Show Notes

Trump has his work cut out for him, trying to put the Genie back in the bottle, or reassembling Humpty Dumpty. Trade ware and sanctions undermine the current financial system and the dollar. BRICS move forward with a new alternative to SWIFT, immune to sanctions. 

The Eurocrats try to spin the dangerous digital Euro, forgetting that trying to control how we spend our money is radically unpopular, and prone to the Streisand effect. 

Buy shares in popcorn producers. So much is happening we can't keep up.
