• His unfiltered take on Donald Trump: “He knows precisely nothing” but still better than the alternative
• How endless money printing destroyed the middle class while making asset owners rich
• Why China has already eclipsed the West in technology and industrial power (and why the U.S. should be grateful)
• Emerging market opportunities in 2026: Thai banks, Brazil, Colombia, and why value is finally beating growth
• The surprising outperformance of global stocks vs. the U.S. in 2025
• Precious metals as the only real winner in a world of collapsing fiat currencies
• Immigration, geopolitics, war cycles, and why peace is no longer profitable for some
