Jacob and Rob squeeze in a quick episode to reality-check some of the media narratives out there about an imminent recession, copper prices, and the U.S. dollar. From there, they cast their eyes toward emerging markets, looking at events in Brazil, Indonesia, India, and Turkey, and concluding that things still look good in a multipolar world…as long as you have an appropriate level of risk tolerance. They close with specific thoughts on the Indian market. -- Timestamps: (00:00) - Intro (01:20) – Profit recession (13:10) – Copper (16:32) – The direction of the USD (20:34) – Multipolar investing (28:11) – India and Shorting (37:47) – Parisian vibe check -- Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.com Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShap CI Site: cognitive.investments Subscribe to the Newsletter: bit.ly/weekly-sitrep -- The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.
