Economist, market analyst, and President of Miles Franklin, Andy Schectman, returns to the Economic Review to discuss what he sees as growing misdirection across the financial media. Sarah and Andy examine the bond market and challenge the prevailing narrative that China’s reduced purchases of U.S. Treasuries are simply the result of internal economic distress. Schectman explains why he believes there may be much more happening beneath the surface and what changing behavior in the Treasury and bond markets could signal for the broader economy.

In today’s discussion, Sarah and Andy also examine the growing divide between Americans who own significant assets and those struggling with everyday expenses. While asset holders have largely remained insulated from economic pressures, they discuss why the financial reality for much of the population increasingly resembles a recession as household expenses continue to rise and economic pressures mount.

Lastly, the conversation returns to silver and why Schectman believes the metal could be entering a unique period in its history. They examine the combination of monetary demand, growing industrial use, supply constraints, and changing global financial conditions—and why Andy believes these forces could create significant upside potential for silver.
