There are very few investment professionals voicing concern about the Federal Reserve’s easy monetary policies nowadays. Most economists still believe the Fed will likely raise the Fed Funds interest rate in June, or at least by September. The financial media takes it as a given that the United States economic recovery remains relatively robust, while China’s economy seems to be on the verge of disaster.
Enter Stanley Druckenmiller, one of the most successful hedge fund managers of the past thirty years. He has made big waves in the past month after a transcript of a speech he gave at a private club became public. In the speech, he explained that he is concerned that the economic climate is starting to look eerily similar to 2004 and the lead-up to the financial crisis.

Peter Schiff just returned from a family vacation and starts his latest podcast by discussing his observations about Disney World. He goes on to review the latest economic data. Finally, Peter picks apart Paul Krugman’s latest commentary, which is largely a response to German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schauble’s rational, conservative economic advice.

The Daily Bell interviewed Peter Schiff last week and published the first half of their conversation yesterday. Peter explained why the United States economy isn’t recovering and why he blames the Federal Reserve.
Peter also answered a slew of other questions. Does Janet Yellen know that the Fed’s monetary policies have been destructive, or is she just very ignorant? Will the Federal Reserve raise interest rates soon, or will a dollar crisis force its hand? Why do US stocks continue to rise when American economic data remains so weak? Will the presidential race actually affect the economy and the Fed’s policies? Could Rand Paul make a difference as president?
