Podcast appearances and mentions of Simon Hunt

Simon Hunt joins the show with a shocking revelation, the recent meeting of top military brass in the United States was a distraction from the real plans being hatched outside of the public eye: a joint attack in Iran with Israel in a bid to capture territory and assert dominance over the Middle East. Simon lays out why he thinks this attack is imminent, how China and Russia will react, and how the Trump administration will sell this war to the American public.Get Your Commodity Culture Merch: https://commodity-culture-shop.fourthwall.comThe World Copper Podcast: https://theworldcopper.comSimon Hunt Strategic Services: https://www.simon-hunt.comFollow Jesse Day on X: https://x.com/jessebdayCommodity Culture on Youtube: https://youtube.com/c/CommodityCulture

In this podcast interview, global economic consultant Simon Hunt provides a comprehensive analysis of current geopolitical and economic tensions, focusing on potential conflicts and economic challenges facing the world. The discussion centers on the upcoming Putin-Trump summit, which Hunt believes will likely produce no substantial outcomes, with the Russia-Ukraine conflict expected to continue and be ultimately decided on the battlefield. Hunt suggests significant geopolitical risks exist, particularly in the Middle East, with potential escalations involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. He emphasizes that Washington's broader strategic objective is to prevent the BRICS nations from maturing into a genuine opposition to the current unilateral world order. The upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) meeting in September could be a pivotal moment in reshaping global dynamics. Economically, Hunt warns of potential recessionary pressures, with particular concerns about Europe's financial stability. He notes that China's economy is experiencing weakening demand, with manufacturing sectors showing signs of strain. The implementation of tariffs and trade uncertainties are creating significant business hesitation and potential long-term economic disruptions. Regarding inflation, Hunt predicts a potential inflationary surge by mid-2025, potentially reaching double-digit levels by 2027-2028. He highlights food prices as a critical indicator, with the FAO food price index showing concerning upward trends. The potential for war and continued monetary stimulus could exacerbate these inflationary pressures. In the commodities sector, particularly copper, Hunt anticipates a market correction with prices potentially falling to around $7,000 before potentially doubling by 2027-2028. He suggests that war could paradoxically become a driver of copper consumption. Ultimately, Hunt's analysis paints a picture of increasing global economic and geopolitical uncertainty, advising listeners to remain flexible, maintain food reserves, and be prepared for potential significant economic disruptions in the coming years.

Economist and strategist Simon Hunt lays out a bold, non-consensus vision of the years ahead, and it's nothing short of a global reset. In this gripping interview with Maggie Lake, Simon reveals why the U.S. is already in recession, why inflation is far worse than reported, and how a geopolitical escalation with Iran could accelerate the collapse of Western economic dominance. He explains how the BRICS nations are preparing a gold-backed system, why global supply chains are shifting, and why AI-powered factories in China are reshaping global economic power. Plus, he shares what investors must do now to prepare before the system breaks by 2028.

