China's Hold on Congolese Cobalt || Peter Zeihan

Cobalt is critical for modern batteries, but with over half of global production coming from the Democratic Republic of Congo, it represents one of the great geopolitical vulnerabilities. China controls most of the Cobalt mining in the Congo through coercive labor systems, so if China's system continues on its current path...Cobalt production will crash. Filling China's shoes in Congo is no easy feat. Foreign stabilization and oversight are difficult and aren't likely to come from Western governments. So, Cobalt supplies will collapse. Either the world will find a way forward with less Cobalt, or we'll get really good at recycling it. The scariest piece is that Cobalt isn't the only critical material that's vulnerable, so the era of easy tech advancement powered by cheap, abundant inputs is coming to an end.

What Is Zelensky's Political Future? || Peter Zeihan

Volodymyr Zelensky’s historical legacy is still being written. Sure, he's remained highly popular as a wartime leader and would likely be reelected if elections were held tomorrow.

The Democrats Are Screwed, Too || Peter Zeihan

What Does Life After Donald Trump Look Like? || Peter Zeihan

Trump has adopted a leadership style similar to that of Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin. That means power is solely concentrated around him, and the party ideology and institutional foundation have been weakened. Without Trump, the Republican Party has no life force.

Does the Trump Administration Know What's Going On? || Peter Zeihan

On the whole, most presidential administrations have limited awareness of things like demographics, trade, geopolitics, and industrial policy. Naturally, government officials view things through a narrow lens corresponding to their background, such as business or academia. So, that's the baseline here.

Back to the Glory Days of the Spice Trade || Peter Zeihan

Global trade was once fragmented into many regional economies.

So, what can we learn from the glory days of the spice trade? Join the Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/PeterZeihan Full Newsletter: https://bit.ly/4dnPf63

Project Vault Doesn't Solve the Mineral Problem || Peter Zeihan

Project Vault, the Trump administration's initiative to stockpile critical minerals, is just a small step in the right direction. Sure, buying mineral-rich waste helps the U.S. build reserves, but it's a classic case of giving the man a fish vs. teaching him how to fish.
