Silver just detonated.
Kerry Lutz and Craig Hemke break down the explosive move that vaulted silver from the mid-$30s to almost $62, and why this breakout finally looks real. They get into the momentum shift, short covering, and the holiday-trading setup that let prices rip while the pros were off the desk. This market is waking up.
They dig into historical patterns, gold/silver ratios, and why the fourth quarter into early January is primed for upside. Craig explains the Black Friday surge, the liquidity gap, and how managed money chased the rally higher. The risks — and the opportunity.
From broken suppression efforts to shaky unallocated accounts, they lay out why dips are getting bought, why shorts are trapped, and why physical ownership matters more than ever. If silver's truly breaking its cage, this may be the opening move.

A fast, high-clarity breakdown of the Caribbean chessboard — and why Venezuela, Cuba, and Panama now sit at the center of a global power reset. Kerry Lutz maps out how Venezuela becomes the spark, Cuba the real prize, and Panama the strategic pivot point as China quietly expands influence and the U.S. recalibrates policy ahead of a new commodity supercycle. Kerry walks through how shifting alliances, failing media narratives, and a narrowing geopolitical window are setting up dramatic moves in energy, metals, and trade routes. From Trump's emerging doctrine to emergency oil stabilization, this briefing lays out why crude may calm while gold, silver, and copper prepare for their next surge. You'll hear why Cuba's vulnerability matters more than headlines suggest, how the Panama Canal factors into long-term U.S.–China friction, and where asymmetric opportunities may emerge — including overlooked plays in distressed Cuban debt. A sharp, 6-minute macro briefing for investors watching the next big shift in geopolitics, energy, and hard assets.

This was the week the 60-year silver suppression regime finally cracked. What started with low-liquidity chaos on Black Friday turned into a full-blown breakout on Cyber Monday, marking the first commercial signal failure in more than a decade — and the price action shows it. Silver ripped from the low $50s toward $60 in hours, sell walls vanished, algorithms froze, and shorts began to lose control as physical demand overwhelmed the paper market. Behind the scenes, industrial buyers have been quietly panic-stocking while capital drains out of public assets ahead of the 2026 ECM turn. And the people closest to the market? They've been loading up on physical silver for six months, anticipating this exact moment — the break between reality and the paper illusion. In this episode, Kerry explains why Black Friday acted like nitroglycerin under the suppression system, why Monday's surge confirms a structural failure, and how the physical market has already decoupled from paper pricing. He digs into Armstrong's ECM target for March 14, 2026, the three potential price paths from $90 to as high as $600 in extreme conditions, and why purchasing power can explode even in inflationary periods. This isn't just a rally — it's an escape event. The lid is off, the pressure is rising, and for the first time in decades, silver is trading like a free asset again.

Kerry Lutz and John Rubino break down the cracks appearing in the economy — and they aren't small. Layoffs are rising, consumer debt is hitting record highs, and defaults are climbing. Even cardboard box demand is falling, a subtle signal that spending is slowing. Petroleum consumption is down, partially due to the rise of electric vehicles, which is also impacting jobs in energy sectors. Car prices remain sky-high, leaving many buyers on the sidelines. Across the board, the economy is showing stress. In Las Vegas, the focus on wealthy visitors has inflated prices for everyday services, leaving the city emptier than you might expect, even on weekends. Meanwhile, the Southwest faces a worsening water crisis, which could spark conflicts between urban areas and agriculture. Rubino and Lutz also explore the volatility in AI stocks, likening the scene to the dot-com bubble, and discuss the urgency of resolving the ongoing government shutdown.
