”This isn't an hour of doom porn, but rather a sober look at how real markets and market players respond to incentives over time and in response to policy.”- Tom Luongo
Description:
This is Part II of the discussion between Tom Luongo, Tom Bodroviks of Palisades Gold Radio and myself. We all take turns trying to walk through mechanisms by which a market shifts from one place to another and why that has massive implications for the US dollar and the global economy. The original Palisades Broadcast can be found here
Main Points From This Episode:
- How demand for gold and other commodities is moving east, and with it the businesses like, storage, refinement, and manufacturing
- Tom Luongo believes the dumbest thing Trump ever did was putting shock and awe sanctions on Iran, as it took away the convenience premium of the dollar and forced Iran to create an infrastructure that incentivised people to use other currencies.
- Why we're watching an incremental process play out away from the U.S. dollar.
