Podcast Interview with Gold Silver Pros Robert Kientz on Gold, Silver, Miners and Markets

I met with Doug Eberhardt, owner of Illusions of Wealth and Buy Gold and Silver Safely, to discuss his thoughts on the following topics:

• Why the national debt math does not add up.
• Consumer spending trends (are they up or down, and what does that mean).
• How the recent Fed announcement on reducing the number of interest rate hikes, and how *potentially* moving back into an easing stance in coming years may affect the markets.
• The advantages and disadvantages of leveraged ETFs, who may want to trade them, and why.
• Gold’s role in preserving wealth and as an inflation hedge Where the gold price is heading.
• How Basel III regulations will affect the gold price and how countries will hold it.
• Why miners have more upside in the future (leverage to commodity price) than just owning the metal outright.
• We discuss a few miners that both he and I like.
• John Exter’s Inverse Pyramid and where gold, silver, stocks, bonds, and derivatives all sit within that framework.
• We discuss what a recession may have in store for those investments, particularly the ones on top.
