1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: What if I told you the most important number guiding

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: the US economy and monetary policy right now is quietly

3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: rising and no one's talking about it. Now, you've been

4
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 1: told everything's under control, that the economy is strong, and

5
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: the worst is behind us. But what if the numbers

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,760
Speaker 1: they're feeding us are fake and the one number that

7
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: really matters is moving in a direction that could change

8
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: everything for your money, your savings, and your future. Now,

9
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: in this video, I'm going to expose the truth behind

10
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: these so called strong numbers, reveal why this critical metric

11
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: is rising fast, and show you what it means for

12
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,279
Speaker 1: the economy, your wallet, and the global financial system. Now,

13
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: the signals are already flashing red from the bond market

14
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: to gold to silver, but most people are completely missing them.

15
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: Not real quick. My name is Mark Moss. I'm going

16
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: to tech Focus VC investor. For over a decade, I'm

17
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: a partner at a leading tech VC hedge fund. I

18
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: coach business owners on investing, and I'm sharing some of

19
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 1: the same data that we're using to make long term

20
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: decisions with you for free. So let's go all right now,

21
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: the critical number that's right, the critical number that we

22
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: were told is going down but it's going back up.

23
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: You've probably guessed it by now. We're talking about inflation,

24
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: and inflation is creeping back up. Now. They don't want

25
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,960
Speaker 1: you to see this. There's a lot of ambiguity in

26
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: the numbers. But let's dig into this a little bit

27
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: and it's worse than you think. So we can see

28
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: some of the headlines are starting to pop back up.

29
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: This one just popped up a day or two ago.

30
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: That inflation progress, meaning they're trying to get inflation back down.

31
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: The progress is stalled out in October. So the numbers

32
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: just came in and it wasn't good. But December, the

33
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 1: Fed is still expected to cut rates. So as they're

34
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: cutting rates, this is pushing inflation higher. But the problem

35
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 1: is the progress of getting inflation down is bad. We

36
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: just saw an election decided and one of the big

37
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: things was inflation. People can't afford groceries is a big

38
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: hot topic and they want the new administration to get

39
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: this fixed. But how can they if the Fed is

40
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: going to continue to cut rates. Now we can see

41
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: some of the exact data right here. It says here

42
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: that the CPI rose two point six in October. Core

43
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: inflation is one of the main numbers that they're looking at. Here.

44
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: It excludes volatile food and energy prices. Of course, the

45
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: only things that we need. We need food, we need energy.

46
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: Everything else is secondary, right, but it excludes those things.

47
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: And it increased three point three percent over the last

48
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: twelve months after rising three point three percent in September.

49
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: So it's stalled out. It's hitting the same numbers. They're

50
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: not making positive progress on that. Inflation came in a

51
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 1: bit higher than we expected in October. So just like

52
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: publicly traded companies, the FED, the government, the BLS, they

53
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: project where they want these numbers to be on track,

54
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: and when they come in higher, you know, whether they

55
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: missed the numbers, whether the higher low, it's a big problem.

56
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: Now we can see sort of back to this core cpis.

57
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: You can sort of see what this is working with.

58
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: So here's all items. We have food right here. Energy

59
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: went way down supposedly, I guess because my electricity bill

60
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: and my gas bill dropped. Just kidding, they didn't for me,

61
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: probably not you either. And here we have all all

62
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: items minus food. Interests is the core. So here we

63
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: are at three point three percent, and really, to look

64
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: at a long term chart, this is pretty important, right,

65
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: The goal is to get inflation down. Here we were

66
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: in April twenty twenty one at over eight percent, and

67
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: we were trending down like this is pretty good. But

68
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: you can see right here we've been completely stalled out.

