Welkom bij de nieuwe mini-serie 'Yoga Nidra: Wat je niet leert in de les'. In deze serie neem ik je mee in de wereld van Yoga Nidra en gaan we de diepte in over thema's zoals het doceren van Yoga Nidra, de Yoga Nidra traditie en het trauma bewust doceren van Yoga Nidra.  In deze eerste aflevering vertel ik je meer over mijn achtergrond in Yoga Nidra en de reis die ik als student en docent aflegde, en nog steeds maak, als het gaat over mijn kennis en ervaring met deze magische practice. Ik vertel je meer over de verschillende vormen en stromingen van Yoga Nidra en hoe ik deze benader en mijn eigen heb gemaakt. Ook ga ik dieper in op hoe ik Yoga Nidra door de jaren heen in mijn Yogalessen heb ingezet, en hoe ik daar nu naar kijk.  Op vrijdag 3 oktober begint de Yoga Nidra Teacher Training 'Een Stevige Basis', waarin je in vier live dagen leert hoe je Yoga Nidra op een professionele en integere manier over brengt. Met veel liefde gedeeld door mij, Sanne Bogers, vanuit mijn fijne Yogaschool in Breda. Meer weten? Je vindt hier alle informatie over de Yoga Nidra Teacher Training.  Geïnspireerd?

In deze aflevering gaan we in gesprek met Stefan van der Putten, docent Leisure & Events Management aan de BUAS in Breda. Stefan vertelt honderduit over zijn ervaringen tijdens zijn jonge maar dynamische loopbaan. Zo studeerde hij aan de Efteling Academy, ging hij als projectleider aan de slag bij thematiseringsbedrijf P&P Projects en werkte hij bij de Efteling als projectcoördinator, deelprojectleider en coördinator integraal ontwerp, onder andere aan Speelbos Nest, het groot onderhoud aan Droomvlucht én Danse Macabre. Stefan deelt de lessen die hij gaandeweg leerde en vertelt hoe hij recent in het onderwijs terecht kwam. Tot slot trakteren we hem natuurlijk op een paar pittige uitsmijters...

This Father's Day, Dion van Breda reminds us that every one of us will leave a legacy - will yours be one that glorifies God and builds up the next generation?A good person leaves an inheritance for their children's children, but a sinner's wealth is stored up for the righteous.Proverbs 13: 22 NIV

In this week's sermon, Dion van Breda teaches that although we are in a real spiritual battle, Satan is not equal to God. He is limited in space, time, and presence. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (Revelation 20: 10 NIV)

In this week's sermon, Dion van Breda teaches that there are two spiritual kingdoms - one that leads to the light, and one that leads to darkness. We need to be careful that we are not led astray.For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Ephesians 6: 21 - 13 NIV

Inside one of South Africa's most exclusive gated communities, 20-year-old Henri van Breda calmly reported a gruesome home invasion—his voice eerily composed as he described his family lying butchered in pools of blood. But as investigators dug deeper, it became clear there was no intruder… only a privileged son with a chilling secret and an axe to grind.

De tweeëntwintigste aflevering van het vierde seizoen van Cinepraatjes, de podcast van Cinemaatjes beginnen we met het opentrekken van een biertje die we kregen van Teun, die we zagen op de BUTplugged avond in Breda. We mochten daar nl. drie keuzefilms pluggen waaruit de aanwezigen de volgende film, die daar gedraaid zal worden, mogen kiezen. Dit keer draaiden ze de keuzefilm van Davy van De Budget Slagers nl. Creepshow op 16mm. Die avond kregen we ook nog iets van ons Maatje Yael Pollie. We staan ook even stil bij het overlijden van George Wendt en ook Morris de Alligator. We hebben een nieuw S-Maatje, die meteen kon genieten van een post op onze Patreon-pagina. We kijken niet echt uit naar de nieuwe Toxic Avenger en zijn ontzettend verbaasd dat Johan Nijenhuis weer een ‘Verliefd op…' film gaat maken, maar hebben wel een goed idee ervoor. We horen eindelijk het sonnet van Marino, waarvan we in de vorige podcast het antwoord al hebben gehoord. William keek de Jesus Franco film ‘The Awful Dr. Orlof', want die moesten we toch pluggen op BUTplugged. JP zag de Franstalige film ‘Les Chambres Rouges' oftewel ‘Red Rooms' uit 2023 en William kijk op Prime ook nog naar ‘The Assessment' met o.a. Elizabeth Olsen en Alicia Vikander. We trokken een film die nog niet eens uit de verpakking is gekomen en vast met een reden. In onze Special blikken we weer eens terug op een oude review om te kijken of onze mening over de film nog hetzelfde is en dit keer blikken we terug op Lucio Fulci's ‘The Beyond' en we beantwoorden weer vragen van luisteraars over o.a. hoe we een cijfer geven aan een film, waar de nieuwe James Bond film aan moet voldoen, of het erg is als je ‘Mission: Impossible' prefereert boven ‘James Bond', welke film van genre mag wisselen en welke filmtitels ons leven omschrijven.

