And Now...The Rest of the (Inflation) Story!

If you followed the headlines, you know that the June CPI report was even cooler than expected. This generated optimism that maybe, just maybe, the Fed is finally getting inflation under control. But there's more to the story. In this episode of the Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey tells you the rest of the story, revealing that despite falling CPI, inflation is alive and well. On top of that, the good CPI news may green-light even more inflation. Mike also points out a very interesting trend in the gold market. Gold is up during Asian trading sessions through the first half of the year, even as the yellow metal sold off during North American sessions. What is this telling us?

Reality Check!

The perception is that gold has tanked through the first half of the year. In fact, the yellow metal isn't down nearly as much as you probably think. The perception is that the new Federal Reserve chairman will keep monetary policy tight to fight inflation. In fact, the Debt Black Hole may have something else to say about that. In this week's Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey provides a reality check, showing that gold's correction isn't nearly as steep as you might think and throwing cold water on the notion that Kevin Warsh will maintain a higher interest rate environment and slay inflation.

Want Liberty? Get Gold!

The political class wants you to hate gold. That's why politicians and their enablers in the mainstream media and academia constantly badmouth it. But have you noticed that government people actually love gold? You don't need to look any further than the recent central bank gold-buying spree to make this case. So, why does the political class want to have gold, but it doesn't want you to have gold? Control. As host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, you are harder to control when you have sound money. In other words, gold supports liberty. Mike explains exactly how sound money undergirds freedom and, along the way, highlights government efforts around the world to get more gold to increase their power.

Warsh Takes the Reins at the Fed: What's Next?

There's a new boss over at the Federal Reserve. Is he going to be any different than the old boss? Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey delved into that question this week. He notes that Warsh certainly sounds different. But he's stepping into the same situation that Jerome Powell left. Mike explains why that will likely limit Warsh's options, meaning the old new boss may end up acting just like the old boss when it's all said and done. Mike also highlights the ever-growing Debt Black hole by breaking down the May federal budget deficit numbers.

Coming up in a moment, we will be joined by author and precious metals analyst Przemysław Radomski.

Follow the Recipe!

We've seen wild swings in the markets based on the latest headlines. How do we cut through the noise and make good investment decisions? In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains that you need a good recipe. A plan. A process. But to formulate a plan, you need good data. That's tricky when the primary source of data is the government. Mike breaks down the inflation of the pandemic era using a new AI tool to reveal just how sketchy that government data is. This underscores the fact that when we have a realistic view of the economy, all roads lead to gold and silver.
