00:00:11.000I mean, I don't know how else to say it really matters because it is going to impact interest rates, not just here domestically, but globally.
00:00:19.620Right. And so, Alex, just a few days ago, consumer prices number came out up 4.2 percent in May.
00:00:30.000This is the most inflation has risen in over three years.
00:00:34.400Not a good time to have inflation, right?
00:00:37.380Now, a lot of that's because of the price of oil and the surrounding conflict and everything else.
00:00:41.640But Alex, central bankers don't get it.
00:00:44.800They are so wrong so much of the time, right?
00:00:49.020So I was just doing some research, you know, a couple of days ago, put this together, right?
00:00:53.780So central banks around the world use a monetary system called inflation targeting monetary policy where they target where they want inflation to be.
00:01:05.200If it's greater than that number, they have to raise rates to slow it down.
00:01:10.540If it's lower than that number, well, then, you know, then the economy is cooking, right?
00:01:15.280So here's where where is inflation compared to their target in the United States?
00:03:20.120We played it in context last hour, but I'm just going to play the short clips now for time.
00:03:25.600He said, are you worried about inflation?
00:03:28.880Oh, I love inflation because we grabbed 20 other ships.
00:03:35.660And we're not even sure that number is accurate, but they're all super tankers.
00:03:39.340That doesn't even match what was taken out of the strategic oil reserve.
00:03:42.840And we'll talk to an economist in a moment.
00:03:44.560There's so many factors to put in, but does that, does 20 tankers do anything to the overall baked-in inflation and uncertainty and fertilizer and helium and everything that's used for chips?
00:03:56.140No, it's already caused, U.S. farmers report to the U.S. Farming Bureau, a 56% can't get the fertilizer they need.
00:05:31.080We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.0.97
00:05:34.000We're fighting wars. We can't take care of daycare. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things.0.95
00:05:44.060They can do it on a state basis. You can't do it on a federal. We have to take care of one thing, military protection.
00:05:50.740If the Democrats, the DNC had a mind control ray and they could point it at Trump and make him say whatever they wanted.
00:05:56.780and Podesta and Obama are sitting around on the table with Hillary
00:06:01.160deciding, what do we want to make him say that's crazy?
00:08:48.880I mean, his agenda was great around put a pickle in that, right? Inflation matters. I mean, I don't know how else to say it really matters because it is going to impact interest rates, not just here domestically, but globally, right?
00:09:03.940And so, Alex, just a few days ago, consumer prices number came out up 4.2% in May.
00:09:13.640This is the most inflation has risen in over three years.
00:09:18.280Not a good time to have inflation, right?
00:09:21.380Now, a lot of that's because of the price of oil and the surrounding conflict and everything else.
00:09:25.260But, Alex, central bankers don't get it.
00:09:28.780They are so wrong so much of the time, right?
00:09:32.980So I was just doing some research, you know, a couple of days ago, put this together, right?
00:09:37.780So central banks around the world use a monetary system called inflation targeting monetary policy where they target where they want inflation to be.
00:09:49.200If it's greater than that number, they have to raise rates to slow it down.
00:09:54.540If it's lower than that number, well, then, you know, then the economy is cooking, right?
00:09:59.260So here's where, where is inflation compared to their target?
00:10:02.980In the United States, Fed, 2% inflation target.
00:13:19.060They're all talking about a trader mentality, trading short term.
00:13:23.340See, the times like this when silver came down from January until now, because of the Iran conflict, not because of fundamental reasons, because of the noise of the conflict, there's still low supply, high demand.
00:13:36.840It's used for everything like we always talk about.
00:19:31.900And for people that don't understand, when China does this, when the EU does this, when they all print out, so do we, that just amplifies all the inflationary pressures.
00:19:40.640How bad, then, if it's still closed in six months, which it looks like that's where we're, that's a dead wrecking.
00:21:43.280They're dumping crypto to go into AI because all of a sudden, the massive gains you could get on crypto don't look as high as what you could get on AI.
