Trader Who Saw 1987, 2000 & 2008 Warns: ‘I Can See a Collapse Coming Now’ | Todd ‘Bubba’ Horwitz
Miles Franklin Media: 7-6-2026
Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief of Miles Franklin Media, speaks with Todd “Bubba” Horwitz, Founder & Chief Market Strategist at BubbaTrading.com, who warns that he sees another major market collapse forming after 47 years of trading through historic booms and busts.
Horwitz says the warning signs are everywhere – from overvalued markets and AI-driven job losses to a housing market he says looks “almost an instant replay” of 2008. He argues the Fed has “destroyed true capitalism,” predicts the 10-year Treasury yield could hit 6%, and warns stocks could face a 40% to 60% decline.
Horwitz also explains why he would be buying physical gold and silver now, why he believes paper gold resembles a “Ponzi scheme,” and why Bitcoin could still have upside despite near-term downside risk.
He and Michelle also discuss America’s 250th anniversary, the erosion of free enterprise, socialism, debt, inflation, and whether the country is “melting down from within.”
