Stansberry Research...

Summary

 

Inflation benefits debtors, the government, and the politically connected elite, but harms the average person and the economy as a whole.

 

  • “I do believe that we are on the cusp or actually in the early stages of the next credit crisis.”
  • Corporate bankruptcies are on the rise, especially among subprime borrowers, with default rates on auto loans at their highest since the last credit crisis.
  • The current situation presents a great opportunity for bond investors to capitalize on the higher interest rates and potential market volatility.
  • At some point, the financial bubble will pop, as it’s inevitable due to the laws of financial nature.
  • “So you know I’m recommending safer bonds today more investment grade type bonds that are yielding six or seven percent. But we’re really waiting for the credit crisis to unfold because that’s when we’re really going to back the truck up and and see the real Bargains and see the real money.”
  • “It’s not that you look forward to the end of the world. It’s just that you understand that at those moments your opportunity is at its greatest right.”
  • With the opportunity to make close to guaranteed 7-9% on a much safer investment than a stock, it’s a new world for bond investors.
  • Interest rates may not be back to the high levels of the 80s and 70s, but they’re not going back to zero either, indicating a big change that many people are not prepared for.
  • Bond investors can recover up to 80-85% of their principal amount even in the worst-case scenario of bankruptcy, making it a safer investment than stocks.