Trump Learned the Bitter Lesson of 2020: Don't Let the Rioters Win Find the article at- https://stream.org/trump-learned-the-bitter-lesson-of-2020-dont-let-the-rioters-win/   Trump Learned the Bitter Lesson of 2020: Don't Let the Rioters Win By John Zmirak Published on June 12, 2025 As gangs of illegal aliens and radical activists attack ICE officers and now local police in the streets of Los Angeles, I'm reminded of the race riots of 2020, and the mistakes most of us made while they were happening. In case you've blotted those ugly memories from your mind, let's review what happened in the aftermath of the botched arrest of career criminal George Floyd:   The police officers involved were immediately pulled from duty, then quickly arrested and charged. The System was working. There was literally nothing to riot about, except the vague and tendentious claim that “systemic racism” was killing black Americans. The Marxist group Black Lives Matter used Floyd's accidental death as a bloody shirt to wave around, demanding (and getting) hundreds of millions of dollars from large corporations to spend however it wished (for instance, on fancy homes and salaries). Conservative pundits and churches adopted that organization's mantra and offered uncritical support — desperate to establish their “antiracist” bona fides and protect their reputations. A series of coordinated “protests” erupted across the country, demanding that governments defund the police. Over and over, these protests turned violent, devolving into riots that saw the looting of neighborhoods poor and rich alike. Our media gaslit us with reports that these events were “mostly peaceful,” even as fires lit by arsonists raged on camera in the background. In blue states like Minnesota and California, Democrat governors who were savagely enforcing COVID lockdowns allowed the rioters to run free — pulling police from the scene and refusing to use their National Guards to protect citizens and their property. This was the starkest example of anarcho-tyranny in U.S. history … until the January 6 fedsurrection, that is. People who sneered when black entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Herman Cain died of COVID after attending a Trump campaign event and insisted that in-person voting was too dangerous to be allowed defended the riots publicly from the charge that they were “superspreader events.” Their excuse? “Racism is a threat to public health.” Trump did not federalize the National Guard in those rogue states to impose law and order. Like many of his supporters, and likely the advisors who convinced him to remain inert, I reasoned, “Let the blue cities burn. We'll make sure the federal government doesn't pay to rebuild them. The Left is trying to trap Trump into overreacting by using force in the hope that civilians will suffer and he will look like the dictator they've been calling him since Election Night 2016.” I now realize Step 6 was a huge mistake, as I'm sure Trump and his team had the chance to reflect on during the four years of lawfare and chaos they all endured under The Secret Committee Formerly Known As Joe Biden.   Now, we need to analyze why this is true so we can give full-throated support to restoring the rule of law today.   Abandoning Territory to Marxist Gangs Is Wrong Donald Trump is president of the entire United States, and he works for every American. That includes law-abiding citizens in blue states and cities who might not support mayors and governors committed to flouting U.S. laws on immigration, citizenship, and public order. Trump represents the harried, hunted police who work in Los Angeles and the taxpayers forced to fund the health care, education, and even transgender treatments of millions of illegal aliens the Biden regime let in.   We're supposed to love our neighbor. At minimum that includes our fellow Americans — even those deluded enough to believe that we owe citizenship and welfare payments to foreigners who broke into our national home. Just as we shouldn't hand out free heroin to addicts and shrug at the thought that they might OD, we shouldn't hand anarchy to Californians and Minnesotans, even if it's what they say they want. “Stinks to be you” isn't a New Testament maxim.   When Moderation Looks Like Weakness, It Is Weakness Letting blue cities burn or sink in their own squalor sounds tempting. However, it's not just a crime: it's a blunder, as political philosopher Yoram Hazony points out.   The spectacle of U.S. cities roiling with chaos, falling into the hands of Leftist mobs waving foreign flags, makes America look weak and vulnerable in the eyes of its foreign enemies. Furthermore, it makes any president who presides over it seem like a wounded, crippled giant. That was true in 2020, and it's even truer today — when the riots are aimed not at some nebulous, made-up bogeyman like “systemic racism” or “whiteness,” but directly at the law enforcement policies that got Trump elected and are, rightly, very popular: mass repatriation of blatantly illegal aliens.   These riots are aimed at Trump as a leader and his voters as citizens. They are armed, organized efforts to deprive the U.S. government of its legitimate monopoly on violence in large swathes of its territory. If Trump isn't willing to take every legal, constitutional measure to crush them and punish the perpetrators, he might as well resign right now and flee with his family into exile like the former Shah of Iran. Of course, that would leave all of us under a revolutionary tyranny every bit as ugly as Iran's.   Mobs Follow the Strong and Scorn the Weak It's a sad fact of fallen human nature: A high percentage of people don't join causes or adopt opinions because of rational argumentation, or even moral sentiments. People flock to the strong and steadfast, and naturally feel contempt for those who lack the courage of their convictions.   One of the main reasons that George Washington became first a national hero, then our leader in the fight for independence, was his obvious personal fearlessness. Bullets whizzed past him, shot through his hat and even his coat, and he was unperturbed. By contrast, the rival General Horatio Gates who sought to replace Washington at the head of the Continental Army disgraced himself by fleeing a 1780 military defeat at Camden, S.C., leaving his beaten troops behind. Trump can't afford to do the same today.   Please Support The Stream: Equipping Christians to Think Clearly About the Political, Economic, and Moral Issues of Our Day. Even thugs who stand for evil ideas can gather a following for their bravery. In their case, it's the gumption of bullies, and attracts other would-be bullies. But that's how warlords have triumphed all too often for millennia.   The thugs of illegal alien mobs, backed by the bullies in power in cities like Los Angeles, are counting on decent people to hide in their homes and on Trump to hide in the White House. We cannot let these lawless, unpatriotic, un-American mobs raise foreign flags over our cities. There's a word for that: It's “surrender.”   We didn't vote for a white flag, but for the man who stood tall while bleeding and shouted, “Fight, fight, fight!” -----------------------------------------------------------------------     John Zmirak is a senior editor at The Stream and author or coauthor of 14 books, including The Politically Incorrect Guide to Immigration and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Catholicism.

