The Debasement Trade
The cracks in the foundations of money are becoming harder to ignore. Persistent deficits, rising debt, and central bank behavior are quietly reshaping how investors think about preservation and risk.
Book • 2026
James Lavish's 'The Debasement Trade' explores the ongoing debasement of fiat currencies since the US abandoned the gold standard in 1971, driven by exploding money supply, persistent deficits, and structural inflation.
The report highlights how central banks are accumulating gold amid declining confidence in fiat, positioning scarce assets like Bitcoin and gold as key hedges in this new monetary regime.
Lavish warns of financial repression and policy incentives that make debasement permanent, urging investors to own hard assets to avoid falling behind.
