Supercharged Inflation 2026, Prepare Now
Liberty and Finance: 9-11-2025
Ever feel like the economic news is a complex puzzle with pieces that don’t quite fit? You’re not alone.
In a recent, incredibly detailed discussion, Kaiser Johnson of Liberty and Finance hosted the brilliant Alasdair Macleod, a former bank director and head of research, to cut through the noise and offer a stark analysis of our current and near-future economic landscape.
Their insights are not just thought-provoking; they’re a crucial call to awareness.
Macleod, with his deep understanding of financial history and market mechanics, painted a picture of unprecedented challenges, drawing alarming parallels to historic financial crises, especially Germany’s hyperinflation period from 1920 to 1923. It’s a discussion every financially conscious individual needs to hear.
Macleod’s conclusion is sobering: these dynamics are pushing central banks and governments toward desperate measures, primarily the devaluation of currencies.
The US dollar, currently dominant, is expected to face a significant crash as the Federal Reserve and Treasury are forced to become buyers of last resort to prevent an outright economic collapse.
This environment perfectly defines stagflation: rising prices (inflation) coupled with economic stagnation or even contraction. Macleod emphasizes that this isn’t just a theoretical concept, but a real-world phenomenon, reminiscent of the 1970s.
He challenges mainstream economic views, stressing the fundamental link between production and consumption, and the undeniable reality that inflation can, and often does, coincide with economic downturns. This scenario, he asserts, strongly favors assets like gold.
Macleod didn’t stop at diagnosing the problem; he offered a powerful prescription. He stressed the paramount importance of owning real money – primarily gold – as a safeguard against the inevitable collapse of fiat currencies.
He also delivered a sharp critique of the financial industry’s current state, noting the alarmingly rare instance of financial advisors who actively educate their clients about the dangers of credit bubbles and impending currency collapse. Most, he suggests, are either unaware or unwilling to prepare investors for these risks.
These turbulent times demand greater financial literacy and preparedness. Don’t just watch from the sidelines – understand the forces at play and take steps to protect your financial future.
