Feb. 12, 2016Featured Guests:James Turk, John Williams, Yannis Tsitos & Bob Hoye (encore).(guest order - alphabetical)Please Listen Here: Summary: President and Director of Goldsource Mines (GXS.V), Yannis Tsitos makes his show debut. Peter Spina has chosen his firm as the top PMs stock opportunity of 2016. With close to 30 years to perfect his work, President Tsitos knows how to turn a small mining company into a world-class operation.The company vision includes expanding to a medium sized gold producer. The South American project shows great potential. Many of the Guyana based gold deposits are located near the surface, making extraction profitable. The only English speaking nation in S.A., Guyana is a pro-mining, former British colony, offering additional appeal to operations. His management team boasts 250 years of experience, adding significant shareholder value. First gold production by Christmas on their flagship property for merely $480 cash cost-$630 all in cost per ounce, merely half the spot price. Goldsource has an affiliation with major producer and key shareholder (5%), IAMGOLD, adding strategic synergies. Shareholders benefit from the coal property in Canada, with significant resources and exploration potential.James Turk of GoldMoney.com returns to the program with less than sanguine comments on the domestic economy. Half of 25 year olds in the US are living in their parent's homes, struggling to make ends meet.The statistic is emblematic of the erosion of the economic affluence of the middle class. The issue stems from lost purchasing power of the currency, resulting from profligate monetary expansion. When income is adjusted for inflation and related expenses, most employees earn far less than medieval serfs.The desperation of the situation is exacerbate by the off-shoring of tens of millions of high paying jobs, due to NAFTA and related policies. The persistence of gold backwardation (current spot lower than future price) should not occur, as it presents an arbitrage situation.Since 2000, gold has appreciated over 11% on average each year and held it's purchasing power much better than most competing asset classes. The US dollar is lower, while stocks and bonds have hardly budged since that point, while gold has ascended at least four fold, $250 to over $1,000. Economist John Williams of Shadowstats.com returns to the show.The true underlying economic situation, hidden within the "official" economic data, is less than encouraging. The typically cool-headed and collected economic-sleuth is unnerved by Fed policies. His work indicates that the economy never recovered from that ominous period, resulting in the current stagnation. Our guest echoes American economist Dr. Frank Knight who noted: economics is simple.John Williams uncovers fingerprints of gold market manipulation / rigging, likely stemming from official sources. His analysis indicates a US dollar endgame scenario of less than sanguine consequences. The host suggests an alternative hypothesis: the PBoC is aggressively promoting China's Yuan currency to the IMF, as a global reserve currency alternative, as seen by the recent currency pegging to the Swiss Franc. Therefore, dollar strength resulting from imminent US rate hikes in 2016 and dovish moves by the ECB, PBoC and the BOJ, are responsible for most of the 12 month dollar rally and resulting commodities weakness. John Williams and the host agree that the perfect panacea for the typical investment portfolio remains PMs, the ideal insurance policy. Chris welcomes back Bob Hoye, senior investment strategist of Institutional Advisors.The discussion begins with the news from South America, that the Venezuelan government has plans to sell the national gold stockpile. If implemented, the operation would undo the significant efforts of the late Hugo Chavez.Global central banks are inadvertently supporting the PMs community - policymakers at the PBoC and EU announced new monetary stimulus plans. The EU

Feb. 4, 2016Featured Guests:Bob Hoye & Jeffrey Nichols Please Listen Here: Summary: Jeffrey Nichols of Rosland Capital, returns to the show with his latest insights on the precious metals sector. A new uptrend suggests the multi-year selloff may be reversing course. With signs of sluggish economic output, our guest suggests that Fed policymakers could back-peddle on the new interest rate policy. The inflation adjusted or real interest rate may already be negative, depending on the source examined. IInvestors should brace for either a new wave of QE or a novel approach to boost economic growth. But even if the Fed maintains a hawkish stance, gold will likely rise anyway, due to supply shortages. Gold could soon eclipse the 2010 zenith, ascending above $2,000 per ounce as soon as the end of next year, yielding 100% profits. If our guest's forecast is correct, the yellow metal could climb as high as $3,000-$5,000, within seven years.Chris welcomes back Bob Hoye, senior investment strategist at Institutional Advisors. US equities could be entering a bear market, given media reports of a domestic retail "Apocalypse", with thousand retail store closings. Now that gold has recovered by nearly $100 from the recent lows, gold and silver investments represent the best portfolio insurance currently available. Gold / silver equities could present an excellent contrarian opportunity, relative to overpriced sectors. Mines are lean and mean, due to lower crude oil prices and related expenses, prepared to tackle exciting new opportunities.Cash rich firms can procure properties with the most potential at a fraction of the cost. The host and guest concur that long-term portfolio investing is the safest and most profitable way to build a solid financial future.