RTÉ reporter Joe Caulfield spoke with Breda and Pat Curran in Ballyfermot after their house was firebombed. Gardai believe it was a case of mistaken identity and the wrong house was attacked.

Onlangs bezochten Blood Incantation en Wiegedood het Utrechtse TivoliVredenburg om albums van begin tot einde te spelen. Osmium, de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands, was uiteraard aanwezig om het nu al klassieke Absolute Elsewhere en het baanbrekende drieluik De Doden Hebben Het Goed integraal tot zich te nemen. Dat blijkt een vruchtbare inspiratiebron voor het onderwerp van deze aflevering: concerten waarbij de setlist in feite een tracklist is. Wat ooit begon als een exclusieve belevenis, lijkt steeds meer te verzanden in geforceerde fanservice. Hoog tijd dus om integrale albumsets eens onder de loep te nemen. Waarom is de ene integrale set een meeslepende ervaring, terwijl de andere integrale set door gebrek aan spontaniteit juist inzakt? Hoor je liever een oud en vertrouwd album of juist vers materiaal dat live zijn glans nog moet bewijzen? Is de integrale albumset überhaupt een verrijking voor het concertlandschap? Gelukkig zijn de luister- en concerttips een verrijking van iedere Osmium-aflevering. Op muzikaal vlak volgen aanbevelingen voor zowel kinderen als gevorderden, en kan er uit vier concerten (waarvan twee integrale albumsets) op één avond gekozen worden. Het oplettende oor vangt ook nog eens de tijd en coördinaten van de Osmium meet-up voor 2025 op. Haal je kompas maar tevoorschijn! Met beeldmateriaal van Ruben Verheul en muziek van Wiegedood. Onderwerpen: Wiegedood - Prowl (00:00) Introductie over je pensioen verbrassen aan wandelschoenen en blaarception (00:14) Introductie van het onderwerp: integrale albumsets (03:40) Exclusiviteit van integrale albumsets, is dat nou leuk? (07:47) Wat is beter: integrale sets van oude of nieuwe albums? (11:22) Sfeerverhogende factoren van integrale albumsets (14:00) Gebrek aan spontaniteit en harmoniseren van verwachtingen (18:14) Hoe lang duurt de ideale setlist, en hoe vul je die tijd? (28:21) Headline setlists versus festival setlists (39:58) Belang van authenticiteit in integrale albumsets (47:08) Definitieve eindoordeel: zijn integrale albumsets nou leuk of niet? (50:58) Luistertip van Pim: Scowl - Are We All Angels, een niet authentieke, kinderachtige mengelmoes die toch aanstekelijk is (54:20) Luistertip van Niels: Cave Sermon - Fragile Wings, een verfrissende lente post-rock plaat die toch wel heel erg metal is (01:00:27) Concerttip van Pim: een vierluik van concerten op maandag 11 augustus dat concertgangers nieuwe levels van fomo laat bereiken (01:05:43) Concerttip van Niels: Coffeyfest in Skatepark Pier 15 te Breda, een verrassend festival in de staart van het zomerseizoen met potentie voor een Osmium meet-up (01:09:55) Shout-outs (01:13:31) Links: Concertverslag Blood Incantation in TivoliVredenburg (Ronda zaal) Concertverslag Blood Incantation in TivoliVredenburg (Pandora zaal) Scowl Bandcamp Cave Sermon Bandcamp Between The Buried And Me en REZN in Poppodium 013 Pelican in Hall Of Fame Inter Arma en Wayfarer in Doornroosje The Fall Of Troy in De Helling Coffey Fest in Skatepark Pier 15 Ruben Verheul (Wishful Doing)

In our Mother's Day service, Dion van Breda preached from the Book of Exodus. Using the example of Jochebed, he taught that parents need to have the faith and courage to raise their children up in the ways of the Lord, and not to allow the world to shape their hearts and minds.

