Kitco News: 4-11-2025
Gold is exploding to new record highs as global markets face escalating volatility, a collapsing U.S. dollar, and rising fears that the traditional safe-haven playbook no longer applies.
Spot gold has surged past $3,250 an ounce, with mining stocks finally catching a bid. Meanwhile, Treasury yields are spiking despite deteriorating economic data — pointing to a breakdown in the flight-to-safety narrative.
In this exclusive interview, Peter Schiff, Chief Market Strategist at Euro Pacific Asset Management, joins Jeremy Szafron, Anchor at Kitco News, to break down the perfect storm hitting the U.S. economy.
Schiff explains why America is headed for a deeper crisis than 2008, how global capital is fleeing U.S. assets, and why he believes the gold bull market is just getting started.
Schiff also takes on Bitcoin, stagflation, and the collapse of the dollar’s reserve status.
