Assets, including gold, stocks, real estate, and Bitcoin, are the way to move out of Dollar devaluation.
Get out of Cash for Building Wealth
According to Morgan Creek Digital Anthony Pompliano, in a YouTube live streaming, stresses that one will have to get out of cash for building wealth.
“The whole secret to building wealth is to get out of cash and get into assets that are denominated in dollars that will continue to go up in value over long periods of time — stocks, real estate, gold, Bitcoin, all this stuff.”
In order to survive and uplift the economy, the Fed has printed and given away enough money. While the giant companies have received bailouts from the government. Pompliano said:
“Don’t believe that the Fed cares about the little guy. The Fed cares about managing an economy and pushing asset prices.”
In the past 49 years, the United States has seen high inflation when compared to gold. And the stock prices have increased when valued in the US dollar. He added:
“Structurally, stock prices are going up over long periods of time with nothing to do with the underlying companies…It has everything to do with the fact that the dollar, the denominator, the thing that the asset is denominated in, is being devalued.”
He compared the infinite supply of cash with the finite supply of Bitcoin. Due to the fixed 21 million BTC supply, it has the capacity to resist inflation.
Due to increasing inflation, asset prices go high as a result. Morgan Creek Digital co-founder said,” They have inflated asset prices by pumping liquidity into the market.”
Unemployment in the US
Pompliano also discussed unemployment in the US that reached highs. According to the data from Tradingeconomics, unemployment jumped from 3.6% in January to 14.7% in April.
“In 1929, which was the start of the Great Depression, there was 3.1% unemployment — record low — and that unemployment jumped from 3.1% to over 8.5%, to then over 15% in the next two years,” Pomp said. “What you end up seeing is we have accelerated faster on the unemployment track than even in the Great Depression.”
