Mark discusses gold's lack of reaction to current global risks. The metals should have moved higher in response to inflation. Supposedly, they are anticipating rate hikes but a large move seems unlikely as that would crash the markets. Inflation is not transitory and we're just seeing the start of it.

He expects weakness in the short term for gold as Fed takes some sort of action. Generally, within a short period afterward, we will see gold break to the upside.

We have a multitude of risks and globally these risks have never been higher. This is due to the huge levels of debt and while deflation is possible central banks appear reluctant to take that path. Inflation will likely remain in assets like the vulnerable bond and real estate markets.

The debt bubble is absolutely massive when you factor in all the various forms of debt today. They are continuing to manage to kick the can down the road. However, nearly everyone today is financially impaired.

Sentiment for gold seems to be slowly improving but crypto has taken some of the luster away from the metals. We're seeing the direct risks of government intervention in Canada of all places. In the future, we are likely to see more direct encroachment into the lives of citizens. The idea of a cashless society appears to carry significant risks for anyone with differing views. The pandemic has shown just how little the governments of the world care about small business owners. Taking some physical possession of gold or silver makes sense along with storing some outside of your home country. Gold remains the premiere safe-haven asset in a world of government dictates. Don't have too much money in banks just keep what you need for day-to-day use.

He remains steadfast that silver should be priced much higher today. However, you should carefully consider why you own metals. Land is still relatively cheap in many places and self-sufficiency may be key in the future. Consider building communities of people with skills and like-minded goals.
