    Most people only react after a recession hits. By then, prices have moved, fear is peaking, and the best assets are already gone. In this episode, Lloyd James Ross breaks down the three sectors he’s positioning capital in before the downturn arrives, and why these industries continue to generate income even when the economy contracts.

    You’ll learn:

    ◼️ Why healthcare demand barely falls during recessions

    ◼️ How oil and energy remain essential even when growth slows

    ◼️ Why railroads are one of the most durable, impenetrable business models in the world

    ◼️ The common traits these sectors share that make them recession‑resistant

    ◼️ How positioning early protects your wealth when unemployment rises and inflation stays high

    Feb 3 2026

    ◼️ The difference between price movement and true value

    ◼️ Why blockchain technology's value doesn't make Bitcoin a good investment

    ◼️ Why you should invest in assets that produce cash flow, not speculation
