“Gold jumped 5% after the Democrats’ landslide. Then it fell more than 6% because the Fed talked about a 50 basis point hike. One 25 basis point hike in six months and traders still believe the talk. Inflation won. Gold below $4,000 is a gift.”

“October headline and core producer prices rose 0.3%, with YoY prices rising 6.5% and 5%, respectively. Since the PPI leads the CPI, these numbers are inconsistent with the CPI heading down to 2% and show that far more aggressive rate hikes are needed than the Fed has indicated.”

“Gold is down $50, back below $4,000 based on the belief the Fed may hike interest rates by 50 basis points. By the time it does inflation will have increased by over 200 basis points and will be headed much higher. The rate hikes are a non-event. Buy gold.”

“The CPI will likely rise 5% in 2026 and by more than 7% in 2027, higher than any calendar year under Biden. The Fed's planned rate hikes are too little, too late to prevent this. The federal funds rate must be raised by at least 200 basis points now to possibly stop this train.”
Peter Schiff Calls for 200 Basis Point Rate Hike to Combat Surging Inflation →

“With all of the major stock market indexes lower this week, the standout winners were precious metals mining stocks. The $GDX surged 9.6%. This is a sign of things to come. A sharp turn to the left, and the higher inflation that will result, will be extremely bullish for gold.”

“The most likely legislation Congress can pass that Trump will sign will preserve all the tax cuts Trump brags about but include all the extra spending that Democrats want. It may also contain a complete repeal of the national debt ceiling and price controls on credit card interest rates. The result will be massive increases in already massive federal budget deficits. If the economy also slips into recession due to a big slowdown in AI capex, budget deficits currently running at around $3 trillion annually could…”

“A few months ago interest on the national debt passed defense. Now it’s 40% higher. Next year it passes Social Security. The biggest line in the budget is the one nobody voted for.”

“It's 2008 for Housing and 2021 for Inflation.. At the Same Time. Export prices rose 2.2% in September. That's more than the Fed's entire 2% yearly inflation target in a single month. Annualized, it's 30%. The cost of living crisis is about to get much worse.”
- October 21, 2026 · on X
“The Fed's inflation target is 2% a year. Export prices just rose 2.2% in one month. That annualizes to 30%. Producer prices rose 1.3%, a 17% annual rate. Oil just hit a five-month high of $110. If you think the cost of living crisis is bad now.. just wait”

“Oil is $110, up another 6% this morning. We are still early in a major breakout in the price of oil that will substantially raise the cost of living. Plus, it's not just energy. The price of all everyday necessities is about to soar. This is a tax hike to cover deficit spending.”

“My electricity bill for my primary residence was 24% higher in Oct. 2026 than it was in Oct. 2025. It's the same house with all the same appliances. This isn't what happens in an economy where the inflation rate is anywhere near 2%. That's just one bill. They're all going way up.”

“CPI, PPI and import prices all came in hotter than expected this week. Traders sold gold anyway. They think it means the Fed will fight harder. It means the Fed already lost. Gold at $4,145 is a gift.”

“Don't pay attention to what Warsh says; look at what he does. If he were serious about reducing inflation, the Fed's balance sheet and M2 would be shrinking. Instead, the balance sheet is larger than when he became Fed Chair, and M2 is growing at nearly a 6% annualized rate.”

“Producer prices skyrocketed 1.3% in Sept., almost triple estimates. That annualizes to an inflation rate of nearly 17%! YoY PPI rose 6.3%. Sept. core rose 0.7%. That annualizes to nearly 9% inflation. PPI is a leading indicator of CPI. Despite rate hikes, real rates are plunging.”

“I’m tired of hearing Republicans who voted for the Big Beautiful Bill take credit for cutting taxes. They did not. That bill made the federal government bigger and more expensive than ever. The public will bear that burden, which will more than offset those fake tax cuts.”

“29,000 Jobs and Bonds Still Fell.. The Bond Vigilantes Are Here”

“Not only were the 29K jobs created in Sept. below expectations, but as I predicted last month, July and Aug. were revised down by 31K and 29K respectively. My guess is that all three months will ultimately be revised even lower. We have a weak labor market with strong inflation.”

“The 10-year Treasury yield topped 5.33%, the highest since 2002. Our national debt in 2002 was just $6 trillion. Paying 5.33% on that entire amount would cost $319.8 billion annually. On today’s $40.1 trillion debt, it would cost $2.14 trillion annually—more than Social Security.”

“The yield on the 10-year Treasury just hit 5.27%. It first hit 5% exactly two weeks ago. At this rate, the yield will hit 6% by Nov. 5, just two days after the midterm elections. By then the interest rate on a 30-year mortgage will be over 8%. That'll be a major issue for voters.”

“At one time the U.S. was a low debt, low interest rate economy. We then became a low debt, high interest rate economy. After that we got lucky and became a high debt, low interest rate economy. Our luck just ran out. Get ready for our new high debt, high interest rate economy.”

“The S&P 500 is 0.7% below a record high, yet 430 of those stocks are 21.7% below their highs. That means on average 86% of the stocks are in a bear market. Breadth has only been this bad twice, in January 1973 and in 1999/2000. On both occasions, the S&P then crashed nearly 50%”
