Issue №03 of The Micro Briefing
is the one I'd send to every
financial professional I know.
In 2008, I watched Teck Cominco —
a company that mines the copper
civilization is built on — trade
at the price of a Gatorade.
My advisor shrugged.
"Markets can be irrational."
That's not an explanation.
That's the wrong map talking.
There are two frameworks for how
money actually works. Most people
only know one of them.
Issue 03 maps out both — including
the one central banks actually use,
and why 2008 makes complete sense
once you're looking at the ledger
instead of the price.

This is the intellectual core
of everything we cover in TFR.
If you read one issue — read this one.
