Your stocks, your bonds, your house, your retirement. All of it sits on top of one agreement that almost nobody talks about.
A backroom deal made over fifty years ago that forces nearly every country on Earth to use US dollars whether they want to or not. A deal that keeps inflation lower than it should be, lets the US government borrow trillions at rates no other nation could dream of, and gives America the power to cripple entire economies with a single phone call.
<b>It's called the petrodollar system.</b>
And if you're sitting on a portfolio right now, whether that's a hundred thousand or two million, and you don't understand how this system works, you are building your financial future on a foundation you've never inspected.
That's dangerous. Especially right now.
Let's get into it.

## Follow The Energy. Always.
One of my old mentors on Wall Street, an energy guy named Nick, drilled one line into my head early on.
"Follow the energy. Always."
Because oil isn't just gasoline. Oil is everything.
The plastic in your phone. The fertilizer growing your food. The cargo ship bringing cheap furniture and garments from overseas. The jet fuel flying executives to meetings. Every single day, the world burns through roughly 93 million barrels of oil. If you've never stopped to think about how utterly dependent modern civilization is on this one material, now would be the time.
This is where it gets important for anyone with money in the market.
Let's say you are Saudi Arabia. You've got oil coming out of your ears. More than you could ever use. So what do you need? You need everything else. Technology, cars, weapons, consumer goods. Now let's say you are Japan. Highly advanced economy, makes incredible stuff, but you've got zero oil. None. Zilch. Nothing.
So you've got a natural trade. Japan needs oil. Saudi Arabia needs what Japan makes. Very simple.
