Jim Rickards on how to invest during the new great depression

Paul Buitink talks to best-selling author Jim Rickards about his new book 'The New Great Depression'. Jim explains the difference between recessions and depressions. He says the US could be considered in a depression since 2008 in terms of depressed growth.
Follow Jim on Twitter at @JamesGRickards
Follow Paul on Twitter at @paulbuitink.
They talk about unemployment and the Labor Force Participation Rate which is declining. Real unemployment is more around 12-15%
Decline of New York is discussed and how lockdowns are not effective but do destroy economies.
Money velocity can be increased by raising inflation expectations by devaluing dollar against gold.
Jim's price target for gold is $14,000 in 2025. Jim still thinks crypto is nonsense and it’s just gambling. He also criticizes Tether and calls it the biggest Ponzi in the whole world. Jim explains how Bitcoin is different and worse than gold and the dollar system in his view. Elon Musk he calls the P.T. Barnum of this age.
Jim expects a big new SDR issue later this year between 500 and 2000 billion.

I used to follow Jim Rickards, now I think he always making his forecasts based on the worst apocalypse scenario that normally doesn’t happen.

[@jakestevens7283]

Huh? Over the years he has routinely downplayed how a currency reset is actually normal and how it has happened several times in America, as opposed to many who tell you that the sky is falling. I used to always notice how he didn't fear monger like many other people. Lol so by definition you are basically calling anyone who sees apocalyptic scenarios unfolding as being wrong...sounds like you simply reject anything that opposes normalcy bias. I don't understand how mass exoduses out of cities isn't indeed worse than anything we've seen in our lifetimes. If calling a spade a spade is apocalyptic then so be it.

[@rockymarcianothe3rd135]

No need for lengthy explanations... he has been just wrong as can be. Very disappointed with his forecasts. Just sad!

[@jakestevens7283]

I wasn't trying to say that he hasn't been horribly wrong, I was saying that he's not your typical run of the mill apocalyptic doom & gloomer

Go have a look at his book release history, a new book almost every single year, it's starting to sound like he is just making money off people by selling them fear. You also have to pay for his newsletters, again profiting off fear. Think about it this way, if I tell you now that an economic collapse is coming, I am going to right eventually, right? How is that different to this guy? The only difference actually is that he's been saying it for years and I've only just said it now.

[@jakestevens7283]

You must not listen to other doom & gloomers. Rickards doesn't talk about blood on the streets like a lot of others do is all I'm saying, things such as 90% of Earth's population being killed off by design by the elite. Although I do find those ultra Hell on Earth vids to be very entertaining, the more extreme the more entertaining lol. Yes I agree though that Rickard's predictions have been God awful. I think that Greg Mannarino is very good with his predictions

[@nodnostrebor4300]

Fed Chair Paul Volker taught us all the best way to increase the velocity of money. It takes time. But, if interest rates are allowed to float higher to the market appetite, over time, people will work to put money in the bank to receive interest on their savings. At a certain point, when savings are high enough, and interest rates are also high enough, suddenly consumers feel secure enough to spend some of their accumulated interest. This alone will increase the velocity of money in a productive manner. Savers are the bedrock of a good economy. Savers need to be rewarded so there are more savers. Take a look around. Savers are being strangled. Don't expect savers to contribute ANYTHING to the velocity of money under these conditions.

My opinion of Jim Rickards went up after listening to this interview. Although I still don't agree with his use of the new definition "inflation" to be based solely on velocity , (IMO.) that definition and items listed to track for measurement has been changed by Government in their effort to hide liabilities. He made a very good case for the effects of a distorted market and gold/silver as forms of real assets to limit the damage of a depression. I also agree that crypto provides no alternative to a Dollar/Debt system when things implode. I am left asking myself one question, does he really think that the total gold tonnage reported as, is really in Fort Knox to base his $10,000 figure on?

Well that was informative... for these reasons: - Tether folks are still in violation of US regulations - Tether folks could be buying BTC and inflating the BTC price - New issuance of SDRs this year is possible. I wonder whether this coincides with Ripple legal issues. - New York losing 1 million people of a city of 8 million where the subways are increasingly not deemed to be safe. - reserve currency is not defined by currency held but rather by instruments denominated in that currency Unfortunately, there was no discussion of Ripple or Stellar which are not mined, but are capped at 100 and 50 Billion, respectively.

[@maniad1]

We have the same familiar faces talking about things that would and should happen under free market economies. That’s why what he says is correct. Reality proves him wrong because we do not have a free market. It’s a managed and manipulated market and the only ppl who know how to preserve wealth are central bankers with a thumb on the scale.

