When VRIC asked me to do a "panel" interview with TF Metals Report's Craig Hemke, I wasn't sure it was a good idea. We look at some issues concerning market manipulation differently. But then, I thought, what the heck; it could be entertaining. Oddly enough, even though manipulation came up in the interview, no weapons were drawn—nor even any fists brandished.

We covered the macro, of course, and specific headwinds and tailwinds for monetary metals: gold and silver. I hope you find the conversation entertaining and useful.
