| All assets are valued in the same way: Their appreciation in price and their yield. Thinking about assets like this allows you to compare them. That’s important, because when you’re looking at the markets, you don’t want to just think about the absolute return. You want to be short on the assets that will have lower returns relative to those that will have higher returns. @nikhil.kamath |

Making Investment Decisions
2026-02-03
How do people make decisions? It works pretty much the same way for all of us.
Your brain takes in information and puts it through a set of criteria that determine action.
Those criteria are the cause-effect relationships that exist all around us. Understanding how they work is critical, because causes lead to effects. And if you understand the causes, you can bet on the effects. @nikhil.kamath

2026-01-21
It’s now happening. The existing fiat monetary order, the domestic political order, and the international geopolitical order are all breaking down, so we are at the brink of wars. It all is happening because of the Big Cycle that is driven by the five big forces I’ve described repeatedly and laid out in detail in my book and Youtube video titled Principles for Dealing with The Changing World Order.

How I’m Training My Digital Twin
2026-01-12
A lot of you have asked, how am I training my digital twin?
The AI version of me is being fed a lot of data — my principles, books, interviews, and more. That way, it can think through things on its own, and respond the way I would likely respond.
I’m also going through a manual process of checking the answers it’s giving to see if it’s what I would actually say. I’m thankful to have great people helping me in that process, as it requires a lot of effort.
I hope you’ll try it out at the link below and let me know what you think.

The Most Important Lesson: Humility
2025-12-01
In 1979, I was so broke that I had to borrow $4,000 from my Dad to help take care of my family.
I had calculated that American banks had lent much more money to foreign countries than they would be able to pay back, and anticipated an imminent debt crisis.
But I couldn’t have been more wrong. I didn’t fully understand the impacts of quantitative easing, and so I lost money for myself and I lost money for my clients.
Looking back, it was the most painful experience I could imagine — but it was also the best thing that ever happened to me, because it taught me humility.

I’m looking forward to doing another AMA and answering whatever questions you have on Thursday, 9/4 from 1-3pm ET.
For over 50 years, I’ve been in the business of studying the cause/effect relationships that drive how reality works and developing principles for dealing with reality well. I then programmed these principles into computers as decision rules to bet on them working. Because the causes come before the effects, this principles-based approach worked amazingly well for me.
Since I’m 76, I’m now at a stage in my life that I want to pass along what’s of value. So far, I’ve passed along my perspectives and principles about how to approach life, work, the changing world order, debt, and markets in my books, videos, and social media. But I think that what is most important is
