SI347: Stagflation, Storytelling, and the Search for a New Hero ft. Cem Karsan

SI347: Stagflation, Storytelling, and the Search for a New Hero ft. Cem Karsan

Today Cem and Niels dissect a world quietly shifting beneath our feet.

As markets hum along, Cem explains why the real story lies beneath the surface: a structural liquidity drain, a creeping stagflation that defies familiar playbooks, and a political regime shift few are pricing in. From Buffett’s exit to dollar fragility, elite endowments tapping the bond market, and oil diplomacy with geopolitical undertones—this is a conversation about change in motion.

But this episode doesn’t stop at markets. It’s about the narrative arc of societies under stress—about whether the West can summon the unity and courage to face its next great test.

Insightful, urgent, and layered - this is the episode you will look back on and say: the clues were all there.
