Stijn Schmitz welcomes back Steve Hanke back to the show. Steve Hanke is a Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University. Hanke highlights the two major wars—the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran and the Ukraine war—as critical disruptors of global commodity flows. He notes that the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed, with Iran controlling it, and the Houthis threaten the Red Sea chokepoint, severely constricting crude and refined product supplies. Russia's cutoff of diesel exports and domestic fuel shortages compound the strain. Oil markets are in backwardation, with spot prices above futures, signaling dangerously low inventories that have cushioned prices so far but are nearing depletion. Hanke warns that once physical inventories run out, oil prices could spike dramatically, potentially later this summer. He advises going long on oil, especially major producers, as a straightforward trade for most investors. On gold, Hanke maintains a bullish outlook, projecting a peak around $6,000 per ounce based on historical ratios to real disposable income. He attributes recent pullbacks to dollar strength and rising interest rates but sees central bank buying as a fundamental driver. He also discusses the pressure on the Fed to monetize debt, which could fuel inflation and support gold. The conversation shifts to the broader commodity supercycle, fueled by deglobalization, underinvestment, and the need for larger precautionary inventories. Copper and tungsten are identified as clear bullish plays due to supply deficits. Hanke notes that high diesel prices are squeezing mining and agriculture, potentially raising output prices. He also touches on dollarization, recommending developing countries adopt the U.S. dollar to expand its use rather than de-dollarize. The interview concludes with Hanke emphasizing the importance of money supply growth as the key determinant of nominal GDP and inflation.

The temperatures across the South are still scorching (as usual). World Cup Fever across the United States seems to be abating quite a bit today. The three host countries in North America (Canada, Mexico, and the United States) for the 2026 World Cup soccer advanced into the Round of 16. That was a pleasant surprise and some very good news for fans in North America. Sadly, the soccer teams for the three host countries all bit the dust over the past few days. None reached the quarterfinals, Elite Eight, or whatever the FIFA soccer people call this next round. Action on Saturday July 4th saw Canada get skunked 3-0 by tiny Morocco. The Moroccans converted on three of their four shots on goal to capture the win. Canada only attempted three shots on goal as they bowed out of this year’s competition. On Sunday, Mexico lost at home to England 3-2 in a very tightly contested match. The home team out passed England by a 2-1 margin. The number of completed passes by Mexico (418 to 195 for England) was impressive but didn’t lead to enough points. As golfers might translate, “Pass for show, but kick goals for dough.” The final host country bowed out of World Cup 26 on Monday in Seattle. World Cup host United States had all eyes focused on Seattle Monday evening for its Round of 16 game against Belgium. Team USA was coming off a raucous Independence Day weekend filled with fireworks and patriotic enthusiasm as the nation celebrated 250 years. Apparently, America’s soccer team failed to receive a fiery jingoistic pregame message. Belgium breezed to a surprisingly easy 4-1 win over an American team which looked like it had a case of World Cup stage fright on Monday night. The US was attempting to reach the quarterfinals (round of 8) for the first time since 2002. Belgium’s Red Devils (yes, that’s their nickname) had never even reached the quarterfinals – before Monday night’s game against Team USA. Despite having a very loud advantage playing in the home stadium of the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks, the American team laid a proverbial egg Monday night in losing 4-1 to Belgium. The team looked lethargic (overconfident, perhaps?) and did not appear ready for a game of this magnitude. Much like the European golfers have dominated golf’s Ryder Cup matches the past few decades, the European soccer teams seemed more cohesive and better prepared. The quarterfinals will feature seven European teams and just one South American squad. All of these games will be shown on FOX Television. Times are CDT: Thursday – France vs. Morocco (3PM) in Foxboro, MA Friday – Spain vs. Belgium (2PM) in Los Angeles, CA Saturday – Norway vs. England (4PM) in Miami, FL Saturday – Argentina vs. Switzerland (8PM) in Kansas City, MO Team USA’s bubble was burst on Monday night by a Belgian team which was not considered to be one of the top European squads. America once again proved that their team has exceptional ability, but their team resolve in tough matches isn’t quite as determined as other top competitors. Perhaps the US should hire Olympic Dream Team members such as Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird to help prepare the soccer team next time? Question – Will Americans still watch the remaining World Cup games without Team USA involved? The World Cup soccer television ratings have been a success for FOX Sports. Last Wednesday’s 2-0 win by Team USA over Bosnia-Herzegovina drew 26 million viewers. Early reports indicated that more than 30 million viewers tuned into FOX on Monday night during the American team’s 4-1 loss to Belgium. That’s about 1/3 of the number of viewers for a Super Bowl game. That is quite impressive. The total exceeds the viewership of nearly every NFL regular season game. But… Are you planning to tune in for the afternoon quarterfinal games on Thursday and Friday? The next night game on the schedule won’t occur until Saturday night’s quarterfinal game in Kansas City featuring Argentina and Switzerland. The Swiss won a 0-0 game over Colombia Tuesday afternoon following a 4-3 shootout success. I will be surprised if World Cup soccer will lure 15 to 20 million American viewers for the upcoming quarterfinal round of games. Red Card Outrage! The US team was given (theoretically) an advantage before Monday’s game with Belgium. A dreaded Red Card was handed to an American player by a referee in the previous game after two players got their legs tangled-up. The Red Card would have disqualified the American player from participating on Monday night against Belgium. Following a call from US President Donald Trump asking for an executive review, a FIFA committee rescinded the Red Card and reinstated the American player. The Belgian team was outraged by that decision. It added more motivation to take down the US squad in Monday night’s game. Have you noticed the unique grammar involving World Cup sports stories? I was reading a news story posted on ESPN Sunday and ran across the following sentences (among many): “Norway were stronger, better organized, and more capable with the ball.” “Norway are a very good team” What is going on here? Who is writing this stuff? The best answer I could find is that Europeans (who speak “proper” English, of course) refer to their national soccer/football team as if it was a plural noun. I’m not picking on ESPN in particular for this odd writing style during the World Cup. Other major news outlets have been doing the same thing. I’ll counter with this suggestion. If the soccer match is being played in Europe, write the story any way you prefer. That’s fine. When the game is being played in Kansas City, Missouri, or another American city, please write your story utilizing the preferred grammar used by American readers. Fakery Bakery is open for business again this year at the World Cup Soccer is played without protective pads except around the lower legs. Contact between the players while they run at full speed or jump into the air to hit the ball with their head is inevitable. Legitimate sports injuries affect every team. However, the sport continues to hone fakery to new levels of acting in order to draw a penalty from the game’s referees. Feigning an injury on the field to draw a sympathetic penalty from the refs has become too commonplace in soccer. A 0-0 defensive struggle like Tuesday’s epic (Zzzz…) between Switzerland and Colombia can tempt players to feign injury to help their team get a better shot on goal. Winning a “World Cup Academy Award” in the category of Overacting seems to be a must for many players. For fun, keep your eyes on those “injured” players. Once they receive that penalty call on an opponent, their injured leg, back, or other body part seems to heal almost immediately. It’s a miracle! Mexican fans performed their version of the Texas A&M Aggies’ Midnight Yell Mexican soccer fans pulled out all the stops last week in trying to win their World Cup games in Mexico City. During some recent games, the home team’s zealous fans camped outside of the hotel which was hosting the opposing team. From late at night until the wee hours of the next morning, a throng of Mexican fans threw a loud party replete with Mariachi bands, singing, chanting, and air horns all night long. They were trying to disrupt the sleep of the team’s next day opponent. The Mexican fans’ version of a Texas A&M Midnight Yell practice was in excessively bad taste and displayed rather poor sportsmanship. In the end, England ended Mexico’s midnight serenade with a 3-2 win to eliminate the host country. Life is much quieter today in Mexico City.

