GOLD: The Only Way to Fix a Broken System I Mark Skousen
America’s economist Mark Skousen joins us from the floor of the New Orleans Investment Conference to break down the real state of the U.S. economy. Why consumer spending hides a coming slowdown, how tariffs and AI are reshaping productivity, and why the Fed may already be behind the curve.
From inflation distortion to gross output, Skousen exposes what’s really driving the markets and what’s coming next.
