Schiff on Fox Business: The Fed Just Admitted It’s Powerless

On Wednesday Peter appeared on Fox business to dissect the latest PPI figures and the Fed’s newest decision to hold rates steady.

Schiff w/ Horowitz: Gold Is Being Targeted

Last week, in his second recent interview with Daniel Horowitz, Peter lays out a broad critique of today’s economic policy and market behavior.

Is the Treasury’s Issuance Strategy a Stealth Bailout?

After once criticising former Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen’s strategy of increasing the Treasury’s share of short-term debt issuance, Scott Bessent has decided to continue the same strategy. It’s part of the Trump administration’s bid to keep long-term interest rates down. But by using fiscal tools to provide low-cost liquidity to financial markets, it’s a bailout […]
