@@ingolfura.4327 His illustrations on the whiteboard are a massive help to my understanding. Here we have two guys talking exchanging valuable information, but if I see what is being discussed, wow, my understanding goes through the roof.
Cryptos are a means of exchange. Gold is a store of value AND a means of exchange. Why would I hold cryptos to get half the benefit when I can hold gold or physical gold-backed cryptos to get both benefits?
But gold can't go up 9 million percent. Just because things have been the same don't mean better things not gone come in the future. Just do some research on RippleNet and XRP.
Gold is inflationary, you fight with one inflationary element another. Bitcoin is DEflationary... it means you have asymetric returns on a extremly negligable risk. Even if it goes to zero your are risk free on a 7% yield portfolio that has 3% BTC :-)
Bitcoin is a store of value (proven fact by current valuation in fiat terms), is a payment method and currency which uses its own payment method within its own secure network that's non-centralized. Gold, on the other hand, is a store of value but needs centralized and highly regulated points of exchange who cannot handle large or micro transactions due to limitations of the metal being a physical entity. You also have to trust the middlemen. And it can be confiscated, so there's that.
@48.2 Veganvape kind of useless if it's buried, isn't it? What if you lose access to land or need to move to another country? It's just so circa 200 AD.

Also the transaction is indisputable.
The last minute of that interview was valuable. The ultimate hedge against currency debasement, to have exposure to a fixed issuance such as a cryptocurrency.

Say I own VTI, should I get out and own something else?

Is this a pitch to diversify equity with Treasuries; is it a pitch to hold only Treasuries; or what? What is the point? 3 Yields are low, too low to live off of, lower than inflation. Yeah? No kidding! So what? TIPS? 4 Whatever The ETF Divide is, it seems to present active managers with an opportunity. So, ETFs aren’t so bad after all? Oh! Crypto! Only took an hour to get there.
8:48 If you invested in the S&P 500 at the beginning of 2000, assuming you reinvested all dividends, return on investment would be 235.04%, or *6.23% per year.* Price increase by itself accounted for 3.23% per year. (not sure if dividend tax included)

