Portfolio manager Michael Pento (https://pentoport.com/) highlights the inflationary risks tied to unchecked currency printing and the potential for a liquidity crisis, similar to past events. Pento warns that such a crisis could freeze credit markets, leading to an economic collapse unless the Fed intervenes by printing even more money, exacerbating inflation. He explains that gold is a favorable investment in scenarios of inflation or stagflation, as it thrives in environments of economic stagnation and rising prices.
