    This Week In Doom Ep. 18: Something For Everyone PREVIEW

    This Week In Doom Ep. 18: Something For Everyone PREVIEW

    Join Doomberg and I as we discuss several topics sure to stir even the most languid of blood including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the changing nature of warfare with the rise of drone technology, and the concept of peak cheap oil. Doomberg’s argument that peak cheap oil is a fallacy and that human ingenuity will always find ways to extract and produce more hydrocarbons has garnered plenty of attention (and pushback) in recent weeks so here’s another chance to understand why and to hear about the backlash they received for their views on the matter. Finally, just when you think we’ve run out of controversial subjects, the conversation turns to an upcoming piece on the assault on climate denialism and the labeling of certain views as hate speech…

    The Grant Williams Podcast: Shifts Happen - Episode Seven FULL EPISODE

    The Grant Williams Podcast: Shifts Happen - Episode Seven FULL EPISODE

    A long-overdue episode seven of Shifts Happen sees Luke Gromen return to discuss the pace at which three things are happening: the acceleration of the US fiscal crisis and debt spiral, the Fed’s policy mistake of not letting inflation run hot enough, and the de-dollarization of global oil markets.
    Luke explains that China needs to de-dollarize its oil imports and commodity imports to avoid a currency crisis, which is driving the de-dollarization of global oil markets and also highlights the importance of gold in this process, as China needs gold to work in order to improve its standards of living and avoid a crisis.
    Luke believes gold will continue to rise in price, and that the pace of events is accelerating towards a US fiscal crisis. He explains the US is facing a fiscal crisis due to its high debt and deficits, and the lack of price-sensitive buyers for its treasuries and that the Fed’s choice is not inflation or deflation, but rather how it wants to lose the long end of the yield curve
    Plenty of food for thought here with Luke on fine form.

    The Grant Williams Podcast Ep. 74 - Julian Brigden 2024

    The Grant Williams Podcast Ep. 74 - Julian Brigden 2024

    As we ease our way into 2024, I’m delighted to welcome back my great mate, Julian Brigden to the podcast. Julian is the co-founder of independent research firm MI2 Partners and, as he’s demonsrated in previous conversations, a hugely insightful and incredibly entertaining guest!
    This time out, he and I discuss, amongst other things, the Goldilocks narrative, the potential risks in the current market environment, the performance of Tesla stock, the Chinese stock market, and the outlook for gold. Julian expresses his skepticism around threading the Goldilocks needle and highlights the historical challenges of achieving a soft landing in the US economy.
    He also shares his concerns about the future of Tesla and the Chinese stock market and offers some thoughts on gold, which he believes is in a structural bull market, but… Here we go…

    The End Game Ep. 47 - The Two Mikes PREVIEW

    The End Game Ep. 47 - The Two Mikes PREVIEW

    Returning to The End Game as we begin the year with a bang are the brains behind Simplify, The Two Mikes, Green & Taylor who take turns picking apart just about ever facet of the financial and political spectrum.
    From the growth of passive investing and its potential impact on the market to the importance of understanding the holdings and flows of passive funds, The Two Mikes hold court in typically forthright fashion.
    Also under the microscope are the behavior of stocks like Tesla and Apple, and how fundamental valuations will eventually come into play. The conversation then shifts to the influence of politics on the market, with a focus on the actions of the Treasury and the potential impact of the upcoming election.
    Finally, we discuss the role of the Federal Reserve and its recent policies, somehow managing to trigger just about every group along the way.

    The Grant Williams Podcast: Peter Zeihan - FULL EPISODE

    The Grant Williams Podcast: Peter Zeihan - FULL EPISODE

    My guest in this edition of The Grant Williams Podcast is a man who finds both himself and his field of expertise at the very heart of recent events in Ukraine, geopolitical strategist and author, Peter Zeihan.

    Peter’s books, The Absent Superpower, The Accidental Superpower and Disunited Nations have been incredibly helpful to me in understanding the strengths and weaknesses of not just the global geopolitical landscape as a whole, but also the individual countries involved in the escalating tensions.

    His upcoming book The End Of The World Is Just The Beginning is set to be an absolutely invaluable addition to his excellent work.

    In what is an intensely though-provoking and painfully realistic assessment of the war in Ukraine, Peter pulls no punches in laying out where we currently stand, why we are where we are, and the many painful roads the world may well travel from here in the weeks and months to come.

    This conversation isn’t for the faint of heart, but Peter’s understanding of the range of outcomes available to us is incredibly valuable at what is shaping up to be a pivotal time for mankind in so many ways.

    Every episode of the Grant Williams podcast, including The End Game, Super Terrific Happy Hour, The Narrative Game and the brand new series This Week In Doom, featuring my co-host, Doomberg, is available to Copper and Silver Tier subscribers at my website www.grant-williams.com.

    The Grant Williams Podcast Ep. 73 - Michael Oliver 2023

    The Grant Williams Podcast Ep. 73 - Michael Oliver 2023

    Joining me for the final episode of The Grant Williams Podcast in 2023 is returning guest, Michael Oliver, the brains behind Momentum Structural Analysis (MSA) – one of the most original and, in my experience, accurate forecasters of asset prices right across the spectrum.
    In a hugely enjoyable conversation, we discuss the current state of the markets and what to expect in 2024. Michael explains his unique approach to technical analysis, which focuses on momentum rather than price, and emphasizes the importance of looking at long-term trend structures and how they can provide a different perspective on market patterns.
    Also under the microscope are the potential impact of the upcoming US elections and the increasing division in the country. Michael explains why he believes that there is no outcome of the election that will be peaceful and that this could have significant implications for the markets.
    Lastly, he also highlights the potential for a rally in gold and commodity-related stocks. Whichever way you cut it, Michael’s analysis suggests that investors should be cautious in the face of potential market volatility in the coming year.

Zeihan

Peter Zeihan must be living in an alt universe.
His description of the Ukraine disaster sounds straight out of the Biden/ Nuland approved narrative briefing guide for gullible or worse journalists.

Smart guy for sure but spinning some tall tales but of course never mentioning the color revolution sponsored by his buddies that feed him information. He also failed to mention at all the bushie/obama push to ram NATO right up his (vlad) Pooter.

Note to Peter:
You and yours have left Russia no choice with your NATO ambitions.
There will be a land bridge to the warm water ports.
The economy is not in collapse in Russia.
And you will fail in your never ending war fever leaving Ukraine a charnel house with no men left behind.
The EU will be in shambles when your kind are through.

Waiting for the Inevitable ,

Grant and Luke

“Brilliant” is overused, but not in this case—Gromen is perhaps the finest macro analyst now writing, and Williams the finest macro interviewer currently broadcasting.

Educational and eye-opening

This podcast is a true macro gem. Latest episode with Luke Gromen is a combination of two sharped minds providing their insights and perspectives of what is happening and coming. I couldn’t recommended enough
