If you can’t project wether economic conditions or policies will produce one of either 2 extremes then you must accept you know nothing at all and that economics is an utterly illegitimate field of study.
Hey David, I would love for you to ask someone about the prospect of Taiwan being attacked not to be secured for mainland China, but as a blow to the US. I.e. as a "well maybe we can't win, but we can make you lose" scenario. As mentioned, NVIDIA stock, which is propping up the entire stock market, would take a massive hit, and cause the entire market to panic. Plud, we have to remember that as Putin said, "whoever masters AGI first will rule the world" so there is an AI arms race ongoing as we speak. It would make sense for China to trip up the US side of that equation if they feel they are losing. The reduction in high end chip production would hurt China as a lot of the electronics they assemble rely on those chips, but I think China would survive and may consider it a worthy sacrifice to strike a blow to US chip dominance. Something to consider. This interview was great, very happy to hear more from these gentlemen. Great work as always.
Gold’s price I think still has a margin to increase but not as much as it did since the early 2000’s (around $250 and now around $2,400 an ounce). That’s almost 10X. Gold is mostly a commodity, hence, it has a demand destruction. It is used as a good conductor of heat, as jewelries, as component of industrial machineries or gadgets like cell phones, etc. Imagine if gold’s price increase by 10X again, then all products that use gold will increase by 10X also. Who’s gonna by a product say for example a cell phone that previously costs around $1,000 but costs $10,000 now? Stocks on the other hand has more exponential growth especially those growth stocks. If you’re scared of putting a lot of money on growth stocks, then you can hedge by also balancing your portfolio through investing in large caps stocks. Stocks have always proven as the best performer of all assets, not real estate, not bonds, not cash and especially not gold. The S and P 500 index in 1928 was only $24 and now it’s around $5,051 (210X) whereas gold’s price in that same year of 1928 was $20 per ounce and now is only around $2,386 (119X). I still have faith in America as the safest haven on earth when it comes to financial investment because it still has the most stable and transparent government in all of the world. Heck, other countries may manufacture stuffs right and left but a lot of their companies and investors all over the world will still park their “scared” and “dumb” money in America especially when there’s global turmoil like what we have now. Those who want to invest in Russia, China, Iran, North Korea and their cohorts need to have an MRI of the brain because you may earn a lot in the beginning as a bait but will just lose almost all of it later because of their authoritarian governments where people’s right to redress the grievances of their citizens are muffled and met by violence and worse, by murder!
i just sold a house and i want to invest around $200K now, is it a good time to buy stocks? I just want my money to keep outgrowing the inflation rate!
i'd rather buy ETF's than invest in individual stocks. if you don't have experience or don't have time to monitor your portfolio, you should consult with a portfolio expert to guide you.
Accurate asset allocation is crucial, I used hedging strategies to allocate part of my portfOlio to defensive assets for market downturns. Expert guidance is vital for achieving this. This approach has helped me stay finan-cially secure for over five years, yielding nearly $1 million in returns on invest-ments.
We Are in Unchartered Financial Waters! every day we encounter challenges that have become the new standard. Although we previously perceived it as a crisis, we now acknowledge it as the new normal and must adapt accordingly. Given the current economic difficulties that the country is experiencing in 2024, how can we enhance our earnings during this period of adjustment? I cannot let my $680,000 savings vanish after putting in so much effort to accumulate them.
Keeping some gold is usually a wise decision. You would be better off keeping away from equities for a bit or, even better, seeking advice from an expert given the current market conditions and everything that is at risk with the current economy.
You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a CFA, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst
My CFA Monica Shawn Marti , a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
Thank you for saving me hours of back and forth investigation into the markets. I simply copied and pasted her full name into my browser, and her website came up first in search results. She looks flawless.
I'm DCAing in Blcktken300 as well. ETH heavier DCA and ALGO. I'm taking your advice and starting Google tomorrow with a 50 dollar purchase and continuing Microsoft and Apple. VTI and VOO on another app and longterm portfolio. Here we go family!
