Israel is Not Hamas’ Final Solution – Ep 207
https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/intellectualinvestor/Ep_207_-_Israel_is_Not_Hamas_Final_Solution.mp3

My Thoughts on the Economy – Ep 204
https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/intellectualinvestor/My_thoughts_on_the_economy_v2_2023-10-17.mp3
I just finished a fifteen-page seasonal letter to IMA clients. It discusses the economy and the positioning of our stock portfolio, as well as China, fossil fuels, AI, and unions. I will share excerpts from it over the next few weeks, starting today with a section that discusses our thoughts on the economy.
Though the official purpose of writing this was to get you close to my thinking about the economy and the stock market, to be honest, I have very little new to say. I suggest you reread my succinct letter from March 2023.
I have written this more selfishly to crystallize my thinking. This way, you and I will figure out what I think together. Thus, the following reads more like a listicle rather than an essay where all thoughts must flow from one to another.
