Peter Schiff returns to Kitco News for a fiery 2026 Outlook. Following a public spat where President Trump called him a “loser” on Truth Social, Schiff argues the bond market has finally declared a winner. With Silver breaking $66 and the Federal Reserve quietly launching a new $40 billion monthly bond-buying program, Schiff warns that the “Sovereign Debt Crisis” has officially begun.
In this deep-dive interview, Schiff explains why the Fed’s new “reserve management” is actually the start of a massive balance sheet expansion that could reach $20 Trillion. He lays out his roadmap for 2026, predicting a “quick” move to $100 Silver, a potential banking collapse worse than 2008, and the terrifying possibility of “Capital Controls” locking investors into a failing Dollar.