Simon Hunt, head of Product Management for Oracle APEX, joins us to share his remarkable journey from a Portsmouth school teacher to a leading role at Oracle.

Simon Hunt returns with a powerful macro warning: rising inflation, recession, and a multi-front geopolitical crisis. Will war with Iran erupt by 2027? Can Trump prevent it? What's Russia's real plan in Ukraine? Will BRICS unveil a gold-backed currency in July? In this episode, we connect the dots between war, economic collapse, and the return of gold.#Gold #BRICS #recession ---------------------Thank you to our #sponsor MONEY METALS.

Simon Hunt doesn't mince words when discussing the Trump administration's attempt to bully the world into trade deals that favor the U.S., and he believes attempts to isolate China will end in a disaster that could lead to the end of the American empire. Simon points out that tensions between the two countries are very likely to lead to an all-out hot war, one that the U.S. is ill-equipped to win.Subscribe to the TRENDS Journal: https://trendsjournal.com/subscribe (Use coupon code COMMODITY for 10% off)Simon Hunt Strategic Services: https://www.simon-hunt.comFollow Jesse Day on X: https://x.com/jessebdayCommodity Culture on Youtube: https://youtube.com/c/CommodityCulture

Tom welcomes back Simon Hunt, an expert on global economics, China, and the copper industry. Hunt discusses the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, driven by Trump's tariff policies and geopolitical ambitions. He explains that these tensions could lead to regional conflicts, with significant implications for global markets and supply chains. Hunt also explores the broader shift in global power dynamics, highlighting how nations like China, Russia, and Iran are strengthening ties through organizations like BRICS. He warns that U.S.-China trade disputes, including high tariffs on Chinese goods, are causing severe disruptions to global supply chains and manufacturing sectors. These disruptions are expected to lead to a global economic slowdown or recession. The conversation delves into the potential impact of these developments on financial markets, particularly the value of the dollar, which Hunt suggests may undergo significant changes as countries seek alternative currencies tied to gold. He also discusses copper's role as an economic barometer, predicting price volatility and eventual increases due to supply chain disruptions and long-term demand shifts. Hunt concludes by emphasizing the uncertainty and chaos that dominate the current geopolitical landscape, urging caution for businesses and investors as they navigate this complex environment. The episode ends with a note on the importance of staying informed about global developments to understand their far-reaching implications.

