Best of Jim Grant on Money
Nice compilation of clips featuring the founder of Grant’s Interest Rate Observer. He talks Fed, monetary policy, the gold standard, and more. Bonus: Margaret Brennan is the interviewer in 2 clips.
Jim Grant: Inflation Will Hit Suddenly
Not a new video, but one worth watching if you haven’t yet. Mr. Grant, of Grant’s Interest Rate Observer, is one of the sharpest independent economists around. Inflation hitting suddenly quote at 16:20 (hat tip reader brian).
Weimar Germany may be a bit of an extreme example to use, but it does demonstrate the point rather well … (note that the x-axis is in months, not years).
More Jim Rogers: ECB Will Likely Start Printing
Another great interview with Jim Rogers, one of the few truth-tellers who continues to get MSM air time. Here he talks with Larry Kudlow, who brings up an important issue — whether the EU will eventually follow the Federal Reserve in their currency devaluation strategy. Other topics discussed: Fed lies, M2 money supply exploding, looming (potentially disastrous) global inflation.
I took advantage of the recent dip in silver prices, bought more. There are few things I want to own today more than gold & silver bullion. Global printing just getting ramped up. Bad as things are today, I believe this is the calm before the storm.

Jim Rogers on the Latest US-China Trade War Spat
U.S. politicians from both sides of the aisle are lining up to support possible trade sanctions and tariffs on China. Apparently the enthralled ignorami we call our “representatives” are reacting to China’s currency manipulation (as if Tim G. & the gang are helpless bystanders in the global currency wars).
Rogers warns against such economic blunders, noting “We had a trade war in the 1930′s, it led to the Great Depression.”
Shortly after that bludgeoning remark, Rogers adds “We already have small signs of trade wars breaking out in Brazil, France, other places, now America. This could be very dangerous in the end.”
