Summary

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey are joined by Kevin Duffy. Kevin is the founder and editor of The Coffee Can Portfolio newsletter. He's also co-founder and principal of the investment-management firm Bearing Asset Management.

Kevin kicks off the show by talking about The Coffee Can Portfolio, the investors who have inspired his work, and his outlook on some long-term secular trends, including fiat currencies. He explains that most trends today harken back to the American Revolution, as that was when centralization really began in the U.S. Kevin walks listeners through several key points in history that got us to where we are today. Plus, he explores the false beliefs of the dot-com boom, the market's current euphoria around AI, and the obvious threat to Nvidia that many investors are overlooking. (0:42)

Next, Kevin dives deep on China. He discusses what he has learned by studying the country's stock market, why he's bullish on Chinese stocks, and the 50% discount that these stocks offer. Using Japan as an example, Kevin advises listeners to always question the popular economic narrative, as it can be completely wrong, especially at the end of major manias. He says the biggest culprits behind China's negative narrative today are the U.S. government and misplaced anger over worsening living standards. (18:45)

Finally, Kevin talks about the flaws in modern economics and financial logic, the importance of educating oneself on economics and learning from past mistakes, and the future consequences of the U.S. isolating itself while the rest of the world comes together. He says there are still some stock opportunities in the U.S., but the best opportunities are in Asia. (37:14)
