Learn More About Unlimited HFGM Global Macro ETF $HFGM: https://unlimitedetfs.com/hfgm In this episode, banking specialist Chris Whalen joins Jack to unpack the hidden risks within recent bank earnings, focusing heavily on the sector's exposure to private credit and non-depository financial institutions. Chris explains how the widespread use of off-balance-sheet special purpose vehicles obscures the true level of risk, warning that regional banks could face significant pain as troubled private credit debt is forced into equity. The conversation also explores the ongoing turmoil in commercial real estate, noting that while premium properties remain insulated, older buildings and specific markets like Chicago are suffering steep valuation discounts. Shifting to asset protection, Chris details his bullish stance on precious metals, highlighting gold as a crucial global monetary trade and silver as an industrial necessity currently facing acute supply shortages.