[@GTJW22409]

Exactly, they manipulate people like him because they know this is the line of thinking any sound investor will use. You have to use more than logic in this economy. You have to follow the narratives and geopolitical issues all around the world and then try to think 10 years ahead. After all that you also need be lucky enough to have picked the right companies that were chosen to save the markets, as there will companies competing to provide solutions. And that BARELY scratches the surface. So the take away First secure food, water and shelter in case of a collapse. Get out of debt. Plan on losing your job, and a plan b if that happens. Be impartial and research both sides of each narrative. Research solutions for the problems, and research the companies and who backs them even deeper. Diversify incase you are wrong and only invest what you can. And I'll leave you with one final statement. In the great depression banks froze everyones bank account and would not let you take out more than 5% of your total cash balance. After 2008 a law was passed where banks are allowed to use YOUR money to do a self bailout in an emergency.

[@tycobrahe7663]

Was the velocity of money in Weimar Germany doubling ever 24 hours or was the supply of currency and credit doubling 24 hours Jim?

[@painlord2k]

Both, probably. People didn't trust the currency and they got rid of it as soon as they received it. He is right that just printing money and getting it sit in the accounts and never be used will not increase the general level of prices. But if it starts to get in circulation then the general level of prices will start to go up. Maybe not for everything immediately, just for the things the new money is initially used for.

[@elliotmartin6952]

@@painlord2k the velocity certainly increased but it wasn't consistently doubling every 24hrs. It reached a limit. I agree with jim that you need to have velocity to see the effect on prices but to say that it is more reliant on velocity is nonsense.

[@painlord2k]

@@elliotmartin6952 It depends on the demand and supply of currency. If you kills demand the prices increases just because you need to offer an insane quantity of currency to get what you want. E.G. In Argentina they got a crisis and a spike in prices when they corralled the bank accounts and forcefully converted the USD accounts balances in pesos. The actual supply of pesos went down (IIRC around 30%). The problem was the demand for pesos went down "More. Much more" (cit.) and nearly no one wanted them as their utility was severely reduced by the government. In this case, velocity is "nearly infinite" because the first thing people think when getting paid is how to get rid of the currency in exchange for anything useful. Technically, the "demand to hold" is virtually zero.

people say it has no value. while it's currently trading around $50,000. when is Bitcoin going to $0? After it hits $1,000,000? I'm not buying the idea that Bitcoin is worthless

Velocity is not inflation. Currency creation is not inflation. The combination of both is inflation.

[@justinbernardo8240]

currency creation is inflation. You are inflating the money supply with more money out of thin air, that is literally called inflation. If you pump up a balloon with air what are you doing, inflating it right? Okay lets say you pump up the balloon half way, and now u stop and you pump it up again with even more air. What is the definition of that? You are inflating the balloon with more air. The combination of both what you just said is hyper inflation. Money velocity+currency creation at the same time leads to hyper inflation

[@granden2077]

@@justinbernardo8240 Yes. You are reciting old definitions. I understand. Schiff has the same definition of inflation. Richards another. Dent another. Gammon another. Aldrin another. Currency creation and Velocity can be inflation or hyperinflation. Both are needed. Price is a consequence of infllation which is used to define inflation now.

@@xaviersoto3978 You may be right, Bitcoin will have some extremely powerful enemies in time, and all it will take is any nation state and some quantum computers, and they could crash the whole thing.

Jim is the type of guy to look at Apple in 1993 and say “this is cute but IBM will pave the way” Crypto vs Precious Metals. Cryptos are tech like ADA, VeChain, Etc. Real technology. Bitcoin is a garbage dump that people talk about. Real practicals cryptos are things that improve the quality of life. ADA is a heavily decentralized blockchain that can be used for voting, money transfers, internet 3.0, high security against quantum computer, etc. Bitcoin is the store value for cryptos. All the crypto talk is unrelated to gold. Because gold and precious metals are the reserve currency for when we get hit by an EMP or a solar flare and all the cryptos are useless. Just my ¢2

he has been so wrong regarding gold and silver. he was claiming 50K price for gold. i wouldnt take advice from this clown

[@JiibarO]

I've seen some of his interviews, and what he means by $50K gold is, for it to reach that price we got to have hyperinflation. He said something about "not wanting to live in this world if gold reaches $50K" but I don't remember which interview was. And not only him, other economists say the same thing. So for us to reach that level, the Dollar has to be destroyed by hyperinflation. But, I do prefer listening to Peter Schiff. He's much more concise and a bit more realistic, imo. He's also more spot on with his predictions just because he really knows his thing. GOD bless🙏🏼
