桥水创始人警告：美国爆发“心脏病”的风险增加！应配置10-15%黄金

Group 1 - Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, suggests that gold may serve as a hedge against unhealthy market impacts from excessive debt burdens [2] - Dalio warns that increased U.S. spending to service debt will "squeeze other expenditures," accumulating like plaque in a clogged circulatory system, raising the risk of a "heart attack" [2] - A well-diversified investment portfolio should include 10% to 15% allocation to gold, according to Dalio [2] - Dalio emphasizes that gold is uncorrelated with other assets and tends to rise in value during crises when other assets decline [2] - In a world of "ample debt" and escalating geopolitical tensions, investors should consider whose money they are holding when constructing a neutral investment portfolio [2] Group 2 - Bill Winters, CEO of Standard Chartered, notes that while European market valuations are lower than those in the U.S., the situations are similar, with the UK and France facing stricter market constraints [2] - The S&P 500 and Nasdaq indices have risen over 11% and 13% respectively this year, reaching historical highs, supported by lower-than-expected inflation data that bolsters expectations for a Federal Reserve rate cut [2] - The pan-European Stoxx index has seen a gain of just over 8% year-to-date [2] Group 3 - Dalio previously indicated that the U.S. is experiencing a form of dictatorship reminiscent of the 1930s, warning that a politically weakened Federal Reserve maintaining low interest rates could undermine confidence in the Fed's ability to uphold currency value [3] - This situation could make dollar-denominated debt assets less attractive, thereby weakening the monetary order [3]
