Following the weekend’s decapitation strike on Iran, our guest Jim Rickards reveals that this is just one move on a global chessboard. While the world watches the Middle East burn, Rickards warns that the U.S. has already locked down Venezuela’s oil and now, he reveals “Cuba is next.” As the Trump administration rolls up enemies from cartel leaders to ayatollahs, Rickards connects the dots between the fog of war and the fastest route to $10,000 gold. With Brent crude spiking toward $100 and gold shattering $5,300, Rickards explains why the old playbook is dead. “Tell me where the next war is,” he says, “I’ll tell you where the price of gold is going.”

Jim Rickards is a lawyer, investment banker and economist with over thirty years’ experience in capital markets. He is currently Chief Global Strategist at Meraglim. He advises the Department of Defense, the U.S. intelligence community, and major hedge funds on global finance, and served as a facilitator of the first ever financial war games conducted by the Pentagon.
