- Most national currencies are being debased
- Demand for gold as a hedge is rising rapidly
- 2025 could see these established trends accelerate
I hope you enjoyed the holiday season – whatever you did to celebrate. After the dramatic, history-making events of 2024, we were all due for a well-deserved break.
I suspect there is going to be little if any rest for the wicked, however. As we enter 2025, in my opinion the world is in the most perilous state than at any time since at least the 1960s.
Back then, the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates tied to gold offered a stabilising foundation for the global monetary system. Today, we have no such anchor – quite the opposite.
The reality is that the international financial system stands on shaky ground. Government debts in developed nations are spiralling out of control, and now even emerging economies are being pulled into the same dangerous cycle.
Last October, at an exclusive Southbank event for Platinum members, my former colleague and trusted member of The Fleet Street Letter’s Global Intelligence Network, Alasdair Macleod, delivered a compelling presentation on what lies ahead for the global economy.
His insights weren’t just predictions – they were a clear-eyed assessment of the economic shifts already underway. And as 2025 approaches, some of those forecasts are edging closer to reality. Stay informed and see what could be coming next.
