Let’s keep learning and growing together. https://quantlabs.substack.com/ The article outlines a series of concerns and trends the financial world is currently facing, from a banking system that seems to favor the wealthy, to fears surrounding inflation and currency debasement. Particularly spotlighted is the massive influence of the Federal Reserve in the US and the alarming rate at which the US dollar is debasing in purchasing power. Brian points out the irony that the best performing currency out of the major ones is the Russian ruble—the one that has been sanctioned the most. Diving further, Brian evaluates two major players in the investment landscape: gold and Bitcoin. He reports that people are starting to load up on gold and silver, driving prices skyward. Bitcoin, too, is experiencing a spike, and a halving is expected in the near future—a factor that could elongate the time to mine the remaining 1.5 million. However, the podcast is not just about the pros of these assets. Reflecting on instances where gold was banned, Brian urges listeners to consider the potential risks and drawbacks of investing in these seemingly invincible assets. As countries lean towards storing gold, Brian questions whether the cost of storage and insurance make gold a truly worthwhile investment. Finally, Brian leaves listeners with sobering facts about the high stakes of today's financial landscape, urging them to educate themselves about the true nature of their investments.
