Building puzzles.
Geoff Castle hosts Callum Thomas, founder and head of research of Topdown Charts for their annual podcast.
Geoff and Callum reflect on 2023 and review which of their December 2022 calls were right, and which were early. They look ahead to 2024 and really dive into a wide range of topics, both fixed income as well as small-cap equities, commodities and UAPs (formerly UFOs). Is the US government hiding something?
