Bob Kudla – Bitcoin/Gold Ready To Make New Moves, The Entire Plan Revolves Around Removing The [CB]
Bob is the created and owner of Trade Genius Academy. Bob also does a podcast on YouTube which is called Trade Genius. Germany's industrial backbone is buckling under the weight of soaring energy costs and a protracted manufacturing slump, exacerbating the nation's economic woes as factories shutter and jobs flee to cheaper shores. Chemical producers, for instance, cite skyrocketing energy expenses as the primary culprit for relocating operations to China, where costs are far more predictable and affordable, leaving behind a trail of idle plants and lost competitiveness in Europe. This comes amid the latest HCOB Manufacturing PMI reading of 49.6 for October, a marginal uptick from September but still firmly in contraction territory below the 50 threshold, signaling persistent output declines, weakened new orders, and employment cuts across key sectors like autos and machinery. With household energy bills already among the world's highest—rivaling those in Ireland and Italy—Berlin's green energy pivot and nuclear phase-out have only amplified the pain, turning what was once Europe's manufacturing powerhouse into a cautionary tale of policy missteps fueling deindustrialization.
Meanwhile, amid this fiat-fueled turmoil, gold and Bitcoin are surging to unprecedented peaks, underscoring a global flight to hard assets as trust in central banks erodes. Bitcoin shattered its prior record, climbing above $109,000 while gold and silver notched fresh all-time highs, drawing parallels to Satoshi Nakamoto's visionary "Bit Gold" precursor that blended digital scarcity with precious metal reliability. This rally coincides with mounting calls to dismantle the Federal Reserve entirely, viewing it as the root of endless debt spirals and inflationary theft—proponents argue abolishing the central bank, ending its unconstitutional money-printing monopoly, and returning to sound money backed by gold or competing currencies would restore fiscal sanity and curb the very imbalances driving these asset booms. As the Fed signals an end to quantitative tightening in December, whispers of outright elimination gain traction in liberty-minded circles, positioning crypto and bullion not as speculations, but as bulwarks against a system teetering on collapse.

Hi, and welcome to the X22 Report Spotlight.
Today we have a returning guest, Bob Goodluck.
Bob is the creator and owner of TradeGeniusAcademy.com.
And I am very happy to have Bob back on the X22 Report.
Spotlight, Bob.
Welcome back to the spotlight.
Hey, Dave, thanks for having me.
Thanks for allowing me to skip for a little vacay last month.
Yeah, I heard you had a lot of fun out there.
But let's start off with Germany because it looks like Germany is having a very tough time.
I know we talked about Germany in the past, but it seems like they downed their, I think, their last cooling tower of a nuclear power plant.
And it seems like they're paying a lot for energy.
Manufacturing is not doing that great.
What's your take on what's happening with Germany?
I don't know.
You know, it's, you know, they lost their entire petrochemical industry.
Porsche for the first time has reported a loss since they became a public company.
I don't know how many decades ago.
And I don't, well, I think it's, they've been on suicide watch for a while, but the AFD now has become the number one party in Germany.
So I guess at some point they'll wrestle control away from the coalition and that may rescue Germany.
But I really don't understand the logic at all.
I really, I don't know how people could just be sitting back and saying this is a great idea for our country to become a, you know, basically a declining German population with a no manufacturing base.
I don't know how they are going to be able to pay for all the services that they provide.
I mean, they literally are becoming just like one big Disneyland.
That's it.
So do you think with what's happening out there?
I mean, it looks like, I mean, let me just back up a little bit.
It looks like they're following the whole new, the Green News scam.
And it looks like they haven't backed off of the Green News scam.
And I think, you know, as they get rid of their energy, as I mean, you need energy to have manufacturing.
You can't manufacture anything without energy.
And if your energy is, you know, if it becomes more and more expensive, manufacturing is going to go up.
So, I mean, it seems like they're doing it to themselves.
And it looks like they're following the Green News scam.
Do you think this is going to be?
I don't know.
I mean, look, there's an axiom.
If you can't provide energy internally and you can't provide food internally domestically, you're a vassal or a failed state.
And I think Germany is opted for one of those two.
I don't understand it.