Byd a caccia di componentistica europea. E il colosso cinese sceglie l'Italia come prima tappa del road show che lo porterà a toccare tutti i Paesi europei dove c è una presenza importante di imprese del comparto automotive. Il produttore di Shenzhen ha puntato la bussola su Torino, una delle culle dell auto in Italia. La tre giorni parte oggi al Museo dell Auto di Torino, a pochi giorni dalla presentazione dell Atto 2, nuovo modello del marchio del Dragone che ha ormai ingaggiato una sfida diretta con Tesla. Sarà un confronto con le imprese che si sono iscritte all evento, realizzato in collaborazione con l Anfia. Una tre giorni da tutto esaurito: 380 le aziende della componentistica che parteciperanno. Alla plenaria ha partecipato Zhiqi He, vicepresidente e capo acquisti di Byd, che ha presentato i programmi della multinazionale cinese nel Vecchio Continente: due nuove fabbriche, una in Ungheria, che sarà operativa da questo autunno e l altra in Turchia, prevista per il 2026. Per evitare i dazi imposti dalla Ue sulle auto made in China, Byd fa il suo ingresso in Europa con due unità produttive e un ambizioso piano commerciale. A spiegare le rotte dell azienda ci sarà anche Alfredo Altavilla, special advisor di Byd e già braccio destro di Sergio Marchionne ai tempi di Fca. Altavilla, nel suo ruolo di consulente per le strategie europee, spinge perché l industria automobilistica cinese cominci, per la prima volta, a fornirsi di componentistica made in Italy. E quelle competenze, oggi frustrate dalla crisi dell auto e dal rallentamento di Stellantis, sono state individuate soprattutto nella filiera piemontese, più di 700 imprese e 20 miliardi di ricavi. Intervengono con il loro punto di vista Marco Stella, vice presidente di ANFIA e Presidente del Gruppo Componenti di ANFIA e Filomena Greco, Il Sole 24 ore.Prada, quattro settimane per l'acquisto di Versace Il gruppo Prada prova ad accelerare per l acquisizione di Versace. Secondo indiscrezioni la società del lusso che fa capo a Miuccia Prada e Patrizio Bertelli e guidata da Andrea Guerra avrebbe fissato quattro settimane di trattative in esclusiva con la multinazionale Capri Holdings, attuale proprietaria del brand di Donatella Versace. Le discussioni di Prada, anticipate dal Sole 24 Ore lo scorso 10 gennaio, entrano dunque in una fase cruciale. L unione potrebbe mettere sotto lo stesso tetto due brand leggendari e potrebbe segnare il ritorno del gruppo Prada all espansione tramite M&A: secondo indiscrezioni, all interno della famiglia sarebbe in corso una riflessione per valutare l impatto di una acquisizione di questo tipo.Il gruppo Prada è infatti cresciuto negli ultimi anni in maggior misura in modo organico. Nella prima metà degli anni 2000, invece, il gruppo aveva avviato una campagna di acquisizioni, sul modello delle grandi conglomerate del lusso francesi, per poi fermarsi successivamente. Tra le acquisizioni principali del passato ci sono state quelle di Helmut Lang per 40 milioni di dollari, di Jil Sander per 105 milioni di dollari, entrambe poi cedute, e del gruppo Church s per 170 milioni di dollari. Facciamo chiarezza con Carlo Festa, Il Sole 24 Ore.Campari corre in borsa sui 500 tagli al personale Taglio dei costi e razionalizzazione del portafoglio marchi di Campari. In attesa di presentarsi ufficialmente al mercato il 4 marzo per illustrare i conti annuali del gruppo milanese, conti che però non portano la sua firma, la sfida del top manager britannico Simon Hunt per risollevare la marginalità di Campari parte dalla sforbiciata ai costi. Secondo indiscrezioni di stampa, a un mese dal suo insediamento il nuovo ad del colosso italiano degli spirits ha preparato un primo intervento di risparmi con cui provare a invertire la china di un ebitda (590,7 milioni di euro) che a livello organico nei primi nove mesi dello scorso anno ha segnato una diminuzione del 2%, in calo drastico a due cifre (-14%) nel solo terzo trimestre. Le forbici si abbatteranno sui costi fissi e in particolare su quello del lavoro. Già a fine ottobre, in occasione della presentazione della trimestrale, Campari aveva fatto capire che la riorganizzazione avrebbe potuto coinvolgere anche il corpo dei dipendenti. Con 25 stabilimenti in giro per il mondo e una rete distributiva propria in oltre 26 Paesi, Campari impiega quasi 5 mila persone. Il piano di Hunt prevede che a livello globale venga ridotto del 10% il numero dei dipendenti, da mettere subito fuori perimetro, percentuale dunque che corrisponde a circa 500 addetti. Di questi, 100 lavoratori sono in Italia, inclusa una ventina di dirigenti. A questo potrebbe poi aggiungersi un ulteriore sforbiciata ad altri costi non ritenuti necessari. Ne parliamo con Giorgia Colucci, Radiocor.

