2025-12-15 Silver Awakens, Markets Tremble: Michael Oliver on the Coming Metals Breakout and Financial Reset

Author: Dennis Tubbergen December 15, 2025 Duration: 30:56
Is silver on the verge of a historic breakout—and are financial markets approaching a major reset? In this episode of the Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio Program, host Dennis Tubbergen welcomes returning guest Michael Oliver, founder of Momentum Structural Analysis, for a deep-dive into silver prices, gold trends, and looming stock market risks. Oliver explains why silver may be entering a parabolic phase, how the Dow-to-gold ratio signals trouble for equities, and why precious metals often move first ahead of major economic shifts. The discussion also explores global central bank behavior, rising government debt, stagflation risk, and the growing case for hard assets like gold, silver, and commodities in today’s unstable monetary environment. If you’re searching for insights on silver price forecasts, gold vs. stocks, market crashes, inflation protection, central bank policy, or portfolio diversification, this episode delivers expert analysis you won’t want to miss. Michael Oliver has been studying markets for over four decades, but it was the 1987 stock market crash that became his “aha!” moment and converted him to what he calls “momentum structural analysis.” Mr. Oliver is the CEO of Momentum Structural Analysis LLC based in Greensboro, North Carolina. He is also the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism. Since 1992 Momentum Structural Analysis has provided unique technical research to the financial industry - banks, RIAs, hedge funds, and mutual funds - as well as to individual investors.
