Michelle Makori, Lead Anchor and Editor-in-Chief at Kitco News, interviews Dave Collum, Professor of Organic Chemistry at Cornell University and Zero Hedge Contributor, who says that markets are currently overvalued by 150%. Collum warns that dishonest macroeconomic metrics hide the coming “catastrophic” correction. He weighs in on the upcoming BRICS summit and the accelerating de-dollarization trend. Collum cautions that a “gruesome” decade could be ahead with the U.S. dollar at risk of collapse. He also shares his investment strategy for the short-term and for the next 40 years, including his gold price forecast.

Only Monero stays true to the vision of digital cash that can be used by the average Joe. And that is why it is used in real markets like xmrbazaar.1:05
lol mass shootings are a new thing? Please. Ask a tough question.
Trust Obama with the football,hugh? He had more bombs dropped on the human race than any president in history and killed a group of our marines, and the list goes on. I guess you're not that smart and I guess nothing else you say will have much meaning, bye!
He sure is right about us destroying ourselfs, deepstate idealogues have been steering ship for most of this century into a foggy abyss, iceburgs up ahead,WATCH OUT! Bang too bad.😮😢🎉
This explains why the public debt is growing faster this century thanthe last & actual GDP is going nowhere because bureaucracy is eating up private capital investment more than in the past.Socialism is a fact of life in most countries,to a large degree.
Everything should be adjusted by M2 and not CPi!
Very smart man, logic in motion. Love to see him on again.
This guy thinks like I do. BlackRock was allowed to have credit to buy bitcoin with ETA's . and they will inflate the price then dump it and break most everyone else. Larry the Fink IS GOVERNMENT !
The US has been fudging the figures for a decade now. No surprise, its just that the US does not have investors in the market now, more like gamblers.
Or where would one turn for help if she could prove she is the legal owner, account holder, beneficiary, heiress, named party of that Trust account fund, store/hold of value, that is printed & publicized on all US currency, coinage, money, legal tender: “In God We Trust”. And that my property ownership claims I am entitled as a certified, verified, officiated, government issued & titled original genesis, native born, natural born, super natural born, full American Sovereign Citizen, identified & registered as God, the Godhead, Jesus Christ as the daughter that is the Sun/Seon/Sion/Soon/Son of God, Lot’US, “man” (“hand”) of God, Original Sooner, world child ren lands, to list but a few examples I have government issued legal proof and evidence as well as being the named holder, bearer, bodied, propertied & landed sovereign citizen legally recognized as such beginning in 1974, 1980, 1981, and most formally certified, legal court proceedings judgements, DOJ et al government agencies issuance & registration, etc in 1988 as amongst other things a triune unity legally recognized by/of my adopted names identity legally given me by my adoptive US National, multi generational American United States born, parents & thus I am also legally born of and into their familial descendance ancestry in addition to my original primordial genesis original generation creation with no progenitor cause or precursor biological parentage. I am a prima geniture (first born child of God as my parents/mother-father parental unit) daughter named as a Son/Sun/Soon simply and literally named as “God”….
But America is a secular government and thus this Trust in God’s name references a real person, a sovereign citizen named God and an actual Trust fund, account, assets, money, monies, pecuniary properties, value stores, property, currencies, etc etc. The entirety of the wealth and value assets and property of the whole empire, globalized dominion of which I am the true owner and legally entitled as a registered, certified, issued, titled, legally recognized, government designated & authorized full sovereign citizen so propertied, personal identification named, bodied (corporeal) and embodying natural, material, physical living breathing sentient mind consciousness flesh & blood super natural human biological sex female ecce homo life form that is the sovereign citizen, I am.
Correct on the Russia thing. War is too profitable for your unscrupulous.
Markets and reality are detached. When reality hits the streets we will get our correction. But maybe reality will remain elusive, short at your peril.
Government ("macro-economic) statistics always incorporate errors of aggregation. Also, consumption (if we could measure it) would provide a better representation of economic activity. The sole purpose for an economic system consists of consumption. The booms of malinvestment lead to the busts of reduced consumer buying.
This guy is obviously a trumper who has missed greatest bull mkt of all time.
Gold is worst asset long term, only one worst is t-bills.
I despise his politics and can tell he really loves trump and despises Dems.
Fuck him, he is a loser as all gold bugs are, real estate and stocks is where one really creates REAL worth.
Sounds like he despises Biden and Dems.
Now look at where we are. He is just another misguided human who sounds convincing, but knows nothing.
Think I’ll unsubscribe immed and Hd can fuck himself

This guy is very arrogant and annoying even if he’s right about a number of points
This aged like fine wine.

Woops, The Don is in …. She's Stupid… Da…
Everyone says "buy low, sell high," but for retirees already fully invested, that’s tough during a downturn. I’m down over $30K , really debating if I should move to cash or just ride it out. Anyone else in the same boat?
great interview
Bitcoin isn't viable as long as half was kept by its inventer.
Dave is spot on across the board.
