Markets are on edge again as geopolitical drama heats up. President Trump has threatened new tariffs — starting at 10% on goods from eight European countries on February 1, rising to 25% by June — all tied to his push to acquire Greenland. Because of this stocks and cryptos are likely to drop this morning. More uncertainty for crypto investors and investors in general. At the same time, gold and silver have hit new highs as investors rush into safe-haven assets, and global indices are bracing for more volatility. And it’s not just Europe. Between the U.S. raid on Venezuela, tensions with Iran, the Russia-Ukraine war, and ongoing U.S.–China friction, geopolitics is driving a lot of short-term market movement in 2026. Just Tariffs could knock around 0.5% off U.S. GDP before any retaliation even begins — reshaping trade routes and possibly pushing inflation higher. Manufacturing, tech, and commodities are most exposed, which explains the sharp market reactions we’ve seen and are likely to continue to see… But here’s the big point: geopolitical drama has always been part of investing. Headlines come and go. Markets have been through trade wars, military conflicts, and political standoffs many times — and long-term investors who stay focused usually come out ahead. The people who win don’t react to every headline. They stick to the basics: diversify well, own high-quality companies with strong competitive advantages, and let compounding do the heavy lifting. And with global growth still expected to sit around 2–3% in 2026 — alongside AI-driven productivity and ongoing fiscal support — the long-term outlook remains strong.

This is what £100 per month can do if you invest Long term. This is my little attempt to get my two teenage daughters to invest long term - wish me luck 🍀 because at the minute they ignore everything I say about money or investing. This video will help members of this community - especially beginners who are just starting to invest. If you do watch. And if you do have any questions. Can you ask in the comments on YouTube… As I keep saying - I’m trying to grow my YouTube channel - and one of the main reasons is to get more investors in here - as long as they are a good fit. I’ll leave the link for my channel below in the comments 👇

When No One Is Watching The funny thing about markets — especially crypto — is this: When it’s boring, that’s when the money is made.When it’s quiet, opportunities multiply.When nobody cares… that’s when you should care the most. And at this moment in time… No one cares about crypto. Literally no one. Your mates at work? Not interested. Family? Think it’s dead again and are probably worried your obsessed with crypto. Retail? Gone. Most people are focused on TikTok reels, AI stocks, and complaining about the cost of living. But this is exactly how every cycle starts. It feels lonely. It feels pointless. It feels slow. But behind the scenes — the big players are positioning. They’re accumulating in silence. They’re building the rails for the next 5 years while the average person waits for confirmation. This newsletter is your reminder: If you wait until it feels safe… you’re already late. This skool is all about long term investing. As you may or may not know my favourite way to invest is with low cost index funds. But because of how high inflation is, I’m a strong believer in going high risk with crypto to hedge against inflation. If you are risk averse, stick with low cost index funds. This newsletter will be mainly focused on crypto for the next few months. At least until me and some of the active members in here are able to take profits. MARKET UPDATE 2025 felt like a failure for most investors. Prices stagnated. Altcoins bled. Bitcoin ran early and then went sideways. Liquidity dried up. Retail disappeared. But here’s what I believe to be the truth: Nothing was wrong with crypto.Liquidity simply didn’t arrive yet. Crypto is the furthest out on the risk curve, so when liquidity tightens… crypto gets slapped the hardest. This wasn’t a fundamental problem. It was a macro liquidity problem. And liquidity droughts always end the same way: With a flood. Governments must inject $7–8 trillion over the next 12 months just to service global debt interest. Not to stimulate growth. Not to pump markets. Just to avoid collapse.

Sorry but F*** the HMRC! My latest video is a bit of a warning ⚠️ but does finish on a positive - IF you’re a long term investor. Tax is a bit of a rubbish subject as we all know. But I do think we should get talking about it in here.. Because the more info we get - the better our understanding - the less tax we pay. My belief as I said time and time again last year in our crypto skool is this … Financial education leads to financial literacy and financial literacy leads to financial freedom. I might change it to… Financial literacy + long term investing = financial freedom… Either way, hopefully you get what I’m trying to say 😂😂😂 If you want to know what the HMRC are up to in 2026 see my latest video @completeinvesting

Getting Rich With Crypto Is Really Simple I’m not a crypto bro. I’m not an 18-year-old TikTok trader talking about 100X gains. I’m also not here to hype coins, promise shortcuts, or pretend the markets are easy. But after 24 years of investing I am convinced of one thing: Crypto gives everyday investors one of the biggest wealth opportunities we’ve seen in decades. Not because it’s a lottery ticket. Not because you’ll get rich overnight. And definitely not because you need to gamble on the next meme coin. It’s simple because the strategy is simple: • Buy quality assets (the ones solving real problems and with real adoption). • Invest consistently, just like you would in stocks or index funds. • Hold through the noise, because the timelines for real innovation are measured in years, not days. • Avoid chasing hype, influencers, or overnight success stories. • Focus on asymmetric upside, where the potential reward massively outweighs the risk. That’s it. Not flashy. Not sexy. Not social-media friendly. But it’s how real wealth is built — slowly, steadily, and with conviction. Crypto isn’t perfect. It’s volatile. It’s early. It’s still misunderstood. But that’s exactly why the opportunity exists. Most investors won’t take the time to understand what’s happening. Those who do can position themselves years ahead of the crowd. This isn’t advice — just my perspective as someone who’s seen multiple cycles across markets. And the best part? You don’t need to be a genius, a full-time trader, or a tech expert. You just need a plan — and the patience to stick with it. This is the topic of my next video on YouTube @completeinvesting - this will be published tonight @1715. Get it watched and let me know if you agree with my thoughts for crypto in 2026 👍📈
