Systemic Vulnerability: When Waivers Become Policy
Today's episode unpacks the escalating crisis in global supply chains, revealing how reliance on fragile networks—and emergency measures—exposes deeper vulnerabilities. We break down the geopolitical implications of the Iran conflict, from shipping costs to energy independence, and explore why a 'freedom premium' is becoming essential for portfolio resilience. Plus, we debate whether the market's optimism is built on a foundation of increasingly fragile corporate financing and a widening economic divide.
