Coyote" moment.In this Executive Briefing, recorded on 2026/01/18, I cut through the noise to expose the critical data that the government and Wall Street are ignoring: from jobs data revised down by 200% to a stock market currently in "Stage 4" (The Liquidity Illusion). I also break down why the AI Bubble is flashing red signals (from Nvidia to OpenAI) and the massive systemic risk building in the silver market.I share my specific outlook for the next 3-6 months, including the potential catalysts for a -20% to -40% correction, and my strategy for Gold, Silver, and Bitcoin in this high-risk environment.In this podcast, you will learn:The Macro Lie: How official jobs data swung from +108k to -173k (and why you can't trust it).The Stock Market Trap: Why we are in "Stage 4" of a crash and the similarities to 47 days before 1929.
