Doomberg The Gloves are off With China

Doomberg stops by the Energy News Beat and Energy Impacts Podcast with Stu Turley and David Blackmon . Doomberg lays out the massive topic of trade wars with China and the global impact on the financial markets. What are investors and consumers thinking? In this engaging discussion, they explore China’s dominance in rare earth minerals, the U.S. response to growing supply chain risks, and how geopolitical tensions are reshaping global trade alliances. From the future of energy independence to the economic fallout of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Doomberg brings sharp analysis and thought-provoking insights on the shifting balance of power across nations. I absolutely love my time with Doomberg, but it was extremely cool when he recognized Dave’s name as we flashed his comment live on the screen. Doomberg appreciated Dave’s subscription, and this was just cool. We will see an end to the Russian war soon, and we need to keep the war mongers out of the decision-making positions. Doomberg is a national treasure.
