While no-one wants to conceive the prospect of another World War, this is the path we're on. Major struggles occur at the peak of the k-wave

No one wants to conceive the concept of another World War. However, if we ignore the warning signs, we remain in ignorant to the patterns of history - which, after all, is why history repeats.... I pulled myself out of bed whilst it was still dark a few days ago, to interview U.K. Global Forecaster David Murrin.   This is my third interview with David, and despite the early hour, it didn’t disappoint.   David is one of the smartest analysists I’ve met.   He has over two deca

No doubt you have been watching coverage of the new war between Israel and Hamas on the news. However, as with all mainstream news coverage, the gruesome reality of what is occurring on the ground is not being seen or adequately represented. As some of you may be aware, I am Jewish. I have spent a considerable amount of time in Israel over the years — and last year, I very nearly moved there. As such, I have many friends who live in Israel and have some direct insight into wh

Governments around the world are spending trillions of dollars on infrastructure. There’s the US’ $1-trillion infrastructure push, China’s enormous Belt and Road Initiative spanning continents, the UK’s promise of £650 billion in infrastructure schemes over the next decade…the list goes on. It’s the biggest global build-out of physical assets in human history. Think roads, bridges, airports, seaports, energy facilities, 5G towers, schools, hospitals, rail, and even hyperloops

You’ve probably heard of China’s One Belt One Road (OBOR) grand plan. Perhaps you know it as the ‘The New Silk Road’ or the ‘Belt and Road Initiative’ (BRI). It’s a Chinese vision to reshape the geography of the world — and the global power balance. The Chinese think of it as the ‘great revival of the Chinese nation’, and enshrined it into their constitution. China wants to create a ‘Eurasian land bridge’. This will link Western China to Central Asia, before continuing on all

There’s a lot of fear at the moment regarding rate rises and their ongoing effect on the economy. No one expected the latest 0.25% increase in the cash rate — it caught markets by surprise. There’s now clear indication that the RBA may have tightened too much, and as a consequence, the Australian 2–10-year yield curve has *just* inverted. Source: AMP Capital An inverted yield curve might sound like some complex financial jargon, but it’s pretty straightforward once you break

A few weeks ago, I interviewed Global Forecaster’s David Murrin to discuss his analysis of the Kondratieff long wave and the prospect of war at the peak of this current cycle. David Murrin is one of the smartest men I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. He’s a renowned global forecaster, author, and entrepreneur, known for his groundbreaking work in predicting and analysing major world events. With a career spanning over three decades, Murrin has earned a reputation as one of the

Today we follow on from Fred Harrison’s interview I brought to you last week. In that interview, Fred concludes that this cycle will continue to a peak in 2026 but be followed by war. This is why Fred sees this cycle as different from others. In Fred’s words: ‘ In my view the 18-year cycle will continue to extend, house prices will peak in 2026. ‘ The end of the cycle is 2028 – the depths of the recession. ‘ But unlike previous end of 18 year cycles this one will be a particu
