Peter Schiff appeared on RT Boom Bust last week and reiterated he thinks we have entered a bear market. In fact, what we’re seeing now is a deflating bubble. 

For centuries, gold jewelry was not only something beautiful to wear, it was also a store of wealth and value. But the 14-karat gold jewelry found in your local store isn’t the best option for investment.

Earlier this month, Peter Schiff wondered out loud if the twin deficits of government budget and trade could spark an October surprise. The month isn’t over yet, but it certainly hasn’t been a good one for stock markets. The Dow is down 3.8% in October. And it’s the best performing of the stock indexes. The […]

The US federal government posted the largest budget deficit since 2012 in fiscal 2018.  Uncle Sam ended 2018 $779 billion in the red, adding to the ballooning national debt.

There are plenty of signs a major economic downturn could be lurking right around the corner, including stock market weakness. And […]

A lot of seemingly positive economic data came out last week, but in his most recent podcast, Peter Schiff said it is just feeding into a delusional economic narrative that ignores the most fundamental storyline – debt. Everybody is talking about a new era of prosperity, but Peter said it’s a phony prosperity and it […]

Not everybody in the mainstream is bullish on the dollar and expecting rate hikes as far as the eye can see. In fact, the global head of commodities at TD securities sounds a little like Peter Schiff. In his podcast last week, Peter said that the recent dollar strength is nothing more than upside correction […]

In his most recent podcast, Peter Schiff hit a number of subjects including oil prices, bond prices, Bitcoin, the dollar and tariffs.
