broader economic indicators signaling a transition from boom to bust.

Bob Hoye and Ross Clark have been in the investment business for some 50 years, making them one of the more experienced researchers. Their historical work has been thorough, providing the first recognition of the fascinating transition from speculation in commodities to speculation in financial assets. It was controversial when Bob observed that “No matter how much the Fed prints, stocks will outperform commodities”. In January 2000, the research team concluded that the Dot-Com Bubble would peak in March 2000. In early 2007, the team outlined that the credit markets would reverse in May-June 2007. They did and the stock market followed.

Dennis Tubbergen hosts Michael Oliver, founder and CEO of Momentum Structural Analysis, on this week’s RLA Radio. Oliver explains their unique methodology of measuring price in relation to long-term moving averages to predict market trends. He warns of a significant impending downturn in the US stock market, potentially more severe than historical bubbles like 1929 or 2007. Oliver suggests that while traditional safe havens like US Treasuries may see temporary rallies, the real refuge will be in gold and silver, with gold miners poised for substantial gains. He also highlights vulnerabilities in sectors like healthcare and opportunities in commodities and energy stocks.

Michael Oliver has been studying markets for over four decades, but it was the 1987 stock market crash that became his “aha!” moment and converted him to what he calls “momentum structural analysis.” Mr. Oliver is the CEO of Momentum Structural Analysis LLC based in Greensboro, North Carolina. He is also the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism. Since 1992 Momentum Structural Analysis has provided unique technical research to the financial industry - banks, RIAs, hedge funds, and mutual funds - as well as to individual investors.
