Government debt monetization is the escape valve
Governments can always buy back their own bonds through money printing, even though technically illegal, they've done it before during crises.
US debt structure provides cushion

🏗️ Investment Strategy for High Inflation 3 insights
Hard assets and equities will outperform
During productive inflation with growth, both tangible assets and stocks perform well as companies can raise prices faster than costs.
Government will protect stock markets
Given the financialization of the US economy, authorities will maintain safety nets under equity markets to prevent systemic collapse.
Traditional 60/40 portfolios still viable
Bond yields are controllable through government intervention, making the structural bear market thesis outdated thinking.
🛢️ Geopolitical Market Impacts 2 insights
Oil prices heading higher on supply disruption
UAE leaving OPEC and potential Iranian infrastructure damage from ongoing conflicts will create supply shortages and elevated prices.
Gold positioning for geopolitical uncertainty
Gold markets are waiting to see outcomes of China-Taiwan tensions and broader military conflicts, with 'gold is for war' mentality driving demand.
Bottom Line
Position for 7-9% inflation over the next decade by holding hard assets and quality equities, as governments will print money to fund massive infrastructure buildouts regardless of debt concerns.
