Peter Schiff Mortgage Bankers Speech Nov/13/06

My Mortgage Bankers Speech from Nov 13th 2006 is now in one video clip. I gave this presentation at the the Western Regional Mortgage Bankers Conference in Las Vegas. There were over 2,000 mortgage bankers in attendance. I also made similar comments when I addressed this conference a year earlier in 2005 at the height of the real estate bubble. For those people who said no one saw it coming, this presentation is a real eye opener. Let's see if we can get this clip to go viral.
Thanks to a KZbinr called "csabasand" here is a full transcript: www.csaba.se/2009/09/26/peter-...

This was the last year they invited Peter. They didn't invite him back when it came true.

[@Eric345]

They stop inviting him because he couldn’t accurately predict the next crash. Is like saying is going to rain tomorrow, but it never does till one day. But we all knew that! One day it will eventually rain. Just like one day we will have a recession. But the question is when and how can I profit from it!!

[@antonkokic]

@@Eric345 nobody can't do that, it's not point of predicting it when, point is predicting it WHY...

[@Eric345]

Anton Kokić Well, if you know someone that is living beyond their means. You already know why. But the question is when will they run out of credit and cash and go bankrupt! Both great crashes were the results of over leveraging! Too much credit, not enough savings!

[@yesmayhem]

One year after your comment and it only gets worse. US doubled down on raising housing values to meet millionaire status. Peter's detractor at 1:01:55 is pathetically wrong. He doesn't miss the point, he ignores it. He then goes on to qualify his argument with the exception of an atomic bomb hitting the America's largest cities. He boasts US at 8 Trillion... India is at 7 trillion and anticipates 25 trillion in 3 years due to GROWTH. This video was made 2 years after I visited India in 2003 and 2004. 2003 cow dung ethanol for energy, 2004 fiber optic cables. How workers went from farming to doing things like cutting cubic zirconia for QVC. Where is this detractor now? So ironic Peter responds with the analogy of a heroin addict. Now the world buddies up and it looks like we'll be the chubby kid on the bench. The globe is focused on nothing but de-dollaring, commodities and the technology they are prepared to advance. Eating the food they worked for. If you listen, you hear them say things like GDP. Words now defunct in our language.

This video is legendary. It shows you how difficult it is for a sane person to transmit some sense midst a public of fully brain washed people that don't want to hear things they don't like. It takes a lot of courage for an economist to counter the mainstream bullish narrative at the time, without fearing to sound like an idiot.

[@rexfordhazelton7601]

This is insane. Peter understood what was happening in detail. He got inflation wrong after QE, but only partly. Inflation went into assets when they handed printed dollars to bankers. Covid brought printed money for the masses and now food an fuel are rising with stocks.

[@kurt6410]

+Wayne Jones yeah and since 2009 peter hasn't been right on about anything

[@shawn576]

+Kurt Mason He was right about QE2 and QE3. He was right about interest rates. The fed has been talking about raising rates for the past 4+ years, and Peter has consistently been right when he said they wouldn't do it. He's also been consistently right about the economy not improving. The fed releases all of these hockey stick projections where the economy is ready to explode next quarter, or the quarter after that, or the quarter after that, and it never comes. Home ownership is at a 4 decade low, labor participation is at a 4 decade low, labor participation among men is at an all time low, food stamps at record highs, child poverty at record highs. Peter will be proven wrong when the fed proves they can unwind QE, sell all of their US treasury holdings, and do it without imploding the economy. That sounds like an impossible goal to reach because it is. Peter is not psychic. He's pointing out the most obvious thing in the past century.

[@bitcoincustomerservice2770]

+Kurt Mason ...Peter hasn't been right about anything since 2009...yet! 2008 WAS the big crash...however, the more the Fed prints money, the more they can put off the final act of the crash. The Fed really IS done...they really don't have another card they can play...other than to continue to print money and stuff into the cracks they see fit. Crack that benefit them mind you! The rest of us are SOL.

[@tormentosaresident]

+Wayne Jones yep....more precisely...it's amazing how wrong can the whole world be and how deaf they turn (even Harvard and the "top" economists) even when someoene (in this case, Peter Schiff) is telling them and showing them the truth

[@felipefelipe1008]

+Kurt Mason Economic forecasts are not precise regarding the exact moment when something will happen. Peter forecasts all the QE's and their failures. Other forecasts that he did not yet occurred only because of QE's and FED intervention / manipulation of the markets, which are delaying and making the inevitable much worse! However, the greater the deflationary force became(the government will not allow this crisis to end in deflation), the more the government will have to print money, until to have to appeal to the helicopter money; that's the end of the game; Crash, Hyperinflation and Gold on high. It will be the enf of this fraudulent monetary system!

