May RAGE Gauge: Money Supply Meltdown

May 11, 2023 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

My RAGE Gauge is in, and it isn’t good. All month Your Survival Guy monitors risk in America, and there’s one that far outweighs the others. That’s a miscalculation by the Federal Reserve. For years the Fed has jumped from one unprecedented policy to another, reacting to each move of the market like it’s putting a candle out with a firehose. Now the Fed is driving up rates and, for the first time in history, creating a sustained decline in the M2 money supply.

 

You’ve seen what’s going on in the banking system. The Fed’s moves are uncovering its bad actors. The risk is that there are too many of them. That’s one reason Your Survival Guy wants you to separate your banking from your investments.

Action Line: This sort of unprecedented policy swing is a big risk to America and one of the many reasons my RAGE Gauge is pegged at its maximum. Click here to subscribe to my monthly RAGE Gauge alert.

E.J. plays a Yamaha Recording Custom drum set with Zilldjian cymbals. His first drum set was a 5-piece Slingerland with Zildjians. He grew-up worshiping Neil Peart (RIP) of the band Rush, and loves the song Tom Sawyer—the name of his family’s boat, a Grady-White Canyon 306. He grew up in Mattapoisett, MA, an idyllic small town on the water near Cape Cod. He spends time in Newport, RI and Bartlett, NH—both as far away from Wall Street as one could mentally get.
