| In 1971, the US ran out of money and defaulted on its debts. Now, they didn’t say it that way. But by moving away from the gold standard, money as we understood it ended. I expected the stock market to plunge, but it went on to rise nearly 25%. That surprised me. But when I looked into it, I discovered the exact same thing happened in 1933 and it had the exact same effect. Here’s why. #principles #raydalio #history #economics |

My Advise For Washington D.C.
2025-03-27
I was in Washington, DC this week speaking with economic leaders of both parties to go over the mechanics of the serious debt problem, to see if they can agree on it, and to see if there can be agreement on what to do about it. While I’m happy to report that they all appreciated going over the mechanics and agreed with the need to cut the deficit to about 3% of GDP, they are now in the middle of their debt limit and budget fights which need to be resolved before they can undertake discussions about how to hit that target. Interestingly, there was some openness to having people make the 3% pledge and even setting up a bipartisan commission to figure out how to achieve it. Stay tuned.
