Ripple Effect — June 25, 2025
The people of New York City went to the polls yesterday, picking the upstart do-gooder Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old immigrant, to be the city’s next mayor.
Mamandi ran as a full-throated socialist with retread policies like freezing rents and government-run grocery stores… because, well, those kinds of policies worked so well in the Soviet Union, to name one historic place to mandate them.
Guess what happened after voters checked the box for Mamdani? They fired up Google to search the term “socialism”: As Nancy Pelosi once quipped about Obamacare, “We have to pass the bill to see what’s in it.” (Yes, she really did say that.)
This is a fair warning to the people of New York City: when you vote on “the vibe” rather than common sense, bad results are likely.
Mamdani still faces the general election. Historically, Democrats have a significant advantage in the Five Boros. But on occasion, Republicans win – think Rudy Giuliani and Mike Bloomberg.
Still, even in the mayoral race, Mamdani was running against the “fascist” Donald Trump.
“Fascism” – another buzzword hyped up nationwide by AOC and Bernie Sanders – is sure to send people to Google search, too.
Our forecast: People and smart money will continue to leave New York. Those on the receiving end, such as Texas, home to the New York Stock Exchange’s latest location, will benefit.
~ Addison  The United Nationsl General Assembly isn’t typically a headline-grabber. But the upcoming Assembly— beginning on September 9 — has an air of great urgency, because a major announcement could be forthcoming. The potential bombshell announcement? Well, it concerns a classified map of a “secret America" from 1946 — a map whose expanded U.S. borders could go into effect in 2025. If enacted, this wildly controversial map would grant the federal government astonishing economic, societal, and military power. But the investment implications could be even bigger.

In advance of our conversation about the passage of the GENIUS Act in the US Senate, and what that means for the future of money and banking, I wanted to share a reader's email following advice from our colleagues who had this to say about investing in Ian King’s #1 stock for 2024: "I started investing in PLTR in the third quarter of 2024 when I joined [10X Stocks]. My initial investment was $5000, when the stock was $24 something. When it doubled within 2-3 months, I invested another $10k, and by Christmas morning, my earnings hit $30k, hence “My Miracle Fund” because I was planning a pilgrimage trip, taking my daughter, son-in-law & 2 grandchildren this coming September 2025. In January 2025, I invested another $7k, for a total investment of $22k. As of today, Wednesday, June 18th, my total earnings are $67,714.36!!! Since the trip is in Europe, I’m hoping to upgrade our flights for the trip, thanks to PLTR." --Pat K from Florence, KY Ian’s a great guy… a family man.
