I've read all their books, (more than once) and have an idea concerning their ideas about staying humble. But you definitely don't know, and will never know until you take the time to read their books. Which you will never do, since you've stated several times you never read. So for you to assume you know what they value is juvenile. You are the only man I know, (not personally) that's allergic to education.
All this talk about NVDA, and where the hell did this chart come from? Are these guys making AI clothing??? Stitching chips into shirt pockets??? This is absolutely shocking!!!
I bet they won't be able to repeat this same feat again. I know, the saying "you only need to get rich once" comes to mind, but there is no way the next 20 years are like the last 20 years. The other saying "don't confuse brains with a bull market" is quite applicable here.
permabulls they are because the asset pricing is not a normal distribution. The worst one can lose is back to zero, so the market pushes up, among other factors, qe for one.
That might be true, but at the same time, how much is that actually attributed to their trading skill and not just dumb luck? With Uncle Sam providing the backstop these days, ya don't need to be a whiz to make money. But how did they do in 2022, let alone in 2008?
In trading, everyone gets taught a lesson, right? The bulls, the bears, and I also think soon, the buy and hold crowd. The past 40 years was all because of the steady drop in interest rates. It inflated assets prices, and allowed inflation to be hidden. (I feel so smart for learning about how the US has exported inflation all these years, so that is why we didn't see it) We are now in a new era. Rates are higher, and if they stay like this, half of the economy cannot cope. If they drop them in a bid to save the economy, I think selling treasuries and funding governments becomes very difficult, and the currency suffers. The era of money printing to run the game is over. I think the path forward is the USD goes higher and takes down everyone else, and then USD collapses. Enter Bitcoin, and maybe gold, and we will start with a new system. But this means real estate wealth, equity wealth, bond wealth... its all gone. The buy and hold crowd is finished. The name of the game going forward is learning to adapt to the new world order, and even Dalio said exactly this I think.
