On Middle East War, Market Volatility & Canada's Opportunity - An Interview with Ian Lee

What's really driving market volatility right now? Is it geopolitics, oil prices, or something deeper? In this episode, Allan Small sits down with Ian Lee (Carleton University) to break down the real forces behind today's economic uncertainty. From the Strait of Hormuz to global energy dependency, this conversation explores why markets are reacting the way they are—and what it means for investors. Ian explains why oil and natural gas still dominate the global economy, why the Middle East conflict matters more than headlines suggest, and how Canada could emerge as a major beneficiary in the shifting energy landscape. If you're an investor trying to make sense of volatility, inflation, and global risk, this is a must-watch discussion. Do you have a question about investing?