Potrebbe essere già giunto al capolinea il governo di Michel Barnier, in Francia dopo solo due mesi. Oggi verranno discusse e poi votate (intorno alle 20) in Assemblea nazionale le mozioni di sfiducia nei confronti dell'esecutivo presentate dal Nuovo Fronte Popolare e dal Rassemblement National. Ieri in serata è arrivato l'ultimo appello di Barnier in un'intervista su Tf1. "Auspico, ed è possibile" che le due mozioni di sfiducia non vengano votate, ha dichiarato il primo ministro secondo cui se il governo cadesse "quasi 18 milioni di francesi vedranno aumentare le loro imposte sul reddito". Ottimista il presidente Macron: "Non posso credere che il Rassemblement National voterà la mozione di sfiducia del Nuovo Fronte Popolare". Macron ha invitato i legislatori francesi a mettere da parte le loro ambizioni personali e a rifiutare un voto che farebbe cadere il governo e getterebbe il Paese nello scompiglio politico. Secondo Politico, il prossimo nel mirino di Marine Le Pen sarebbe il presidente Emmanuel Macron. Ne abbiamo discusso con Danilo Ceccarelli - collaboratore de Il Sole 24 ore da Parigi.Campari fino a +5% in borsa sulla notizia del nuovo ADCampari scatta a Piazza Affari, arrivando a guadagnare circa cinque punti e festeggiando la notizia che è stato scelto un nuovo amministratore delegato che da gennaio guiderà il gruppo. Si tratta di Simon Hunt, che piace al mercato visto che vanta una esperienza di oltre 30 anni nel settore dei premium spirit. Subentra agli attuali co-Ceo ad interim Paolo Marchesini, chief financial and operating officer, e Fabio Di Fede, chief legal and M&A officer. A settembre, dopo soli 5 mesi in carica, Matteo Fantacchiotti, che aveva preso il posto di Bob Kunze-Concewitz, si era dimesso da Ceo e membro del Cda per motivi personali ed erano stati nominati i due co-Ceo. Il manager ha lavorato per le principali aziende del settore degli alcolici, maturando competenza nei mercati internazionali, in particolare nel mercato strategico degli Stati Uniti, così come nei mercati emergenti. Più recentemente, dopo due anni come consulente strategico per chief executive e cda di aziende di spirit premium, Simon Hunt è stato nominato nel 2022 ceo di Catalyst Spirits, un incubatore di marchi. Ne abbiamo parlato con Dino Pesole, Il Sole 24 Ore.Autotrasporto chiede al Ministro Salvini la convocazione del Tavolo al MITRiattivare il tavolo dell autotrasporto per affrontare i problemi del settore, fondamentale per la logistica e l economia del Paese. La richiesta di UNATRAS, il Coordinamento unitario delle principali associazioni nazionali dell autotrasporto, al Ministro delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti Matteo Salvini. L autotrasporto movimenta oltre due terzi delle merci trasportate in Italia ed è un elemento essenziale per il funzionamento della logistica, delle filiere produttive e distributive. Tuttavia, le imprese del comparto devono affrontare criticità crescenti, tra cui problemi economici, normativi e gestionali. Nella lettera inviata al Ministro Salvini -riportata di seguito- Unatras ribadisce l importanza della riattivazione del Tavolo per un confronto con il Governo su: sostegno economico per la transizione ecologica, tempi di pagamento e gestione tempi di carico e scarico, valori di riferimento dei costi di esercizio dell autotrasporto, decreti legislativi attuativi del Codice della Strada. Intanto le associazioni di settore sono alle prese con un problema di scarsità degli autisti e con una serie di richieste sindacali che potrebbero sfociare in uno sciopero il prossimo 9 e 10 dicembre. Ne abbiamo discusso con Sergio Lomonte, segretario della Confartigianato Trasporti.

Simon Hunt sees a vastly different world ahead, where BRICS nations turn the tables on Western hegemony by undermining the dollar in a currency war that will run alongside a kinetic war across the Middle East and Europe. Simon discusses why we are on the precipice of World War 3, how commodities will perform in a scenario of expanding global conflict, why gold holds the key to sheltering from the economic storm ahead, and much more.

