November 2017. Hugh has closed down his Eclectica fund a few months ago. But i still believe in this guy's logic. I think it's fair to say that bailouts and QE has "moved the goal posts" and this has had a negative impact on Hugh's logic. I wish him all the best and hope we get to hear his views again. Very interesting fella. Respect from Ireland.
Yes I agree. He was right when he says 'we don't have capitalism' and the US Fed propping up the DOW with 2.2 Trillion as a response to COVID19 the proof.
So as an interviewer you get the chance to poke around in a brilliant macro mind but all your small minded brain can come up with is; "YoU MakE MoNEy!!1!!1!!!
The interviewer has Hugh Hendry in front of him, and all he can think of is asking him the most basic questions in the most ideologically biased manner... A waste of Hugh's time and ours.
In an interview I heard him talk about the fact that he never partied and just studied and worked until basically his 40’s, so yeah mid life crisis, now exacerbated by a divorce. Now he dresses like a 15yo surfer who has a trust fund lol. Still, I find him to be one of the most interesting financial minds to listen to, always entertaining.
@berkeley73 you're having a laugh arent you? Slave traders in the Roman Empire made money and were respected people. Pirates robbed and plundered and made money; so on this tenuous logic Hugh Hendry has the right to sit back in his cushy Mayfair office and tell people they have to suffer and slide into poverty.... lovely thinking that
