Gold and silver didn’t surge 70–150% last year because of inflation fears. Something deeper is breaking beneath the surface.

Chris Casey of Windrock Wealth Management joins Maggie Lake to explain why smart money is increasingly focused on fiscal solvency risk. With U.S. debt approaching $40 trillion, long-term bond yields rising, and the possibility of renewed quantitative easing in 2026, markets may be signaling a loss of confidence in Western financial systems.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Chris shares his market predictions for 2026, breaking down why the next Fed chair may not matter and how rising geopolitical tensions—from Greenland to Ukraine—are colliding with legislative gridlock at home in the US. He also discusses where opportunity still exists, including AI, energy, and the strategic role of cash as volatility builds.
