Yesterday I had Roberto Rios (aka The Peruvian Bull) on the podcast for an interesting conversation on the 30,000 foot view of the macro world. We talked about the Fed and the Treasury, precious metals, real estate, crypto, and everything in between. If you’re interested in the big picture for different assets in the world of currency debasement, you will enjoy this one. You can find him on Twitter and YouTube, as well as his Substack below.
