The Federal Reserve just cut interest rates and ended balance sheet reduction, and it executed this "monetary easing" in the face of stubbornly high price inflation.
Why?!
In a sane world, the central bank would be holding rates higher to strangle inflation once and for all. It might even be hiking rates.
But we don’t live in a sane world. We live in a world with a massive debt black hole that is sucking the entire economy into it.

No Solutions, Just Trade-Offs
2025-09-24
Thomas Sowell wrote, "There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs.”
This perfectly describes why the Fed cut rates last week despite lamenting "somewhat elevated" inflation.
In this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey explains the trade-offs facing the central bankers, why they made the decision they did, and how it will impact the gold and silver markets.
This week, Mike also shares some of the things he saw on his "field trip" to the Money Metals’ offices and bullion depository last week.

2025-09-17

In this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey engages in some myth- busting. He exposes the fallacies in six myths that many people believe about the precious metals and the economy.

1. Silver has underperformed. 2. Tariffs can pay for government, and Trump can end the income tax. 3. Owning a gold-backed ETF is "the same" as owning physical gold. 4. Monetary policy is currently tight. 5. Gold is the best-performing precious metal this year. 6. Gold jewelry is a good investment (in the U.S.).

The World Buys Gold as Americans Sit on the Sidelines
2025-08-06
A big increase in investment demand for physical gold and silver helped drive overall demand higher through the first half of the year, but Americans, by and large, sat out the big rally. In fact, Americans tended to sell their gold bars and coins.

Mike also discusses the job number fiasco, pointing out that the government has a long history of revising job numbers lower.