Er is bijna geen metalband die zonder zit: een cover van een plaat uit een heel ander genre. Maar waarom doen ze dat? Welke variaties kent dit genre? En hoe zak je niet door het ijs? Nederlands leukste metalcoverband, Pene Corrida, vertelt er werkelijk waar alles over. Van Bamboleo tot Wrecking Ball, en van the Ring of Fire tot Oops I Did It Again: die altijd stoere metalbands vinden het stiekem heer-lijk om platen uit heel andere genres te coveren. Soms is het resultaat ronduit geweldig, zoals The Legend of Zelda door August Burns Read. En soms is het resultaat ronduit desastreus, zoals Wicked Games door In Flames, of The Sound of Silence van Disturbed. Maar waarom doen toch zoveel metalbands een poging? Is het simpelweg effectbejag om te scoren over andermans rug? Of zit er een groter artistiek plan achter? De enige en allerbeste bron om die vragen aan te stellen, is natuurlijk Nederlands metalcovertrots, Pene Corrida. Al bijna 15 jaar speelt dit collectief uit Dordrecht, Breda en Rotterdam de sterren van de coverhemel, met publiekslievelingen als Europapa, Let It Go en Captain Jack, maar ook met muzikale vondsten zoals een medley van Prodigy-kneiters. Voor Dood & Verderf zocht de band de 7 meest opvallende metalcovers uit. Aan de hand daarvan bespreek ik met de zangers Danny Feijtel en Bart van Beek de hoogte- en dieptepunten van dit opmerkelijke subgenre, en leren we alles over de do's en dont's van de metalcover.

This week, Dion van Breda preached from the book of Exodus on the Lord's power to redeem us from slavery to sin, fear, addiction, and oppression. “On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the Lord. 13 The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt."Exodus 12: 12 - 13

De eenentwintigste aflevering van het vierde seizoen van Cinepraatjes, de podcast van Cinemaatjes namen we in het donker op. Helaas zijn we een Maatje kwijt. We gaan binnenkort naar de BUTPlugged avond in Breda waar ‘Creepshow' op 16mm zal worden vertoond, en zullen daar ook onze eigen drie keuze-films pitchen. Onze review van ‘Evils of the Night' gaat als een speer en gaat hopelijk meer dan 5000 views halen. Uiteraard proberen we weer het sonnet van Marino te raden en William lijkt het zeker te weten. William zag de scifi-thriller ‘Predestination' uit 2014 met Sarah Snook en Ethan Hawke en een “ingewikkeld” tijdreis-plot. JP ging naar de bioscoop om enthousiast over de nieuwe film ‘Sinners' te praten met een dubbelrol van Michael B. Jordan. We trokken toevalligerwijs de muzikale DVD van Gorillaz uit de kast. In de Special vervolgen we de Elm Street franchise en zijn aangekomen bij ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master' uit 1988, één van de succesvolste uit de serie. Misschien wel doordat we in het donker zaten of vanwege andere oorzaken, liep het antwoord van Marino anders dan gepland en uiteraard beantwoorden we weer vragen van luisteraars over o.a. acteurs en actrices die het gewoonweg niet hebben, favoriete Aziatische genre-films, ‘Jurassic Park' met andere dieren, leuke movie tropes en wederom favoriete film-tieten.

Inside Books is a regular popular author interview podcast presented by Breda Brown. In this episode Breda is in conversation with Tom Lyons is one of Ireland's most decorated journalists, winning a string of awards and accolades for his coverage of Irish business and finance over the past two decades. He is the co-author of two bestselling books - The Fitzpatrick Tapes and Fingers, and a presenter of Inside Irish Nationwide - a full length television documentary.

