Hedge fund manager, Hugh Hendry, invites his former colleague Tom Roderick, the manager of the Trium Macro Hedge Fund, to review this week's crash in cryptocurrencies. They draw parallels with the tech bubble of the late 1990s and the pyramid of leverage that lay behind the housing bubble in late 2006. They discuss bitcoin's coming of age. With values soaring past one trillion dollars, crypto is no longer a cheap out-of-the money call option on currency debasement. Downside volatility will feature as prominently as the upside. Finally, they venture that real world applications for the currency could take bitcoin beyond its peak price.

Hedge fund pirate Hugh Hendry, chronicle the inner workings of the uncorrelated and legendary Eclectica Fund. Hugh's monthly client letter is deployed as a hedge fund boot camp to reveal what he was thinking and why he made the decisions he did, in real time. No new Hedge Fund wannabee can afford to miss the journey to the present day where Hugh reveals and expounds upon his latest macro insights. 

This week he also chronicles his fight with his old boss, Crispin Odey, that saw them go long and short the same stock in their different funds and Hugh concludes by examining the social mood of ESG, why it is likely to create a further and huge up leg in commodity prices and why gold prices feel like bitcoin at 10,000

Macro Hedge Fund Manager offers more global insights and delivers a shellacking of Elon Musk, Tesla, and their incestuous menage-à-trois with Bitcoin. Comparing the ESG mood to the anti-bank sentiment in the 1930s, he compares Bitcoin with Lehman Brothers; is one as incongruous as the other? He takes us from a critique of dirty bitcoin to a deep dive into the Chinese steel industry - showing why the moribund steel sector could be poised to enter a bull market.

Hugh goes back to the future to zero in on the hydroelectric income trust, Innergex, in the Canadian province of Quebec. Having invested back in 2005 he re-examines the business today, 16 years later. He also empties the tank on his disdain for fellows in suits and moustaches, the zeitgeist of impending inflation and what the big US banks are telling us. He even treats us to another spin of The Hendry Chart Rotator., this time reviewing the largest European stocks. And Hugh explains why the "sophistication" for market neutral strategies can creates absurdities and opportunities. He suggests that the fallen tech giant ,Nokia, could be set to crawl out from its shallow grave.

Hugh gets X-rated unveiling his version of hardcore pornography - The Hendry Chart Rotator. 

He offers a lesson from what can be gleaned from chart patterns.  We discuss the shocking failure of Europe - youth unemployment - and why the banks are the cork in the bottle right now and an analysis of Sony recording their biggest ever annual net profit. Hugh even gets in an almighty fangle and confuses Hitachi for Toshiba. We've kept it not to spare his blushes.

There's a warning from someone who's experienced it - if you're anointed an investment god, don't get too high on your own supply. And an article from The Financial Times is eviscerated for forewarning the coming power of digital currency.

The narrative continues as we jump from uranium into the oil market, and we get filthy, maybe even dirty... Why did the scorpion kill the frog? Hey hedge Fund managers gotta make money. There's also a look at China, could it be about to turn Japanese? Too early to say conclusively but the Princes of the Yuan are stirring?

Even Iggy Pop gets a mention. Use the chapter headings and the closed caption service to skip to the nitty gritty.

Hedge Fund pirate Hugh Hendry and his co-host Chris Sweeney chronicle the inner workings of the uncorrelated and legendary Eclectica Fund's 15-years of operation, from 2002 to 2017.

The boys are using Hugh's monthly letters to clients as a basis to take the audience on a journey into what he was thinking and why he made the decisions he did, in real time. It's the financial equivalent of a gripping true crime adventure. It's also an exclusive look behind the curtain of a Hedge Fund with nothing off-limits.

This week they discuss how Hugh drove home his epic gold trade and why if he still ran a hedge fund, he'd be going big on carbon trading. But be warned, Hugh is in a bad mood this episode, even though he just celebrated his birthday in St Barts! Poor, poor Chris.
