Liberty and Finance, Released on 3/6/25

David Hunter discusses his view on an impending global market “free-fall” and the financial crisis that could surpass the 2008 recession. He predicts the end of a 43-year secular bull market in stocks, followed by a sharp, parabolic final stage in the market before a drastic downturn. Hunter emphasizes that the global banking system is at risk, with potential widespread bank failures contributing to a financial bust. While the Federal Reserve may initially ease rates, Hunter foresees a massive increase in its balance sheet as it combats the crisis, with a likely surge in bond purchases and the possibility of negative short-term bond yields. Ultimately, he believes precious metals like gold and silver will thrive in the aftermath of the bust, marking the beginning of a new cycle driven by inflation and money printing.
