David Kranzler: The Strongest Fundamentals for Gold Since 2008
Palisades Gold Radio, Released on 5/24/23
David discusses how companies often reframe their results to be more "socially acceptable". During the tech bubble the game of earnings management evolved; analyst's influence drove the consensus estimates down and then, when the company beat the estimates, it painted a manipulated picture of their financial standing. David explains the effect that higher rates have on the housing sector; many households are already overstretched and not prepared to pay for house payments when interest rates increase. We are beginning to return to the liar loan phase which helped cause the 2008 housing crisis with Mortgage-Backed Securities. Similarly, auto loans are also being bundled with both prime quality and riskier loans being sold to investors. The financial system is dependent on continued growth of the money supply, which drives it. However, if the increase is pulled back too quickly, the entire system can collapse, which will eventually happen. Lastly, David urges people to ignore mainstream media and do their own research.
