Christopher Casey: What Happens To Markets After Brexit?

Jason Burack of Wall St for Main St interviewed first time guest, Managing Director of Wind Rock Wealth Management http://windrockwealth.com/, Christopher Casey.

During this 30+ minute interview, Jason starts off by asking Chris about Brexit and if he thinks it's good for freedom?

Chris says it's too early to tell but that UK politicians, bureaucrats, central planners and Bank of England central bankers are good at screwing things up in the UK economy without help from the European Union (EU).

Jason and Chris talk about whether the economic and political elites expected the Brexit vote to turn out the way it did.

Next, Jason asks Chris how he found the Austrian School of Economics and why he likes it?

Chris talks about his background learning economics, reading books about economics and how after reading Milton Friedman he found a book from Mark Skousen called, Economics on Trial.

Jason and Chris discuss Austrian School Economics and why it's good to learn and discuss Murray Rothbard's book about the 1929 Great Depression.

Next, Jason asks Chris about stock market valuations and if it's likely there's a potential stock market crash in the next 6-12 months? Chris says there's a high probability of a crash during that time period because valuations, especially using price to revenues, are at all time highs.

Jason then asks Chris about the rally in oil in 2016 and if it's sustainable?

To wrap up the interview, Jason asks Chris about precious metals, the importance of diversification in one's investment portfolio and whether as a money manager for clients he is worried about counter party risk and bail ins with potential bank failures on the horizon?

1) Former Goldman Sachs alumni and current Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank President recently said in public that the Federal Reserve serves Main St. Do you agree with him?

2) Will the powerful politicians and bureaucrats running the EU allow Brexit to occur?

Look inside the ECB's asset buying (manipulation) program (of propaganda) http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-06-13...

3) Do you think the economic and political elites were meeting at the recent Bilderberg meeting to discuss how to implement fully digital currencies and a cashless society on a global scale?

4) Do you think the US wants a new president in place in Brazil to allow US oil companies to buy up assets from PetroBras as Petrobras faces financial problems from low oil prices and too much debt? Are the Chinese also planning how to get involved in this with strategic investments into mining and oil in Brazil?

5) China is now issuing RMB bonds from it's BRICs bank and Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. In your opinion what does this mean for the global financial system and the Petro Dollar?

6) Bloomberg recently ran an article saying that the Chinese want to have more control over how all commodities are priced since China is the largest buyer of many commodities. Do you think China is doing a step by step process to castrate the LBMA and the COMEX?

7) Do you think there's a manipulation tug of war in the oil market between Russia/Saudis who want the higher cost producers all bankrupt while Wall St banks want to move oil prices higher to avoid declaring tens of billions in bad oil loans?

was in a public meeting with Senator Harry Reid. All Sanders could bring

Dave Skarica: A New Commodities Bubble is Starting?

Jason Burack of Wall St for Main St interviewed hedge fund manager, author and newsletter writer of Addicted to Profits http://addictedtoprofits.net/, Dave Skarica.

During this hour+ long interview, Jason starts off by asking Dave about his book Collapse! he wrote in 2014 and why the stock market hasn't collapsed?

Dave talks about the global economy and how different central banks are trying to keep the party going and fueling asset bubbles, etc.

Dave thinks if the stock market crashes before the November 2016 election that it guarantees a win for Donald Trump in the election.

Next, Jason asks Dave about legendary investor Sir John Templeton since Jason and Dave have both studied the investments and career of John Templeton. Jason asks Dave what Templeton would have been buying the last year or so and what Templeton would have been shorting using his investing methodology if Templeton were still alive? Dave says Templeton made a fortune investing in copper and base metal miners when they were very cheap in the mid-late 1990s and Templeton probably would have been buying gold stocks and other resource stocks in the last year because many were at the point of maximum pessimism.

Jason and Dave discuss the gold mining industry and why gold has had a rally since December.

Dave thinks ultimately all global central bankers are trapped and there will be a worse stagflation coming. He also thinks central banks will unintentionally create a new commodities bubble as central banks attempt to devalue their fiat currencies.
