In his latest commentary from Euro Pacific Capital, Peter Schiff delves into the repercussions of the political and economic drama playing out in Greece.

Peter asks the ultimate question that everybody seems to be ignoring – How can analysts expect the United States to experience better GDP growth in 2015 when they also expect the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates and refrain from further stimulus?

Last fall, SchiffGold Precious Metals Specialist Dickson Buchanan attended the Gold Standard Institute’s conference in New York City.

“The greatest problem facing the world today is monetary,” began The Gold Standard Institute’s founder Keith Weiner in his opening remarks at the New York City conference.

In his first Schiff Report video of the year, Peter Schiff explains the Swiss news that rattled the foreign exchange markets this week. Peter had predicted that Switzerland would eventually be forced to drop its euro peg, just as he’s been warning that countries like China will be forced to abandon their ties to a weakening US dollar. If investors don’t want to experience even worse losses than Europeans were hit with this week, they need to start preparing for a dollar crisis. Gold has performed very well this year, even while the US dollar and stock market moved higher, which Peter sees as an indicator that a new bull trend has started in precious metals.