69
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: Now this is a problem because, as I said, all

70
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: monetary policy, all this is based at your investment policy,

71
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: all that is based off of this number. Okay, now

72
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 1: where are we starting to see that this may even

73
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: be a bigger problem. So looking at what the inflation

74
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: number came in last month, that's what we call a

75
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: lagging indicator. That's what already happened. But we want to

76
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: know where is it going, and so we look for

77
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: a couple of signs. One of those is the bond market. Now,

78
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: the bond market's telling us something's going on, and we

79
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: can see right now that bonds are moving higher. I'm

80
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: going to break this down for you, but here we

81
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: see that the bond market since September is just cranking higher. Now,

82
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: this is a really big move and a short per time,

83
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: which is why I like to show you the charts

84
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: so you can start to sort of see this. So

85
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: since September, we've gone from three point six percent on

86
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: the ten year US Treasury up to four and a

87
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: half percent, from three point six to four and a half,

88
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 1: almost an entire point move in just about two months,

89
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 1: which is a massive move. Now, why is that happening? Well,

90
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: I saw this. This is sort of what sparked the

91
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: inspiration for this video. This came out on Twitter. Was

92
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: it today or yesterday? Here? And this says that the

93
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 1: fed's goules be the FED has to figure out why

94
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: the ten year is rising, and they need to keep

95
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: an eye on the long term rate. So the FED

96
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: has to figure out why why are bond yields rising? Well,

97
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: what a crazy question to ask. Let me break it

98
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: down for you. Now, as a matter of fact, it's

99
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: not just me that has this secret inside information. This

100
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: is like from investor Pedia right here. Yields and prices.

101
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: So here's how this works, what they are and how

102
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,239
Speaker 1: they work. So every finance major can tell you about

103
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: the seesaw effect of prices and yields except for the Fed.

104
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: They don't know why they're going up. But apparently every

105
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: finance major can tell you this economic indicators and they

106
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 1: move in opposite direction. So price and yield go like this,

107
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: all right, So when prices go up, yields come down,

108
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: and this suggests that investors believe inflation will move lower.

109
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: So when yields go down, they think that inflation will

110
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: go lower. But I just showed you that rates are

111
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: going up, not down, and they're going up in a

112
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: really rapid rate. So what does that mean When prices fall,

113
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 1: yields move higher, they and then investors believe higher inflation.

114
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 1: So we don't have to tell the Fed. They're trying

115
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: to figure out why. Well, supposedly every finance major already

116
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: knows this, and now you know that too, and so

117
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: what this is telling us is that major inflation is coming. Why. Well,

118
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: we're going to get into that in a minute. Here's

119
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: one of my favorite macro analysts, Louke Gramman. You've seen

120
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: him channel. We do interviews together. My references work quite

121
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: a bit. The ten year US treasury yield, which I

122
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: just showed you, is rising because the FED messed up

123
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: by trying to be tough guys on inflation, like Vulker

124
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: when the US government had the debt GDP of Argentina.

125
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: So what he's saying is that the FED messed up

126
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: when they tried to tighten inflation, but they didn't do enough.

127
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 1: The ten year yield is saying there's either going to

128
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: be too much net US Treasury supply or there's going

129
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: to be high inflation. All right, So this is what

130
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: it's telling us. There's going to be high inflation, and

131
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: that's because of the supply that's coming. All right. So

132
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: now that we sort of understand that, we have to

133
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: understand that. Now when you look at it under that light,

134
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: and then you look at the fact that Jerome Powell

135
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: still wants to continue lowering raids, we might have a problem.

136
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, this might be feeding the flames,

137
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: This might be pouring gasoline on the fire. And so

138
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: the Fed wants to still cut rates. Now we can

139
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: see this right here. Powell says the Fed will likely

140
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 1: cut rates cautiously given persistent inflation. So even though we

141
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: have inflation that's not going away, even though we're not

142
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 1: even going anywhere in the right direction to the gold

143
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: that the Fed wants to be in, he still wants

144
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: to cut rates, which will push rates higher, which is

145
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: exactly why the bond yields are screaming this. And we

146
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: have other assets. We'll pull up some indicators in a second,

147
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: a small business owner, are you buried in all types

148
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,840

162
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: use this tool quite a bit to ceme fed watch

163
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: right here, and this basically predicts what they think the

164
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: FED will do at the next meeting. And what we

165
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: can see, there's a sixty percent chance right here, sixty

166
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: percent chance of the FED raising rates at the next meeting.

167
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: So that means most likely this is going to happen,

168
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: all right, So we have this situation where everyone's telling us.

169
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: All the signs are telling us that inflation is coming.

170
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: The FED is basically telling us more cuts are coming,

171
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: the CNEME, FED watch tools telling us more rates are coming.

