Assets That Will Save You in the Currency Reset
Alfonso Peccatiello: Assets that Will Save You in The Currency Reset
Palisades Gold Radio: Jan 29, 2022
Tom welcomes Alfonso Peccatiello author of the Macro Compass Substack to the show.
Alfonso discusses the main drivers of economic growth and the effects of demographics. The labor force had been growing before the 80s but now with fewer children and older populations, it has plateaued and begun to decline.
These changes are long-term and structural.
After 1971 and the scrapping of the gold standard there was a shift back to a fully elastic credit system. Hard assets are no longer required to back the currency.
Society wants annual growth higher than one percent and today we use credit to expand the money supply. This can promote growth as it causes people to feel more wealthy which encourages spending.
Alf explains how there are two different forms of money in the system today. One is bank reserves and the other is the real economy.
Q.E. expands the central bank balance sheet reserves but these reserves never flow to the real economy. They are used between banks to settle payments.
Q.E. creates secondary and tertiary effects that eventually reach the stock markets and affect asset prices.
Reverse Repos operate as a relief valve for excess reserves because the Fed wants to keep bond yields in positive territory. So Repo’s is a facility where banks can park reserves and receive a small yield instead of purchasing bonds.
The main reason that bonds are bought today is due to regulatory requirements. Banks are required to hold bonds which are considered liquid assets. Pension funds also buy long-term bonds as a hedge to mitigate future risk.
He explains the Fed's approach to maintaining their dual mandate of full employment and price stability. Currently, they are in a very tight spot as inflation is running hot. The system is built around debt and is 'working' according to the establishment.
There are no politically acceptable alternatives therefore the existing system is just extended by whatever means necessary.
Lastly, he discusses his approach to protecting his portfolio in this debt-based system.
Talking Points From This Week's Episode
- Why the long-term drives of economic growth have peaked.
- How the modern unbacked elastic credit system operates.
- The two forms of money and why they are often confused.
- The Fed’s approach to price stability and full employment.

Sunday Dinar Update: Things Are Moving FAST!
The Dinar Den: 9-6-2026
Iraq’s financial landscape is undergoing a pivotal transition as state institutions work toward comprehensive economic modernization. Market analysts, economists, and international observers have increasingly turned their focus to the Iraqi dinar (IQD) and the broader policy adjustments managed by the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI).
Understanding these developments requires evaluating a combination of legal frameworks, currency circulation metrics, banking sector overhauls, and significant political milestones.

China Just Triggered the Biggest Gold and Silver Rally in 50 Years: Luke Groman
Slick Finance: 9-5-2026
The global financial landscape is experiencing a profound transformation, characterized by a steady shift away from traditional dollar-centric foreign exchange reserves.
As nations reevaluate their monetary strategies in an increasingly interconnected yet fractured world, a new global monetary dynamic is taking shape. At the center of this evolution is the enduring appeal of gold, which is rapidly emerging as the preferred neutral reserve asset for sovereign entities seeking stability, security, and independence from legacy financial systems.
