It's a typical Polish name and it's a difficult one and there is no English equivalent. My
mother speaks like nine languages. So and she was a linguist and she said she found Polish to be the hardest. Huh. And she even like speaks like some like she's learned like some Russian and some Malay and all this. Russian's
supposed to be the hardest. And she said from a

One thing we have learned in all our episodes looking at the Iranian stock market, and there have been a couple. Yes. But one thing we've learned is that Iran is actually the 37th biggest economy in the world by nominal GDP. Can you guess like another economy that is roughly that size?
Oh, that's a really so what is roughly similar to the Iranian? I don't know. Go on.
Okay. Well, one of them is Denmark. So you know, that's pretty big. But then when you start looking at things like geographical size, uh Iran is I think the seventeenth biggest country in the world by geographical size. It has a lot of people as well. So, you know, similar to Turkey in terms of population. I know you know
I know the population now.
Oh do you? Well
Yeah, because Ted Cruz got stumped on it when he went on Tucker Carlson show. So we all know that Iran has a population of around ninety million. No one should have
listened to oddlaws.
No one yeah, he should have no one is ever gonna make that mistake again in public.
That should have been my first question.
Can I say something? When there's a geopolitical events happening in the world on a weekend when nothing is trading. So one that you can look at what crypto is doing. Yeah. But every once in a while when I'm in true market sicko mood, like I'll actually check like, Oh, what is the Saudi market doing on a Saturday? Or what is the Tel Aviv market doing on a Sunday? There are
not sicko mode, that's just being international.
Well You're supposed to have the weekends to not be looking up, but most of the time they're not every point is every once in a while I'm like, Oh, I'm gonna check in and see how Tel Aviv is trading on a Sunday or something like that. That's how you know the current state. That's how you know something is happening.
Yeah. But the one market that you can't really look up
That's right.
Is Iran's stock market and the Tehran stock exchange specifically, which again, as we know from previous episodes, has more than 600 companies and is worth, I think it was almost a hundred billion dollars. I don't know if it's still that much, but I'm always really
around 150 billion dollars. 150. Oh wow.
Okay, we're speaking with Matya Voital. He is CEO and CIO of Antilon Capital, which is an Amsterdam-based fund manager, which specializes in Iranian stocks.
