ONE company at the center of the STORM

1 company at center of China-US spat... and it's not Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ A "soft landing?" More like the recession no one will name. It's a time of contradictions. The market is showing new strength, the Fed seems to be successfully walking the tightrope of controlling inflation without crushing the economy, and even China is easing up on lockdowns. However, the war in Ukraine continues and may soon intensify. (Don't miss Mr. X's column on this today.) The entire crypto industry hovers on the edge of the abyss. The debt-to-GDP ratio in countries throughout the world is hitting record highs. And while there are reasons for optimism about the economic situation in the United States, it's a far darker picture in the United Kingdom and Europe. I mean literally darker. Russia is attempting to blackmail the Continent (and Ukraine in particular) by increasing energy prices and bombing energy infrastructure in Ukraine. Even with these obstacles, I actually think the Fed could pull it off and guide the United States to, at worst, a mild recession that would control inflation, followed by a swift recovery. But the system can't handle even one more shock. Besides, if the last few years have shown us anything, it's that we must expect the unexpected. Below, you can read more about ONE company that is at the center of geopolitical tensions between China and the United States... and it's NOT Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM). Even just this one company has a massive impact on the global economy. In fact, it's something our own Mr. X has been focusing on... [and you can get the details here](. There are countless threats. A new COVID-19 strain, a shift in the military situation in Europe, instability in China, regime change in Iran... all these possibilities mean that investors need to be extremely conscious about managing their risk. There is a way to do this. Our goal at Rogue is to provide you with the tools you need to pursue extraordinary gains without leaving yourself open to crippling losses.

Keep Moving, [TRADECOMMAND]( perhaps the single greatest weapon ever put in the hands of Main Street investors. THE OFFENSIVE is already underway. [Don't be left behind.]( WORD ON THE STREET Congress Pushing Cannabis, Apple Bailing On China, Chip Conflict - One Company At The Center Of Geopolitics - ASML is not a household name, but it should be. It produces chipmaking equipment that is essential for companies and countries to compete in the high-tech market. After American pressure, the Dutch company has reportedly been prevented from exporting cutting-edge extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) machines to China. However, ASML is reportedly hoping for export controls to be lifted next year, worrying American policymakers who don't want China to have access to these powerful devices. For more information on this issue and the companies involved, [don't miss Mr. X's special report](. - Cannabis Companies May See Green - Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and some unlikely Republican allies are reportedly considering legislation that would ease cannabis companies' access to banking services. The Secure and Fair Enforcement (SAFE) Banking Act would remove the federal obstacles that prevent cannabis companies from getting loans or opening bank accounts, even in states where cannabis is legal. Reports indicate that the Senate may pass the bill before it adjourns for the last time this year. The newest "growth" market - The Last Lockdown - China is easing up on its utterly unrealistic "zero-COVID" policy, but it may be too little, too late for Apple. Weary of lockdowns, fights between workers and security, and political tension, Apple is reportedly looking to move some iPhone production out of China. The main beneficiaries - India and Vietnam, Asian powers eager to avoid Chinese economic or military hegemony.  - Good News Is Bad News - When it comes to investing, it's all about expectations and optics. So seemingly good news from Friday - reports that show the economy is running hotter than expected - may pose a problem. Both payrolls and wage growth in November exceeded what analysts predicted. Yet that may convince the Federal Reserve that it isn't doing enough to stop inflation. The result would be yet another 0.75 basis points interest rate hike this month. That would be a heavy blow for growth stocks, especially because the market was beginning to think we were past all this. Trade of the Decade: The Most Critical Stock to Own Now Mr. X identifies “the most important company that you’ve never heard of…” and how you can take advantage of it to reap potentially life-changing profits. [Click the link here before it’s too late.]( HOT SPOTS: What's Going on in Geopolitics - Oil Wars - After months of negotiations, the European Union may finally ban Russian seaborne crude oil. G-7 members will also impose a price cap on Russian oil. However, China and India show no indication of going along with this scheme. More importantly, OPEC+ is remaining committed to a process of production cuts until the end of the year. The more OPEC+ can raise prices, the more money Russia can earn from exports around the world - regardless of what Europe says about it. - Iranian Government Looking WEAK – Rocked by months of protests that it hasn't been able to quell, Iran's theocratic government just blinked. Iran has reportedly abolished its "Guidance Patrol," aka the Morality Police, whose repression sparked the whole movement. Iran's government may be trying to soften its image, but anti-regime protesters may now smell blood in the water. - Russia Pounds Away At Bakhmut - In a battle that looks like something out of World War I (only with drones), Russia continues to surround and shell the city of Bakhmut. While massive artillery barrages and trench warfare are still standard, Russian troops have also changed their strategy by using small squads to try to penetrate Ukrainian trenches piecemeal. The attacks are often led by members of the Wagner Group, a private military company tied to the Kremlin. Some of its recruits are convicts, who decided to take their chances on the Ukrainian killing fields rather than the Russian prison yards. CUTTING EDGE: What[']( Happening In Tech - "Triple Threat" Of Disease Rocks LA County - A combination no one wants - the flu, COVID-19, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) - is hitting residents of Los Angeles county hard as cases surge. The flu positivity rate in Los Angeles hit an unheard of 25%, even as COVID-19 and RSV tick upward.  - Musk Releasing "The Twitter Files" – Sparking an uproar among journalists and politicans, Elon Musk has been releasing information about Twitter's prior content moderation policies, including from the 2020 election. Conservatives have been especially infuriated about the revelation that Joe Biden's campaign seemed to have a great deal of influence at Twitter in 2020. Musk says that at first glance, there was a "very different standard applied to Republican candidates in the U.S. versus Democrat candidates." Critics say that Musk is creating an unsafe environment for Twitter as a whole and for former moderators in particular. - Genesis On The Hook For $1.8 Billion - Coin Desk reports that crypto platform Genesis reportedly owes $1.8 billion to various creditors. In particular, crypto exchange Gemini - the firm run by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss - is owed $900 million after Genesis halted withdrawals. As the fallout from FTX's collapse spreads, thousands of frustrated crypto investors can't withdraw their frozen funds FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION “With the West pushing for regime change and Russia using Belarus as a hostage, Lukashenko may believe there is no way out… except through Kyiv.” has been the staging area for Russia's invasion of Ukraine and is often considered nothing but a protectorate. However, Belarus has fiercely avoided direct participation in the conflict... but that may be changing. With Belarus's President Aleksandr Lukashenko speaking of Russia and Belarussian troops as a "single army," the war could be entering a new stage. Mr. X explains the terrifying possibilities.