You know, the foreign trade minister, the foreign minister wanted to go to China to discuss the chips that the Chinese have controlled on exports based on what happened with the Dutch.
And the Chinese said, ah, nobody can see you.
I mean, they would never do that to an American.
They wouldn't dare.
And they just dismissed Germany, which is really a shame because what we had going on here was a round robin, right?
So Germany made all the machine part, the machining equipment and the machining tools.
And they sold to China.
And China turned around and stole all of that technology and basically competed with Germany for that equipment.
And they turned around and then sell their end goods to the United States.
And it just became this big circle.
And now that's broken and Germany can't, they can't write the ship.
It's just, it's just amazing to me that, and, you know, I'm German heritage.
I mean, I'm just simply, I'm simply sick to my stomach.
You know, it's funny when I look at this.
It looks like with the Green News scam and what they were trying to do is move or destroy the energy and the manufacturing plants, not just in Germany, but throughout Europe.
And China wasn't really involved in the Green News scam.
I mean, they have tons of coal fire plans.
They weren't backing off the energy because they need the energy for production.
So it looks like, to me personally, it looks like they were trying to shift everything and destroy Europe's manufacturing base and even the United States manufacturing base all at the same time and shifting it maybe to China.
No, I totally agree.
I think I was thinking that last night, too.
That's why Trump stood up.
I mean, who knows?
Between China and the Middle East, they de-industrialize their potential enemies.
And so they just turn us into vassal states.
That's my new word now because it's going back to going back to the Middle Ages again, where the people are the serfs on the land.
And then you have the kingdoms and you have the vassals.
And I think that's what China was trying to do.
I mean, look, if I was China, it's a really smart move on their part, right?
You know, eliminate all your competition.
Everybody has to come to you.
And they can't generate war against you because they don't have the manufacturing base to compete against your industrial capacity like the United States in World War II.
Right.
Do you think this will affect the European nations?
Because Germany was the powerhouse of the EU.
And now with Germany struggling, will this hurt the EU?
Will this push them into a recession?
Oh, yeah, for sure.
Well, you know, it's been always the dream of France and England to neuter Germany, right?
So I wouldn't just count on, you know, this is just a China thing.
The French and the English are delighted, right?
But I think what's happening here is that you're going to see Germany come roaring back.
If you look at what's happening here, you know, Sweden went right.
Finland went right.
Poland went right.
Hungary went right.
Italy went right.
Romania would be right, except that they're fighting, you know, basically election fraud over there.
France is likely to go right and Germany is likely to go right.
So I think the whole thing is shifting.
And Netherlands went right.
So I think what we're going to have is we're going to have a boomerang effect, you know, like what's happening in the United States, but a little bit more fragmented in Germany.
And I think you're going to see a lot of right-wing governments up there.
And if you notice, I know it's not kind of one of the thing on our agenda today, but Argentina just re-elected Malawi.
I guess it was in a landslide.
So I think people in general have seen what the left wants to do or the globalists want to do.
And to the extent that they can reject it, they're rejecting it.
Right now, I mean, when you talk about like France, you still have Macron.
I mean, he's like, his approval rating is like down in the dirt.
The same thing with MERS in Germany, the same thing with Starmer in the UK.
And yes, we see the shift.
And I feel like they're trying to stop it any way they possibly can.
I guess this is why they keep saying that with the AFD party, those individuals, I mean, how many people died?
They're saying it's suicide.
It feels like they're hit jobs to me.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
Look, and they try to pass all these laws, like Brazil passing a hate crime law.
They're doing everything they can to stay in power.
But, you know, I think, to be honest with you, Dave, I think these people are all going to get swept away.
And, you know, once you get the hardworking people aware and engaged, you can't stop it.
Right.
And I think that's what happened here in America.
You know, Canada's next on the chopping block, too.
Absolutely.
You know, I think we're going to talk about Canada a little bit.
But I mean, that Doug Ford, he just stepped into a pile of manure.
I feel like Doug Ford continually does this.
I remember him going back to the beginning with the tariffs and he said, oh, we're going to shut down electric.
We're going to make the people of America pay.
That didn't really work out well for Canada at all.
It never works out well for Canada.
Not when your whole country is a GDP of Montana.
Yeah.
