Matthew Piepenburg: Depression Level Economy For The U.S. Is Here

Palisades Gold Radio:  12-12-23

Tom welcomes back Matthew Piepenburg of Matterhorn Asset Management. They discusses various empirical indicators that suggest the US and the world are facing a recession.

Matthew points to the yield curve, the Conference Board of Leading Indicators, the M2 money supply, the Fitch downgrade of the US Treasury, and the layoffs of major companies as evidence of an economic downturn.

He also highlights the increase in bankruptcies, credit card delinquencies, and car loan repos, and refers to the "Oliver Anthony indicator" which reflects the struggles of the middle class due to non-reported inflation.

Piepenburg warns against placing too much faith in technology to solve economic problems and emphasizes the importance of human insight. He argues that the US is in a depression rather than just a recession.

He also discusses the risks of currency devaluation, the dangers of government centralization of power, and the need for financial policies and austerity measures.

Piepenburg criticizes the lack of transparent political figures and the influence of special interests and lobbyists. He warns of potential consequences of the current trends in bond buying, the transition away from the US dollar, and the potential changes to the global financial system.

He suggests that the COVID-19 pandemic may be a catalyst for structural changes in the financial system.

Lastly, he highlights the rise of the Shanghai Gold Exchange as a potential competitor to London and COMEX in determining the price of gold.
