Renowned economist and best-selling author Jim Rickards has issued a stark warning about the economic future, stating that what’s coming is worse than a recession. In a recent interview, Rickards emphasized that the global economy is facing a crisis that is not just an ordinary downturn, but rather a much more severe and potentially devastating situation.
Rickards, who has a track record of accurately predicting economic crises, pointed to several key factors that are contributing to the impending economic turmoil. He highlighted the massive levels of debt that have accumulated in both the public and private sectors, as well as the unprecedented levels of money printing by central banks around the world. These factors, Rickards argues, have created a perfect storm that is set to unleash a crisis of epic proportions.
One of the most alarming aspects of Rickards’ warning is his assertion that the upcoming economic turmoil will not be limited to a traditional recession. Rather, he believes that the current situation has the potential to lead to a full-blown depression, with far-reaching consequences for individuals, businesses, and entire economies.
So, what can be done to prepare for what Rickards sees as an inevitable economic catastrophe? According to him, it’s crucial to take the necessary steps to protect one’s wealth and assets. This means diversifying investments, holding physical gold and other precious metals, and reducing exposure to riskier assets such as stocks and bonds.
In addition to safeguarding personal finances, Rickards stressed the importance of political and economic reforms at the national and international levels. Without decisive action to address the root causes of the crisis, he warned, the situation will only worsen, leading to even greater social and economic upheaval.
While Rickards’ warning may sound dire, it is not without precedent. History is replete with examples of economic crises that have reshaped the world, and many economists and experts have warned about the dangers of unsustainable debt levels and excessive money printing. The key, according to Rickards, is to heed these warnings and take proactive steps to protect oneself and the broader economy.
As the global economy continues to grapple with the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and other systemic issues, it’s crucial to pay attention to voices like Jim Rickards who have a track record of accurately predicting economic crises. By taking heed of their warnings and being proactive in safeguarding personal wealth and advocating for sound economic policies, we can hopefully mitigate the worst effects of what’s coming.

Actually I believe the numbers were skewed to keep the current administration looking as good as possible for as long as possible. This "ain't over" yet! The government is already bankrupt, if you use the measurement against any other entity. Printing your way out is not a fix, and bankrupting the tax payers with impossible taxes, isn't going to fly either.
@goldcic Actually, when I review a variety of sources, the prospects are very bleak. Perhaps a bad recession but I am forced to lean in the direction of a Second Great Depression that may well surpass the original Great Depression. We are possibly looking at a worldwide event that could be years in length. Inflation and no work to be had will cause severe hardship. I hope it's all wrong but it doesn't look like it.
Jim is an idiot for believing the official data. According to them THERE WILL NEVER BE A RECESSION AGAIN, only the tent cities wil be growing exponentionally larger by day…
When we kick the economic can down the road, nothing of any consequence gets done to try and improve the economy. We have been doing this for decades. Each time we kick this can forward it gets heavier. The day is coming quickly now that when we try to kick the can, we will break our foot because the can is too heavy. That day is almost here. We will soon find out just how bad a job we have done. It's going to be very ugly.
