He argues the Fed is trapped — raising rates aggressively would trigger a financial collapse worse than 2008, so instead inflation will spiral into double or even triple digits, producing what he calls an \"inflationary depression.\" Schiff sees gold, silver, and foreign stocks as the plays of the decade, warns that crypto investors are \"betting on the wrong horse,\" and predicts a dollar and sovereign debt crisis that could begin overnight in China's time zone. He closes with cautious optimism that the coming crisis could ultimately serve as a catalyst for a return to free-market principles.