Maybe they will become the 51st state when you really start to when you start to really think about it.
That'd be funny.
I know a lot of Canadians are probably pretty happy with it.
So, I mean, with everything that's happening across the world with economy and everything like that, gold, I mean, really shot up.
I mean, it was really moving.
I mean, it was over 4,300 and it's backed down a little bit.
But where do you see gold going?
I mean, why do you think it reversed and went a little bit lower?
Think it's going to go higher in the future?
Yeah, I mean, look, there's a thing out there called the debasement trade.
I'm sure you've heard that word.
That, you know, China's been buying gold, I think, just because they may go bankrupt.
So I think they've been a big buyer of gold.
Everybody kind of piled onto that.
And they use this word, the debasement trade, because everybody's so desperate for America to collapse, right?
The dollar's going to collapse.
Well, guess what?
The dollar's king dollar and it's going to remain so.
And I think it just went up too far too fast.
And now that some of these trade deals are getting unwound now, or I should say rewound into more permanence, you know, gold's going to come back down.
I should look at the chart here real quick while we're talking.
Gold's going to come back down and test the breakout, Dave.
You know, that was in, let's see here.
That breakout, you're looking at probably gold can come back down to maybe 3,800 area.
Okay.
And I don't think it's going to fall all the way back down to 3,500 or 3,600, but that's probably where it could probably go.
That's normal when you have a move like this is to get a test of what they call former resistance back into support.
Okay.
Right.
And so I would tell people not panic on that.
I just rebought back in.
I got out of my gold and silver miners a couple of weeks ago, actually right before I left from vacation.
And I just bought back into Wheaton and I just bought back into Hekla.
And over the next weeks and months, I'm going to be re-engaging my full position again.
Because at the end of the day, no matter how strong the dollar is, we're still increasing the debt.
And so, and it's actually in Trump's best interest for gold to go higher.
We talked about this before because of Trump has the ability to reprice the gold that's in Fort Knox and he can use it as a slush fund for his treasury to do whatever he wants with it.
So I don't think he's going to let gold get beat up too badly.
And I don't think China will either.
So I think I look forward to be an opportunity here.
If it gets anywhere between 36 or 3,800, I'd be a buyer.
Yeah, I agree with that.
I mean, you buy the dips and you take advantage of these type of periods.
Same thing with Bitcoin.
I mean, Bitcoin, we were hitting all-time highs and it dropped down.
I know people started to panic, like, oh, my God, we're going back to zero.
It's done.
But once again, Bitcoin is starting to move up again.
And those people that took advantage of Bitcoin, the dip, people bought into it and now it's going back up.
Yeah, we had a buy price at $107 to get back into Bitcoin.
And we had what we call a catastrophic, really strong support buy at 98K, but never got down there.
And so I went ahead and bought.
This might be something for your listeners to pay attention to.
There's IBIT IBIT, but there's also a dividend paying one called BITK that pays a really nice dividend.
It's brand new and it pays a weekly dividend.
And so if Bitcoin moves higher, you can take advantage of.
Obviously, BITO, I also own that, is good.
Now, MicroStrategy is finally getting a bid again, Dave.
A lot of people were in Misty and stuff like that, but MicroStrategy got a little bit ahead of itself and they had too much of a premium.
That premium's been wiped out, and you're starting to see MicroStrategy get a bid again, too.
So the key now for Bitcoin, Dave, is for it to crack a new high at 125.
And then there's a chance, I would say we have a 90-day window for Bitcoin before the 2026 Bitcoin sell-off that usually happens in the cycle here takes hold.
Now, if you're listening to Trump Jr., right, he's talking about 200K for Bitcoin.
You can't bet against the Trump boys.
They're becoming the new Nancy Pelosi in terms of their prediction ability.
So I would keep an eye on on Bitcoin here.
If it breaks a new high, you know, that one twenty five, one twenty six area, then I think it easily scored up fifty thousand in a matter of weeks.
If not, we're kind of in this trading range.
And I would just recommend people buying and trimming, buying and trimming and bring your cost average down.
But it's the same category as gold.
It's a it's a trade that you need to have.
And here's the other thing, too, which why I like Bitcoin is that liquidity is going to come back into the market here with with the shutdown getting resolved and also the trade deal with China getting resolved.