so i'm a student an i had an intensive programme on ESG theme investing. I had heard asset managers bragging about the returns and potential of ESG investments. One of my assignments was to investigate a couple ETFs. I presumed that I would find a lot of clean energy companies, social enterprises, and you clean special companies leiding in this ESG themes. To my shocking I found that a lot of the ETFs had Big teg as 5-7 of their top10 holdings, driving the vast majority of the the returns. Putting companies together under a single theme and a set of financial rules is not diversification and does not particularly make sense.
Bitcoin is not non-debasable...LOL It can vanish with a few keystrokes. You keep your bitcoin- for those who know history, its Gold that you Hold and Silver too, with the PGMs thrown in.
Root word is debase, meaning: Reduce in quality or value. Fiat currency is always being reduced in value by simply adding more currency to the existing supply. If there is $100 total in the global supply, and another $100 is printed and added, it instantly reduces the value of each dollar - basically. Gold and Silver are less-debasable as well, in that new mining could potentially expand the supply. Land and fresh water are considered non-debasable, as there is a finite supply. Crypto Currency such as BitCoin are "effectively" non-debasable in that the number of BTC is limited by its inherent mathematic algorithm at 21 million. Many consider the BTC non-debasable argument moot as the value of BTC fluctuates, much like Fiat currency.
@@shotelco Expansion of money supply is not by itself inflationary- it is expansion of money supply that expands faster than the supply of goods and services within the economy. And for bitcoin, you don't really control it. Their is a computer infrastructure required to sustain it. You cannot physically isolate and keep it within your own possession . It can be seized by government or hackers at any time. True, government can seize gold, but there is no infrastructure required to maintain it's value. There is no such thing as a "Bitcoin" that has any inherent value- it's just vapors. Unlike precious metals, it has no utility or actual use. I can just see it now...John sweeps Sally off her feet with a virtual ring made from a Bitcoin...."Aw, John! It's beautiful!" . I don't think so.
The guy is an active manager with some gears to grind, hilarious. He makes some valid points with legitimate concerns over the effects of indexations and how appropriately weighted the indexes are, but is genuinely meaningless in the long run. He clearly can't accept the fact that active fund managers rarely ever beat the benchmarks, even Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger acknowledge this fact. This isn't just true post 1999, but since 1926 there is evidence over and over again that the market as whole will beat almost any fund.
Altum Novo Altum Novo many fund managers have made predictions about the public markets with lots of different evidence, often using data that justifies their theories, that ultimately end up being wrong or mistimed. These fund managers include some of the greatest Investors in the world like Ray Dalio. Do some critical thinking, what did they even state as a fundamental factors that would cause the ETF “bubble” to pop? Cash inflow and the inflation that these ETFs seem to generate. They stipulate that the action of moving money to passive indexes have inflated the underlying assets to the point of a potential correction in their pricing, and that it will most likely come when cash inflow ends (on the assumption the world economy stops growing and stops putting money into stock markets). However, you could almost never know what kind of cosmic event would cause the market to correct its pricing for the indexed assets. You would be lucky if you could find the key factors that would determine the correction, like default rates in Mortgage backed securities and CDOs. He also references a study that show only 4% of stocks have produced the vast majority of all the wealth created, which shows that the stock market inherently follows the Pareto principle ( in an even more extreme form), like all capitalism does. People price an asset on the basis of the psychology of the prevailing market, and currently the market favours index’s as the primary form of wealth created. As long as the economy grows and the system does not have too much leverage, the federal bank will keep printing dollars and stock market will grow, and fortunately for passive investors for now, it will particularly inflate indexes. Until we change our political-economic system we will likely continue to live in this “bubble”, and all the suckers who didn’t take their profits from the market can be happy with their bitcoin.
Are assets a bubble or is what is used to purchase them the problem? Some say 1/2 million dollar house is expensive. 40 years ago it was thousands. Gold was also a few dollars an ounce now it is 1600. I don't think the problem is the asset I think it's the currency
A somewhat more understandable (and perhaps honest) explanation of the passive vs active investment strategy can be found in the Frontline documentary “The Retirement Gamble.” One of the reasons people are leaving active management is that the expenses overwhelm the returns, especially over a long time horizon.
He has the Spice. The spice is undeniably in the blueness of his eyes. He has the ability to fold time. It is pure Harkonnen folly to ignore the prophecies of Mark Green.
This guy doesn’t know what he is talking about...his concepts are pre Japan. M2 going up doesn’t mean anything inflation wise....but I like the indexing issues part which explains the ridiculous momentum moves
Like many experts, your guest repeatedly (either consciously or unconsciously) confuses the actions of the private Federal Reserve with the actions of the U.S. Government
There are sites that point to true inflation numbers. The government has changed how they calculate inflation to make it look low among other reasons to not have to pay more in benefits and raises based on it. Some of their arguments are sound, but how many TVs do we buy a month, and I do not believe it takes into account the increased taxes we pay also on many items such as gas being taxed multiple times.
@@westcoaststacker569 and if you borrow money, you can make the economy look great forever, until they stop loaning, or for my friends sake, stop buying US bonds.
John Valerian I’ve wondered about those too. It seems like if they ever go the other direction someone will go bankrupt. In theory you have a limited downside and an unlimited upside with an inverse etf which just doesn’t seem viable to me.
Wasn't expecting crypto to come up in the last minute. That's probably one of the few areas where the younger generations will take a more active investment approach.
He says returns from 1999 are 4.5 percent even if which is true, that is year just before crash so if you calculate from 1995 it is almost 7.2 percent. I thought this guy has some points but he is just bullshitting to sell hedge funds. And even though he says more than 50 percent of the investment is passive, in reality 15 percent is in only index funds while other is in mutual funds which are actively managed funds by fund managers.
I am taking bets on the price of everyday items in today's dollars at the peak of the slump.... Let's says an egg or a loaf of bread.... Open up you monopoly board game box and use the cash from there next time you go to buy groceries....
@@KnaveChild Your inflation isn't my inflation. House prices, assets not included. Taxes, the price of the state, not included. But I presume you mean inflation numbers have been manipulated down. That is just more evidence for no bubble.
Nobody is entitled to yield or living off the interest without work. It's a nice bonus for savers, but there's no law that says they should be rewarded for doing nothing The idea that managers are stuck into moving into higher risk assets is based on the flawed idea the market owes investors high rates of return
Isn’t loaning capital doing work? Kiva is a charity based on zero interest loans to poorer nations. Its clearly adding value and changing people’s lives
@@gracechan3039 people can lend money for a return, but having money doesn't guarantee you the opportunity to make a fixed return. Money managers who say "We need to take more risks because X needed to make Y on their savings" is pushing us over a cliff. X shouldn't depend on Y in the first place. That was a bad assumption.
Here's how they do it Global banker Playbook: Step 1. Demand more money printing by controlling the inflation with algorithms price manipulation. Step 2. Make sure the global credit level is so high everyone is dependent on your system. Step 3. Promote tech companies like Apple and Tesla keeping the population occupied. Step 4. Corrupt and influence the media and politicians making people believe the things you want them to believe. Step 5.

