Ex-Goldman CEO Blankfein says recession possibility is ‘very high risk factor
- Former Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein said he believes the economy is at risk of possibly going into a recession.
- Speaking on “Face the Nation” on CBS, Blankfein said a recession is “a very, very high risk factor.”
- “There’s a path. It’s a narrow path,” said Blankfein, who retired from Goldman Sachs several years ago and now holds the title of senior chairman.

1) Now that we are in a bear market, the economy will slow down and fall into severe recession, followed by massive layoffs. The Federal Reserve will be slow to react due to high inflation, which will cause prices to fall, including commodities and precious metals.

3) As all assets and commodities get obliterated because of deflation, there will be one last opportunity to buy precious metals discounted before governments worldwide engage in competitive debasing of their currencies and begin hyperinflating the debt away.

Today's investors believe the bailout was way back in 2008. They are oblivious to the fact that they've been bailed out for 14 years straight.
It pays to know when the bailout cycle is ending.
So you're not left holding the bag.
