Peter Schiff analyzes mounting evidence that the U.S. dollar is heading for a major decline, driven by exploding deficits and failed trade policies. With the national debt surging $2.6 trillion in just over a year under Trump, and trade deficits widening despite tariffs, Schiff argues that the same deficit spending Republicans blamed for Biden's inflation is now accelerating under the current administration. Oil prices have surged 21% in two months, hitting six-month highs above $66, while gold holds support above $5,000 as central banks continue dumping dollars. The December trade deficit data reveals Trump's tariffs are backfiring spectacularly - imports rising while exports fall, proving Americans pay 90% of tariff costs according to New York Fed studies. Housing markets show severe stress with pending home sales hitting record lows, signaling price corrections ahead. Schiff credits Trump for reducing FDA drug approval requirements from two studies to one, but argues this modest deregulation doesn't address the fundamental problem of government interference in healthcare markets that didn't exist before 1962.

#Gold #Tariffs #Inflation

It’s not “Presidents’ Day.” Legally, it’s George Washington’s Birthday—and we’ve quietly erased the one American who actually deserves a national holiday.

In this episode, I explain how a 1968 law moved holidays to Mondays, how retail “Presidents’ Day” sales hijacked the meaning, and why Washington’s character matters: the war hero who survived what should’ve killed him, turned down a crown, stepped away after two terms, and personally led troops to put down the Whiskey Rebellion.

We also cover a modern contrast: government subsidies and incentives that raise prices, distort markets, and create the very “affordability” problems politicians pretend to solve.

Peter Schiff explains why today’s “better than expected” jobs report is meaningless—and why the real story is the massive downward revisions. The government erased roughly 2.5 million jobs going back to 2019, including about 1.1 million from 2025 and over 800,000 from 2024. That means many of the celebrated “beats” from the past two years were actually misses, and markets were trading on bad data.

Schiff breaks down how automated trading reacts to jobs prints (strong jobs = buy dollars/sell gold), why the birth/death model distorted reality, and why gold and the dollar are no longer reacting the way they used to. He also covers rising oil and oil stocks, why gold and silver miners may hit new highs before the metals, why foreign markets are crushing U.S. stocks year-to-date, and why the dollar index looks set up for a sharper decline.

Finally, Schiff argues the crypto crash is the first bubble to pop—an early warning for broader asset bubbles—and explains why tokenized gold is becoming the real “digital money” narrative as Bitcoin’s “digital gold” claim fails in real time.

Gold and silver are stabilizing after last week’s historic paper-market smash, and the real story is what’s coming next: a weaker jobs trend, rising energy, and a tariff regime that’s functionally a tax on everyday Americans.

Peter breaks down the ugly ADP print (and the downward revision), why the “strongest economy ever” narrative doesn’t pass the smell test, and why oil’s turn higher undermines the administration’s last clean talking point on inflation.

Then Peter walks through Scott Bessent’s testimony and why tariffs are politically toxic: officials can’t claim tariffs don’t raise prices while simultaneously admitting removing tariffs lowers prices. That contradiction is the whole game.

Finally, Peter covers the optics and incentives of open graft and self-dealing, why it’s setting a precedent both parties will exploit, and why this mix of affordability pain, weak labor signals, and policy doublespeak is tailor-made to punish the incumbents in the midterms.

#tariffs #economicindicators #cryptocurrency

Gold and silver just experienced one of the most violent paper selloffs in history—but does it actually change the bull market? In this special Sunday night edition of the Schiff Gold Market Wrap, Peter Schiff explains why this crash was driven by coordinated futures selling, not fundamentals, and why it represents an opportunity rather than a turning point.

Peter breaks down what caused the sudden collapse, why physical demand for gold and silver is increasing even as paper prices fall, and why premiums are already rising. He explains how short sellers engineered the move, why they ultimately can’t deliver the metal they sold, and why this sets the stage for higher prices ahead.

The episode also covers why mining stocks were hit even harder than metals, why those declines create exceptional value, and how earnings will soon expose the disconnect between prices and fundamentals. Peter explains why Bitcoin continues to fail as “digital gold,” why crypto fell without benefiting from the gold rally, and why this moment offers a rare chance to rotate out of crypto and into real money.

Despite extreme volatility, gold near $4,700 and silver near $80 remain historically strong prices. Peter explains why this selloff doesn’t damage the long-term trend, why Asian buying remains strong, and why the biggest risk now belongs to short sellers—not long-term holders.

This episode is essential viewing for anyone holding gold, silver, mining stocks, or crypto.

#economiccrisis #cryptocurrency #goldandsilver

Gold and silver just posted historic record highs, and Wall Street is still asleep.

In this week’s Schiff Gold Friday Market Wrap, Peter Schiff breaks down the biggest one-day dollar rally in gold history, silver’s surge above $90 an ounce, and why recent volatility is consolidation at extreme highs — not a top.

Peter explains why:

• Gold and silver are flashing early warnings of a coming U.S. dollar and Treasury bond crisis
• Mining stocks remain dramatically undervalued despite exploding metal prices
• Inflation is accelerating again while the Fed talks about rate cuts
• Rising Japanese bond yields threaten global bond markets
• Trump-era policies are unintentionally pushing the world away from the dollar and into gold
• CPI headlines are misleading while producer inflation is surging
• This moment mirrors subprime in 2007 — an early signal before a much larger crisis

Gold is reacting first. Silver followed. Bonds and the dollar are next.

Peter also explains why waiting for pullbacks is a mistake, why physical silver supplies may tighten sharply, and why this bull market is just getting started.
