The "Real Assets Lockout" Has Already Begun | Nomi Prins

Dr. Nomi Prins says the forces driving capital into hard assets are accelerating, and the Fed has become the only backstop for U.S. debt.Speaking with Kitco News at the Rule Symposium 2026, the Prinsights Global founder and Permanent Distortion author reaffirmed her call for $6,000 gold by year-end. "Does the United States have a debt crisis? The United States has a Fed," she said.Prins also pushed back on the market's read of the new Fed chair: "I think ultimately the Fed will have to reduce rates in order for us to service our debt. I think that Kevin Warsh is waiting for that moment." She pointed to China cutting its Treasury holdings from $1.3 trillion to $620 billion in favor of gold, and five billion ounces of paper silver trading in the SLV ETF alone against roughly 800 million mined each year, as signs the hard asset supercycle is still early.Recorded July 07, 2026.Special thanks to our sponsor, Aris Mining, for making this coverage possible.
