16/07/2026 | 14 mins.Is the U.S. stock market more overvalued than at any point in the last 150 years—except for 1927? Economist Mark Thornton, Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute, believes today's extreme valuations, rising leverage, and mounting fiscal pressures are creating the conditions for a major market reckoning.
In this conversation with Maggie Lake, Thornton explains why he sees elevated risks for equities, why he believes gold and silver may have already found a bottom despite recent weakness, and how shifting interest rate expectations, a weakening dollar, and growing government deficits could trigger a powerful rotation into precious metals. He also shares his controversial view on the Federal Reserve's true priorities and what investors should watch as markets navigate an increasingly uncertain macro environment.
