Thoughts from the Frontline explores developments overlooked by mainstream news and analyzes challenges and opportunities on the horizon.

The newsletter began as John’s way of sharing his thoughts with a few associates. Two decades later, it is one of the most widely read investment newsletters in the world.

"Central bankers, businessmen, and investors continually try to beat History to a pulp, but History always wins the final rounds."
