Jacob Shapiro: Trump Has Two Weeks to End This War
Geopolitical analyst Jacob Shapiro joins Maggie Lake to break down the long-term impact of the Iran War on oil, food prices, and global supply chains. Jacob explains why fertilizer disruptions have already locked in higher food prices for the next six to nine months, and draws a direct line between food price spikes and the Arab Spring. He argues Trump has a two-week window to end this war before a "really, really rough second half of the year" becomes unavoidable. Jacob also makes his contrarian case against investing in the Gulf and explains why China is the most important long-term question coming out of this conflict.
