Did you know inflation is on purpose? 

Government people would never admit this out loud, but inflation is a tax. They need inflation in order to maintain the borrow and spend system they've set up. 

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains the inflation tax, how it is levied, and why. 

Well, what a week for the gold market! The monetary metal gained $30 on Thursday to close at $1,900 for the first time since last spring. As of this Friday recording, gold prices are coming in at $1,899 per ounce -- good for a weekly gain of 1.8%.

Has the weaponization of the dollar put it in danger?

The short answer is yes.

De-dollarization sounds like a wild conspiracy theory, but it is happening. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains what's driving de-dollarization, the possible ramifications, and why gold is a big part of the equation.

The national debt has spiraled to nearly $34.6 trillion. It's easy to point out that this is the problem. But what are we going to do about it? Answering that question isn't so simple.

But as host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, there is a blueprint we could follow to address the spending and the debt. Thomas Jefferson gave it to us. The question is whether anybody in Washington D.C. has the courage to implement it.

In this episode, Mike also talks about an unusual dynamic in the recent gold and silver rally.

First-time guest, Jeffrey Christian of the CPM Group talks about who’s been buying gold, and who hasn’t been – at least not compared to levels of a few years ago, tells us why they’ve moved up their price forecasts for gold and silver a couple of years, and also answers the question about whether or not he believes there is widespread manipulation in the precious metals markets. | Check Gold and Silver Prices Here: https://www.moneymetals.com/precious-metals-charts

Industrial demand for silver is at record levels. Can mine production keep up?

As Money Metals' Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey explains, that's easier said than done.

He also shares some interesting news from Russia that could drive even more silver demand in the future.

Greg Weldon of Weldon Financial, discusses a range of topics, including how he sees a big shift occurring in global geopolitics where more and more countries around the world are telling the U.S. to mind its own business -- and how U.S. elitism is driving more and more countries to team up with BRICS countries. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Gold has been selling off with increasing worries that price inflation isn't quite under control and the Federal Reserve might have to slow the pace of monetary easing.

Is this a mistake? Or should we follow the crowd?

Money Metals' Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey thinks it is, and in this episode, he explains why. He also talks about a fundamental economic principle that we all need to reckon with - scarcity.

Gold has had a nice run over the last few months and it's garnered a lot of attention. Silver has kind of gotten lost in the shadow of gold's shine. But as host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, people should be paying attention to silver. It has outperformed gold in this gold bull market and there are plenty of reasons to believe the silver bull has a lot of leg left.

Precious metals markets are extending their losing streak as the U.S. dollar pushes higher. The Dollar Index rose for a fifth straight week through Thursday's close. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

We'd be better off with sound money. But how do we get there?

It's a political question, and unless they are well-funded, most people feel pretty powerless when it comes to making change through the political process. 

Maybe that's because we need a better approach.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek memo, host Mike Maharrey presents an alternative - a bottom-up approach that avoids Washington D.C. He presents this strategy in the context of policy to promote sound money.

Mike also discusses the recent Fed meeting.

The Federal Reserve is the engine that powers one of the biggest most powerful governments in history. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains how and why the Fed enables an ever-growing federal government. Along the way, he explains quantitative easing, debt monetization, and the real problem with the national debt.

Gold and silver bulls attempted to start a rally this week, but prices were capped by a strengthening U.S. Dollar Index.

The buck has advanced strongly against foreign currencies over the past month. Currency traders are encouraged by the Federal Reserve’s apparent plans to taper asset purchases and begin raising interest rates way out in 2023. Dollar buyers also seem convinced that the recent inflation spike is transitory.

There's been a lot of talk about the demise of the dollar.

Has the treat of de-dollarization been greatly exaggerated? Or is the greenback's role as the global reserve currency threatened?

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey takes a hard look at the dollar's status in the context of the recent BRICS summit. He argues that while it doesn't look like the dollar will go down any time soon, it's a little early to breathe a sigh of relief.

The top trends forecaster - Gerald Celente - shares his thoughts on why protests in many nations throughout the globe are a driver in central banks continual printing of a massive amount of money.

Gold has basked in the spotlight in recent months, and while silver is up by roughly the same amount in percentage terms this year, most investors feel it has underperformed. But as host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Midweek Memo, technical analysis reveals an extremely bullish pattern emerging in the silver market. Coupled with strong fundamentals, Mike argues there's an extremely strong upside case for silver.

In this episode, he also discusses a shift in silver demand from the West to the East, similar to a pattern we've seen in gold. 

Under the new leadership of House Speaker Mike Johnson, Congress passed a stopgap funding bill on Tuesday to once again avert a government shutdown. It was quickly approved by the Senate on Wednesday, then signed into law by President Joe Biden.

The mainstream financial media seems to have a particular disdain for gold. Why is that?

In this episode of Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey gives some examples of mainstream folks dumping on gold and offers some theories as to why they always seem to think it's time to sell the yellow metal - no matter what.

He also offers a little food for thought for people who think that just because there hasn't been a financial or economic crisis yet there won't be one.

As Congress finally came to an agreement on Thursday to temporarily lift the debt ceiling, investors breathed a sigh of relief.

You don't know what you don't know.

And that can be a big problem if you're an investor or a central planner.

In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey talks about the "knowledge problem" and explains why it, along with hubris, is the Achilles heel of central planning.

Gold and silver are often disparaged as "useless" or "barbarous relics" by investors and economists. But as Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals'Midweek Memo, gold and silver are real money. He argues that a return to sound money would help reign in out of control government spending and constant currency depreciation, and he offers some strategies to move in that direction. 

All asset classes are reflecting uncertainty ahead of the election. Investors seem to be as undecided as voters in the swing states.  Perhaps the next major moves in metals and stocks – up or down – will have to wait until after November 3rd to be determined.
