Jaime discusses 2020, the elections, and why the world needs a monetary reset. Whoever wins the election will have the job of negotiating with the world. Canada is making many stupid decisions around energy and the economy. Globally, the consequences are becoming evident from all the money printing.

Language can change what we think and control narratives. There are consequences as things become more polarized and cautions that populist waves are often unpredictable. It seems we are living through a fourth turning.

Central banks today are the real problem, and today, we are already beyond the end of the road. There is a good chance of a central bank blow-up this year or the next. There are too many issues, and these debts have to be reset, or there will be no economic growth.

Copper is the global barometer for economic activity because it is hard to manipulate. Coper prices are moving higher, and he believes it is tracking monetary devaluation.

He discusses precious metals manipulation and how it is done through massive paper dumps to control the price. The consequence of these actions is that soon they will only be able to slow the rise but won't stop it.

Producers have incredible potential and will provide a lot of leverage in this environment. He's betting that his portfolio of producers will outperform.

Jaime argues that blockchain is a digital currency system that can't be controlled and eventually will overwhelm the banker's control of gold. Before too long, we won't need the banks. Gold is the one constant that will endure and remain the ultimate form of money. He says, "Follow the yellow brick road."
