Financial assets are at or near all-time highs — yet the Fed continues to shovel coal onto the fire.

On Friday we got a signal that the bubble might be about to burst.

April 12, 2021

Dear Fellow Investor,

Last week I got a timely call from a good friend. He had news of a great development for him personally…and for investors at large.

As it turns out, it was serendipity at work. Because that call is leading to information that could save — or make — you a fortune.

Allow me to explain…

Smart People Doing Great Things

Last Tuesday my cell phone lit up to my consternation. I was busy on a writing deadline, and didn’t need another phone call disrupting my thinking.

But I saw the phone screen light up with “Adam Taggart” and immediately dropped whatever else I was doing. His calls are always enjoyable and illuminating.

As I’ve noted previously, Adam has long been part of the dynamic duo behind the Peak Prosperity service, teaming up with Chris Martenson to deliver valuable insights on how to maximize your life experiences during good times…and how to preserve it when/if things turn really bad.

As it turned out, Adam called to tell me that he was branching out with a new YouTube channel — called Wealthion — featuring his interviews with prominent thought leaders. And it was going to be something truly exceptional.

In brief:

• It's a high-quality interview series for “regular” investors looking to make sense of today's markets and identify prudent ways to safeguard and grow their wealth

• It features amazing guest experts — like Jim Grant, Jim Rogers, Ron Paul, Grant Williams, Stephanie Pomboy, Jim Bianco, Luke Gromen, Danielle DiMartino Booth and many others (including yours truly!)

• It's spinning out of PeakProsperity.com into its own YouTube channel, and those who subscribe now are helping ensure this excellent series will get noticed early by YouTube's algorithms

That’s the first part of why I’m writing you today. This remarkable service is completely free.

All you need do is go to youtube.com/wealthion and click the "Subscribe" button, and you’ll get full access to all of these valuable interviews.

Now, here’s the urgent part…

Adam had also called to alert me to something one of his first guests had conveyed. Macro analyst Wolf Richter had provided a compelling argument that much higher inflation was on the way — inflation pressures so great that they would force the Fed to act.

And this would crash the current, massively over-blown bubble in financial assets.

I urge you to consider Richter’s compelling arguments — here’s a link to Adam’s interview with him:

Adam’s call was especially well-timed, because (as you know), I’ve been predicting much greater inflationary pressures as post-pandemic demand runs headlong into pandemic-spawned supply disruptions.

But then, on Friday, we got the Producer Price Index numbers for March. This was the first of the major economic data points to include the expected base effect of a year-over-year comparison to the depths of the pandemic.

Although some hefty comparisons were expected, it was much more dramatic than feared. The PPI came in at 1.0%, which was double the consensus expectation, while the core rate at 0.7% was over triple expectations.

The year-over-year comps were impressive, with the headline PPI up 4.2% over last March and the core rate (ex: food and energy) up 3.1%.

In short, the question of whether we’re going to get higher inflation is no longer academic — it’s already in the pipeline.

And considering that these inflationary pressures could burst the bubbles in stocks, bonds and real estate…and completely change the global economic landscape…it’s vitally important that you watch Adam’s interview with Wolf Richter now.

All the best,
