Empowered investors gather insights on economic and cultural changes impacting markets. In this latest discussion, Jason Hartman reflects on recent meetings in Austin, Texas, discussing investment strategies, economic trends, and technological progress. He highlights lunch with Lance Armstrong, who shared insights into his venture fund, which includes investments in biohacking tech like the Oura Ring. Moving to policy, Hartman comments on recent U.S. administration changes, emphasizing economic reform, deregulation, and tech industry oversight. Investors are encouraged to capitalize on real estate opportunities amid expected price pressures, with resources available through the Empowered Investor Pro program. In part 2 of Jason's interview with David Collum, Jason predicts the coming shifts in real estate and the economy, as data now confirms. Housing inventory increased post-2008, with institutional investors acquiring a larger market share, impacting home prices and rental trends. Inflation, seen as a hedge by investors, drives up asset prices while leveraging debt effectively reduces real costs. However, David predicts the looming end of a 40-year credit cycle that could stall economic growth, mirroring Japan's stagnant market. With rising interest rates, AI, and tech advances, economic gains are likely to favor those with assets or leverage, leaving the average investor vulnerable. #EmpoweredInvesting #RealEstateInvesting #EconomicTrends #MarketInsights #TechInnovation #InvestmentStrategies #LanceArmstrong #Biohacking #Deregulation #USPolicy #RealEstateTrends #FinancialGrowth #EmpoweredInvestorPro #JasonHartman #InvestmentCommunity #AIinInvesting   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:29 Lots to do in Mexico City and lunch with Lance Armstrong 3:00 Jason's new Ai chatbot and looking forward to a great 4 years! 7:11 Censorships and changes rippling through the world 10:49 Technology versus bad fiscal policies 13:34 Buy, Buy, Buy! 15:56 Trump tariffs Join the Empowered Investor Masterclass https://www.empoweredinvestorpro.com/ Watch Vivek's video https://youtu.be/EMXBHAWNtIw   David Collum interview part 2 18:49 Where did the inventory go? 22:07 The FED pivot, immigration and deportation 25:58 Why RE investors love inflation 32:26 Demographics and the end of a 40 year credit cycle 36:16 Technologies and emergent energy 41:51 Government bailing out RE   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
