Weekend Show – Jeff Christian & Josef Schachter – Gold & Oil Outlook, Major Market Turns
This week’s Weekend Show shifts the lens back to the core pillars of asset-based investing: Precious Metals and Energy. We explore the disconnect between market sentiment and physical reality, moving from the technical nuances of silver supply deficits to the high-stakes geopolitical maneuvers in the Strait of Hormuz. Our guests analyze why “scarcity narratives” often miss the mark and how investors can find the “growth wedge” in an energy sector bracing for a volatile summer.
- Segment 1 & 2 – Jeff Christian, Managing Partner at the CPM Group, discusses the current and future outlook for precious metals through the end of this year. Jeff also provides a critical analysis of the Silver Institute’s deficit data and examines the strategic gold maneuvers by central banks, specifically addressing recent activities in Turkey and France.

- Segment 3 & 4 – Josef Schachter, founder and editor of the Schachter Energy Report, outlines the shifting dynamics of the Middle East and its impact on global energy markets. Josef analyzes the potential for oil prices to reach new highs or stabilize near $80 based on geopolitical resolutions, while providing specific equity recommendations for both conservative and entrepreneurial investors in the oil and natural gas sectors.

DT, That man’s been selling ‘Socrates AI’—which looks suspiciously like Visual Basic duct‑taped to a horoscope—for decades. If that’s the cutting‑edge machine intelligence guiding your trades, then God help you… or at least help your account balance.
CaliJoe, you are a funny guy! Do you like George Carlin, he’s been dead for years but most of his comedic video’s are more relevant now than they were when he was alive, and they were Dyno-mite when he was still with us.
I don’t want to mention my account balance since HydroGraph! LOL! DT 😊🎉😍
Hey DT. When ever I need a reset I pull up Carlin! He was ahead of his time, and at the end of the day he knew the world was on fire no matter what geological area you call home!
Hi Rod, Ditto, Agreed! DT

Ponzi Top?
The Utah Data Center was one of the first popularized. Now they appear all over in various stages of build out. Their primary raison d’être is to provide computing power for various forms of Artificial Intelligence.
The Google search engine now includes AI, which is very useful for simple research and can even stretch into deeper dives. However, its near instantaneous feedback is not necessary for most people. A delay of a few seconds would not be a real inconvenience. This could mean that the large number of Data Centers under construction are not critically necessary, and that something akin to Hegel’s bad infinity has been unfolding – a very lucrative one for insiders.
Water, power, clean air, and structural stability are required for the successful operation of every Data Center, and also for its initial construction. These are rarely available in abundance, and never come cheaply. For many reasons there may be a slowdown in the Tech Sector soon. Some say it’s already underway.

This table gauges Trend Purity on a daily basis. The increase into April 17th option expiration is obvious. The last Sector downturn took place on February 25th, from lower levels. The gap laden heights reached Friday will likely correct soon, possibly precipitously. BDC
Hi BDC, There was a huge Data Center in Dubai that they spent $30 billion to build. Dubai wanted to become a new world financial center, only a hypersonic missile probably costing around $2 million from Iran took it offline. Technology has changed the way the World operates in so many ways. DT
Our technology is very good at advancing mechanical, military, and industrial applications but it is woefully inadequate when it works on social issues. Maybe that is by design. Our species is very violent we like to fight wars to settle issues. But advanced civilizations will only exist if they abandon the use of physical force, because the technology for destruction outweighs our species ability to use reason.
If there are more advanced societies from other worlds and they have come here they must be very scared of the way we settle conflicts. DT

Martin Armstrong say’s money is flowing out of Europe into The US and Singapore. WHY! Because European governments are talking about War. He fears that they will restrict capital from leaving Europe by instituting a CBDC. So the smart money moves where it is loved. It is moving out of Europe into the US stock market and hard assets in the US as well as Gold and Silver. That is why Gold and Silver and The US stock market are going up at the same time. Like he points out The US is unlikely to be attacked and they still hold The World’s Reserve Currency so they can’t impose restrictions on their own money. That is what Armstrong’s worldwide company does they follow money flows by charting what has happened during similar times in history. DT
