U.S. Economy: Trade Wars, Lack Of Competitiveness

Trade wars have never worked for anybody, they've always led to problems for everybody so it doesn't matter if he's right if he's gonna ruin us all. Yes, maybe we have problems but the problems are not because the Asians are evil. We have a horrible education system, we have a horrible litigation system. We spend more on medicine than anybody in the world by several factors but our life expectancy is not even the top 25. We have more basic problems than a bunch of evil Asians.

Markets: Washington Is The Big Risk Right Now

Washington DC's the greatest risk. The central bank  (the Federal Reserve) has no clue what it's doing and the others are following it. The government has no clue what it's doing... Trade wars. Do you think trade wars are good for anybody? History shows they're not so. Washington is the big risk right now.

My First Big Mistake In The Markets

My first big mistake I made in the markets came from a triumph. I decided the stock market was going to collapse and so I bought puts with all my money. I tripled my money in five months and I thought this was easy, I thought "yeah, I'm really gonna be rich someday." 

So, I sold my puts on the day the market hit bottom, then the market rallied as I thought it would, I sold short and two months later I was wiped out. But the worst part is that every one of the companies I sold short went bankrupt within two years. but I lost everything first because I didn't know the market did strange things.

Crypto Currencies: They Are All Probably Going To Disappear

the Blockchain is going to change everything. A lot of people will lose their jobs but electricity also caused a lot of people to lose their jobs and also created a lot of jobs. So, I'm not worried about technological progress at all.

I suspect any crypto currencies will survive. They are all probably going to disappear before this is over. But Blockchain has a spectacular future. I wish I can find a good way to invest in Blockchain.

We're Getting Closer To A Bear Market

It's been ten years since we had the last bear market and historically we have them more often than that we don't have to have them more often than that but we always have nearly always have so I would suspect we're getting closer.

Currencies: Turmoil Ahead

Everything may go down against the US Dollar when the turmoil comes and the US dollar goes up a lot. Everything will go down against it but I suspect that the renminbi will go down less than anything else. When those days come, when currency turmoil comes again you're gonna see a lot of strange gyrations.

Gold: Waiting For An Opportunity To Buy

I own gold. I haven't bought any serious gold in a long time because I expect another opportunity to buy gold under $1,000 USD per ounce. If that happens, I hope I'm smart enough to buy a lot of gold because before this is over gold is going to skyrocket. Throughout history when people lose confidence in economies, governments or currencies they have always bought gold and silver.

A Bear Market Will Clean The System

We've had plenty of bear markets throughout history. The world never came to an end. A lot of people go bankrupt, a lot of people suffer. But in the end it cleans the system. Like forest fires. They clean out the forest, in the end the forest can grow faster, better from a sounder base.
