Wealthion - Be Financially Resilient

Is the U.S. stock market more overvalued than at any point in the last 150 years—except for 1927? Economist Mark Thornton, Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute, believes today's extreme valuations, rising leverage, and mounting fiscal pressures are creating the conditions for a major market reckoning. In this conversation with Maggie Lake, Thornton explains why he sees elevated risks for equities, why he believes gold and silver may have already found a bottom despite recent weakness, and how shifting interest rate expectations, a weakening dollar, and growing government deficits could trigger a powerful rotation into precious metals. He also shares his controversial view on the Federal Reserve's true priorities and what investors should watch as markets navigate an increasingly uncertain macro environment. 💡 To watch Maggie's full interview with Mark Thornton + more exclusive content, join Wealthion's Real Asset community at https://bit.ly/3ReXl9s 💡 If Mark Thornton is right that today's stock market is approaching historic valuation extremes while gold and silver are building a long-term bottom, now may be the time to consider adding precious metals to your portfolio.

For years, investors have been rewarded by simply buying America—but Francis Hunt of The Market Sniper argues that era may be coming to an end. In this interview with Maggie Lake, Hunt explains why U.S. exceptionalism could gradually fade as rising debt, persistent currency debasement, and shifting global capital flows reshape the investment landscape. He warns that relying solely on American assets may leave investors exposed and makes the case for jurisdictional diversification, gold, and precious metals as protection against a weakening fiat system. 💡 If Francis Hunt's outlook on gold, global diversification, and shifting economic leadership has you rethinking your investment strategy, connect with Wealthion's endorsed financial advisors for a free portfolio review: https://bit.ly/4gRXFFo 💡 Interested in the investment case for gold, precious metals, and real assets?

China isn't trying to replace the U.S. dollar overnight—but according to Francis Hunt of The Market Sniper, it doesn't have to. In this interview with Maggie Lake, Hunt explains why China's steady accumulation of gold, changing global trade dynamics, and the world's growing debt burden are creating a slow but powerful shift in the global monetary system. Rather than expecting a sudden collapse, he argues investors should focus on the long-term erosion of dollar dominance that's already underway. Hunt also explains why he believes precious metals remain in a secular bull market, why pullbacks shouldn't shake long-term investors, and how China's actions could continue supporting gold prices for years to come. Topics discussed: * Why China continues buying gold * The gradual decline of dollar dominance * Gold's long-term outlook * Debt, fiat currencies, and monetary risk * Why emerging markets could benefit from the shift * What investors should watch next 💡 Francis Hunt believes China's steady accumulation of gold is part of a long-term shift away from dollar dominance.

Henrik Zeberg says the market’s most dangerous phase may still be ahead — a final, violent melt-up that could send risk assets sharply higher before the entire cycle turns. In this interview, Zeberg lays out why he believes investors are being pulled into the last stage of the bull market, why the Nasdaq could still surge, and why the endgame may be brutal: recession, deflation, collapsing risk assets, and a rush into cash. This is not a soft landing call. Zeberg argues the “everything rally” may be the trap — and that when it breaks, there may be nowhere to hide. Watch before the melt-up turns into the crash. 💡If Henrik Zeberg is right, the next phase could be a final market melt-up before a brutal downturn — making now the time to pressure-test your portfolio.

Michael Howell, Managing Director at GL Indexes, warns that the global liquidity cycle is rolling over — just as AI spending, inflation pressure, Treasury stress, and China’s gold strategy are reshaping markets. In this interview with Maggie Lake, Howell explains why AI may be inflationary before it becomes deflationary, why the U.S. economy is pulling liquidity out of financial markets, and why investors may be moving from “speculation” into a more dangerous phase of the cycle. He also breaks down why he believes China is the real force driving gold, how crypto is flashing a liquidity warning, and why the Fed’s 2% inflation target may be fantasy. This is a must-watch for investors trying to understand what comes next for stocks, bonds, gold, Bitcoin, oil, and real assets as liquidity tightens and inflation risk return 💡Michael Howell says the global liquidity cycle is rolling over, AI may add to inflation pressure, and investors may be moving from speculation into turbulence.

