Some of our posts on Bridgewater and/or its founder. Most recently:
Ray Dalio: "Are We In A Bubble?"
He says no but he was also pushing investments in China* that are now down 50 - 60%.
He's such an odd duck. I mean most multi-billionaires are odd ducks, it's sort of a prerequisite for the self-made or a condition of employment for inheritors but even in this cohort he sticks out.
I on the other hand think things are bubbly but will get even more bubblicious as long as "the grass shall grow and excess liquidity flow." (apologies to all the U.S. - indigenous treaty writers of a couple centuries ago)
