This 4th of July, I’m raising a glass to all the capital allocators, builders, and believers who still bet on freedom — not just philosophically, but financially.

📍From secondary cities to frontier economies,
📦 From single-family flips to culture-backed coins...

🔥 Independence isn’t just a holiday — it’s a strategy.

While Wall Street clings to 5% Treasuries and overbought tech, the sharpest allocators are packing their bags — metaphorically and literally — for frontier markets.

From Uzbekistan to Côte d’Ivoire, from infrastructure in Laos to agribusiness in Namibia, a new capital thesis is emerging:
✅ Low correlation
✅ High yield
✅ Hard assets in undervalued zones

These markets may lack liquidity, but they offer something Wall Street can’t: risk-adjusted alpha with geopolitical upside.

👉 “Risky”? Yes.
👉 “Rewarded”? Also yes — if you move early.

In a world awash in sameness, borders are the new alpha.
