The MacroTourist, Kevin Muir, joins Maggie Lake with a blunt warning: regardless of how the Iran war ends, the world has permanently changed, and investors who fail to reposition will get caught on the wrong side. Kevin argues that the post-World War II guarantee of free and open global trade is unwinding, and that even a perfect ceasefire cannot restore the assumptions markets were built on. Separately, he lays out why he now expects a "real accident" in big tech, with the Mag 7 free cash flow to EPS ratio already collapsed to 0.40, and why a famous bond bear is cautiously buying the long end for the first time in years. He also explains why the People's Bank of China quietly remains the most important gold buyer nobody is talking about, and why hard assets and miners are finally getting institutional bids after a decade of neglect. And in a surprise pivot, the famous bond bear tells Maggie that for the first time in years, he thinks long bonds aren't a bad place to be.
