Where the Reckoning Will Be Felt

📘Read Steven Feldman’s full 2026 Outlook for a deeper look at the risks and realities that will shape investing, macro, markets, and geopolitics this year: https://wealthion.com/hubfs/Reports/2026Outlook.pdf

Steven Feldman, CEO and Co-Founder of Wealthion, joins Maggie Lake to share his 2026 outlook and explain why markets may be entering a period of reckoning, as debt, geopolitics, and hard math collide. Feldman argues that years of comforting narratives, from risk-free Treasuries to endless Fed support, are giving way to fiscal dominance, rising geopolitical risk, and stretched market valuations. He discusses why the Treasury market sits at the center of risk, why war and asymmetric conflict are the biggest global threats, and why the traditional 60/40 portfolio no longer works as intended. The conversation also explores gold and real assets, AI beyond the hype, cash as a strategic position, and why 2026 could bring a wave of major mergers. Steven’s message is clear: this isn’t about panic, it’s about preparation.

Plus, Steven announces his new Wealthion show, Unhedged, focused on straight talk and authentic conversations, coming soon!
