Markets Crash, Debt Explodes: Why 2008 Was a Warm-Up for 2025

“It goes far beyond just a correction. It's the entire global debt-based system that's at risk in my opinion,” says Tim Wood, CPA and publisher of market newsletter Cycles News & Views. In an interview with Daniela Cambone, Wood introduces his long-term economic cycle research, explaining that historic market cycles—from the Panic of 1819 to the Dot-Com bubble—have consistently followed a pattern of boom and bust. However, he identifies the post-2002 era as uniquely precarious: unlike previous cycles fueled by real economic innovation, this one relies heavily on government debt and stimulus with no solid economic underpinning. If the third decline “bites,” it could trigger a deflationary spiral similar to the Great Depression, warns Wood. Watch the interview to see how you can better protect your wealth in precarious times."

This information needs to be put out more. So many people unaware of this destructive system we are in.

[CraftsmanJack]

Thank you Daniela, Tim Wood is the MAN.

[lynnesews]

It takes many sharp minds to solve complex issues, and I feel grateful for what Tim Wood is adding. 🙏

[joysunshine]

Daniela!! Please bring back Tim Woods for updates. Please. Thank you! LOVE YOUR SHOW!!

[loritooker]

Tim is the real deal. I subscribe to his newsletter. It comes out three times a week, without fail, plus a research letter every month. I don’t know where he finds the time.

[yesferatu]

Daniela’s Synchronicity story at the start means I have to listen to this.

[brettgreen]

You've done it again, Daniela. You have delivered up another sound voice that needs to be at least heard if not heeded. I appreciate Tim's humility and transparency. Like David Webb, Tim seems to have a genuine concern for how people are impacted.

[ToykinChin]

Tim's prospective in neutrality is great, this was a great interview by both Tim and you. Excellent job!

[VladamirJohnson-vo]

Daniela and team, thank you for this guest. He is humble and knowledgeable. I appreciate hearing anyone who has studied the debt based system that we all live in. If we had a gold based system, none of us would be talking about this now. 😊

[thinkingoutloud-gj]

I used to get Tim's news letter back in 2009 and 2010. That being said: we have been looking for the continuation of 2008 for 16 years.

[HenryLeon-rw]

This for me I’ve forgotten all about. Thanks for bringing this debt subject out as a refresher.

[Mark-ltp]

Daniela, your videos are just the best!! Thank you!

[pmtime]

Wow!!! I've never heard Tim Wood speak before. I strongly agree with his analysis on the current situation. The clincher for me was near the end of the interview he said: I feel like this administration may be there (selected) to facilitate whatever is coming with the inevitable collapse of the system. Bingo!!!

[motorheaddave]

I can't believe my comment vanished. All I said was that it was great to see Tim Wood again. He used to be a regular on Jim Puplava's weekly show many years ago. Good show today.

[makegoodlouder]

Daniela it was divine intervention, never deny your divinity!❤️❤️❤️

[elmonixon]

Your explanation as to how you hooked up with Tim is positively DIVINE. It aint no coincidence. Thanks for sharing.

[scolem]

It's over. Increasing the debt without the ability to export the inflation is the nail in the coffin.

[JerryRamirez-hi]

Learned a lot, now have to watch again. Thank you.

[joysachs]

There are absoluteky NO coincidences!!
Lovely story.

[markcrimi]

This sounds a lot like what Gregory Mannarino is proposing. Great stuff! Thank you for what you're doing!
