Jordan Roy Byrne - Gold Still Not Going Up #4311

April 17, 2019 20:52 - 20 minutes - 28.7 MB

As Jordan explained to us last month, we're still not seeing higher highs and higher lows in the gold price. His opinion was again confirmed. Every time gold approaches $1350 per ounce, there's a dramatic pullback. Until gold breaks this key resistance point, with conviction, not much is going to happen. Unfortunately, until further notice, precious metals investors are in a waiting game. 

Chris Vecchio - Disaster Coming in Europe #4310

April 17, 2019 20:51 - 28 minutes - 38.4 MB

Brexit chaos spurs record flows to sterling-hedged funds. Investors pour money into pound-proofed ETFs at a rate seven times that of a year ago. According to figures from Lipper, the data provider, net inflows into Europe-based ETFs that are hedged to sterling reached record levels during the first three months of 2019. These funds pulled in close to €1.7bn during the period, as investors looked to protect themselves against currency risks linked to a no-deal Brexit. The inflows represent a s...

Judge John H. Wilson - Mueller and His Pack of Lies #4309

April 17, 2019 20:38 - 21 minutes - 29.5 MB

Judge Wilson, first time guest, tells us that After almost two years of investigation, the report of Special Counsel Robert Mueller concerning whether the President and his campaign staff colluded with Russian agents during the 2016 election was finally provided to the US Attorney General's Office late in March. The Attorney General, William Barr, immediately released a short summary of the Report. In that letter, the Attorney General made two significant points: 1) " The Special Counsel's in...

Jayant Bhandari - All in for Benevolent Dictatorship #4308

April 17, 2019 17:24 - 25 minutes - 34.3 MB

First time guest Jayant Bhandari believes that democracy is a flawed system that has failed to bring people out of poverty in the last century. Rather, authoritarian benevolent regimes, such as China, Singapore, Hong Kong, etc., have been the wealth building leaders. Not that we're unmindful of democracy's flaws, but we tend to subscribe to the Churchillian view that "Democracy is the worst system in the world, except for all the rest!" And perhaps at present our participatory democracy is a ...

Danielle Park - Luxury Housing a Bust #4307

April 17, 2019 17:18 - 19 minutes - 26.7 MB

In places like Greenwich, CT, New York City, Vancouver and around the world, it looks like there's a high-end housing bust taking place. It's partly a demographic issue, where older people are downsizing want to cash in on their expensive housing. The hoped for resale market is younger generations and they're just not stepping up to the plate. This underscores the danger or easy credit. It's great when you're acquiring luxury properties, but not so much when you go to sell. Expect such declin...

Matt Schlapp - Socialism Rising? #4306

April 16, 2019 20:50 - 24 minutes - 33.1 MB

ACU's Matt Schlapp On Reagan, Trump, and Socialism It's no surprise the far-left led by Sen. Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Elizabeth Warren are trying to bring socialism to America.  But, these liberals ignore the history of socialism's evil and are ignorning the current human catastrophe in Venezuela caused by socialist policies.  President Trump, much like President Ronald Reagan, has long said "socialism will never come to America." In fact, as noted in the American Cons...

Aaron Clarey - Millennial Housing Quirks #4305

April 16, 2019 18:50 - 30 minutes - 41.6 MB

Our good friend Captain Capitalism a/k/a Aaron Clarey sold his house and is living in a Millennial enclave. Gone are spacious units. Instead he's enjoying a plethora of amenities that he never wanted. There's two gyms, social programs, a large pool, a movie theatre and a bunch of other things he could do without. Aaron says this type of development is thriving because most Millennials will never own their own home and this is as close as they'll get to the American Dream. How sad.  