Ronnie Stoeferle, partner at Incrementum AG and co-author of the In Gold We Trust report, joins Wealthion’s Trey Reik to explain why gold’s rally may be about much more than a normal bull market.Stoeferle argues that gold is signaling a deeper loss of trust in the dollar-based monetary system, as de-dollarization, inflation volatility, central bank buying, and rising geopolitical risk reshape the global financial order. He also explains why gold may be entering the public participation phase of its bull market — with institutional investors only beginning to wake up to the role gold can play in portfolios.In this conversation, Ronnie and Trey discuss whether the Pax Americana is coming to a close, why fiat currencies look different when measured in gold, whether this is a monetary revaluation rather than a normal gold cycle, and what the In Gold We Trust report reveals about the future of money. 💡Ronnie Stoeferle says gold’s rally may be signaling something much bigger than a normal bull market — a shift in trust, inflation, and the global monetary order.

Fertilizer may be one of the most overlooked pressure points in the global economy — and Josh Linville says the current crisis is already hitting farmers hard. Josh Linville, Vice President of Fertilizer at StoneX Financial, joins Maggie Lake to explain why the feared “global famine” headlines may be overstated, but the fertilizer supply shock is very real. He breaks down why farmers are bearing the brunt of higher costs, how China’s fertilizer export restrictions are reshaping the market, and why pricing and supply problems could stretch into 2027. Linville also explains why the Strait of Hormuz disruption, Russia/Ukraine fertilizer flows, urea shortages, and rising protectionism could create longer-term risks for food prices, supply chains, and investors watching real assets. 💡Josh Linville breaks down why fertilizer could be the next major real-assets risk hiding in plain sight.

George Goncalves, Head of U.S. Macro Strategy at MUFG, joins Maggie Lake to explain why the market may be underestimating a dangerous form of “stealth tightening.” Goncalves says the Fed may not have officially hiked rates — but the bond market has effectively done it for them. With borrowing costs still high, energy prices rising, consumers stretched, and equity markets trading “on their own planet,” he warns that the pressure is building beneath the surface. Could this be the moment when higher rates finally start to hurt? And if markets can no longer ignore the cost of funding, private credit risk, and stretched valuations — what breaks first? In this interview, Goncalves breaks down why the bond market is sending a warning, why recession odds could rise into the second half, and why investors may be facing a much weaker economic backdrop than the stock market suggests. 💡George Goncalves says “the markets hiked for the Fed” — and these high rates are starting to hurt.

Is the bond market really warning of a U.S. debt crisis — or are investors misreading a distorted market signal? Michael Green, Chief Strategist and Portfolio Manager at Simplify Asset Management, joins Maggie Lake to explain why passive investing, regulation, and hidden leverage may be warping the way markets price risk. He argues that what many see as a collapse warning in long-term bonds may actually be a mechanical consequence of how capital is being allocated. Green also breaks down why investors may be ignoring one of the clearest retirement opportunities in years, why liquidity is weakening beneath mega-cap stocks, and why he believes the “real craziness” in markets may still be ahead. 💡Michael Green warns that passive investing, hidden leverage, and distorted market signals may be leaving investors exposed to risks they don’t fully see.

Legendary gold investor Pierre Lassonde joins Wealthion’s Trey Reik to explain why he believes gold’s bull market is far from over — and why his $17,000 gold target may be more floor than fantasy. Lassonde argues that today’s market has eerie similarities to the 1970s: energy shocks, sticky inflation, rising deficits, financial repression, and a political system with little will to tackle the debt. He says those forces are reshaping the investment landscape and could drive gold dramatically higher as investors seek protection from currency debasement and declining confidence in paper assets. In this conversation, Lassonde breaks down his Dow-to-gold ratio framework, why he believes the Federal Reserve may not be able to stop inflation the way Paul Volcker did, and why gold remains one of the clearest signals of stress in the global monetary system. 💡Pierre Lassonde says $17,000 gold may be more “floor” than fantasy as deficits, inflation, and monetary change reshape the investment landscape.

Jim Bianco warns that beneath the market’s record highs, the rally is dangerously narrow — with AI and chip stocks doing most of the heavy lifting while large parts of the market struggle. He explains why AI may be the most important force in financial markets right now, how one private AI company is distorting S&P 500 earnings, and why investors may need to rethink what realistic returns look like in this new regime. 💡Jim Bianco says AI is now the most important force in financial markets — even bigger than oil, war, or recession fears.

