Market Mayhem and Bear Market
- Three market anomalies existed: undervalued Japanese yen, overvalued big tech, and undervalued Chinese renminbi.
- These unstable equilibriums created a market shift, leading to a bear market focused on US tech and AI.
Bond Market Pitfalls
- Avoid Western government bonds; they are slated for destruction as welfare states collapse financially.
- Policymakers will deflate bond bubbles slowly, leading to accumulating losses for bond investors.
Fixed Income Strategy
- Avoid long-duration fixed income and favor credit and inflation protection.
- Emerging market bonds, like Brazilian or Chinese bonds, offer better returns and inflation protection.
