Michael Howell warns that the global financial system is approaching a breaking point, not from a recession, but from a massive mismatch between debt and liquidity. As the U.S. and other governments try to roll over trillions in short-term debt at rising interest rates, the quiet result is monetary inflation.

In this explosive interview with James Connor, Howell explains why 5% bond yields are the new normal, why the 60/40 portfolio model is obsolete, and why China, not just the Fed, may be driving the gold bull market. He warns that global bond markets are flashing danger, and the coming 2026–2028 refinancing cliff could trigger the next big crisis.

Key Topics:

• Why bond yields are rising globally, and what that means for markets

• The most overlooked metric: debt-to-liquidity, not debt-to-GDP

• How governments are quietly monetizing deficits, risking long-term damage

• Why China’s liquidity surge may be fueling the gold and Bitcoin rally

• The real reason traditional portfolios won’t survive this macro regime