A major controversy has erupted in Maine's U.S. Senate race after a 41-year-old woman publicly accused Senate candidate Graham Platner of sexually assaulting her five years ago. The allegation has thrown his campaign into turmoil, with numerous Democratic voices calling on him to withdraw from the race.Donald Trump pretty much admitted on Monday he meddled in the World Cup over a red card given to a USA team player during Wednesday's game against Bosnia-Herzegovina.According to the rules, Folarin Balogun should've been suspended for Monday's game against Belgium, but FIFA lifted the suspension on Sunday after Trump asked officials to review the call ― despite the lack of an official appeals process for appealing the penalty.David Cay Johnston and Mo Kelly will join us to discuss the top stories of the week.The Mark Thompson Show 7/7/26Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

Donald Trump has revealed that he personally called Gianni Infantino, the head of Fifa, to ask him to review the red card given to United States' star player Folarin Balogun. The striker had been given a one-match ban after a hard tackle against Tarik Muharemovic of Bosnia-Herzegovina, but the punishment was suspended in time for the US to play their final 16 match against Belgium yesterday.The decision has been widely condemned across the football world, with European footballing organisation UEFA, calling it, "unprecedented, incomprehensible and unjustifiable", and former Fifa president Sepp Blatter writing on X, “Redcards are not overturned by political phone calls… Football must never become a playground for political power.”Infantino has insisted the decision was made independently by Fifa's “independent judicial bodies”.On today's show, Tristan is joined by BBC football issues correspondent Dale Johnson and New Yorker staff writer Sam Knight, to explain the scandal, and how Infantino's governance of Fifa has brought football and politics closer together.Producers: Hannah Moore and Xandra EllinMix: Travis EvansVideo journalist: Matt PintusSenior news editor: China CollinsPhoto: Folarin Balogun of the U.S. looks dejected as he applauds fans after the match following their elimination from the World Cup, July 6, 2026.

US President Donald Trump confirms he spoke to FIFA before they suspended Folarin Balogun's one-game red card ban. The 25-year-old striker, who is the US's top scorer at the tournament with three goals, was shown a straight red card for a foul on Bosnia-Herzegovina defender last week. There are now warnings that football's integrity may be at stake as the ban was overturned. We hear from a former top FIFA executive who thinks football's governing body has got it badly wrong.Also on the programme: a new insight into a puzzle from the start of the universe; and why an ancient Greek epic speaks to us today as Homer's Odyssey has its global movie premiere in London.(Photo: US footballer Folarin Balogun practising in Seattle Credit: Imagn Images via Reuters/Steven Bisig)