Lacalle argues that persistent inflation, rising government debt, and what he calls a coming “monetary tsunami” are eroding the purchasing power of salaries, cash, and deposit savings. He explains why long-term bonds may no longer act as the safe haven investors expect, why real assets are rising as currencies lose value, and why stocks could continue to melt up even as the real economy feels weaker. From sovereign debt risk and higher yields to gold, silver, copper, coal, China, Europe, and the future of American exceptionalism, Lacalle lays out why investors may need to rethink how they protect wealth in a world of fiscal excess and currency debasement. 💡Join Wealthion’s Real Assets Community for exclusive real-assets research and interviews: https://bit.ly/4wIBO8Q Chapters: 00:00 Why Investors Are Mispricing Risk 00:58 Bonds May No Longer Protect Portfolios 02:56 The “Monetary Tsunami” Ahead 05:49 Are We Facing a Sovereign Bond Crisis? 08:04 Why Voters Keep Demanding More Spending 11:20 Savers, Inflation & Lost Purchasing Power 13:11 Why Rate Cuts May Not Fix Higher Yields 15:42 Can Stocks Melt Up Anyway? 18:13 Why Value Investors Face a Tough Market 20:46 Stranded Assets & Government Tax Risk 24:02 Why the U.S. Still Leads Global Markets 27:39 China, Central Planning & American Exceptionalism 31:50 Gold, Silver & the Role of Real Assets 35:09 The New Global Economic Order 41:03 Geopolitical Risk, Ukraine & Iran 44:35 Final Thoughts Connect with us online: Website: https://www.wealthion.com X: https://www.x.com/wealthion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wealthionofficial/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/wealthion/ #Wealthion #DanielLacalle #MaggieLake #Inflation #Savers #PurchasingPower #RealAssets #Gold #Silver #Commodities #CurrencyDebasement #MoneySupply #Investing #Finance #Markets #Macro #Economy #Wealth #PortfolioStrategy #WealthManagement ________________________________________________________________________ IMPORTANT NOTE: The information, opinions, and insights expressed by our guests and our hosts do not necessarily reflect the views of Wealthion or the views of their respective employers.

Bianco explains why the bond market is reacting to renewed inflation risk, why the path from expected rate cuts to possible rate hikes has happened so quickly, and why higher Treasury yields could eventually start to weigh on stocks. He also breaks down the narrow AI-led rally, with Nvidia earnings putting the market’s dependence on chip stocks and data-center spending back in focus.

💡Get a free review with Wealthion’s trusted financial advisors at https://bit.ly/4d24TD6 Truflation CEO Stefan Rust joins Chris Perkins to explain why the official inflation story may be dangerously behind the curve — and why markets could be underestimating the next wave of price pressure. Rust says traditional inflation data is too slow for today’s AI-driven, real-time economy, arguing that Truflation can capture price movements far faster than legacy government models. He warns that rising energy costs, fertilizer disruption, supply-chain stress, and food inflation could hit harder than many investors expect — especially outside the U.S. He also breaks down why AI may not be deflationary in the short term, pointing to massive data-center capex, surging demand for energy, skilled labor, cooling systems, transformers, concrete, and infrastructure. Plus, Rust explains how Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins, prediction markets, and agentic AI could reshape inflation, currencies, and the global economy.

💡Get a free review with Wealthion’s trusted financial advisors at https://bit.ly/3P2nE1y Jesse Felder, founder of The Felder Report, joins Maggie Lake to warn that investors may be dramatically underestimating the risks building beneath today’s market rally. Felder argues the world has entered a new structural inflationary era driven by deglobalization, soaring debt, commodity shortages, and geopolitical instability — with potentially massive implications for bonds, stocks, and the broader economy. Felder explains why he believes the bond market is the “most important chart in the world,” why rising commodity prices could send yields sharply higher, and why real assets like gold, energy, and commodities may continue outperforming traditional financial assets. He also lays out a detailed case for why today’s AI boom resembles the dot-com bubble, warning that hyperscalers may face collapsing free cash flow, rising costs, and unrealistic earnings expectations.

