  • the spice and the ledger

    HH being his usual poetic self. i always think of him as the finance poet. he outdid his brilliant self on this podcast. i'm a designer navigating the financial world looking at alien visual cues. HH paints a picture that i partly understand.

    perfect for people not from a finance background as he uses lots of metaphors to paint the picture.

    to HH, i knew you were special when i first heard you with raoul pal and the conversations were akin to jazz improv. ❤️‍🔥

  • Hugh rocks.

    I love this podcast. I own a business in China that trades internationally. Hugh is very much in my vibe. Entertaining and maybe half useful (which would be a first for a finance show…). Keep them coming.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Acid Breath - The Deal - 8th October 2025
Q: What is your exit strategy for trades that are successful?
Hugh suggests trimming successful investments when they significantly exceed their one year moving average, while keeping the option to reinvest when prices revert.
Acid Therapy - Episode 1
Q: Is it out of control? And even if it were out of control, what does that mean?
It's unusual but reflecting on my past, it seems normal to me.
Acid Therapy - Episode 1
Q: So how is it for you now? Like, is it OK? Is it? Are you happy about it? Is it hard?
I'm attempting to manage my feelings amidst the separation.
The Path to Serfdom
Q: What's your take on the narrative that we've been living in an economic depression since 2008?
Hugh states that the trend growth rate in GDP has been far below the historical average and attributes this to larger systemic issues, including policy decisions and global economic shifts.
Fools Gold: The ACID Capitalist Reveals How to Trade Gold
Q: How do you reason if stocks go down 20% and you say, okay, it's time to buy stocks, but you don't know where the bottom is?
You can't do that unless you sell today. You've got to risk that it goes up another 20%.
