Today's episode of the Real Vision Daily Briefing is sponsored by Calche.

We've talked about a few key events on this show recently, notably the debt ceiling negotiation

going on right now, and we've come across a platform that allows you to trade directly on its outcome.

what Biden's approval rating will be next month, and much more. Calche's event contracts

allow you a chance to profit from being right about where the world is heading in targeted ways,