💡FREE access to the full interview with Trey + Nick Lawson & Ben Finegold + more EXCLUSIVE real-assets content by joining Wealthion’s Real Assets Community: https://bit.ly/4dq4X0T What if the biggest threat to AI, energy, and global growth isn’t oil… but the raw materials no one is talking about? In this conversation, Wealthion host Trey Reich sits down with Nick Lawson and Ben Finegold of Ocean Wall to break down what they call the “molecular war” — a global battle for critical resources like helium, uranium, tungsten, and metallurgical coal. While markets obsess over AI, semiconductors, and energy, Lawson and Finegold argue the real opportunity — and risk — lies in the “golden screws”: the small, irreplaceable inputs that power everything from data centers to defense systems. From a sudden collapse in global helium supply to China’s dominance in critical minerals, this interview reveals why supply chains are more fragile than ever — and why a major commodities bull market may already be underway. 💡On May 9th, Wealthion is holding a virtual conference FREE for accredited investors: An Insider's Guide Into Investing in Real Assets and Private Placements.

Equities continue to climb, fueled by AI and strong momentum, but under the surface, warning signs are building.

Markets are being pulled in two directions. On one side: AI, innovation, and strong momentum in tech. On the other: rising geopolitical risk, energy shocks, and global fragmentation. In this conversation, Chris Perkins, General Spider Marks, and Peter Tchir break down what’s really happening beneath the surface—from Iran and China to AI on the battlefield and the future of global supply chains.

From the rise of AI-native companies to the challenge of valuing innovation, Brent explains why traditional investment frameworks may no longer apply—and why a “barbell” strategy could be critical in navigating what he calls a transition between two worlds: an old system under strain and a new, technology-driven future.

They unpack the dispersion of opinion between voices like Ed Yardeni and Peter Boockvar, seasoned traders like Tony Greer and Jared Dillian saying "it's hard right now," and a CEO friend running a global manufacturer who has "never dealt with so many variables" between tariffs, policy whiplash, and Asian competition.

💡If hyperinflation is coming, real assets are mandatory. Join Wealthion’s Real Assets Community: https://wealthion.com/realassets Mark Thornton, Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute, tells Trey Reich that we are on the on-ramp to the road to hyperinflation, and explains why gold and silver are headed back to new all-time highs. Mark breaks down the real mechanism behind gold's recent pullback during the Iran War: oil prices rising, CPI rising, and expected Fed rate cuts coming off the board. He argues the next Fed move will be a cut, not a hike, and walks through why the Austrian concept of malinvestment makes gold a mandatory portfolio asset until that tension resolves. Mark also points out that gold and silver miners are sitting on their best margins in years, now rivaling the Magnificent 7. He closes with his 2026 outlook: a narrowing gold-silver ratio, and gold prices that could rise by thousands of dollars. 💡Want a second opinion on your portfolio?

💡Is your portfolio positioned for sectors that can get permanently repriced? Get a free portfolio review with Chris and the team WindRock: https://bit.ly/4vw245F Chris Casey joins Maggie Lake to explain why SaaS stocks have crashed 30 to 60% since February and what it means heading into earnings season. He argues the real threat is not software demand alone, but the seat-based SaaS business model, as AI agents could reduce the number of paying users many platforms rely on. Chris breaks down where investors may still find resilient software companies, especially those with proprietary data, vertical integration, and mission-critical workflows. He also explains why this looks more like a trading opportunity than a long-term all-clear, and why parts of the sector may have been permanently repriced. 💡Get to Know Chris Casey: His Journey, Strategy, and Financial Philosophy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2DdcqtoBYs 💡Join Wealthion’s Real Assets Community for EXCLUSIVE real-assets content and more: https://wealthion.com/real-assets 💡Protect your wealth with real Gold and Silver through GBI Direct: https://gbidirect.com/?aff=WTH 💡Attend Rick Rules’ Natural Resource Symposium in Boca Raton this July, click here for in-person and virtual tickets: https://cvent.me/XOqdLa?via=Wealthion Chapters: 1:09 - Software Stocks Under Siege Heading Into Earnings 2:19 - Separating the Winners From the Wreckage 5:18 - Who Survives When AI Eats the Business Model? 7:20 - Do Any Software Companies Still Have a Real Moat? 9:44 - Could AI Actually Be a Tailwind for SaaS? 10:25 - ⭐️Wealthion Golden Nugget: Does Size Matter in the Software Shakeout? 12:16 - Can These Stocks Ever Get Back to Their Highs? 13:40 - What Comes After Software Eats the World?
