In this appearance on the Flyover Conservatives Show, Dr. Kirk Elliott breaks down Iran's threat to block the Strait of Hormuz, the resulting pressure on oil prices, and what it could mean for the broader global economy. He explains his view that the international monetary system rests on collateral rather than currencies alone, and describes how gold, silver, banking stress, and geopolitical volatility are all connected. Elliott also considers why traditional banks may be preparing for a significant shift as hard assets, real money, and stablecoins move closer to the center of the financial conversation. The discussion frames precious metals as one way families can pursue diversification amid geopolitical and economic uncertainty. He encourages viewers who want to learn more to schedule a consultation with the KEPM team.