Heather Wagenhals - Hackers on the Bleeding Edge of Technology #4304

April 16, 2019 18:45 - 22 minutes - 31.4 MB

Heather Wagenhals says that hackers are on the bleeding edge of technology. Unfortunately, the blood is often yours. The whole situation is so invasive. We're totally immersed in technology that we never really think about it. And that makes you a sitting duck. You always need to be on your guard. Watch out for that phishing email with those tempting links. One click and everything you own could be gone. We need a better way. 

Jerome Corsi - He Fought the Law and Won #4303

April 16, 2019 18:42 - 21 minutes - 29.4 MB

Jerome Corsi became a target of the Mueller Investigation. He says he did nothing illegal, never had any contacts with Russians or Wikileaks, but Mueller wanted him to perjure himself in order for them to get at the President. Coris refused and instead filed a $350 million lawsuit against the Special Counsel's Office, alleging numerous misdeeds and crimes. Let's see where it goes. However, him gambit seems to have bought him relief from prosecution and is the subject of a new book, Silent No ...

Round Table - John Rubino - Craig Hemke - No Light at the End of the Tunnel #4302

April 15, 2019 17:16 - 32 minutes - 45.1 MB

John Rubino says that all the gloom and doom stuff can be depressing, but it needs to be looked at as an investment thesis and a tremendous opportunity. Craig Hemke believes that interest cuts could happen much faster than believed if the stock markets start tanking. One thing is for certain, interest rates aren't going up anytime soon. It's the only weapon left in their arsenal. But will it work? John and Craig both agree that while it might seem effective in the short run, in the long run t...

David Scranton - Fed "Independence" #4301

April 15, 2019 14:52 - 19 minutes - 27 MB

White House advisor Larry Kudlow says Fed should 'immediately' cut rates Larry Kudlow, Director of the United States National Economic Council. Top White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow wants the Federal Reserve to "immediately" cut interest rates by 50 basis points. "I am echoing the president's view – he's not been bashful about that view – he would also like the Fed to cease shrinking its balance sheet. And I concur with that view," Kudlow told CNBC Friday. "Looking at some of the indi...

Lior Gantz - Get Ready for QE4 #4300

April 15, 2019 14:44 - 27 minutes - 38 MB

The US has limited alternatives to deal with a possible recession. QE4 by any name will certainly be high on the Fed's list of warding it off. Lior says, "It's like a training that's going to crash at some point." You know it's going to happen and you can either jump now or later, but either way it's going to be painful and potentially dangerous. 

Round Table with Gordon T. Long & Charles Hugh Smith #4299

April 11, 2019 19:01 - 35 minutes - 48.1 MB

Financial experts Gordon T. Long and Charles Hugh Smith join FSN for a discussion on what went/is going wrong with the American Experiment. Obviously among the culprits, corrupt government, corporatization, financialization and inflation to name just a few. The solution is very straight forward and simple. Go back to localization, bring back the institutions that once made America great. The mom and pop stores and merchants who had a connection with their communities. The bankers who lived am...

Henry Weingarten - Astrological Perspective on Financial Markets #4298

April 10, 2019 21:37 - 19 minutes - 26.3 MB

Henry Weingarten used to run the Astrologers Fund. His investment philosophy combines a healthy dose of fundamental and technical analysis along with a look at the stars. He believes we're in for a near term 3-13% correction in US Stock Markets, but they'll finish 2019 higher. He's also calling for gold to finish higher in 2019 and 2020. Oil will come down to the $52-58 per barrel range from its current mid 60's perch. USD is looking good but gold is looking better. Interesting times ahead.

Dr. John Huber - Is Political Correctness Another Form of Mental Illness #4296

April 10, 2019 17:00 - 20 minutes - 28.6 MB

It's no secret that many thousands of people are taking meds to deal with Trump Anxiety Disorder. But even more have recently jumped on the medication bandwagon to help cope with Mueller Disappoint Psychosis. It all stems from PC or political correctness. The inability to deal with other's disagreeable opinions which leads to spending long periods of time in safe spaces and generally withdrawing from reality, when it doesn't suit your beliefs. Yes it's a disease and one that we must desperate...

