-- Published: Wednesday, 2 January 2019 | Print | Disqus
– Are we to prepare for a global Debt Bubble Collapse in 2019? – 2019 to see the political and economic uncertainty of 2018 continue and likely to deepen – Investors lulled into a false sense of security by politicians, brokers, bankers etc. – Much “cheer leading” of the “economic recovery” narrative and by extension financial markets – particularly property and stock markets – Trade wars, currency wars, Brexit, Italexit, EU contagion are real risks – Systemic risks posed by Deutsche Bank, Italian/ Irish etc. banks and indeed nations such as Italy, UK, US and the global debt bubble – Risk assets and property to under-perform and precious metals to outperform – Hope for best but be prepared for the worst by increased allocations to cash and gold
