What the fed has to do is to sacrifice the currency to avoid a 1930s-style depression. They're going to almost explicitly say, "We're going to let the dollar fall as far as it has to fall. We've got to protect jobs, et cetera, et cetera. We can't let the economy just go completely bust. So, if we have to have eight, nine, or 10% inflation forever, we'll just have to accept that as the least bad in...

If you look at the magnitude of the asset bubble that’s been inflating, the everything bubble, and then posit that any recession or pullback is going to be on the same order of magnitude as the bubble, this could get really bad. We could get into a really horrific drawdown in the markets. But even worse for everyday people. Our guest this week is Mark Jeftovic. Join your host Dennis Tubbergen as h...

While inflation of the current magnitude hasn’t been seen since the late 1970s and early 1980s, we’re not likely to see the type of response from the Fed, vis-à-vis Volker raising interest rates to 20%. This week’s guest on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Simon Popple, who points out that governments around the world have taken on tremendous amounts of debt with interest rates at 1 percent...
2022-06-05 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Dr. Robert McHugh 05.06.2022 43:56
We're in a hyperinflation. The Fed is overreacting. Supply is not increasing. The government’s economic policies are not aimed at increasing supplies. Instead, their goal is to tame inflation by destroying wealth and thereby dampening demand. Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is technical analyst, Dr. Robert McHugh. Your host Dennis Tubbergen talks with Dr. McHugh about w...

We’re at the top of a 30-year Supercycle in the markets; eerily reminiscent of the roaring 1920s. Is a deflationary period like that of the 1930s imminent?

Tune in to get Murray’s forecast for the markets and the state of social mood and how that affects the markets. Murra...

2022-05-15 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Harry Dent 15.05.2022 43:42
“The government should quit monkeying with the economy like they're God; they don't understand it. They don't even understand the demographics behind it, and the productivity behind it, and what causes it to go up and down. They just think interest rates are the biggest driver, which shows how clueless they are”. That quote is directly from our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates rad...

“The U.S. made a disastrous decision by effectively weaponizing the dollar and demonetizing the dollar in Russia, that was completely unnecessary.

2022-04-17 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Michael Pento 17.04.2022 43:50
Inflation is much higher than the government reports it. CPI is at 8.5%, producer prices up 11.2% year-over-year, import prices up 12.5% year-over-year, and if you look at reality, rents, the cost of buying a new house, the cost of beef, the cost of energy, year-over-year, they're up closer to 20%. That's the reality. Michael Pento joins your host Dennis Tubbergen on this week’s Retirement Lifesty...

Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Forbes columnist, Dr. A Gary Shilling. In his conversation with your host Dennis Tubbergen, he said, “We are going to see a lot more weakness in housing. It's already started.

2022-03-06 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ John Rubino 06.03.2022 44:17
We're in the danger zone. The magic number for the 10-year treasury yield that we can't go beyond is probably a little bit lower than it was in 2018. We can't go much beyond that without the economy just tanking. And we are really not that far from that. Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Mr. John Rubino. He and your host, Dennis Tubergen, talk about the impact of the R...
2022-02-27 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Simon Popple 27.02.2022 43:54

2022-02-20 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Karl Denninger 20.02.2022 44:03
Let's say your car is nearly out of gas. You pull in the gas station. There's no price on the pump. You put the nozzle in, and you put the gas in the car, and then after you put the gas in the car, the attendant asks who your car insurance company is. Are you State Farm, Progressive, Geico, Allstate, whatever? And after you tell them that, then they tell you how much the gas costs. That’s how our...
2022-02-06 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Dr. Robert McHugh 06.02.2022 43:53

This week’s guest here on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio expert analyst, Dr. Robert McHugh. Listen as your host, Dennis Tubbergen, talks with Dr. McHugh about...
2022-01-30 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ John Williams 30.01.2022 44:03
Inflation is the worst it’s been since the early 1980s. The official CPI is reflecting nearly 7% at last reporting. But if you’re like most people, it feels worse? Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates is John Williams who tells your host, Dennis Tubbergen how the government has been manipulating the CPI since the early 1980s to control the government's liabilities, particularly to...
2022-01-23 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Murray Gunn 23.01.2022 44:33
No matter what they say, the Federal Reserve is actually pleased to see consumer price inflation so high because it's one way of deflating the debt. Chances of success are, however, doubtful, according to this week’s guest, Murray Gunn, as bond markets are already demanding higher interest rates. Join your host Dennis Tubbergen on today’s episode of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio for an insi...
2022-01-16 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Dr. Charles Nenner 16.01.2022 43:54

2022-01-09 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Harry Dent 09.01.2022 43:54
Could we be looking at the peak in the markets? Many have been forecasting a market crash for years that the Fed has so far been able to forestall through money printing.

2021-12-19 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Michael Pento 19.12.2021 43:59
Inflation is now running at three and a half times higher than the Fed’s target rate of 2 percent.