When the market is seeing more outflows than inflows (including share buybacks)... approx 2023 judging by boomer demographics.
Like many experts, your guest repeatedly (either consciously or unconsciously) confuses the actions of the private Federal Reserve with the actions of the U.S. Government
The Fed is effectively our government.
What I do not understand is this. How can we have a decade of trillion dollar deficits and such low inflation? It makes no sense.
robichard how is inflation low?
There are sites that point to true inflation numbers. The government has changed how they calculate inflation to make it look low among other reasons to not have to pay more in benefits and raises based on it.
Some of their arguments are sound, but how many TVs do we buy a month, and I do not believe it takes into account the increased taxes we pay also on many items such as gas being taxed multiple times.
@@westcoaststacker569 and if you borrow money, you can make the economy look great forever, until they stop loaning, or for my friends sake, stop buying US bonds.
Grace Chan : I lived during the late 70s and early 80s. Inflation then was much, much higher.
Does anyone have an opinion on inverse ETF’s?
John Valerian I’ve wondered about those too. It seems like if they ever go the other direction someone will go bankrupt. In theory you have a limited downside and an unlimited upside with an inverse etf which just doesn’t seem viable to me.
Also they should only be used for short term moves even more so when highly leveraged as the way they rebalance everyday gets expensive
If you ask about shorting, dont use it. Leave it to pros.
Speaking of Reverse ETFs ...only!
Bad idea, they don't always movie in the opposite direction. Perfect example look at UUP and UDN.
Watch George Gammon video on Corona virus from a couple days ago. Everyone needs to this video. Thanks
Why cut at 29:58 ?
The market made history last week.
Have you heard of bitcoin?
SUPER INFORMATIVE !!! FROM BOTH OF YOU. THANK YOU
Wasn't expecting crypto to come up in the last minute. That's probably one of the few areas where the younger generations will take a more active investment approach.
Yep, hard to understand the desire for it, feels like any other computer game currency to me. But, if people value it then it has value.
Warren Buffet recently won a million dollar bet against a high faluting fund manager that he couldn't out perform the market....
He says returns from 1999 are 4.5 percent even if which is true, that is year just before crash so if you calculate from 1995 it is almost 7.2 percent. I thought this guy has some points but he is just bullshitting to sell hedge funds. And even though he says more than 50 percent of the investment is passive, in reality 15 percent is in only index funds while other is in mutual funds which are actively managed funds by fund managers.
And don't forget the cronies at Standard and Poors
You boomers aren’t tough when I’m holding y’all up and during home invasions.
Bitcoin.... stop saying "crypto". Its Bitcoin. Nothing remotely compares in decentralization. Nothing else has been even remotely tested. BITCOIN
I'm launching SHITCOIN this year, backed up by the poopchain.
Eth? Cardano has plans to be backed by academic proofs.
I hate when the interviewer sits there saying ummmm hummmm every 10 seconds.it’s not needed
onto
I am taking bets on the price of everyday items in today's dollars at the peak of the slump.... Let's says an egg or a loaf of bread.... Open up you monopoly board game box and use the cash from there next time you go to buy groceries....
How can it be a bubble, when its just tracking inflation?
Inflation numbers are totally fake and manipulated. The Fed and US govt will do anything to hide the coming collapse of the US economy/empire.
@@KnaveChild Your inflation isn't my inflation.
House prices, assets not included.
Taxes, the price of the state, not included.
But I presume you mean inflation numbers have been manipulated down.
That is just more evidence for no bubble.
@@KnaveChild nickle is the proverbial ostrich with head in sand. he wont make it. hes done...or a troll
Interesting to see people go 180 on crypto.
To sum it up, CRYPTO
T wrecks both lol
Nonsense...
The best thing to do is to follow your gut. It rarely ever lies.
Modafinil man..
Nobody is entitled to yield or living off the interest without work. It's a nice bonus for savers, but there's no law that says they should be rewarded for doing nothing
The idea that managers are stuck into moving into higher risk assets is based on the flawed idea the market owes investors high rates of return
Isn’t loaning capital doing work? Kiva is a charity based on zero interest loans to poorer nations. Its clearly adding value and changing people’s lives
@@gracechan3039 people can lend money for a return, but having money doesn't guarantee you the opportunity to make a fixed return. Money managers who say "We need to take more risks because X needed to make Y on their savings" is pushing us over a cliff. X shouldn't depend on Y in the first place. That was a bad assumption.
Bitcoin & gold baby!
XRP, Inter-ledger protocol
angel melko I don’t think there’s a fixed limit to xrp. Not much better than the dollar then.
XRP is that digital asset
Ben Anderson the bankers choice.
@@gracechan3039 It is
XRP the standard
If thats what money makes you look like I,ll stay poor thanks.
Why is the economy doing so well? If the gdp is substantially growing, wont that make it easier to pay debt?
Except the GDP is fueled by debt acquisition. If you rack up more debt than money you take in, that means you can't pay the debt.
Here's how they do it
Global banker Playbook:
Step 1. Demand more money printing by controlling the inflation with algorithms price manipulation.
Step 2. Make sure the global credit level is so high everyone is dependent on your system.
Step 3. Promote tech companies like Apple and Tesla keeping the population occupied.
Step 4. Corrupt and influence the media and politicians making people believe the things you want them to believe.
Step 5. Lean back and enjoy the circus while you hang out and have fun with family and friends !
@@johnbauer5783 come on you keep spamming that comment.
@@johnbauer5783 I understand why you spam that comment. I agree with it.
thomas jackson are you with google?

Snoooooze festival.
