"The Dao of Capital: Austrian Investing in a Distorted World" by Mark Spitznagel explores a unique investment strategy grounded in Austrian economics and Daoist philosophy. Spitznagel, a hedge fund manager, advocates for a "roundabout" approach to investing, emphasizing the importance of intermediate positional advantages and long-term gains over immediate profits. The book integrates historical, philosophical, and economic insights, drawing parallels between ancient strategies and modern financial markets. It is highly endorsed by notable figures such as Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Ron Paul for its innovative and counterintuitive investment methodology[9][10][11].

"The Dao of Capital" by Mark Spitznagel outlines several key principles of Austrian Investing:

Roundabout Approach: Emphasizes intermediate positional advantages and long-term gains over immediate profits, inspired by Daoist philosophy.
Intertemporal Decision-Making: Focuses on seeing time differently, aiming at indirect means rather than direct ends.
Monetary Distortion Awareness: Identifies and reacts to central bank-induced market distortions.
Tail-Hedging: Uses options to hedge against market downturns, though this is complex and not easily accessible to average investors.
Value Investing with Austrian Insights: Selects undervalued assets less affected by monetary manipulation[5].

It is a measure of expected 30 day volatility in the market but is commonly know as the fear gauge because it tends to spike massively in times of crisis.

Buy and wait for a crisis

Or buy and hope you get lucky