172
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: And the FED is kind of stuck. I've been talking

173
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: about this now for years. They're stuck if they don't

174
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: lower rates, and even if it were to raise rates,

175
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: then this is a recession on the economy. Now I

176
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: didn't get into this data because it would be too

177
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: long on the video, but we're starting to see that,

178
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: like all the job numbers, the unemployment numbers, they're all

179
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: being revised and it's looking like the economy is stalling

180
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: out pretty bad. If you let me do a video

181
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: on that, let me know in the comments, we can

182
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: break all that down. So we're already teetering on the

183
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: edge of our session. Remember, the Fed's trying to stick

184
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: this soft landing, and so if they raise rates that's guaranteed.

185
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: But if they lower rates, that means more inflation. So

186
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: which do they choose? Well, I believe that they're going

187
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: to choose inflation. There's no way around it. Inflation is coming,

188
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: and this is the gas So besides what the FED

189
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: is going to do, we have even more gas coming.

190
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: So what do we have. We have a potentially really

191
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: strong economy coming. I believe there's a strong economy coming.

192
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: I'm extremely optimistic about this. The new administration coming in

193
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: with the dream Team. We have the new Dodge Office right,

194
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: the Department of Government Efficiency with Elon Musk and Vivic.

195
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: We have all kinds of new policies coming into place,

196
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: and I believe these things could unleash the American economy.

197
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: We have a plan to make the government efficient, we

198
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: have a plan to repeal regulations. We have government to

199
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: unleash the energy in the economy. And I believe this

200
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: could really ignite the economy. I can already see it

201
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: in a week or two just from people that I've

202
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: been talking to. The economy seems to be moving. The

203
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 1: thing is when the economy gets booming, which is great

204
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: for us, that means that we're making more money and

205
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: we're spending more money, which means more consumer spending, which

206
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: means as we spend more and make more, that means yes,

207
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: more inflation. All right, So we have to understand how

208
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: this works. Now. We can see this already in some

209
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: of the charts. So, for example, look what gold has

210
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: been doing. Gold is telling us the same thing the

211
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: bond market is telling us. From January of this year,

212
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: gold is up as high as two point eight twenty

213
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 1: eight hundred dollars right here, and it's down just a

214
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: little bit. But of course assets go up and down.

215
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: There's no straight line here, and so we've been anywhere

216
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: from twenty five percent up to thirty eight percent return

217
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: on the year. I mean, imagine gold doing thirty eight

218
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: percent in a single year. It's obviously telling us something

219
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: is going to happen. Now we can see that Experts

220
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: are saying that in October gold searched past twenty seven

221
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: hundred Like I said, about almost twenty eight hundred per ounce.

222
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 1: Experts link this rally to inflation duh, right, to inflation concerns,

223
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: aggressive central bank buying, and rising global tension. So I've

224
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: talked about this all the time. The world's breaking apart,

225
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: nations aren't trusting each other, central banks are buying it,

226
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 1: but inflation concerns. The precious metals rise signals deeper worries

227
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: about inflation, even after two years of FED rate hikes,

228
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: and so gold is telling us that inflation is coming.

229
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: We can see silver is telling us the exact same thing.

230
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: Here we have Silver's is a little bit more volatile,

231
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: so it's telling us even more. Since January of this year,

232
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: we can see that silver is up fifty five has

233
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: been up as high as fifty five percent. It's right

234
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: now about thirty five percent up on the year at

235
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: thirty US dollars per ounce. And then one of my

236
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: favorite inflation indicators as well is bitcoin. It's shown us

237
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: the same thing year to date, bitcoins up one hundred

238
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: and twenty percent. They're all telling us the exact same thing,

239
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: and that is massive amounts of inflation coming. Okay, so

240
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: is this all bad news or is there some good news? Like,

241
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: what are we supposed to do about this? Well, let

242
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 1: me tell you it's going to be bad for most

243
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: people who aren't paying attention to this, but it can

244
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: be good. We can use this to our advantage. Let

245
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: me break that down. Before I break that down, I

246
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: just want to tell you real quick about a sponsor

247
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: for today's video, and that is US Gold Mining. Now

248
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,359
Speaker 1: they're listed on the Nasdaq with the ticker symbol USGO.

249
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: And while gold is ripping it looks like the gold

250
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: producers like USGO, they're about to finally start catching up. Now.

