James Grant: Interest Rates Need To Go MUCH Higher To Tame Inflation

Few people understand interest rates as well as James Grant.

It’s one of the reasons why he’s so respected on Wall Street by bulls and bears alike.

As Jim puts it: “It’s a wild time in money” right now.

In this video, originally aired at Wealthion’s online conference, Jim explains why today’s macro environment is so treacherous — and then offers up several assets he thinks today’s investor would do well to consider.