Tom Bodrovics welcomes back consultant Simon Hunt to delve into the distinctions between Western-oriented and impartial perspectives in global analysis. Their conversation evolves around the potential threats to the West's global supremacy from the BRICS collective, spearheaded by China and Russia. This power transition could result in a loss of control over events and even the likelihood of war should diplomacy falter. The discussion also encompasses America's historic aim to fragment Russia, recent geopolitical strains, and potential clashes in Israel and Iran. Simon discusses the ongoing geopolitical stressors and their consequences for financial markets. Their discourse centers around the US-Russia confrontation, the influence of the deep state or neoconservatives on foreign policy, and the ramifications for oil prices, copper markets, and US equities and bonds. Simon posits that Russia's reaction to Western antagonisms will be restrained but impactful, potentially triggering a substantial increase in inflation and a readjustment of monetary policy. The conversation also explores the potential repercussions of crises in Ukraine and the Middle East on the global economy. Mr. Hunt discusses the motivations behind central banks and nations, specifically China, amassing vast quantities of gold as a safeguard against prospective currency devaluation and financial instability. He also voices his opinions on China's housing market collapse being an intended move by the government to lessen local governments' indebtedness and establish a foundation for future centralized fiscal and monetary policies if war occurs. Simon proposes that China is preparing for potential economic difficulties while maintaining a prudent stance in its fiscal and monetary policy. Simon explores various economic matters, such as demographic problems in both the US and China, the legitimacy of economic statistics, and his views on market trends over the next few years. He suggests that the US economy might be experiencing a recession based on authentic data like deflated retail sales and employment numbers, true inflation rates, and genuine unemployment figures, which he believes are more precise indicators of economic activity than formal GDP or CPI numbers. Simon asserts that numerous countries, including the US and much of Europe, are either in a recession or heading towards one. He also expresses apprehension over governments manipulating information and the increasing mistrust among people due to heightened awareness. In terms of market predictions, Simon anticipates a steep decline in global equity markets and base metals by early next year, followed by inflation and a surge in long-term interest rates, culminating in a collapse of the financial system by 2028.

Tom welcomes back Simon Hunt to the show. They discuss various economic and geopolitical issues shaping the global landscape. Topics range from potential conflicts and their impact on markets to the shift towards physical assets and a gold-backed monetary system. Simon touches upon underreported inflation, economic instability in America, China's role in reshaping the global economy, potential crisis scenarios, and the importance of diplomacy versus war. Simon is concerned about the risk of conflicts escalating, with Russia as a key player, and the emergence of gold-backed currencies to counteract perceived vulnerabilities in fiat currencies. Additionally, they discuss the significance of rising interest rates, potential crises, and implications for U.S. elections and global geopolitical outcomes. Throughout, Simon encourages caution and emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying economic trends and geopolitical dynamics.

Shift towards gold-backed currencies is inevitable as countries seek alternatives to perceived vulnerabilities in fiat currencies, with China and Russia likely taking a leading role. Diplomacy could prevent war, but tensions between the US and countries like Russia suggest that war may be an outcome if Washington continues to support the dollar at the expense of its treasury market.

This morning, Trevor connected with Simon Hunt of Simon Hunt Strategic Services. The premise of the conversation was to discuss the current copper market and China's involvement with the spot price. We do discuss this, including some of the latest news out of China's smelting capacity. But the conversation also provides a backdrop of geopolitical escalations with both Russia and Israel. These dynamics could have very powerful headwinds for the commodities complex, which Simon believes is getting ahead of itself at the current moment.

The last time Simon Hunt was on this channel, he predicted a rocky road ahead for the global economy, that will eventually culminate in the massive pile of $trillions in global unserviceable debt going into default causing a worldwide depression by 2025. Since his last appearance, the markets have become a lot more optimistic, US Q3 GDP hit 4.9% and inflation has marching downwards to 3% -- all positives. Though on the negative side, US deficits & debt balances have soared, leading economic indicators have fallen to recessionary levels, and the Middle East has been plunged into war. Today we'll ask commodities expert and geopolitical analyst Simon Hunt how any of this impacts his dire forecast for 2024/2025.

