On Tuesday’s episode of The Peter Schiff Show, Peter walks through the latest flare-up with Iran, the strange market response to de-escalation, and the future of the wartime economy. He argues that headlines about war and peace are being subordinated to one force above all — the Federal Reserve — and makes the case that […]

One of the key tenets of Austrian economics is a deep focus on process rather than outcomes. While many other forms of economic or political theory have a stronger emphasis on results, Austrian economics is unique in that it believes that the best results will ultimately arise from the enablement of good processes rather than […]

Peter opens this episode by walking listeners through what he sees as two diverging monetary stories: gold’s quiet march higher after a period of consolidation, and Bitcoin’s fragile plumbing that could amplify losses when the market turns. He frames these trends as a test of sound money versus speculative credit structures, and he ties the […]

President Trump has recommended imposing aggressive new tariffs of 50% on European Union imports—more than double the 20% reciprocal tariff rate currently suspended. With the tariffs set to take effect on June 1, only nine […]

First there was the first Trump trade war, which appeared to end before it began. Now, a dizzying Round Two has begun of the Trump tariff saga, and it isn’t clear what concessions will be made. But there is a common denominator: things change quickly under a Trump administration, with a rapid-fire news cycle and […]

On Tuesday’s episode of the Peter Schiff Show, Peter takes us through this week’s turbulence in the stock and crypto markets. As new trade wars, a Bitcoin crash, and growing deficits signal stagflation, the only asset safe from the turmoil appears to be gold.

Peter released a brief video addressing the looming resurgence of inflation. Ironically, on the back of disappointing inflation numbers, gold witnessed a dip below $2000 on Tuesday due to higher-than-expected CPI data.
