He explains why energy prices may surge, bond yields could rise sharply, and why he believes U.S. equities are in a dangerous bubble. Macleod outlines how China may respond not militarily, but financially, potentially accelerating the end of dollar dominance. He also discusses why precious metals were hit initially and why he expects a dramatic reversal.
