- The Coming Precious Metals Supercycle
In this interview on the Financial Survival Network , host Kerry Lutz speaks with Dana Samuelson, CEO of American Gold Exchange to assess the outlook for precious metals, fiat currency, and alternative assets following a major market run-up. Samuelson explains that gold and silver have entered a healthy consolidation phase—with firm price floors around $3,950 for gold and $55 for silver—after global demand, geopolitical conflict, and tariff disruptions previously triggered sharp rallies. While rising Treasury yields and inflation pressure prices in the near term, Samuelson argues that runaway…
- Democrats Win Big. Gold Breaks $4,000. And the Debt Clock Doesn’t Even Blink.
By Kerry Lutz | Financial Survival Network | November 4, 2026 The Democrats delivered a spectacular electoral beating to Republicans yesterday, capturing control of the Senate and moving toward a House majority. Political commentators will spend the next several weeks dissecting the results, assigning blame, claiming mandates and explaining what it all means for the 2028 presidential election. Some will call it a historic realignment, while others will insist it’s merely a temporary setback. Frankly, I have more important things to watch. Like gold climbing back above $4,000 an ounce, silver…
- The Silver Smash: A Little Too Coincidental to Be a Coincidence
Gold gets hammered. Silver gets massacred. Bitcoin gets crushed. Wall Street calls it forced liquidation. But what if the real objective is to make investors terrified of leaving the financial system? November 3, 2026 Here we go again. As of early Tuesday morning, silver was trading around $48.82 an ounce, down another 3.38% on the day. Gold was near $3,904, down another 1%. Bitcoin was struggling in the $76,500–$77,000 range. And the financial press was once again explaining why the very assets people purchase to protect themselves against monetary and financial instability were behaving as…
- When They Hammer Silver the Trouble Starts
Something peculiar happens whenever the financial system starts approaching another one of its periodic near-death experiences. Gold gets hammered. Silver gets absolutely slaughtered. The financial press dutifully explains that investors are worried about interest rates, the dollar, inflation, deflation, or whatever economic statistic happens to be convenient that morning. And millions of investors are left wondering why the assets they purchased to protect themselves against financial calamity are behaving as though the calamity has already been canceled. I’ve watched this movie enough times…
- The 25 Best Airport Hotel Hacks Around the World
Most travelers treat airport arrivals and departures like a mandatory punishment. They follow the signs, join the traffic, fight for a space at the curb and hope an airport cop doesn’t start blowing his whistle before they’ve unloaded the luggage. I’ve spent decades traveling around the world, and I’ve learned that the obvious route isn’t necessarily the best one. At certain airports, the hotel has a separate entrance and connects to the terminal through a walkway, tunnel, skybridge or airport train. You can sometimes avoid the passenger curb altogether, without paying for a hotel room. I…

- The Airport Hotel Hack: How I Beat Airport Traffic Without Booking a Room
One of my favorite travel secrets costs absolutely nothing. And few travelers even know it exists. There are few experiences more aggravating than trying to get into a major airport during rush hour. You’ve allowed plenty of time, your flight is on schedule, and everything is going beautifully until you get within a mile of the terminal. Suddenly, you’re staring at an endless procession of brake lights, watching your departure time creep closer while a thousand other drivers attempt to squeeze into the same three lanes. At JFK, the Van Wyck Expressway can make you question every decision…
- Silver Keeps Getting Hit. Here’s Why. And Here’s When It Stops.
If you only looked at the headlines, you would think silver had committed some kind of crime. It gets sold on good news. It gets sold on bad news. It gets sold when inflation is hot, and then it gets sold again when recession fears start making the rounds. For a market that is supposedly in structural deficit, silver has an amazing talent for acting like the world’s least loved asset. And with prices getting hammered repeatedly, even the most committed silver bulls are starting to wonder whether something fundamental has changed. But that is exactly why you need to understand what’s really…
- When the Money Dies, the Dictatorship Follows
It’s been a while since we last examined what’s happening in Cuba and Iran. Judging by developments over the past several weeks, we have some catching up to do. Both countries are experiencing something far more consequential than another round of economic hardship. Their currencies are disintegrating, essential infrastructure is failing, and the financial arrangements that have kept their ruling elites in power for decades are coming under extraordinary pressure. We may be witnessing the early stages of something that sanctions, diplomacy, and military threats have repeatedly failed to…

- Fed Trapped, Drone Warfare, Gold Boom - John Rubino
In this episode of the Financial Survival Network , host Kerry Lutz sits down with financial commentator John Rubino to unpack the compounding pressures facing the global economy. The discussion explores how surging interest rates—highlighted by the 10-year Treasury yield crossing 5%—are placing the Federal Reserve and Treasury in a difficult trap: lowering rates risks triggering persistent inflation, while keeping them high destabilizes the bond market and threatens to freeze housing affordability. The pair also examines global supply-chain vulnerabilities, rising energy transport costs…
- THE WHITE ELEPHANT EATING AWAY AT YOUR PORTFOLIO
After several trip around Asia, and I have to tell you, the place is full of economic lessons. Some of them are more obvious than others. But perhaps the most important one comes from an unlikely source: the elephant. That enormous, lovable, four-legged eating machine may be the perfect metaphor for what Washington is doing to your your accumulated wealth and of course your retirement savings.

We’re talking bananas, sugarcane, grasses, leaves and just about anything else growing within…
