Last weekend we went with 2025 Will Be Messy. We discussed that subject and the implications on Bloomberg Radio/YouTube (30-minute mark) to kick off the year on Thursday. Unfortunately, Academy also had to publish a SITREP – Terrorist Attack in New Orleans.
We did get some volatility as stocks sold off into the New Year. While assets tried to bounce on the first day of trading, that momentum faded. However, at least stocks (and Bitcoin) performed well on Friday (which, technically, is the last official day of the Santa rally, which the Grinch did seem to hack).
What was noticeable about Friday was how well stocks did after the Speaker was picked on the first vote. While there were some delays as “cloakroom” deals were hammered out (which brought back memories of Hamilton’s “The Room Where it Happens”), the whole thing went relatively smoothly.
Markets were prepared for more of a “mess” (than what actually occurred), and rightfully did well as optimism that the positive things for the economy (and markets) will get done.
The expected deluge of corporate bond issuance got off to a fast start with 10 issuers coming to market on Thursday! (Academy was an underwriter on 5 of those deals). […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