Jan. 15, 2016Featured Guests:Dr. Marc Faber & Professor Burton Malkiel Guest order - alphabetical. Please Listen Here: Summary:Dr. Burton Malkiel, Professor from Princeton University returns to the show to discus the 11th edition of his magnum opus, A Random Walk Down Wall Street. His outlook for 2016 is somber - equities and most asset classes seem overvalued. The CAPE P/E ratio, currently near 23 in the US, which indicates US shares are overpriced relative to global shares, on a historical basis. When valuations are extended, diversification is most necessary, buffering the impact of increased volatility. Although the professor agrees with the host that 2016 will be a year of Fed rate hikes, tame economic conditions will likely hold policymakers in check. The idea of market unpredictability is comparable to quantum mechanics, where Einstein could not accept quantum theory. Instead of predicting price outcomes, probability theory facilitates enhanced portfolio return. Even the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett has publicly denounced active investing, instructing his heirs to engage in passive index investing. The professor offers his favorite index fund with a low expense ratio, the ETF: (VTI), with a remarkable expense ratio of 1/20th of one percent, 0.0005%. Using such low expense ETFs, the typical individual investor can easily outperform virtually all top money managers and hedge funds. Adding bonds to stock index funds is advisable. Chris welcomes back Dr. Marc Faber, a widely respected economist and editor of the GloomBoomDoom report. Our guest expects the Fed to backpedal with the new rate hike policy, with the announcement of a new wave of monetary expansion this year, QE 4. Policymakers are pushing on a string - monetary expansion is far less affective with each installment. Although the equities indexes are being buoyed by a few key shares, the majority of stocks are in bear market territory. Dr. Faber questions the veracity of official US economic figures, noting a high likelihood of a recession in early 2016 despite official indications to the contrary. After years of stagnation, gold shares are outperforming most sectors, as their relative value encourages wise investors to allocate funds into the XAU. Dr. Faber recently added to his gold position, using weakness as an opportunity to procure sound money at a discount. The storage cost for physical gold bullion is low making the yellow metal an ideal asset to outperform other commodities amid a 2016 rebound rally.Show HostChris WaltzekAbout ChrisContact Host:[email protected] listen here: Dial-Up Real AudioMP3FAST Download:Highest Quality Download:Right Click Above and "Save Target As..." to download.

Jan. 8, 2016Featured Guests:Jim Rogers &Peter Schiff Please Listen Here: Summary:Chris welcomes back Jim Rogers from his Singapore office, who says a financial crisis is imminent. His largest currency position remains the US dollar, which will likely rally into a bubble which eventually implodes in spectacular fashion. Although not a safe haven, the US dollar seems impervious relative to most global currencies, for the moment. He continues to monitor the gold market for signs of capitulation, to add to his stockpile. Russian and Chinese firms present appealing investment opportunities. Jim Rogers holds short positions in US shares, in anticipation of further volatility on the heels of the Fed rate hikes. The zinc market is off over 90%, making ETF shares (ZINC) a potential turn around candidate in the coming weeks / months / years. Chairman of SchiffGold.com, Peter Schiff returns to the show with dire warnings of a looming currency crisis. His work indicates that eventually, momentum will return to the gold market, making $100+ days commonplace culminating $5,000 gold. The multi-year bull market in stocks may be viewed in retrospect as a Fed fomented bubble, which crushes million of retirement portfolios. Artificially low rates inspired large corporations to repurchase their shares via cheap debt, which can only end badly for investors. Although US retail sales are solid, better leading economic indicators like the Dallas Manufacturing Index and the US Weekly Leading Index are rolling over (Figures 1.1. & 1.2.). The dollar was on the verge of collapse during the credit crisis, but was saved by the bailout. The next decline will require the formation of an entirely new currency.

