Marin Katusa joins The Big Trade Series for a Game of Thrones-esque discussion on geopolitics. Marin begins the conversation by recounting the stories he covered in his book “The Colder War” and providing updates to those stories. The discussion progresses into geopolitics, covering the dispute in South China Sea, oil and gas, and military contracts. Marin explains why Putin has such a strong hold on Russia and Putin’s long term strategy to make Russia a global superpower. The two shift to discuss the influence of the BRICS Bank and their reserve currency. Peter then shares his thoughts on ISIS’ revenue generating system as a black swan. Marin concludes the conversation by discussing his approach to investing.