Right.
A worldwide liquidity is increases required for Bitcoin increase.
And I think you're going to see liquidity come back in.
Yeah.
We never really talk about silver, but silver was.
Now, I don't know if you know this.
You're not investing.
You're being used.
Wall Street, Washington, the Fed.
They don't care about your future.
They care about control.
And as they push their agenda forward, they'll take everything they can from you, your retirement, your portfolio, your freedom, all of it.
The only way to protect yourself is to stop playing their rig game and untether your wealth from the system they control before it's too late.

And some say even higher than that.
Bitcoin is the future.
Don't let fear or confusion keep you out.
Take control of your digital wealth today at mydigitalmoney.com.
That's mydigitalmoney.com.
Doing very, very well.
Also, I mean, that was really moving up.
And what you're taking?
Yeah, yeah.
So when I take gold, I always, to me, they're kind of inside.
Yeah, they're like one in the same.
Yeah, I always, I always give silver, gold, platinum, palladium, they're all kind of one buddy.
And then you got to watch copper.
Copper will tell us whether we're going to come out of recession or go into recession.
Right now, copper is kind of flattish.
There's an even chance we'll go into recession next year.
It all depends on how fast Trump can reshure against the ongoing trimming these companies are doing as they're adopting these AI and robotic tools.
So, I mean, with your trading system and everything, what are you predicting in the future for, let's say, oil, let's say gold and Bitcoin?
What are you looking at here?
Yeah, I think there's going to be the everything trade coming up here.
In fact, today and yesterday, well, it couldn't be yesterday, but traditionally marks the bottom for the rest of the year.
So the everything trade is going to start taking hold here into Christmas.
And like I said, I think gold needs to work off its excess and it's going to go higher.
But in general, if you just have a broad portfolio of tech, oil, gold, silver, Bitcoin, I think you'll be really happy by the end of January.
And then we're just going to have to have to just wait and see.
A lot of opportunities.
And, you know, if you've been following Apple, we just went ahead and the family just bought the Apple 17.
You know, we're coming off the Apple 11.
That's how long I've waited to upgrade.
And only because I wanted, you know, now the phones are getting too old, but I went in and talked to everything's on back order, Dave.
So there's a good chance Apple could move up another $60 here over the next, you know, I would say six to eight weeks.
And Apple sales in China are booming despite all the ways in which China doesn't want it to happen.
They're not buying the Chinese phone.
They want the American phone.
So I think tech's still going to hold on pretty well.
And then going into 2026, we're going to have to wait and see.
And the other thing really weird is that TLT, which is the long bond, is holding on really well.
So I think as they reduce interest rates, I don't think the long rate's going to score it up.
I think enough people are worried about a recession in 2026 or a growth scare or even a deflationary impulse with all the goods from China coming in after the tariff thing is resolved.
That I think you'll see TLT move higher as well.
There'll be a shift more into bonds, especially if we start blowing off here at the end of the year.
So if people wanted to get into trading and they wanted to, you know, trade Bitcoin, gold, and the other stocks, do you have any specials running this month?
We do.
We have one running it for, we have two chat rooms.
So there's one where it's just typing chat, and then there's another room where you can actually speak to myself or to Phil or to any of the other members.
And so we have those heavily discounted for your listeners, Dave.
Take advantage of it here before the end of the month.
And what you get from that is I put trades out every day.
We record all the trades.
There's full accountability.
We're doing very well.
And we also give you access to our algorithms so that you can actually trade what you want to trade.
And people do very well on their own.
It doesn't take a long time to learn how to use it.
We adopt what's called a C-trade, take trade mentality here.
Our code is written where it's visual, where you can see whether you should be in or not be in a trade.
And it works across all timeframes.
So if you're a day trader or a swing trader or a long-term investor, the algorithm works across all timeframes.
And so you get all of that.
And you get to be in with a really good group of people.
We're all like-minded.
And it's a great place to be.
People call it the trade genius think tank.
So a lot of great ideas get shared.
And, you know, you personally know some of the people that trade with us.
And, you know, they've given you some really good feedback.
So I think you'd really like being with us.
And what we charge today for the service is nothing compared to what you get out of it.
