Summary
Markets are under pressure, and cracks are starting to show. In this live discussion, Kerry Lutz and Adam Taggart dive into the forces quietly stressing the system—from soaring oil prices to hidden strains in private credit. Mid‑sized "zombie" firms may be most at risk, and opaque securitization practices are leaking risk into public markets. They break down precious metals, debating whether silver's sharp moves undermine the long-term bullish case. Adam argues that unprecedented physical demand, central bank purchases, and industrial needs set this cycle apart from 1980 and 2011, while also highlighting selective entry opportunities amid volatility. The conversation closes on AI, where rapid deployment across government and industry is exposing inefficiencies and threatening white-collar jobs faster than repurposing paths can catch up. Listeners get a clear picture of the intersecting risks shaping markets today—and why the system may be more fragile than it appears. Tune in to see why these forces could shake markets—and what you can do now.
