In this episode of MoneyMagpie Invest, Alasdair Macleod explains why today’s financial system may be approaching a breaking point - drawing parallels with the collapse of the Weimar Reichsmark and the explosive rise in gold that followed. The gold and silver markets are crashing, and investors are panicking. In this eye‑opening episode of MoneyMagpie Invest, Jasmine Birtles
sits down with London Stock Exchanges' Alasdair MacLeod to uncover the truth behind the turmoil. The core argument is stark:
👉 Fiat currencies rely on confidence and credit
👉 Governments are buried under unpayable debt
👉 When bubbles burst, central banks default to infinite QE
👉 And when that happens, currencies fall - while gold
rises
This isn’t about day-to-day volatility. It’s about whether the entire monetary system is being reset.
