• $GLD— Recommends gold as a hedge against systemic risks rather than inflation, distinguishing it from common inflation-hedging narratives.

  • “Treasury bills, treasury bonds, gold, things like that. But it's not because of the dollar debasement. Gold is a terrible inflation hedge. What gold is a hedge against is systemic errors and systemic changes”

• $EQUITIES— Suggests that equities may continue to perform well despite a deflationary outlook, acknowledging a disconnect between economic fundamentals and asset prices.
