After this Goose Hunting Season, Don’t Expect Any Golden Eggs
Prosperity is easily taken for granted. It’s even easier to lose. But rarely has it faced such an all-out assault on so many fronts.
Nickolai Hubble is a seasoned analyst with expertise in global economics and its ramifications for Australian investors.
Nick serves as the editor of Jim Rickards’ Strategic Intelligence Australia, where he collaborates with renowned economist and Wall Street lawyer, Jim Rickards. Together, they provide strategic insights to navigate potential financial crises, safeguard wealth, and unearth investment opportunities.
Nick is the author of the books How the Euro Dies and Threat Zero, as well as the editor of UK-based publications The Fleet Street Letter and Fortune & Freedom alongside UK politician Nigel Farage.
After graduating with finance and law from Bond University in 2009 thanks to a scholarship from the investment bank Goldman Sachs, Nickolai gained invaluable insights during his internship with the investment bank at the zenith of the financial crisis – an experience that further solidified his perspective on the volatile dynamics of the financial world.
Opting for the road less travelled, he sidestepped working for traditional investment banks, instead choosing to enlighten investors by writing the newsletters that had predicted the 2008 crisis. In 2012, his critical insights into the sub-prime antics of Australian banks came to the fore with later vindication by a 2018 Royal Commission.
His predictions have often been prescient, such as forecasting Italy’s 2018 budget conflicts leading to a turbulent ‘Bloody October’, the inflationary spike of 2021, and the implausibility of Net Zero.
