On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey are joined by Paul Podolsky. Paul previously worked as a strategist for Bridgewater Associates – one of the largest hedge funds in the world – for nearly 16 years. Now, he's the founder of Still Press, an author, and the host of the Things I Didn't Learn in School podcast.

But first, Dan and Corey discuss Ben & Jerry's recent tweet about "stolen Indigenous land," as well as the broader implications for businesses engaging in political activism. They explore the potential impact on market performance, consumer behavior, and the overall perception of companies like Target, Disney, Starbucks, Unilever, and Anheuser-Busch. (00:41)

Paul then joins the conversation to highlight his experiences at Bridgewater under billionaire investor Ray Dalio and share insights on the second-largest economy in the world, China. He says Chinese assets can offer positive expected returns and low correlation with other assets, which makes them attractive today. However, Paul draws from his experience with trading Russian assets to inform his views on China. He emphasizes that the future of both China and Russia remains uncertain. (19:40)

Lastly, Paul shares his insights on another potentially lucrative emerging market... Chile. Despite the challenges Chile faces due to political fluctuations, Paul explains how it remains an investable option for those seeking diversification. As global economic debates continue, it's crucial for investors to carefully evaluate the potential returns and risks of investing in emerging markets. (45:27)
