Would You Loan This Guy Money?

Imagine your buddy makes far less money than he spends every month. He has maxed out all of his credit cards and yet keeps borrowing and spending as if he were a rich man.  Would you loan him more money? By the way, the person in the scenario is Uncle Sam.  In this episode of the Midweek Memo, Mike Maharrey takes a deep dive into the U.S. financial situation and reveals that, despite what many people would like you to believe, everything is not fine. He highlights the extent of the debt and why it matters.  In this episode, Mike also explains just how much gold there is in the world. (It's probably not as much as you think.)

There's a case to be made against gold right now.  And that bearish narrative is driving the markets right now.  In this week's Midweek Memo podcast, Mike Maharrey makes the case against gold -- and argues that it isn't very good. He explains why the perception currently controlling the markets will eventually be overwhelmed by reality.

Treasuries have historically served as a safe haven in times of geopolitical uncertainty.  Not this time. Bonds have sold off modestly since the beginning of the U.S.-Iran conflict, as evidenced by rising yields. As Mike Maharrey explains in this week's Midweek Memo podcast, it sure looks like gold is the last safe haven standing. He explains why Treasuries are struggling to catch a bid and how a long war could exacerbate the situation. He also highlights a note by UBS to make a bullish case for gold, war or no war.

Maybe you should invest like a dead man. Sounds crazy, right? But studies have shown accounts belonging to dead people often outperform those that are actively managed.  In this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey makes sense out of this phenomenon and explains why it's particularly valuable to understand during a war. He also highlights how the ongoing conflict with Iran is causing logistical disruptions to the precious metals markets, and speculates how the war could impact gold and silver prices down the road.

The U.S. has launched a war against Iran. What does that mean for gold and silver? Of course, war, but its very nature, is unpredictable. But we do have plenty of past wars we can look at to establish historical trends. In this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey does just that, looking at the trajectory of the gold price during past wars. He finds that war itself has not had the significant impact on gold prices one might expect. There are other dynamics we need to consider. In this episode, Mike also reminds listeners why they should take precious metals investment advice from the majority of mainstream financial planners or talking heads on the major networks.
