In this episode of Around the World, Mark dissects a market rally unfolding against a backdrop of global instability. From the on‑again, off‑again Iran conflict and its ripple effects on oil, inflation, and global trade, to the disconnect between deteriorating fundamentals and soaring asset prices, the episode explores how geopolitics, central banks, and doublethink are shaping today's market psychology. Along the way, Mark draws parallels to 1973 and 2000, examines valuations in equities and AI, questions the sustainability of the rally, and explains why Bitcoin, liquidity, and real assets may be telling a very different story beneath the headlines.

In this episode of Around the World, Mark breaks down how the sudden escalation of the Iran conflict is reshaping global markets and geopolitical risk. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has caused one of the largest oil supply disruptions in modern history, sending volatility surging as investors debate how high prices could go. We explore China's strategic stockpiling, Iran's escalating retaliation tactics, and the surprisingly muted initial market reaction despite growing evidence of a prolonged energy shock. With U.S. political odds shifting alongside rising gas prices and intensifying global debt pressures, the conflict is colliding with an already fragile economic backdrop. Equity markets may be cracking under the strain, with treasuries potentially failing to act as the traditional safe haven. The episode wraps with insights on crypto, commodities, and what this geopolitical realignment could mean for the months ahead. Want more?

Mark Yusko returns with his highly anticipated "Around the World: 10 Surprises for 2026," opening with a Top‑Gun‑worthy flyby through the global macro landscape before diving straight into the turbulence ahead. He breaks down the forces that could define the year: the K‑shaped economy, AI's outsized impact on GDP, the global debt bomb, the unraveling yen carry trade, Europe's political tightrope, China's long‑game positioning, and the next phase of Bitcoin's four‑year cycle. Mark explains why the risks everyone obsesses over often aren't the ones that matter, and where real opportunity tends to emerge when liquidity, psychology, and policy collide. As Viper reminds us, "A good pilot evaluates what's happened… so he can apply what he's learned." Want more?

In this year-end edition of Back Around The World, Mark Yusko unpacks the highs, lows, and jaw-dropping surprises that shaped the global economy in 2025. The year opened with markets at record highs and investor euphoria, only to be jolted by tariff wars, recession fears, and wild volatility. Tariffs dominated headlines for months, sparking trade tensions and policy uncertainty that rattled global markets. Meanwhile, AI optimism and tech valuations soared to levels rivaling the dot-com bubble, even as economic fundamentals weakened. Bitcoin reached new all-time highs, gold surpassed $3,000, and global liquidity fueled a stunning rebound across equities despite mounting debt and consumer stress. As the year closed, animal spirits returned, but questions linger about whether this rally is built to last. Join us as we turn back the tape to discuss an extraordinary year for markets. Want more?

In this episode of Around the World with Yusko, Mark Yusko applies Samuel Taylor Coleridge's concept of the "willing suspension of disbelief" to today's markets, challenging listeners to separate optimism from economic reality. From the birth of central banking to the AI-driven boom, Yusko traces how belief, leverage, and monetary policy have fueled centuries of speculative cycles. He examines bubbles from WeWork and Beyond Meat to nuclear startups and quantum computing, highlighting the widening gap between enthusiasm and the underlying fundamentals. Along the way, he contrasts fiat devaluation with the strength of scarce assets like gold and Bitcoin, dissects the "infinite money glitch" behind tech valuations, and considers what history suggests about the next correction. Blending sharp analysis and perspective, this episode offers a global, data-driven look at where he thinks we are in the investment cycle. Want more?
