About this episode
In this episode, Nik is joined by veteran investor Craig Shapiro to discuss the US Treasury debt market and what it means for the global monetary system, gold, and bitcoin. Craig explains what to look for during next week's FOMC meeting and Treasury refunding announcement, and how the balance between Treasury bills and coupons affects risk markets. He also dissects double speak out of the Fed on financial conditions and provides an epic rant on the case for bitcoin in today's global setting.
