Those were the words of George Friedman on April 5, at the Geopolitical Futures conference, The Next 4 Years: The Role of the United States in the World.

George added that President Trump may have to “make a decision” on North Korea, and that it will be “based on imperfect data.”

Harald Malmgren—who was an advisor to the Blue House (the residence of the South Korean head of state) in the 1980s—pitched in that the disarray dogging South Korean politics means now is the “perfect moment for China and the United States to decide what should be done.”

Since the conference, tensions and sniping have escalated further. Has nuclear war truly become thinkable again?

Almost everyone is looking on aghast. Note the surge in interest in online searches for “North Korea”:

But unfortunately, as I found out at Geopolitical Futures’ eye-opening conference, the North Korean problem is just one of many geopolitical issues that are converging and reaching critical mass.

And these issues are not just world-changing, but life-changing for all of us—not to mention the effects they will have on the markets and your investments.

It pays to be prepared. And for the next 48 hours, you can take an important step in doing just that—by securing an Audio Pass to listen to every insight and forecast from The Next 4 Years: The Role of the United States in the World. 

Sincerely,

P.S. I was far from the only attendee who thought the conference was eye-opening. Here’s a brief selection of the feedback it has received: “Superb”… “Please have a follow-up in a year or so”… “So thankful I attended”… “I would have paid double.”

Double the conference ticket price would be close to $3,000. But for the next 48 hours only, you can get an Audio Pass for just $199 and learn what’s coming next.
