In this interview, independent investor and Actionable Intelligence Alert publisher John Polomny joins us to discuss why investors may be dangerously underestimating the geopolitical and economic consequences of the Strait of Hormuz crisis. John explains how disruptions to global energy flows could trigger higher oil prices, food inflation, supply chain realignments, and a new commodity bull market. The conversation covers the AI ​​stock boom versus resource investing, structural shortages in energy and critical minerals, the outlook for uranium, copper, agriculture, frontier market opportunities such as Uzbekistan, and how investors can position themselves for what John believes could be one of the most important macroeconomic shifts of the coming decade.
