Links discussed on today's show:
- Been reading Chokepoints as I have previously noted - a critical book for understanding the leverage that economic (and financial) chokepoints provide, and an important work in light of the heavily intertwined US and Chinese economies.
- An excellent Deutsche research piece on the "return of history" as gold is set to become a potentially dominant presence in global central bank reserves.
- And as noted, the Back Mechanic, a book kindly recommended to me by a podcast listener on getting your back in shape and avoiding the kind of trauma I am currently suffering with a herniated disk.