Jan. 29, 2016Featured Guests:Robert Kiyosaki & Marin Aleksov Please Listen Here: Summary:Chris welcomes back to the show, Marin Aleksov, CEO of Rosland Capital.Our guest says the recent market volatility, domestically as well as in Asia, which could lead to a 2008 style market crisis, halting the FOMC rate hikes.In addition, the collapse would increase appeal of safe haven assets such as precious metals. Marin Aleksov is primarily concerned with the return of his wealth and less so with the return, on his portfolio.Our guest advocates a gold allocation of 20%-30% per investment portfolio. Investors may be placing too big an emphasis on near-term performance. Gold is still higher by over 25% since 2008. With gold priced at bargain levels, the risk / reward is enticing.Millions of investors worldwide are seizing the opportunity to increase exposure with limited downside. Chris welcomes Robert Kiyoaski, America's 'Rich Dad' back to the show, author of Second Chance: for Your Money, Your Life and Our World (2015).The Rich Dad book series author expects the US share slide to continue in earnest. He's convinced that the yellow metal has completed the bear market, which is why he's directing funds to the gold safe haven. Investors are advised to ignore the dollar price of gold and silver and focus instead on the number of ounces in their stockpile."The biggest risk is not owning it (gold)." He's watching the price of oil closely. He leaves the listening audience with a warning - an epic financial crisis is imminent, much worse than 1929, 2001 or 2008.Show HostChris WaltzekAbout ChrisContact Host:[email protected] listen here: Dial-Up Real AudioMP3FAST Download:Highest Quality Download:Right Click Above and "Save Target As..." to download.

Jan. 22, 2016Featured Guests:CEO Amir Adnani & Nick Barisheff Alphabetical Guest Order Please Listen Here: Summary:CEO of Brazil Resources (BRI.V), Amir Adnani makes his show debut - Mr. Adnani has a reputation for moving projects rapidly into production. Fortune magazine lists Mr. Adnani in the prestigious ranks of “40 Under 40, Ones to Watch” North American executives. A top investment fund owns 17% of BRI shares - legendary precious metals investor, Rick Rule of Sprott Asset Management. Mr. Adnani has partnered with Mario Garnero of Brazilinvest, the top merchant bank and financial partner in Brazil. His success strategy involves a two prong approach: identifying exceptional partners and employees as well as acquiring discounted properties. As a BRICS nation, Brazil is the eighth largest economy in the world where officials have nurtured and fostered a mining friendly reputation, including a reasonable gold royalty rate of 1% (The World Bank, 2015). The Sao Jorge project is 100% owned, includes paved highway access, a nearby workforce, and a hydroelectric power source. The Cachoeira project benefits from a solid infrastructure and convenient highway access. Brazil Resources has a uranium ore property in Alaska - the Whistler project has the unique benefit of $10 million in previous exploration by major firms in the industry, providing a treasure map left by earlier exploration. Nick Barisheff of Bullion Management Group (BMG), notes the Tobin Q ratio and the Shiller index indicate a high probability of a 50% stock market correction.The scenario presents an interesting contrarian opportunity for inventors to exchange overvalued stocks for undervalued gold. He compares the current PMs correction to the late 1970's, when gold ascended by 750%. If the prediction unfolds in similar fashion a gold price of approximately $8,000 - 10,000 could unfold. Our guest makes the startling revelation that gold performs best during periods of economic deflation. A key study spanning 300 years of financial data revealed that gold soars in purchasing power relative to most alternatives amid monetary contractions. Our guest chiefly recommends bullion PMs, which provide the best safe haven characteristics in a world awash in paper assets.

