Joining Maggie Lake, Lyn breaks down **fiscal dominance**, why government deficits may be undermining the Fed's fight against inflation, and the widening divide between Wall Street and everyday Americans.
She makes the case for **gold, silver, copper and energy**, explains why she's not abandoning stocks, and examines whether the massive AI spending boom is creating new risks for investors. She also reveals why the demand for commodities goes far beyond data centers — and why profitable companies may have the edge.
Lyn also takes us inside **Orange Juice**, her approach to acquiring small businesses for the long term, combining permanent ownership with a Bitcoin treasury and helping companies harness AI without the short-term pressures of traditional private equity.
