Скачать или смотреть The War for Cheap Oil: China, Russia, Iran vs. The Fed (and Your Wallet)

Nothing can stop us — we’re all the way up. In this episode of the Money Matrix Podcast, Mayer Dallal, Jason Roth, and Alan Hastings break down what might be the most misunderstood geopolitical + financial story of the year: Venezuela, oil production, and how it directly affects U.S. inflation, home affordability, rate cuts, and global markets.

From the removal of Maduro, to China buying half of Venezuelan oil, to Russian tankers being seized in U.S. waters, and Iran entering a Day-Zero water crisis — the hosts tie it all back to mortgage rates, Fed policy, and where smart money positions itself during volatility.
