The Dollar is Failing and Your Money is Next

Sep 1, 2026 · 37m

Summary

ITM Trading’s Fernando Grijalva joins Taylor Kennney to explain why fiat currency fails as a store of value due to unsustainable debt and inflation. They argue that most investments are merely dollar-denominated derivatives, leaving investors vulnerable to a global financial reset. Grijalva advocates for physical gold as the only true money with intrinsic value, distinguishing it from paper gold and silver, which serves primarily industrial purposes.
