A blow-up doll economy (E1543)

In this episode of Keiser Report, Max and Stacy discuss the blow-up dolls and mannequins simulating activity at social distancing restaurants but helping to instill a creepy post-pandemic unease over the new normal. They compare that to our blow-up doll economy, where money printing also creates a creepy illusion of economic activity – one which the money velocity shows is all fake. In the second half, Max talks to Tyson Slocum of Public Citizen about the structural failures in the energy market which allowed for a negative oil price, and they discuss how the Saudis got played by retail ETF investors in America.

Keiser Report is a no holds barred look at the shocking scandals behind the global financial headlines. From the collusion between Wall Street and Capitol Hill to the latest banking crime wave, from bogus government economic statistics to rigged stock markets, nothing escapes the eye of Max Keiser, a former stockbroker, inventor of the virtual specialist technology and co-founder of the Hollywood Stock Exchange.
