Episode Notes

In the December podcast, we warned that 2022 could resemble 2018 – a year when the Federal Reserve tried to taper, which triggered a mini stock market crash. And now, we start the year with great turbulence. This time, however, a mix of macroeconomic and geopolitical risk emanating from Russia and Ukraine have kept investors on edge.

To help us unpack these developments, we turn to Lev Borodovsky, the editor of The Daily Shot newsletter. Geopolitics
