George Friedman Interview

John Thomas, The Mad Hedge Fund Trader, interviewed George Friedman of STRATFOR earlier this month. Whilst Thomas' site's name and his interview intro's are a little schmaltzy, he has a fairly impressive background.

The interview touches on Russia, Iran/ the Middle East, oil, Poland, Turkey, China and Japan among other things. All in a geo-political/ investment context. Friedman gives some pretty contrarian views in the second half of the interview - for example, he's long Japan. Seriously.

It's 40 mins long and a must listen. Interview here.
