Simon Hunt joins Small Caps to share his views on the geopolitical situation around the world, including the state of the economy, the US dollar being replaced in trade, the introduction of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), BRICS+ currencies to adopt a commodity backing, the value of gold, interest rate predictions and the rise of BRICS+.

Simon began his career in Central Africa as a PA to the chairman of Rhodesian Selection Trust, one of the two large companies in the then Northern Rhodesia, now Zambia. The copper group was Anglo American.

In 1961, he returned to the UK joining Anglo American Corporation of South Africa as a PA to a board director which included being part of a small copper sales and marketing team.

He then helped to establish a new copper development organisation, CIDEC, financed by copper producers where he focused on conducting end use studies in Europe.

He then went to London City to gain financial experience followed by forming Brook Hunt & Associates in 1975. He was instrumental in setting up the group’s cost studies which have become a bible for the industry and end use analyses.

He acted for the US copper producers in two ITC anti-dumping cases as both consultant and material witness in 1978 and 1984 winning both at the commission level.

Since 1993, he has spent 2-4 months every year in China visiting some 80 factories across the country every year.

In 1996, Simon founded Simon Hunt Strategic Services. The focus of the company’s work is to provide strategic advice including geopolitical and financial developments as well as structural and tactical changes within China in order to produce a balance outlook for the supply of and demand for copper.

Increasingly the work involves understanding the shifts taking place in the balance of global power including how BRICS+ will change the dynamics of the world and how these changes will impact the copper industry.

He is also on the board of directors the Great Eastern Gold Company in Australia and Copperman in Chile.

    Great interview. This guy plays it like chess looking many moves ahead. It all makes sense. Only 1 thing missing. A millitary nation in decline is a dangerous one!
  • @jimmetan7031
    Mr Simon Hunt makes it so simple for me to understand. Thank You.
  • @adamday2067
    One of the best economic assessments I've seen and heard on YouTube. Please get Simon back again !
  • The USA DEBT Ceiling will in all probability be raised, heading towards $35TRILLION. This is bad, but it is especially bad if interest rates rise to 5%...What used to be the norm. Imagine at 5% p.a....This would equate to $2Trillion every year! So the debt ceiling would have to be raised by at least $2TRILLION every year just to maintain the status quo.....It is obvious to anyone that the USA cannot reduce it's Debt. Then there is the PRIVATE DEBT, which is ten times worse. No much wonder that banks and companies are going bust. This is not like the Great Depression which happened almost overnight, This is much much worse and is like trying to hold back the tide....Sooner or later the tide overwhelmes everybody....

    Love listening to Mr. Hunt. I always look for his interviews on youtube.
  • @suganj6635
    Great interview, bring him again 👍
  • @MichaelCali
    Interviewer: PLEASE listen then follow up with appropriate questions: Why will derivatives market collapse when Iran blocks the Straits by sinking two battleships? Why will commodities fall after skyrocketing as the dollar falls and the Brics dollar takes over.... please ask questions based on his comments
  • @PatSika
    Excellent interview…always enjoy listening to you Mr Hunt. Thanks to both of you.
  • Brilliant, wonderful! Thank you. The reason I know Simon is worth listening to is that he agrees with everything I believe.😊
  • I’m impressed you got a smile out of captain black pill for the video thumbnail 😂 Jokes aside Simon has his fingers on the pulse! He knows where all the canaries are!
  • It was an eye-opening interview. The China-Russia plan to dethrone the dollar and all the global trade avoiding the dollar makes me want to invest in gold and copper.
  • @sonialola4329
    Thank you so very much for having Simon on. He is so informative so wonderful thank you thank you thank you blessings from California.
  • @BathshebaE1
    In an interview over a year ago he predicted $10 copper, not even close. And he's supposed to be a copper expert. How much confidence do you have with his predictions of other markets?
  • @IgorRozinov
    Excellent content and the fact he looks like Brick Top delivering this information makes it even stronger.