John Lott - Red Flag on Red Flag Laws #4295

April 09, 2019 20:18 - 27 minutes - 37.2 MB

There’s an alarming trend taking place in many states across the nation. So-called Red Flag Laws are being passed that allow states to confiscate an individual’s firearms based solely upon rumors and anonymous reports. There’s no real provision for due process or notice. The police simply show up on one’s doorstep demanding their guns. Somehow one can reasonably believe that the founding fathers never provided for such an outcome. 

George Papadopoulos - The Big Frame! #4294

April 09, 2019 18:16 - 23 minutes - 31.8 MB

George Papadopoulos was minding his own business when suddenly he became the centerpiece of the Trump - Russia collusion investigation. At first, when Mueller came knocking, he was quite shocked. He was being accused of the crime of the century. His alleged misdeeds earned him 12 nights in a minimum security prison. Now he gets to tell his story. The CIA and FBI along with several of America's closest allies were setting him up to enable them to obtain FISA warrants to spy on the Trump Campai...

Ivan Bebek - Getting Closer and Closer #4293

April 08, 2019 14:27 - 19 minutes - 26.6 MB

Ivan Bebek, CEO of Auryn Resources is having trouble sleeping at night. That's because he's personally convinced that he's on the brink of a major discovery at the Sombrero Project in Peru. Recent rock sampling has only added to his conviction and has made him even more positive. Ivan has also invested big in artificial intelligence (AI) for the Company's Committee Bay Project. While Auryn's team of geologists is top-tier, the addition of AI has further focused and directed their efforts to t...

Daniel Ameduri - Trump Cannabis Nation #4292

April 07, 2019 16:06 - 19 minutes - 26.4 MB

Daniel Ameduri gives us a first hand report from the Southern White House. All Presidential functions are now tightly controlled, attendees are required to surrender their cellphones and electronic devices before meeting with President Trump. No pictures are allowed. Dan was part of a very diverse group. Children were in attendance. It was a great event with a wonderful brunch.  Dan also got the word on the Trump Cannabis policy. It's expected that at a crucial time prior to the 2020 election...

Edward Karr - On The Trail of a Major Discovery #4291

April 04, 2019 21:13 - 22 minutes - 30.3 MB

Renowned geologist Dave Mathewson had been acquiring claims in the famed Nevada Cortez Hills Trend for many years. He connected with Ed Karr, a well known trader and founder of several investment management and investment banking firms. Thus was born US Gold Corp (an FSN Sponsor). Mathewson has high hopes for the project and so does Karr. It's located nearby several other prolific mines that have been producing huge quantities of gold for decades, and its geology appears very similar. It coul...

Tom Gandolfi - Plan For Retirement or It Will Plan For You #4290

April 04, 2019 20:03 - 20 minutes - 28.5 MB

Retirement planning is a must. Unfortunately most people don't start until it's too late, hoping that things will just work out. As they say, if you're not planning to succeed, you're planning to fail. No wonder so many people approaching retirement find themselves in such a bind. The lesson is simple, start saving early and often!

Kenneth Ameduri - Bitcoin Taking Off Again? #4289

April 04, 2019 18:02 - 26 minutes - 36.6 MB

Bitcoin just broke $5000 today. Is this the start of something major or another fake rally? Ken is of the opinion that it could be the start of the next Bitcoin upward move. After all, it's competition to government backed currencies and competition is good for everyone, right? Let's see where it goes. 

Danielle Park - The Cycle is Heading Down #4288

April 03, 2019 19:49 - 25 minutes - 35.1 MB

Disappointing employment numbers, declining home sales and prices in Canada, the US and Australia, among others and bad US employment numbers, it's all happening. We'll see about the stock market. Earnings are certainly declining. There will be a day of reckoning and probably sooner than later. When that day comes, there will be tons of opportunities for amazing values. The key is to be prepared for when it all comes to pass. 

