As 2025 comes to a close, host Dennis Tubbergen delivers a clear-eyed and provocative economic forecast for 2026. In this episode of RLA Radio, Dennis explains why ongoing U.S. dollar devaluation is inevitable, how massive government debt refinancing will pressure the Federal Reserve to resume easy-money policies, and why interest rates may continue rising despite Fed rate cuts. He explores the growing divide between two U.S. economies, challenges official inflation metrics using real-world cost comparisons, and outlines why inflation in nominal terms may mask deflation in real terms when assets are priced in gold. Dennis also warns of an increasingly stagflationary environment ahead and shares what investors should consider as the economy moves into a critical turning point in 2026.
Dennis Tubbergen has been working in the financial services industry for over thirty years. He is the CEO of PLP Advisors, a registered investment advisory company, and the host of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio. Dennis has authored numerous books for financial advisors and consumers, five of which have been #1 best-sellers on Amazon.
