Today, Steve Yang sits down with Francis Hunt — “The Market Sniper,” creator of the Hunt Volatility Funnel (HVF) Method — to unpack why he thinks we’ve entered a hyper-stagflation epoch, how debt and fiat debasement move in lockstep, and why gold’s pullbacks can be opportunities if you understand timeframes and hedging. We cover HVF risk management, positioning across gold/silver/miners, and practical hedges in USD/JPY and USD/KRW when the dollar firms.
