Since When Does Higher Inflation Help the Economy? (Video)

In this clip from yesterday’s Kudlow Report on CNBC, Peter Schiff shares his interpretation of the Federal Reserve’s latest statement, arguing that the next move the Fed will make is to increase its quantitative easing. Larry Kudlow agrees with Peter that the Fed has no real exit strategy and implies that higher inflation targets are not going to help the economy. When the financial media starts to agree with Peter, you know it’s time to buy physical gold and silver!

“You go back to the Fed statement – the Fed doesn’t mention taper. It says ‘adjust monetary policy.’ Adjustment doesn’t imply a direction. I think what the Fed is getting ready to do is increase the amount of QE, not diminish it.”

Gold’s Long-Term Risk Management Value

The World Gold Council just released Volume 4 of its Gold Investor. The latest research from the WGC addresses misunderstandings about gold’s value as a long-term hedge against inflation and protector of purchasing power.

“The merits of gold as an investment receives a lot of attention. Investors and market commentators fervently debate whether it could or should be used to protect against inflation, to hedge US dollar exposure, or even tail risk events. And while there is enough literature for and against gold’s roles in a portfolio, or what measures should be used to assess its effectiveness, they are quite often inadequately defined.

Misunderstandings about gold’s properties have led to multiple articles contesting gold’s role as an inflation hedge, currency hedge, and tail risk hedge, among others. We contend that by properly defining these functions and using appropriate measures, gold’s purchasing power preservation qualities and risk management characteristics become apparent. While gold’s ability to hedge inflation or protect against a very specific kind of risk could be replicated by including securities constructed specifically with that objective, these can often be costly and add an additional set of risks, such as credit or counterparty risk exposure.

Gold is a well rounded, cost effective strategic asset, which held even in a modest amounts (typically 2%-10% of a portfolio) can help investors reduce risk without sacrificing long term returns.”

QE Props Up Wall Street & Destroys Main Street (Video)

Yesterday, Arise Xchange interviewed Peter Schiff about the implications of the Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing and the possibility of the stimulus being reduced in the near future. Peter emphasized that investors shouldn’t be distracted by short-term asset bubbles – these are all going to collapse when the money printing stops.

“When they stop doing the QE, we’re going to realize how much worse the problems are than they were in 2008… The Fed doesn’t want us to feel the pain that unfortunately is going to come with solving our problems. They want to numb us up with more QE. So they’re going to keep on doing it until we have a complete economic catastrophe.”

Doug Casey & Jim Rogers: Gold vs Fiat Money (Audio)

Doug Casey and Jim Rogers were recently interviewed on Wall Street for Main Street by Jason Burack. During their hour-long discussion, Doug and Jim delve into the age-old problem of fiat money and government debt, stressing the importance of competing currencies as tools to avoid the inflation created by government money printing. While both are skeptical of a gold backed currency replacing the dollar anytime soon, average investors can still protect themselves from an international currency war by buying physical gold and silver. Both Doug and Jim note that they have no intention of selling their gold in the near future.

Economy That Lives by QE, Dies by QE (Video)

Peter Schiff appeared on BNN’s The Street to talk about the endless quantitative easing that is destroying the US economy. Contrary to popular opinion, Peter maintains that the Fed has no exit strategy and the stimulus will continue until a major crisis erupts. In the meantime, investors should avoid the asset bubbles that all this easy money creates.

“The Fed’s actually going to do the opposite of tapering – they’re going to up the dosage [of QE]. It’s going to end when there’s a currency crisis. When the dollar collapses and then that morphs into a sovereign debt crisis – that’s going to force the Fed’s hand. But until then, it’s just going to pretend there’s an exit…”