The first step to attaining wealth is figuring out your goaIs and risk toIerance - either on your own or with the heIp of a financiaI pIanner, and foIIowing through with an inteIIigent pIan, you wiII gain financiaI growth over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.
I am fortunate I made productive decisions that changed my finances (gathered over 1M in 2years) through my financiaI planner. Got my 2nd house in Feb, and hoping to retire soon. Give this a try and attain good-returns.
David thank you for relentlessly bringing us articulable, and digestible up to date current market/financial information. Mainstream media would never!
Im betting Blcktken300 will perform well, it havent had a cycle yet and they have a strong community on both, and Blcktken300 update will make rollup fees even lower. Just my 2 cents. Great video goodvibes
The problem is not whether Xi JInPing wants to attack Taiwan. The problem is US wants a war with China (Why do you think Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan?) With China's problem with Philippines, the war might come after all.
The FED can’t cut. The FED can’t do nuttin’… THE FED doesn’t set rates. The bond market does. If the FED isn’t going to buy a heap of US bonds and put their money where their mouth is, then jawboning about rates is immaterial. Rates will rise. Period. The bond market is already demonstrating this reality. So, your jawboning about their jawboning is just a lot of wind.
@@mtrest4 Dude! You ain’t payin’ attention. Why am I educating you? The FED was actively buying bonds with printed money. Have you been living under a rock?
huge debts ($34T) and deficits ($1T/100days), and rising debt servicing paying $1T/yr. interest at 5%. real US inflation 10%. rates and yields up to 6% then the US Debt Clock explodes into inflation and hyperinflation. rates and yields down then no one will purchase 4% treasuries billions and trillions to be sold in 2024. The US rates are stuck at 5% going forward. This is it.
The plan was to gaslight about cuts until the election in November, Powell knows he has to raise not cut to halt inflation. Israel just screwed their plans by antagonizing Iran.
Cutting in June 2024, much like the famed transitory inflation of 2021 is fed speak for "we will wait until there is a large problem and then overreact."
What I don’t understand is, on one hand we are told the stock market will crash and yet on the other we are told ways of investing in the stock market. Oxymoron or paradox? I'm considering investing over $300k, but I'm uncertain about risk mitigation strategies.
@@jazzysnoopy1403 Real estate in China would be what to watch 👀 Enormous construction has taken place since 2008 especially and if a lot of it is loss making, huge crash lies ahead. Unfortunately I do not know what's happening there either.

30:00 Russell Napier argues (in his recent Library of Mistakes talk) that we should consider where domestic capital flows are headed before deciding where to invest in the world. For China, domestic capital is flowing out of the country. Russell says that when foreign capital is flowing in, but domestic capital is flowing out, it's the foreign investors who are wrong! The Yuan is not depreciating because of a worsening trade deficit, it's happening because of a worsening capital account, so be vary careful about investing in China.
The comment at 13:10 is the gold nugget of this entire convo. The Fed is simply pissing into the wind with higher rates without the accompanying fiscal restraint that they are not going to get. So they’re getting all the downside(bond market, interest expense, …)of higher rates with little improvement in inflation. They’ve decided that instead of standing in the middle of the ring and fighting inflation with one hand tied behind their back that they’ll retreat and not take the beating. Fiscal has to join the fight for any hope of victory
I agree. The interest rate isn't highly relevant to the overall money supply (m3) at this point. The only thing the interest rate can do is move money between sectors.
The way to cut our current style of inflation, is to stop printing money out of thin air to fund government. Killing the economy by raising interest rates wont help.
David, do a deep dive on the "market metrics" that folks are throwing around/referencing. How much of the rising prices "demand" referenced as evidence of better business conditions are really just a figment of Inflation? Check food inflation and the real on the street price rise is like 30% over the last year or two, same effect happens on commodities as the buying power of fiat currencies goes down. Misreading economic data surging with inflation effects is dangerous: individuals and businesses will make poor investment decisions. The data seems to indicate a glut of buyers are chasing products so the business buys additional equipment and authorizes worker overtime which all pile up and sit on shelves.
Captivating because it was highly informative ( at least at my level of knowledge). Thank you very much for this opportunity for more knowledge and understanding.
