Weimar America: The Inflation Spiral Has Begun

Forward Guidance

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. **Fiscal Dominance is Here:** Government spending, not just Fed policy, is the primary driver of the current inflationary pressures and will likely lead to an 8% GDP deficit.
  2. **Prepare for Intervention:** Expect capital controls (like remittance taxes) and yield curve control as governments grapple with the consequences of their spending.
  3. **Store-of-Value is King:** In an environment where traditional savings (e.g., 4% on bonds) can't match 15% inflation in essential costs, assets like tech stocks and Bitcoin become non-negotiable for wealth preservation.