Jeff Clark - Time to be Buying Gold? #4287

April 03, 2019 19:41 - 22 minutes - 31.4 MB

Jeff Clark has long experience in precious metals. As we all know, when it comes to the economy, things are never as they appear to be. Just like in 2008-09, the government was telling us that everything was okay and there was nothing to be worried about. It was just a small problem with sub-prime mortgages and it wouldn't affect the economy at-large. But they were very wrong and it cost people dearly. What will set off the next crisis? We can't possibly know, but there are many black swans c...

Jim Oliver - Obscure Life Insurance Policies Could Be The Key #4286

April 03, 2019 17:55 - 26 minutes - 35.7 MB

Jim Oliver is a financial planner, but he's always look for a profitable angle. He describes policies that have all but been forgotten by most agents, but they have features that make them very attractive. He looks for non-paper based assets such as private businesses to make higher than average returns. Jim has the answers. 

Steve Rhodes - Timing is Everything in Life #4285

April 02, 2019 18:02 - 24 minutes - 33.6 MB

Steve Rhodes loves numbers. By following the numbers and the cycles he's able to make some very savvy and profitable market calls. He's been at it for a long time. At present he believes that gold is eventually headed higher, but if it breaks below 1280 per ounce, it could take an unwanted hundred dollar detour. He has his own opinion of the stock market, which also could go higher and higher. That probably makes him a contrarian too. Listen to his calls on oil, the dollar and stock markets a...

Brent Johnson - The Milkshake Explains It All #4284

April 01, 2019 23:08 - 35 minutes - 48.1 MB

Brent Johnson, CEO of Santiago Capital, has come up with a unifying theory of what's been going on in the financial world for the past decade. It's called the Milkshake Theory. As Brent explains it, central banks responded to the 2008-09 Crash with unlimited liquidity to keep the world afloat. Unfortunately, once the toothpaste is out of the tube, there's no way to get it back in. And all sorts of unintended consequences happen. Art and real estate prices soar, consumer prices stay low and go...

Triple Lutz Report #468 - Pete Buttplug for Pres - Mind Your Manners

April 01, 2019 21:11 - 24 minutes - 33.6 MB

Pete Buttigieg mayor of South Bend, IN is running for president. If you can't pronounce his last name, just say Buttplug! The Democrat lineup is truly a freak show. Pocahontas, Kamala, Corey or the candidate du jour. Anyone who's ever had a desire to run for president has either announced or will announce shortly. Let's see how whacked out the lineup can get. Whatever happened to manners and common courtesy. We take a close look at the issue and explain why they're so important. We also look ...

John Rubino - Is the Fed Buying Gold? #4283

April 01, 2019 19:26 - 31 minutes - 42.9 MB

It's no secret that centrals banks across the world have been accumulating gold. The word is out on China and India and others. However, has the Fed been doing the same? Unfortunately, due to the lack of transparency, we can't establish this one way or the other. However, the Fed gets the best information and has the so-called brightest minds working there, so it wouldn't be outrageous to believe in the possibility. But we won't know until they want us too. 

Dr. William H. Northam - Return to Capitalism? #4282

April 01, 2019 19:22 - 15 minutes - 21.3 MB

Dr. William H. Northam says, "Taking the political structure into account it seems that far more Democrats have a positive view of socialism than of capitalism. If accurate, is this bad news for Democrats, and worse news for the country as a whole? Does this expose Democrats as completely out-of-touch with mainstream America? Does it show that the far left has cemented its grip on the party? What is a socialist? What is the basis for their views?"