Jan. 1, 2016Featured Guests:Martin Armstrong & Bob HoyePlease Listen Here: Summary: Chris welcomes back Bob Hoye, senior investment strategist of Institutional Advisors, who wishes every listener a Happy New Year. The economic endgame could be near - central bank policymakers are using every method possible, including negative interest rates and QE. His models suggest a paper asset crash is inevitable, it is merely a matter of time. Timing the event is challenging and will represent a sea-change in economics worldwide. The tipping point could stem from the Junk Bond market, where soaring yields have crushed prices, potentially threatening the higher rated debt market. Our guest's key takeaway point: a financial maelstrom of epic proportions will crush debt instruments and even shares - hard assets will be essential to economic survival. Chris welcomes back Martin Armstrong of Armstrong Economics, the subject of a new riveting documentary The Forecaster (2015).Watch the theatrical trailer video (Figure 1.1.). At the heart of his investing methodology are international money flows. The recent FOMC rate hike could actually be a boon for US equities indexes, as investors direct funds from sluggish international zones.

Dec. 25, 2015Featured Guests:Peter Schiff, Gary Dorsch, David Nickoski & Jeffrey Christian Please Listen Here: Summary: David Nicoski of Vermilion Technical Research makes his debut on the show - he deciphers the market dynamics from a technical perspective, in particular relative strength analysis. Starting last Wednesday, the market plunged sharply, fulfilling a bearish diamond pattern prophecy. The thousand point decline in the Dow Jones Industrials Average last week was followed by a 1,000 point intraday collapse on Monday. Our guest expects further negative price action amid a flurry of unexpectedly bearish news events. An ominous diamond pattern recently emerged in US equities - strikingly similar to the 1929 market zenith. One overlooked gem in the rough is the Nikkei index (DXJ).David Nicoski thinks that Japan's equities bourse is on the cusp of a 10 year bull cycle. His analysis on individual sectors can markedly improve portfolio results, as the typical difference between solid / weak sectors exceeds 45%. The guest notes the US stock indexes should not be compared beyond a few years, as stocks are added / dropped too frequently to make useful comparisons. He is waiting for a bottom pattern to unfold in the PMs sector, such as an inverse head and shoulders, double / triple bottom. Prominent economic analyst, Jeffrey Christian of CPM Group rejoins the show on the heels of a pilgrimage to South Africa. His team correctly forecasted the commodities sector weakness.The cyclical decline in the bull market in commodities should conclude by 2018. Our guest thinks the US Fed is behind the financial trends.A Fed rate hike of the benchmark lending rate is a non-sequitur.Given the recent currency / equities market turmoil, worldwide. Our guest is watching for signs that investors in China start booking substantial equities profits, redirecting capital into the precious metals market. The battered crude oil sector could be presenting entry opportunities; any price below $40 represents a fair price, according to their models. Gary Dorsch, publisher of Global Money Trends Newsletter, notes how officials around the globe continue to debase their money to bolster ailing economies. The race to the bottom may have dire consequences, worldwide. Not only are some company shares collapsing, but their bonds, too. Our guest notes that the economy is producing on average 200,000 jobs per month, home prices have recovered while corporate conditions have improved markedly, so it's inappropriate to hold rates near zero. Expect the Fed to follow the advice of the BIS and end the 6.5 year holding pattern with a rate hike next month. The ECB and BOJ will continue quantitative easing by a combined $1.5 trillion. Yields on low quality bonds continue to soar, pushing prices to record lows. Our guest expects gold to find a bottom around $1,000 per ounce. Proviso: if the Fed holds rates steady, the bottom may already be in place. Peter Schiff, Chairman of SchiffGold.com and the host discuss the expected Fed rate hikes, scheduled for as soon as next month. Our guest thinks the benchmark rate will remain set near zero, providing the rocket fuel to propel the precious metals into orbit. The domestic economic is in far worse shape than indicated by the official data so a rate hike could crush the economy. Fed officials will avoid rate hikes igniting a new wave of quantitative easing, QE4. Signs of underlying economic weakness abound, such as the lowest home ownership rate in 50 years. The guest / host concur that the Monetarist panacea involves holding rates steady and not raising them to ward off the looming financial crisis. Peter Schiff calms investors concerns regarding the bear market, noting that another 20 year downtrend is unlikely.

Approximately 4,000 paper / fiat currencies (99.9%) have failed in human history - the Greenback / Euro / Yen will follow suit.

Following the guidelines outlined by Hugo Salinas Price, central banks could sell 10% of gold reserves, buy silver with the funds and distribute as coins to the populace. Even Milton Friedman admitted that silver is the major monetary metal in history.
