Reinvent Money, Released on 6/26/26

Most investors overlook the real danger lurking in the oil market—and it could redefine global energy prices for years to come. Chris Martenson from Peak Prosperity drops eye-opening insights into the current oil crisis, explaining how unprecedented low strategic reserves and geopolitical tensions could push oil prices up much higher—and what that means for your investments and daily life. Discover how current inventory levels, tactical moves by nations, and the unseen hand of covert State interventions could dramatically alter the oil landscape—and why ignoring these signals risks catastrophic economic fallout. We break down the evolving role of US strategic reserves, Russia’s influence over global energy, and the surprising impact of recent geopolitical conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