Mickey Fulp - Monthly Major Market Review (March 2019)

April 01, 2019 17:34 - 22 minutes - 31.5 MB

US Stock markets DOW flat in March S&P up and NASDAQ up 2.6%. Canadian markets up and emerging markets down. Dollar up, Euro down, Bitcoin up, 10 year treasury yield way way down. Metals got hit badly, with the exception of Palladium. Copper slammed. WTI up 5.2% for the month. Natgas was down 3.6%. Uranium was back down over 10%. Gold/silver ratio approaching 86. Plat to Pal up a bit to .62. That's it for March, check back next month for April's performance.  DJIA 3/31/19            2592...

Bill Whittle - Liberalism Equals Failure #4281

March 28, 2019 08:34 - 28 minutes - 39.5 MB

Why are the schools so awful and failing to educate our children? It's by design according to noted conservative Bill Whittle. We've attempted to insulate our children from their greatest teacher, failure. And the results have been predictable, complete and utter failure. Unfortunately for humanity, there's no other way to build self-esteem and learn. It's just the way we're wired. Same thing with our cities. For nearly a century they have become petty dishes of liberal experimentation. And t...

Marco Santarelli - Real Estate Cycle Not Finished Yet #4280

March 27, 2019 21:44 - 18 minutes - 25.3 MB

Marco Santarelli bought his first property at age 18 and has been investing in real estate ever since. He sees a definite split in the market between the glamorous go-go markets on the coasts and the boring markets everywhere else. He's looking for cash-flow and where possible, capital appreciation. While finding inventory has definitely become more challenging, Marco believes we are heading for a major housing shortage. New home construction is lagging and this will help keep real estate inv...

Eric Peters - Modern Cars Taking Away Our Freedom #4279

March 27, 2019 15:21 - 26 minutes - 35.9 MB

Get this straight, you are no longer in control of your car. Rather it's controlled by a series of algorithms that auto companies believe know better than you. A number of so-called safety systems actually increase the chances of an accident. Ever tried adaptive cruise control, it requires you to be 8 car lengths from the vehicle in front of you. Give me a 1968 GTO with 2 four barrels any day of the week. 

Gary Wagner - Ned Schmidt - Roundtable #4278

March 26, 2019 19:41 - 26 minutes - 36.7 MB

Gary Wagner and Ned Schmidt joined us to discuss the current state of the dollar, precious metals, the markets and how to capitalize on the upcoming break-out. We're seeing major resistance in gold that will eventually be broken. There are many potential catalysts but no can tell what's going to eventually do the job. Let's see what happens next. 

John Rubino - Trump Triumphs! #4277

March 26, 2019 18:48 - 20 minutes - 28.2 MB

We don't usually discuss politics on the show, after all this is a family publication. However, Trump's exoneration has led to an interesting state of affairs with potentially wide reaching market effects. Now that he's unshackled, Trump is free to pursue his agenda with little or no distraction. While the Dems control the House, they seem to be having a major meltdown. The far left never cared about Muh Russia. They just wanted Trump out on whatever grounds they could get him on. The other p...

David Morgan - Chris Vermeulen - Precious Metals Roundtable 3-26-19 #4276

March 26, 2019 14:59 - 32 minutes - 44.3 MB

David Morgan and Chris Vermeulen joined us for a roundtable to discuss where precious metals are at the present moment, where the cycle is heading and how best to capitalize on this major potential opportunity. An interesting session for sure. 

Triple Lutz Report #467 - Did Mueller Make a Deal and Who Says Infamous MI6 Spy Christopher Steele Really Retired?

March 25, 2019 05:19 - 24 minutes - 32.9 MB

It's finally over, the Mueller investigation bit the dust and fell apart rather suddenly, which leads us to believe that a deal was made. In exchange for Trump forgiving his would be deposers, they dropped it. Seems the Deep State didn't want those FISA and Spygate Docs revealed to the general public. Did it happen this way? Mueller has a history of running shady investigations that just seem to go away, remember TWA Flight 800 and the bogus explanation of why it crashed? On a lighter matter,...

