Tariffs and rumors of tariffs are driving the markets right now. But is there something bigger going on? Are tariffs just one plotline within a bigger story? 

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey puts the current market chaos into context, zooming in to focus on what he believes is a much bigger narrative. 

He argues that the stock market is a big fat bubble just waiting for a pin. Tariffs might be that pin. But even if they're not, there's a pin out there. Mike explains how we got to this place, focusing on Federal Reserve monetary policy and the broader boom-bust business cycle using the Dow-to-Gold ratio as a map to the broader narrative.

Coming up don’t miss an exclusive interview with Peter Krauth, author of the book The Great Silver Bull. Money Metals’ Mike Maharrey talks to Peter about a range of topics, including the disconnect we’re seeing between the gold price and the silver price.

According to the headlines, the Federal Reserve didn't really do anything at its March meeting.

But it did.

True, the central bank held interest rates steady, however, it still made a very significant move.

It dramatically slowed balance sheet reduction. 

What does this mean and why did the Fed do it now? 

In this week's Money Metals' Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey explains the move and its potential impact, and puts it in the context of Fed monetary policy history. He also talks about what we should make of Jerome Powell's insistence that the economy is "fine."

This week, we have the incredible honor of talking to the man who wrote a book on the origins of the Fed called The Creature from Jekyll Island. G. Edward Griffin joins us this week and you will not want to miss the incredible and sketchy story of how the Federal Reserve came to be over a century ago.

Gold hit a major milestone last week eclipsing $3,000 an ounce for the first time.

Perhaps even more impressive was how fast gold pushed to that much-anticipated level. 

So, can this gold bull run continue?

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey talks about it, highlighting several factors driving gold higher and explaining why he thinks this gold can keep pushing higher. 

Coming up we'll hear a fascinating interview with Stuart Englert, award-winning and veteran journalist and the author of nine books including Rigged: Exposing the Largest Financial Fraud in History, which you can find on MoneyMetals.com.

Is the dollar in trouble? Is it doomed?

People are starting to talk about a growing trend of "de-dollarization." But what does that mean? And why does it matter? 

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek memo, host Mike Maharrey talks about de-dollarization, why it's happening, and the potential ramifications. He explains how the weaponization of the dollar has hastened de-dollarization and why even a small decline in the dollar's global reserve status could be disastrous. He also discusses how the de-dollarization trend could drive gold much higher than most people realize.

This week, we have an exclusive interview with Jordan Roy-Byrne, a chartered market technician and master of financial technical analysis, editor and publisher of The Daily Gold and Gold and Silver: The Greatest Bull Market Has Begun. Jordan lays out the case for gold having broken out of a 13-year long trading range, signaling the start of a new long-term uptrend. And why Silver might outperform Gold.
