Last week, Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh talked gold and silver down during his Jackson Hole speech, playing the tough guy facing down inflation.
But as Mike Maharrey reminds listeners in this week's Midweek Memo, Warsh & Co. still hasn't done a darn thing to tackle inflation.
Why not?
Mike says the Fed is stuck on a highway with no off-ramp. It's traveling in a direction it doesn't really want to go because the debt black hole is dominating the economy.
In this episode, Mike explains the 40 trillion reasons for the lack of action by the Warsh Fed so far, the ramifications if the Fed finally bites the bullet and raises rates, and why this puts gold and silver on an uphill highway with no off-ramp.