[@FenderGreg]

Explicit Tech my father who is worth about seven million, a product of the depression as a kid, and earned a upper middle class then to lower high class income during his life instinctively stayed away from speculating. he put his money in the bank, always bought a used car and paid cash when possible. he built a house on st. Simons Island Georgia in 1976 for a total of $42,000. it is now worth a million. he invested in stocks that pay dividends and if there was a bargain on a piece of land he would buy it. the sad part is that the Crux of his method which is to put your money in the bank and earn interest is gone. not sure what I'm saying but the whole system has turned upside down

[@izdatsumcp]

What did you say?

[@nsastef]

@@FenderGreg This is in essence what Schiff is saying: with low interest rates the government punishes savers. At the same time lower rates decreases the debt burden for those who take out loans. They do so, so that there is more inflow of money in the economy and the economy "looks and feels good " when in reality the party keeps going using borrowed money and it is only a matter of time for the lender to knocks on the door. Prices of real estate and stock market keep going up because of this irresponsible lending and many people make money on rising prices in the process (wealth and income gap widens). The flip side of this would be stock market and house prices crashing and interest rates shoot through the stars. This would only happen though when countries fear about the value of their own currencies so they try to protect it when capital flights occur. Then people would be unable to pay their mortgages, the value of stocks and real estate would go down and foreclosures would ensue. People will have no jobs no value on their real estate or stocks, will protest and become fanatical joining either the far left or the far right and probably blame the migrants for taking their jobs. Then they will vote for another hitler in power surrender all their freedoms for food and maybe lead the world in a third world war. That being said maybe it's better to keep our eyes shut and dream!

This is a wonderful video of the logic and pragmatism and complete understanding of economics Peter has. He is an American hero, just like his father.

[@tmcmellon]

This should be shown in high schools and colleges. It's brilliant.

[@simetarle8829]

Literally my favourite video, cheers for posting bro

[@stephenclark5812]

I really wonder if the people who laughed at Peter when he made this speech are still laughing?

[@mr3817]

Very poignant observation! Yes, they're still laughing at him. The Fed came in with even more money than ever before in history and has been reflating the bubble still... Not everything he said needed to happen to clear the excess was allowed to happen and is only being kept higher by insane amount of Fed stimulus... watch his 2015 Jackson Hole speach, very insightful!

This guy is so bloody right it's amazing!!!

2019👍👍

[@johnarmon7818]

AWESOME!! I saw this back in 2006! Wow, Truth is Truth! Great job Peter!

[@pepsime6895]

did you get the swaps?

[@gblargg]

Q&A, Schiff on the left answering questions off-the-cuff. Barry reading from a book, then attacking Schiff's motives rather than his technical arguments. Pathetic.

[@jdkale]

This is just unbelievably brilliant.

[@justaguy6903]

This man is the greatest man I know. He is my biggest teacher in life!

[@alfredot.8426]

Congratulations and thanks to Peter for sharing his views back then and now

[@cnsmiles]

Ryan Gosling’s fictitious character should have been adapted to Peter Schiff. He essentially laid down the exact argument in real life what “Jarret” did in “Mark’s” office. This is in 2006 so this presentation is 1 year before the timing of that scene.

[@JosueTheBigot]

This is great. Love it.

[@eric3020]

Peter is a real life Gordon Gekko! This speech is just as entertaining as the "Greed is Good" speech, and far more relevant...

[@ronripplinger5235]

Peter is the best. Plain and simple!

[@prodbylxfi7093]

This has got to be the biggest "I told you so" in history

[@eteezie]

This is my fourth time watching this speech. I first watched in in 2008. It was the first time I had ever heard Peter or his economic theory. It was like I had been awakened from a deep sleep. At the time, I had recently purchased a home, at the peak of the market no less. Everything this man said just made sense.

[@JulieAnimus]

Peter you explain this all so a kid can understand it. Economic literacy should be as important as math and reading in education.

[@Pwnsweet]

Thanks for coming from the future to help us Peter

[@bradcarter842]

23:55 My God, he literally showed what would happen in 2 years. Watch this part when he says "Where are we now?". He was so right...eerie

[@nickstopler1151]

This is amazing.. as close as it comes to fortune telling. Peter is as good as they come.

[@grass.dihenia2590]

Peter, you're incredible

[@niedz19]

This is amazing. I had only been listening to Peter's podcast, but he led me over here and I subscribed to the channel. Cool to see that his economic fundamentals are the same then as now. And that he spoke the truth and, although made fun of at that time, had his redemption!

[@patrickdurst3495]

"It'll take an atomic bomb..." Oh, shit! A wild Pandemic appeared...

[@harrythornton7217]

Pretty much having the same effect but it's an invisible virus as opposed to invisible radioactive isotopes

[@superduperjoi6800]

lol
