Natural Resource Stocks host Andy Millette sits down with Professor Steve Hanke of Johns Hopkins University to cut through the “de-dollarization” hype and explain how formal dollarization and orthodox currency boards can stabilize emerging markets.

He also dives into the stablecoin connection, the U.S. strategic angle in Latin America, and why he still targets a secular gold peak around $6 000 an ounce. Key Topics
