<p>Mentor Sessions Ep. 077: US Iran Failure, Bitcoin Bear Market Over &amp; Yield Curve Control | Doomberg &amp; James Lavish</p><p><br></p><p>The Iran ceasefire just reshuffled global energy, dollar dominance, and Bitcoin&#39;s role as sound money — James Doomberg breaks down what it actually means for your portfolio in 2026.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, Nathan sits down with James Doomberg — one of the sharpest macro and energy analysts in the space — to unpack the cascade of events reshaping markets right now. You&#39;ll learn why the Iran ceasefire is a bigger geopolitical pivot than most investors realize, how the SpaceX IPO may function as a financial suppression tool for retail capital, and why Doomberg believes energy markets are sending misleading signals driven by Chinese demand dynamics and a global overbuild. You&#39;ll also see exactly why Bitcoin and gold are rising in tandem — and why Doomberg argues monetary debasement makes that trend structural, not cyclical. Finally, you&#39;ll understand what yield curve control would mean for bond holders and why the K-shaped economy is deepening in ways that make sound money more critical than ever.</p><p><br></p><p>• Sovereign Sessions — AI, Privacy, and Bitcoin education: http://youtube.com/@SovereignSessions?sub_confirmation=1</p><p><br></p><p>⏱️ Timestamps:</p><p>00:00 Bitcoin Bear Market is Over</p><p>00:10 The Iran War Outcome</p><p>00:26 China Flexes Oil Power</p><p>00:35 K-Shaped Economy &amp; Credit Card Defaults</p><p>00:43 Yield Curve Control &amp; Money Printing</p><p>00:52 SpaceX as Financial Suppression</p><p>01:09 Intro &amp; Context</p><p>06:25 US Achieved None of Its Objectives in Iran</p><p>07:34 Gold &amp; Bitcoin Bullish After Iran</p><p>08:17 Bear Market in Bitcoin is Over</p><p>09:40 A Profound &amp; Historic Outcome</p><p>10:20 US Dollar Dominance is Cracking</p><p>11:10 Freezing Russian Assets Was a Catastrophic Mistake</p><p>14:28 Bitcoin Bear Market is Over (Revisited)</p><p>15:38 All Roads Lead to Yield Curve Control</p><p>17:45 Multipolar World &amp; Weaker Dollar</p><p>19:29 Massive Money Printing is Coming</p><p>24:26 Gold &amp; Bitcoin Will Rip Higher</p><p>26:32 SpaceX Ponzi as Financial Suppression</p><p>32:07 The Lottery Effect &amp; Tax Receipts</p><p>37:20 K-Shaped Economy is Getting Worse</p><p>46:27 Cantillon Effect Explained</p><p>50:14 Oil is Going Way Lower</p><p>54:39 What to Watch Next (Fed, Japan, Ukraine)</p><p><br></p><p>🔗 Links &amp; Resources:</p><p>→ Doomberg Substack: https://doomberg.substack.com</p><p>→ https://x.com/DoombergT</p><p>→ James Lavish Newsletter (The Informationist): https://jameslavish.substack.com</p><p>→ https://x.com/jameslavish</p><p><br></p><p>📌 Previous Episodes: </p><p>Tom Luongo &amp; Nolan Bauerle → https://youtu.be/XGPaWFavFqk</p><p><br></p><p>⚡ POWERED by Abundant Mines: Fully managed Bitcoin mining.