If inflation picks up and interest rates are raised will companies have massive layoffs? Will layoffs cause massive unrest? Or even if interest rates are rates will inflation continue to rise and doubling food prices cause massive unrest?
The Federal Reserve is deliberately inflating with deficit spending and refusal to raise interest rates further (mind you, 5.25% rate is not high), meanwhile verbally fear-mongering the markets about fighting inflation. Look at their actions, not their words. With their actions, the Fed is continuing to run deficit spending, keeping interests rate at a very low 5.25%, refusing to increase interests rates; but with their words they pander about how serious they are about fighting inflation. The fact of the matter is, the Fed knows that the U.S. economy is weak, job numbers are also very weak. And in order to stimulate a failing economy, the Fed is desperately seeking for a reason to lower interest rates. The Fed will fudge numbers to make it seem like inflation has been crushed, in order to lower interest rates; when in fact the actual inflation rates will continue to spike up at the grocery stores, at the fuel pump, as the cost of living will be inflated higher and higher. The truth of the matter, is that the world is actively and aggressively dumping the U.S. paper dollar. The U.S. economy has now been transformed into Venezuela.
Thank you Louis and David H for this great discussion: so if Jamie Dimon thinks inflation will get worse in coming years, and when you look how cheap oil is (using present-day-values of past prices), to keep our net worth from devaluing we pretty much have to invest in oil equities.
Dude, 'reaccelerating'? IDK about that. Opec has cut oil supply, Russia's supply has been cut and throttled, just to maintain price, that doesn't say accelerated demand to me. Not to mention peaking credit card debt and delinquencies, that also doesn't say acceleration to me... Maybe LONGER term but right now it seems to me we're in recession.
"political risk" in a communist country is a HUGE risk. I like listening to Louis because he does have a different perspective on china, but that doesn't change the fact that china views the US as an enemy so how a US citizen could invest there is beyond me.
This 6% budget deficit in monetary terms is larger than personal and corporate savings as at 2024 !! Since savings is really low, investment will also be insignificant and that in turn means that America's stock of capital equipment will not grow significantly enough for productivity growth and more productive employment !!
Why am I listening to this? Even as a dummy I now realize that nobody knows what they are talking about and they do not have any idea what the Fed is going to do. Sound and fury signifying nothing. I'm just glad I didn't listen to the ones who kept saying to load the boat with TLT at $100 because the Fed had to cut soon. Wrong. As usual, might as well hire a monkey to throw darts. That might be a good idea for a youtube financial channel though. Every day I come on with my monkey and he predicts the future. And he would work for peanuts.
They are missing the point about Engineer populations. You can't just throw bodies at engineering problems. 1 Excellent Engineer > 10 Mediocre Engineers.
A country can have many engineers, but if it's economy is a dying, centrally controlled communist system, with little innovation and with debt that is equal or higher than ours... those engineers aren't going to help.
@@skydragon23101979 Coming from an Engineer: The need for huge numbers of Engineers is highly over exaggerated. With proper capitalization a relatively small number of Engineers can execute a huge project. The most important factor is having a project that makes sense economically.
(CAPE) ratio," also known as the Shiller P/E ratio. The CAPE ratio is a valuation measure that uses inflation-adjusted earnings over a 10-year period to calculate the price-to-earnings ratio for the stock market. It was developed by the economist Robert Shiller. The key points about the cyclically adjusted KPE (CAPE) ratio are: It is used to assess whether the stock market is overvalued or undervalued compared to its historical average. It looks at the price-to-earnings ratio, but uses a 10-year average of inflation-adjusted earnings to smooth out short-term fluctuations in earnings. The "cyclically adjusted" part refers to the fact that it accounts for the business cycle, rather than just using the current year's earnings. A high CAPE ratio (above its historical average) suggests the market may be overvalued, while a low CAPE ratio suggests potential undervaluation. Investors and analysts use the CAPE ratio as one input when evaluating the overall valuation of the stock market.
With $AKDMTTP this year is way different and way more powerful as well. These guys did everything right and they can only improve more and more, love it
