The $600 Trillion Time Bomb: Derivatives Market Explained

The $600 Trillion Time Bomb: Derivatives Market Explained

There is a market worth 10x the global GDP that nobody talks about. It's called the Derivatives Market, and Warren Buffett calls it a "financial weapon of mass destruction." Is this the ticking time bomb for the next global financial crisis? In this video, we dive deep into the $600 trillion world of derivatives. From the futures contracts used by farmers to the complex credit default swaps that led to the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008, we explain how this invisible system works. We analyze the risks hidden in the books of major banks, such as JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs, and examine the "casino" nature of modern finance exposed by the Archegos Capital collapse. This is the story of how risk is manufactured, why the economy is more fragile than you think, and what happens when the "insurance" on the global debt market catches fire. 🔔 Subscribe for more financial deep dives 👍 Like the video if you want more documentaries on hidden economics!
