Hello, Smart Money Tree podcast listeners.

Welcome to this week's show.

My name's Kirk Chisholm and I will be your host.

So today we're talking with my good friend Richard Duncan.

How are you today, Richard?

Very well. Kirk, thank you for having me back on.

Well, Richard's a friend. He's been on the show a few times. Great content. We wanted to bring

them back, especially because of what's going on in the markets. We thought, who better to explain

this than Richard. So for the listeners who haven't heard you before, Richard, tell us a little bit about your background. Okay. I have spent all of my career really living and working in Asia. I moved out to

Hong Kong when I was 25 and started working as a securities analyst and have worked in Hong Kong and

Singapore and Thailand a few times each as an analyst initially and an economist, a strategist.

I worked at the World Bank in Washington for a couple of years. I was the head of global

investment strategy for ABN Amro Asset Management in London for a few years, looking at all the asset classes globally.

And along the way, I've written four books.

Most recent one is called The Money Revolution, How to Finance the Next American Century.

And my business now is MacroWatch.

MacroWatch is a video newsletter that I sell on a subscription basis. So I've been doing

that for 10 years. Well, glad to have you back in the show. Love your content. Richard,

you know, the world's changed a lot in the last two years. You know, I think that most people don't

realize that we've kind of gone through this paradigm shift.