Tom welcomes back Simon Hunt to discuss the global economy and global political reality. Simon Hunt discusses the global economy and the rapidly declining trust between governments. Physical consumption of copper is weak and weakening, indicative of either being in a recession or entering one shortly. The various PMI indexes are pointing clearly to recession in the United States and savings rates are falling. Markets are propped up by the reported levels of employment, however he questions some of the data as companies are cutting hours. Europe is in a political mess with Germany in recession, and he expects the global economy to continue poorly into the fourth quarter. Russia understands America's role in the Ukraine War and it's clear the West wants to dismember Russia for control of their natural resources. He anticipates the leadership in Russia to soon take the gloves off with Ukraine, resulting in a dramatic decline in western Equity Markets by the end of the year. This coupled with an increase in the conflict will result in western Central Banks to flush the system with money, causing horrendous inflation and a rapidly falling dollar. Most G7 countries have severe demographic problems, particularly Germany, which could be their last decade as a powerful country due to lack of population. The BRICS+ nations have positive demographics and Iran is a sleeping giant with foreign investment pouring into the country exploring and developing their resources. Real war is coming to Ukraine when Russia takes the gloves off, forcing the West to make some hard choices. This could dramatically escalate should Nato may enter the war more openly. Iran has contingency plans in the event that Israel or the USA tries to intervene and they are fully capable of shutting down the straights of Hormuz. Simon believes there is not much time left for contingency planning by Western individuals and companies.

My returning guest on this episode of The Grant Williams Podcast is a dear friend of many years - Simon Hunt, founder and proprietor of Simon Hunt Strategic Services. Simon's experience in China over four decades has provided me with an important counterpoint to many Western-based views of the Middle Kingdom over the years - one firmly rooted in personal experience, deep personal connections and a willingness to look past consensus thinking. In this conversation, we discuss the status quo in China along with the wider geopolitical situation, Simon's roadmap for the next couple of years and... TRIGGER ALERT... we expand upon comments Simon made about non-consensus climate change possibilities during his last appearance on the podcast. Every episode of the Grant Williams podcast, including This Week In Doom, The End Game, The Super Terrific Happy Hour, The Narrative Game and Shifts Happen, is available to Copper, Silver and Gold Tier subscribers at my website www.Grant-Williams.com.

The last time today's guest expert was on this channel, he predicted a rocky road ahead for the global economy, that will eventually culminate in the massive pile of $trillions in global unserviceable debt going into default causing a worldwide depression by 2025. Since his last appearance, the markets have become a lot more optimistic, US GDP has perked up a bit, and inflation has been marching downwards -- albeit more slowly than the central banks would like. Today we'll ask copper expert & macro analyst Simon Hunt whether his dire forecast has improved at all. Or perhaps, gotten even worse. ************************************************* At Wealthion, we show you how to protect and build your wealth by learning from the world's top experts on finance and money.

Today, we are joined by Simon Hunt, who has decades of experience in the copper industry, for a conversation on the state of the global macro environment, both currently and in the years to come. We discuss climate change and the extreme implications it will have on our lives, how the current state of war will impact the economy and how we are on a path to very high inflation and interest rates.

Tom welcomes back Simon Hunt to discuss the global economy and the rapidly declining trust between governments. Simon notes that global trust is rapidly disintegrating, and often that trust is replaced by war. The Western economies are quite likely to flat line or enter into recession by the end of the year. Central Banks are more fearful of recession trends than inflation. In the end, their choice is either hyperinflation or recession. This winter we will see huge food inflation, driven both by policy and environmental problems. The world is going to have moderate growth, but inflation will be persistent across everything. It is human nature to stock up when prices are rising, which will exacerbate supply problems. Russia has determined that the West will not listen to their concerns. Therefore, they are taking steps to ensure their own survival. The American policy is clearly to control and collapse foreign economies. The BRICS nations have been trying to create alternatives to the West's systems. Simon is concerned with how America will respond when alternative currencies appear. Saudi Arabia has announced their intention to join the BRICS. Putin has recently stated, "The economy of mythical entities is inevitably being replaced with one of real value and assets." The pivot from the dollar has been in place for some time. Fed policy is only going to accelerate the process. By the middle of 2023 we will probably see a big fall in the dollar index. This will happen when Russia, China and others start operating with a new currency. Commodities under a new BRICS currency system will be used as a benchmark, and this will include gold. Tensions are likely to continue to worsen between China and the United States. When empires historically fail they are left with one option which is war. The U.S. is militarizing countries around China, including Taiwan. They are openly calling for Taiwan's independence. China wants to avoid war, as the next government in Taiwan is likely to move closer to China. Simon discusses commodities and where copper will likely head over the next couple of years. The LME has become very much a casino. He believes volatility will continue across all commodities. Managing and hedging that volatility will be crucial.
