In this explosive interview, Martin Armstrong shares his latest outlook on inflation, stagflation, gold, silver, the US debt crisis, China, Trump, and the growing geopolitical risks shaping global markets. Armstrong explains why the current energy-driven inflation shock could become far worse than the 1970s, why Europe may face a prolonged economic downturn, whether the US dollar can remain the ultimate safe haven despite nearly $40 trillion in debt, and how war, capital flight, and political instability could trigger major market shifts. He also reveals his outlook for gold and silver prices, AI's impact on corporate profits, and what investors should watch next as Trump's China negotiations and Middle East tensions escalate.
