Resource Talks, Released on 8/24/23

David Rosenberg, Rosenberg Research founder, says a US recession has been delayed, not derailed. That has made David bearish on commodities, besides gold & uranium. He thinks that deflation in the housing market will cause panic, which he thinks is bullish for gold. As to uranium, Rosenberg says that the supply-demand imbalance in uranium is too profound to ignore. Looking at the news, you may think that the economy may dodge a recession. The calls for a “soft landing” are turning into ones of “no landing at all”. According to Rosenberg, the headlines are selling a false narrative. David told me that the recession is already here, deflation (not inflation) is the big threat, and the current market frenzy is a classic stock mania that will end the way all bubbles do. He calls for a crash in the second half of the year.
