If I wanted the CIA's / MI6's opinion I'd turn on the TV.

[@iriscrocus1717]

very well said

[@oishibeats5476]

Best comment i heard the guy talking about "Other nations using proxys but not the G7" and i knew i had to turn off this video right away. Great comment doe, my thoughts exactly.

Requirement for getting an interview: "Must have a bookshelf behind you"

[@qake2021]

🤣🤣🤣👍😁😁😁

[@dustinmiller2775]

It's so true. Those shelves get smaller and smaller, too. I've seen like, ten books before.

[@deborahcurtis1385]

@@dustinmiller2775 Actually depending on the relevant field, some try to hide the books they are reading for security reasons. So only ten books could be deliberately misleading.

[@dougscott188]

I used to have a large bookshelf and after we sold our house I got rid of almost all of them and only read Kindle now. Saves a lot of space.

No credibilities

[@shinobudev]

Why? Is it not possible that it was really Russia? Or perhaps a combination of both? Why are we limiting ourselves to a black and white truth?

[@joemurray8902]

1: It was David Lin who mentioned it - and he said as recent - Nordstream is not recent. Lewis did not say anything about any pipeline. (go back and look - I did) 2: David was referencing the recent "suspicious" damage to the Balticconnector pipeline - which they are now are saying it was from a ship dragging its anchor accross the line. But they originally suspected Russia. And that is what David was talking about - but as I said Lewis never addressed it.

LOL!!!!

[@duperpokgab]

The irony is that everyone knows about the Taiwanese geopolitical risks. So while the threats are real, the general preparedness towards the possibility of such an outcome eliminates it as a black swan.

[@joemurray8902]

Good point!

[@MrGear]

It's been dumping and pumping in this range for ages! It's technically just going sideways, sideways means generally stagnant. More emphasis should be put into day trading, as it less affected by the unpredictable nature of the market. Trading has been going smooth for me as I managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 432k in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Tobias Hawke, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

[@MrGear]

Tobias Hawke program is widely available online..

[@cat6318]

Exploring new investment opportunities demonstrates your proactive stance towards financial growth during these volatile times. Diversifying your portfolio can play a crucial role in effectiveIy mitigating risks..

[@liwi46]

Over the years, I've been a part of numerous trading programs, sifting through a barrage of information. Yet, nothing has come close to the sheer clarity, depth, and precision of Tobias insights. It's akin to finding a diamond in a coal mine.

[@BCelt348]

Indeed, the recent market downturn serves as evidence that a vast majority of individuals lacked a sufficient understanding of the underlying financial dynamics at play.

[@LeoVillaraza]

Tobias gave me the autonomy I need to learn at my own pace and ask questions when I need to he’s so accommodating.

[@myutube8x]

You surely came prepared and conducted an excellent interview on this new important topic. And thank you for having this fantastic quest Lewis on, to fill in so many gaps for us. A+

This guy needs to listen to McGregor and Ritter for current Uke/Rooskie war situation. His view is summer 2020.

[@14Unow]

Taiwan biggest trading partner is China. Logically, that is where their future exists. If the West is interfering in this relationship and what is it hoping to achieve? Taiwan is historically a Chinese island and people there speak Chinese.

[@jennyadams108]

Very interesting and well informed guest. Thanks, David. I've steered well clear of any holding in Nvidia specifically because of the threat of China. Sooner or later, they will definitely take Taiwan, and I'm sure we'll only find out after the fact, by which time any investment there will be down the toilet. There has never been more geo-political stress or industrial espionage threat. Great interview 👍🏻

What a stupid guess!

That one single time did he say Hamas. That one single time did he say hooties. That one single time did he say Hezbollah. And this guy is a so-called expert?

Agreed. The Chinese prefer to win without any actual fighting and will stay on this course to its exhaustion or they get what they want. This could take decades, who knows what the world will be like then. Most of us will probably be dead.

Running of Guests to interview now you are resorting to interviewing Intelligent Officer, what's next? My suggestion you go through most of your past interviews over the last 12-15 months or so, narrow down on the possible outcomes that may happen over the next 6-9months use your own judgements and then inform us, rather than interviewing more and more people causing factual complexity and furthermore may cause confusions among viewers. I have stopped watching many of your interviews except those from Prof. Hanke.