251
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: US gold Mining owns a project that has estimated mineral

252
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 1: resources of six point five million ounces of gold resources

253
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: equivalent to the indicated category and an additional four point

254
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: two million in the inferred category, and its marketcap is

255
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: currently about one hundred and eight million USD, which means

256
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 1: that US Gold Mining is trading at about forty percent

257
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: below it's all time high. But with the economy moving higher,

258
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: stopping and pushing inflation back higher again, gold is moving

259
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: back up. Another big catalyst for USGO is also the

260
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: greatest source of potential appreciation and shareholder value, and it

261
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: comes from the new Trump administration and it's the attitude

262
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: towards the beautiful state of Alaska, where USGO is now.

263
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: Trump said that he would ensure Alaska received more money

264
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: from defense investments. In addition, he said that there would

265
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: be more mining. He said, quote during my second term,

266
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: We're going to continue to fight for Alaska like never before.

267
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: We'll ensure that the gas Line project gets built to

268
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 1: provide affordable energy to Alaska and allies all over the world. Now,

269
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: the CEO of us Gold Mining Tim Smith. He came

270
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: from Neumont now Newmont if you've heard of it. It's

271
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: one hundred year old gold producer, the largest gold mining

272
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: company in the world. And before Neumont, he worked for

273
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 1: Gold Corp, one of Canada's biggest gold producers. And before

274
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: joining Gold Corp, he worked for Cabinet Gold Corporation. And

275
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: while he was there he helped discover the coffee deposit

276
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: in the Yukon. He advanced the resources until Gold Corp

277
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: required it for about five hundred and twenty million Canadian

278
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: It was one of the most legendary buyouts of the

279
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: past decade. And so his experience advancing a project is

280
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: what's critical here. Now, what have you been exposed to?

281
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: These circumstances all coming together at the same time, the

282
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: incoming administration is pro mining in Alaska like never before.

283
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: US gold Mining owns a gold copper silver project where

284
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: the prior owner had a market cap of about one

285
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five million at when gold prices were

286
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: much lower, and with the same project right now, the

287
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: same assets, USGO has a market cap of only one

288
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: hundred and eight million now US gold Mining again Nasdaq.

289
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: USGO is down by about forty percent from its all

290
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: time high, So you might want to check it out,

291
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: add it to your list of ones that you want

292
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: to just take a look at. All. Right, now, what

293
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: are we going to do about this? Like I said,

294
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: for people that aren't paying attention, this could be really bad.

295
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: Inflation steals you're purchasing power. But we can use it

296
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: to our advantage. And I don't want to sound callous,

297
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: but we have no other choice. Can't beat them, we

298
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: have to join them. Okay, So what are we gonna do?

299
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: Inflation is returning and it's going to continue through the

300
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: rest of the decade. There's a lot of reasons. I've

301
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: made a bunch of videos about this, but I believe

302
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: it's returning. So I believe the FED is fueling this

303
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: fire and will continue to do so. Yes, Unfortunately the

304
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: new administration, they're not really going to help it. I

305
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: think it's going to continue going on again. We can

306
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: use this to our advantage. We can look at things

307
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: in life as problems. We can look at them as

308
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: solutions to the problems. Right, we can look at them.

309
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: Things are happening to us or they happen for us. Again,

310
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: not to be callous, for people that are not paying attention.

311
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: But this is what it is. Now, how do we

312
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: do that? One we can use long term debt. I

313
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: talk about this in America we have the benefit of

314
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: having like thirty or mortgage was amazing, But all over

315
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: the world we have the ability to borrow at low

316
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: rates and lock in long term debt. So that's one

317
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: way we can add catalyst to that, because then the

318
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: inflation destroys that debt, which is why the government wants

319
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: the inflation. Also, we can be hedged with assets, so

320
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: assets that are soive to inflation gold, bitcoin, silver, I

321
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: just showed you three of those. Real estate is also

322
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: another one. So we want to buy assets, scarce assets,

323
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: energy intensive assets that are going to go up with inflation.

324
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: We don't want to be holding cash. And then if

325
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: you want to know even more assets you should buy.

326
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: Then the next place i'd look is what I call

327
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: the investing black hole. And if you want to know

328
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: what the investing black hole is, then you might want

329
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: to watch this video right here. All right, that's what

330
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: I got. I hope you like the video. To your success,

331
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: I'm out