Jerry Robinson, David Erfie, Craig Hemke, Buck Joffrey, and David Horowitz

Nick Santiago - Follow the Fed! #4275

March 20, 2019 18:41 - 21 minutes - 30 MB

Ace trader Nick Santiago nails it again! No more interest rate hikes and Nick is call for a September cut. Sounds like it's good for gold, which Nick believes is setting up a very bullish chart pattern. Stock market has probably peaked. Dollar to go higher and yield to fall on treasuries. Connect the dots and make money!

Craig Hemke - He's Right as Usual #4274

March 20, 2019 18:24 - 26 minutes - 36 MB

Craig and I discussed the then upcoming Fed Meeting. Craig believed they would do nothing, and they didn't disappoint. Rate hikes are off the table now, probably because the next recession is on its way. Was does that mean for you? Gold is likely getting ready to bust through the 1350-1380 major resistance point and you want to be on the right side of that trade. We've seen this before and we'll see it again soon. Craig also said that the Fed's asset disposition program would be tapered off. ...

Buck Joffrey - Don't Go For The Gold #4273

March 20, 2019 18:07 - 28 minutes - 39.1 MB

Buck Joffrey, MD turned real estate investor is bearish on gold. He sees much more potential in real estate than in the yellow metal. He doesn't believe all the doom and gloomers, of which he used to be one. Forget about hyperinflation and dollar collapse. Forget about cities and states ready to declare bankruptcy. It doesn't matter. And neither does the escalating debt. Real estate is still the place to be. 

Danielle Park - Time to Tax Debt? 4272

March 19, 2019 19:24 - 24 minutes - 34 MB

Of all of man’s addictions, debt is perhaps the most harmful and destructive. Time and again, profligate debt and spending has brought down civilizations. And it’s  happening now. The Trump Admin has proposed holding colleges and universities liable for their defaulting students. A great first step that will probably never happen, due to the powerful educational-industrial lobby. But why stop there, why not tax debt or at least prohibit its deductibility? We need to see interest rates go to t...

Robert Paolini - Escape to Florida #4271

March 19, 2019 18:59 - 16 minutes - 23 MB

Accoding to Florida real estate expert Robert Paolini, unlike many real estate markets around the country, Florida is booming. In many cities there are construction cranes as far as the eye can see. They could even be mistaken for downtown Shanghai. It’s partly due to a long term population shift, with more Northerners moving for better weather, but it’s also being caused by runaway taxes in northern states and California, et al. Either way, it looks like it’s going to continue for quite a wh...

David Horowitz - Dark Agenda - The War to Destroy Christian America #4270

March 19, 2019 18:57 - 14 minutes - 19.9 MB

Noted author and conservative activist David Horowitz believes that there’s a war being conducted by the Left to destroy Christian America. Every day, the Left attacks more and more US traditions and customs. There’s no respect for anything that the country has achieved. It’s all about the evil of the racist Founding Fathers and white privilege. But David believes the right will win in the end.

Dr. Gerard Lameiro - The Demise of the Democrat Party #4269

March 19, 2019 14:59 - 27 minutes - 37 MB

Gerard Lemairo has been predicting the demise of the current Democrat Party since 2015. It appears that this prediction is coming to pass. With the rise of anti-Semitic factions, pro-socialist interests and the inability of Nancy Pelosi to lead the House, how much longer can this Party go on? Gerard thinks 2021 will be the official date of its downfall, right after Trump wins his second term. Will Gerard be right?

David Erfle - What Consolidation in the Gold Sector Really Means #4268

March 18, 2019 18:02 - 22 minutes - 31.1 MB

There's many changes afoot in the gold mining sector. The so-called GDX-J appears to be ready undergo another makeover. This time non-cashflowing companies will be removed from the index. Only producers and royalty companies will be included. What about all those exploration companies? How will this impact their ability to raise capital? We talk extensively about Barrick-Newmont-Goldcorp and where they're heading. Large numbers of projects will be spun-off to raise capital and lower debt. Wha...
