Mike Maloney: “No Matter What the Fed Does, the Precious Metals Are Going North!”

Mike Maloney thinks silver is going to triple digits, the Fed will print more, and gold will surge higher as a result. Hard assets my friends, this is the way. Mike doesn’t just speak the language, he walks the talk. His 900-acre farming operation in Puerto Rico is a testament to that.

I had a chance to sit down with the legendary Mike Maloney at the Limitless Expo 2025 in Dallas, hosted by Ken McElroy and Tarl Yarber.

In what will be no surprise to anyone familiar with Maloney’s truly excellent Hidden Secrets of Money series, he knows what’s coming next: more Fed printing!

The Fed really doesn’t have a choice. It’s either print more or sit back and watch everything implode.

What this probably means is another doubling or tripling of the Fed’s ‘balance sheet,’ which means another $6 to $12 trillion printed up and dumped into the ““markets.””

And what that means is more inflation, and higher prices for everything, but especially silver and gold. Why those two precious metals? Because of immense buying pressure from China (silver & gold) as well as central banks across the world (gold).

Moreover, there are serious signs that the paper price suppression games of the West are about out of runway. For seven years running, silver has been in a serious supply deficit relative to demand. Above-ground stocks are diminishing. Despite this, the Comex paper gamers keep dumping more and more paper contracts onto the market to rig the price lower.

Tick, tock.

Retail investors in the US and Europe remain woefully out of the game, especially compared to China and India, where buying pressure for both silver and gold remains quite strong.

Meanwhile, the US stock market is in a historic bubble, with the Buffett Indicator at 208% of U.S. GDP, mainly driven by a few tech giants like Nvidia. A significant correction is likely, exacerbated by overvalued equities and potential AI-driven disruptions.

A “post-truth, post-trust” world is emerging, with declining faith in institutions (e.g., CDC, justice system) and a potential “Fourth Turning” crisis which may well culminate in a rapid loss of trust in fiat currency.

Finally, Mike and I discussed his amazing farming venture, a 900-acre farm in Puerto Rico, leveraging high-altitude conditions to grow competitive crops with tax exemptions and grants. It’s a really cool story and a project I strongly support, naturally.

Mike’s advice is that Investors should remain defensive, diversify into tangible assets like precious metals and land, and stay informed. Maloney’s YouTube channel (search “Hidden Secrets of Money”) and his farm’s website (FFPR.Farm) are excellent resources.
