Yesterday I had John Polomny on the podcast for a wide ranging conversation on markets and current events. We got into broad markets, opportunities in the commodities sector and international markets, and some of the political shifts on the horizon. If you’re interested in where markets and the world are probably headed over the next several years, you will enjoy this one. You can find John’s Substack below, and you can also find him on Twitter.
