Episode notes
Free Markets Built Modern Wealth
- Faber traces modern economic growth to free markets, railroads and innovation in the 19th century.
- He argues 20th-century central banking and expanding government spending shifted economies toward inflation and regulation.
Diversify Globally And By Asset
- Diversify across asset classes and geographies: stocks, bonds, cash, real estate and precious metals.
- Hold assets in multiple countries to reduce risk from political or wartime expropriation.
Gold Accumulation Is Geopolitical
- Eastern central banks have been net buyers of gold since 2008 as geopolitical and economic power shifted east.
- Faber links gold accumulation to distrust of holding reserves solely in US-dollar assets after freezes of foreign assets.
