Jason Burack of Wall St for Main St and managing editor of The News Doctors and independent financial journalist, Eric Dubin are back for Episode #31 of Welcome to Dystopia.
To start the show, Jason and Eric discus whether gold and silver have bottomed?
Eric talks about how the currency markets are affecting gold and silver prices and Jason talks about how the President of Turkey is calling FOREX speculators "terrorists" http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01...
Jason and Eric then talk about capital controls in China, Bitcoin and how there's now a tug of war between the elite's version of globalism that only benefits people in the West with some cheap goods and economic nationalism post Brexit, Donald Trump and Italian referendum.
Jason and Eric also discuss what could go wrong with Trump raising tariffs on China.
There's some good laughs in this episode!