Great.
I'll put all the links at the bottom of the video so people can go right over and check it out.
And I mean, right now, since we're in a shutdown, the Fed has announced that they're going to be ending their tightening.
And what effect do you think this is going to have on short-term rates, long-term rates?
What do you think happens when they start to do this?
Oh, I think, but between now and the midterm elections, I think you're going to see a steady stream of reduction in short-term rates.
You know, I think Trump, you know, he thinks these rates should be down close to zero.
Yeah.
He's saying there's no inflation.
So why am I being charged interest?
Why are we being forced to pay investors interest and increasing our debt when there's no inflation?
So I think you're going to see that drive down.
I think the long rates are going to come down too.
And maybe we should talk about this next month because we're running out of time now.
I really want to tell you guys about how they're going to use Tether to get rid of the Fed.
And I think you can't underestimate whoever these geniuses are that came up with Bitcoin and they came up with Tether.
Amazing.
Amazing.
And I think it's a game changer for the long term.
And basically, where the governments can gain control back from the private bankers, the ability to create currency and also not pay free interest out.
And you can't stop it.
It is in motion right now.
It's pure physics.
I completely agree with you.
And think about it.
When that happens, and let's say they pay off the debt and they get rid of the Fed, all that buying power comes back to the people.
I mean, think about it.
The inflation that has occurred since 1971 when we came off the gold standard till now, it's cumulative.
It doesn't go away because if it went away, I mean, if inflation is truly 2% or 1% or zero, we go back to 1971 prices.
But we don't.
So can you imagine when that's all paid off?
The buying power that comes back to the people?
Absolutely incredible.
Yeah, exactly.
And there's another thing, too.
A lot of money is going to come roaring into the United States.
That's why you hear all this digital currency thing.
Everybody realizes that, shoot, we built a Trojan horse here.
And now, as of today, I think Western Union is going to use Tether to do international trading.
So you're going to see money.
You're going to see the Tether standard going to be used and the SWIFT standard is going to be disused.
So I'm actually excited.
So we'll see what comes from it.
But very interesting that they're going to be able to do this.
And that only helps Bitcoin because it becomes kind of like this virtuous cycle where more Bitcoins allowed more Tether.
More Tether can buy more bonds, ad infinitum.
More money comes into the United States.
And that giant sucking sound is going to be all other fiats getting crushed against King Dollar.
And then King Dollar is going to go ahead and pay off the big old debt.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it looks like Trump is continually making deals across the world.
Canada tried to fight back by putting out a Ronald Reagan ad and fight against the tariffs.
I mean, you think Canada's in trouble?
I know we mentioned this right in the beginning, but do you think Canada's in trouble?
Yeah, you ever see that cartoon where the eagle's coming down and the mouse, the mouse is laying on the ground there with his middle finger up?
Yeah.
That's what reminds me of Canada.
You know, I don't get it.
I think somebody said it that Canada thinks it's bigger than it really is.
And so, you know, you have a situation where I think Canada views itself as part of the European Union, I think, instead of America's cousin.
And they adopted a lot of the same policies, but they realize that they're totally dependent on the United States.
And look, and half the country doesn't want to be part of that model.
They want to be part of the American model.
So I think Canada has an equal chance of getting busted apart.
I was watching a comedian that said, you know, Canada has the best border security in the world.
It's called the United States.
You know, and so they should be actually grateful.
And so I think you're, I think once they come to grips that they have no market and they can't go anywhere else.
I heard Doug Ford talking about, well, we're just going to increase our conversations with Asia and Europe.
Like, hello, those are the people that are in the mercantilist.
They're not going to allow Canadian goods to come into their country when they can't even sell their stuff domestically or internationally.
So I think Canada is going to have to come to the table.
And, you know, the thing about dealing with Trump, you know, there's two ways you deal with Trump, right?
You're dealing with the way you are, publicly nasty, and you get smacked around.
Or you come humbly to Trump and you want him to be your buddy and help you.
And what does Trump do?
He always is a sucker for that.
And I mean that in a good way.
You know, hey, you know, hey, hey, my good friend Canada is suffering here.
Look what happened to Argentina, right?
They had that big currency crisis.
What did Trump do?
