In the 2000s, we all shoveled money into China and emerging markets. And in the 2010s, we had eyes for nothing but software and American exceptionalism. So what’s next? That’s the question Jawad Mian, founder and managing editor of Stray Reflections, tries to answer on this week’s Merryn Talks Money.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 413, published last September 15, 2014. Jawad S. Mian is the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of TGSF (The Good Society Fund) Advisors. He's also the Editor of the "Stray Reflections" monthly investment newsletter. Based in Dubai, Mian is an expert on Dubai, Qatar and Middle Eastern investments. Mian discusses Dubai as a travel and living destination. He also shares the investment opportunities available in Dubai, Iran and Iraq. Jawad Mian was born on a cloudless January night in 1984. He originally hails from Pakistan but was born and raised amid very high temperatures in United Arab Emirates. His initial plan was to become a doctor, then a lawyer, but fell in love with the global macro world instead. He survived seven cold winters in Canada during which he studied finance and economics at The University of Western Ontario and started his career as a bank teller. To his surprise, he would go on to obtain the CFA and CMT charter after tireless effort. Most recently, he ran $250 million across global markets for a Middle East based quasi-sovereign entity. He left to start-up his own fund. He was last seen sporting a beard and getting ready for a journey no one knew anything about, not even him. Every month, he sends us his thoughts from the road… Visit Stray Reflections at www.stray-reflections.com.
