Glonghui, February 10｜Ray Dalio, founder of the world’s largest hedge fund Bridgewater, issued a warning during an exclusive interview with Tucker Carlson in Dubai, UAE, on February 10. He stated that the United States is currently in the “fifth stage” of the long-term cycle of the rise and fall of empires, which is the eve of order collapse and the outbreak of conflict. Dalio pointed out that the world is being shaped by five major forces: the monetary/credit cycle, domestic political order, geopolitical order, natural forces, and technological change. He believes that the United States is currently in the fifth stage of his defined “six-stage grand cycle”—a period of extreme polarization and debt imbalance, on the edge but not yet completely collapsed. He emphasized that the US faces severe debt supply and demand issues, and that central bank money printing to address deficits will lead to currency devaluation. For investors, Dalio explicitly recommends allocating 5%-15% of their portfolios to gold, calling gold “the only asset that is not someone else’s liability.”
