Veteran economist Gary Shilling believes the U.S. economy could slip into a recession by the end of the year, and he warns that the stock market could fall as much as 20% to 30%. His concern is that several parts of the economy are starting to weaken at the same time: the housing market has slowed because interest rates remain high, businesses outside of AI are cutting back on spending and investment, and consumers are feeling squeezed by higher living costs and rising energy prices tied to the Iran conflict. Since consumer spending drives most of the U.S. economy, Shilling says any pullback in spending could create much bigger problems. He also believes stocks are currently priced too high compared to historical averages, which could make markets more vulnerable to a sharp correction if economic conditions worsen.

For investors, it raises an important question: is your portfolio properly diversified to weather the storm? Historically, periods of economic uncertainty, inflation concerns, and stock-market volatility have often increased interest in hard assets like gold and silver as investors look beyond traditional financial markets. While no investment can guarantee protection from market risk, many investors continue turning to precious metals as a way to help diversify their portfolios during uncertain times.
