The big picture - book suggestions

Hi!

I have always been fascinated by those investors and investment professionals who are able to understand the big picture and how everything is connected. If a war breaks out in Ukraine or a tsunami hits Japan, which sectors and companies will be affected, both positively and negatively. 

I know this is not something easily taught but i hope there are some great books out there, or lectures for that matter, that are relevant to my curiosity. Wasn't sure where to post this but figured the HF forum was the best one for this.

Best,
Bodacious
