“The Fed playing God with the US economy and trying things they weren’t sure would work,” says Chris Whalen, chairman of Whelan Global Advisors. In today’s interview with Daniela Cambone, Whalen criticizes the Fed’s unconventional monetary policies—particularly the low interest rates and quantitative easing implemented during COVID. Now, the Fed is reversing some of that policy, shrinking its balance sheet and reducing liquidity in the system. Chris warns that the Fed is again experimenting with high-stakes economic levers, creating uncertainty in money markets and increasing the potential for stress in banks and the financial system.
“We’re seeing 100% loss on those [commercial real estate (CRE) and apartment building] loans when they default,” he adds.
As for protecting investors, he stresses caution and opportunism: “Look for stability and income—treasuries, preferred stocks, reliable dividend payers. Gold must be a core part of your holdings.”

Don’t Believe this impending doom. This is how the banks are doing today: “Analysts report that the U.S. banking sector outlook is stable for 2025, buoyed by solid funding, ample liquidity, and strong capital bases[dbrs.morningstar +1]. Most banks are operating in a more favorable environment compared to previous years, with net incomes expected to improve thanks to revenue growth and steady expense management”
He’s talking socialism, I’m seeing fascism
OLD GUY. lol. same story
Oh I think the feds always know what they are doing… 😉
Danielle, Dont become the Maury Povich of inestment podcasts. This is complete nonsense, not every cracpot with a theory should get your ear.
So progressives attempting to increase the private tenancy occupancy rate by making homes affordable = driving building landlords out of the market. Ok! sure Chris!
Sounds like your very anti Trump.
In regard to comments that people may be living beyond their means in areas like NYC and should probably move. As a socialist I believe the morally appropriate thing to do is to stop gentrification of their neighborhoods and leave them in peace. Besides these people in these neighborhoods are a necessary part of the ecosystem why should they be banished, that’s nonsensical. Another issue for a socialist is the ownership of beachfront properties that limit access to others. I’m not saying nobody should have beachfront property but it shouldn’t all be in private hands. I was a beach bum growing up with access to Rockaway and Jones beaches. I don’t bother with jones beach anymore because it’s ridiculously crowded and the fee for a single person in a car 🤣.
I’m extremely progressive on the outside and radically progressive on the inside. I’m a socialist because of my high moral values, standards, and ability to emphasize with others members of the human race. . I generally keep my thoughts to myself because the most Americans couldn’t “wrap their mind around them”. I have absolutely no issue with people who own their own homes and property that is a complete misunderstanding of a socialist mindset. I believe in home ownership after all it is the American dream I grew up with. I have had the privilege of living in either my family home or my own property for the majority of my life, it has its benefits like putting a pool in the yard for the kids. My issue is with those that use housing to subjugate certain populations. Or those large corporations that scooped up property during housing market crash and now use those properties to extort as much money as possible from people just trying to get by. It’s cruel. What about our poor homeless population, shut out of housing due to these types of greedy actions. As a socialist I believe EVERYONE should have the opportunity and ability to purchase a home of their own.
Home prices will fall through 2020 levels like a hot knife cuts butter. Disaster will go into the history books to write about for a thousand years!
“Progressives” has always been a sweet flowery term for Marxist .
Gold will just be another bubble where Wall Street makes money and then they will pull out the rug and move on to the next bubble
This narrative does not make much sense. The banks are buying gold and that is weakening the dollar and making us to have to "compete" with the rest of the world? The Fed is going to reduce the dollar supply and that is suppose to weaken the dollar? Donald Trump has done nothing to stabilize the dollar? You got a lot more explaining to do to prove your point.
The pandering to the crypto community ?? I do not believe that. The fiat system has caused all the suffering all over the globe. Exposing the fake system
Sell gold. Buy bitcoin.
You said yourself we have a governance problem. It’s not Trump’s fault that Congress won’t budget themselves. They are thieves.
I listen to everyone… why… to know that there are people like this out there that dont know what they are talking about. He isng entirely wrong,
This guy has no clue.
