GOLD at $30,000, China Won’t Accept it, Economic Demolition Just Started | David Collum

Renowned market commentator and Cornell professor Dave Collum joins us for an unfiltered, no-holds-barred conversation on the forces tearing through the global economy. From the deliberate demolition of economic structures to the speculative insanity around AI and private equity, Dave breaks down why he believes we’re living in a financial illusion, and what comes next. We cover distorted markets, fake job booms, recession denial, and the misunderstood gold narrative. It’s punchy, provocative, and packed with hard truths every investor should hear.
