Simon Hunt: Food Shortages, War, Inflation & Why 2030 Changes Everything

Is the world witnessing the collapse of the post-World War II financial order?

In this episode of Connecting The Dots, Farzin Irani sits down with renowned geopolitical strategist and economic forecaster Simon Hunt, whose research into long-term economic cycles, commodities, China and global power shifts has influenced governments, financial institutions and multinational corporations for decades.

Simon shares his outlook on why the world may be entering a period unlike anything seen since the 1970s—and why the biggest risks may still lie ahead.

The conversation explores the changing balance of power between the United States, China and Russia, the future of the US dollar, the role of gold in a multipolar financial system, energy security, food shortages, inflation, and the possibility of a global financial reset during the coming decade.

Whether you agree with Simon's conclusions or not, this discussion challenges conventional thinking and encourages viewers to look beyond today's headlines.

Topics covered:

• Is a new world order already emerging?

• Why the Middle East matters more than ever

• China, Russia and the future of global finance

• The end of the petrodollar?

• Gold, commodities and long-term inflation

• Why food could become the world's biggest strategic asset

• What investors should prepare for between now and 2030
