Breaking and Rebuilding Iran’s Economy - with Miad Maleki


Listen Later

📈 Our WYNDEX (What’s Your Number Index) update for today:

The WYNDEX returned to the green, outperforming the S&P and NASDAQ by nearly 2% in a weaker market. Gains were led by Lemonade (+16%), Nova hitting new highs, and continued strength in defense names like Elbit. On the downside, losses were limited, with ICL down over 8% as markets weigh supply chain risk. Overall, investors are showing renewed confidence in Israeli tech resilience.

🔎 Our Long Play today:

Toppling the Islamic Republic will only be possible by inflicting real harm on the regime’s oppressive economy. Miad Maleki, the architect of the Trump administration’s sanctions strategy against Iran, joins Yonatan and Yael to unpack the state of Iran’s corrupt economy, and its domination by the IRGC. Can economic distress lead to revolution? And will Iran be able to pick up the pieces if the regime collapses?