He went down and they rescued the Argentinian peso.
You know, and so I don't get people.
I think people don't understand.
You know, even if you're angry with Trump or you want to beat Trump, you know, why make it hard for yourself?
And I think these people, I think they think it's good politics, but when people start losing their job, just like what's happening here in the United States, you know, you have people that are yakking about the, you know, the National Guard coming in, and then people in Memphis two weeks later and saying, huh, there's no more crime left.
This is great.
And I think that's what we're seeing with Canada.
Yeah.
And also, I think egos get in the way.
And like you said, they think they're bigger than they really are.
I don't think they understand how dependent they are on the United States.
And I think that's the major problem because if he shut off the money and brought all the manufacturers back here and we, you know, we cut down our own trees and house the lumber here.
Canada be sitting there going, okay, what are we doing here?
Yeah, we have nothing.
They'd have 50% unemployment.
Gigi just came out this morning and said, I'm not interested in a hot or a cold war with the United States.
Because he knows if Trump just said, well, I'm not trading with you in 90 days, there'd be 300 million unemployed Chinese.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, I think people don't quite get it.
You know, and I think it's very interesting what Trump did with the rare earth minerals, where he was able, because, you know, China had a monopoly on that.
And he went to Ukraine, made a deal there.
Out in Alaska, there's mining and processing that they're going to start.
And then he was just out in Asia where he made the deal with, I think, Cambodia and Thailand where we're going to get their rare earth minerals.
So he set it up where he diversified and actually said to China, look, we can get it other places.
We don't need you for that.
Well, how about Pakistan?
Pakistan, China put the Pakistan on the map for rare earths, and then they wouldn't let them process it.
They'd have to ship it to China.
United States said, hey, give us five years, give us your rare earths, and I'll set it up that you'll not only be able to process your rare earth, but you'll be able to create your own magnets and other goods, and I'll let you sell it into my country.
Pakistan said, no problem.
They put all the rare earths on a boat and sent it to the United States.
That's what started the whole export control thing.
Pakistan just said, you know, screw you.
United States showed China, you know, hey, there's a lot of ways to skin this cat, buddy.
And, you know, you think you're in control, but you're not really in control.
You think you have friends, but you don't really have friends.
And so it's really interesting to see how he, you know, that's why I laugh.
People underestimate this guy so much because he's a little bit bombastic.
People think he's stupid.
But all he does is just draw people out so he can see what their true intentions are.
And people fall for it every single time.
Yep.
So do you think that, let me ask you this.
How do you think Trump's tariffs is planned?
How do you think it's working?
Well, so far, so good.
I mean, it's everybody's been bearing the cost of it because the people had tried to pass the costs on to the American consumer saw their sales volumes collapse.
So they have no choice but to eat the margin.
I mean, you know, you're looking at some of these, some of these companies, you know, are eating $500 million, a billion dollars, you know, and not raising the price of Toyota absorbed the entire amount, you know, and, you know, in terms of their income statement so they don't lose market share here in the United States.
So I think it's going pretty well.
I think eventually, well, he's going to bring the tariffs down to a point level.
I think at the end of the day, you're probably going to see 15 to 20% tariffs across the board on average.
Some countries more, some countries less.
They're going to all eat it.
It's just going to be the cost of doing business with the United States.
So where do you think we're going for the end of this year and into next year?
Yeah, I think we're going to get the buy everything market between now and Christmas.
And then usually Christmas gets a little wonky.
Some weeks are good.
Some weeks are bad.
Then I think we'll get a bump in January.
And then I think last year we kind of pushed all the way to March before we sell off.
I think this year we'll probably start selling off in February.
The market is just too high, Dave.
You know, we're at record stock market to GDP.
And at some point, at some point, money moves from Wall Street to Main Street.
And I think you're going to start seeing more of that going into next year.
The breadth is terrible.
What I mean by the breadth, the number of companies that are making the move are shrinking.
It's all in tech AI.
And tech AI is definitely in a bubble.
And we can talk more about that next month if we get a chance.
And that bubble will break.
And people just need to look at Nortel networks to understand what's going to happen to these companies, but it'll drive all the indexes down.
And I think we're going to see that at the first quarter earnings reports that come out on February 15th of March 15th.