Hiring activity across key sectors in Ireland showed resilience in Q1 2025, with job postings at Matrix Recruitment rising 15.3% year-on-year, despite economic uncertainty. According to the latest Workforce Trends Report from Matrix Recruitment, employers demonstrated a cautious but steady approach to hiring in the first quarter of 2025, particularly in sectors with ongoing talent shortages, such as Manufacturing, Engineering, and Financial Services. "While economic uncertainty remains a concern, we are seeing strong demand for skilled professionals across multiple industries," said Breda Dooley, Head of Recruitment at Matrix Recruitment. "Manufacturing remains a key generator of jobs in Ireland, and we are seeing increased investment in ESG roles. The market is evolving, and job seekers with in-demand skills will continue to be at an advantage." Sector-Specific Trends The latest data from AIB's manufacturing PMI reported a modest upturn in manufacturing performance in the first quarter of the year on the back of increased production and new contracts. This was reflected in hiring trends with manufacturing accounting for over 25% of live job listings at Matrix Recruitment in Q1 2025. The number of manufacturing roles grew by 29% in Q1 2025 compared to the same time last year with Matrix Recruitment reporting that employers are actively recruiting for a wider range of technical and supervisory positions, with job titles like Production Manager, Maintenance Technician, Mechanical Design Engineer, and Production Team Leader driving the surge. Roles related to environment, sustainability, and green strategy rose YOY (5%), signalling that more employers in Ireland are recognising the importance of ESG as part of their overall business strategy and investing accordingly. Permanent vs. Temporary Roles Demand for permanent positions rose by 10.5% in Q1 2025, accounting for over 65% of all job listings at Matrix Recruitment. Meanwhile, temporary hiring surged by 16.7%, indicating a shift toward workforce flexibility.Speaking about this uptick in temp and contract roles, Breda Dooley said: "The growth in short-term project and cover roles is clearly a reflection of the economic uncertainty we are feeling at the minute. Many businesses are focused on staying agile and prioritising their short-term operational needs over future growth." Regional Hiring Hotspots The services sector saw a surge in hiring, particularly for administrative and clerical roles, with job postings increasing by 28.6% in counties such as Westmeath and Kildare. Waterford witnessed a notable rise in engineering and manufacturing roles, aligning with ongoing industry investment in the Southeast. Manufacturing jobs were also particularly strong in Roscommon, Cavan, and Westmeath. Trump Tariffs v Job Creation As Ireland continues to navigate the complexities of the global economic landscape, several key factors will influence hiring trends for the remainder of the year. Among these, global trade tensions remain a central concern. The Irish Government has warned that up to 80,000 future jobs could be at risk if the US proceeds with additional tariffs on the EU. Although the tariffs have now been confirmed, they are currently subject to a 90-day pause, providing a window for negotiation and potential resolution. This period of uncertainty means that while certain sectors, including automotive, machinery, electronics, minerals, and agriculture, may be more vulnerable to disruption, the full extent of the impact remains to be seen. Matrix Recruitment has noted a potential for sharper-than-expected slowdown in job growth, following the US administration's April 2nd announcement. However, with EU leaders hoping to engaging in dialogue with the US, there remains cautious optimism that an agreement could mitigate the worst-case scenarios. Focusing on SMEs, Breda warns: "Already under pressure from recent increases in sick pay and the minimum wage, SMEs are facing mounting ch...

In de zevende aflevering van ‘Alle registers open' reist Elsbeth Gruteke af naar Breda. Ze ontmoet daar Aart Bergwerff bij het Hillen-orgel van de Grote of Onze Lieve Vrouwekerk, wat helemaal in de steigers staat, want vlak voor de restauratie. Aart wist al op jonge leeftijd dat hij de muziek in wilde. Het is een instrument dat rijk is aan kleuren. Je hebt als het ware de beschikking over een schilderspalet en je kunt de mooiste (klank-) kleuren mengen. Dat vindt Aart tot op de dag van vandaag een uitdaging en het gebeurt nog regelmatig dat hij nieuwe registercombinaties ontdekt.  Hij schuwt het niet om ook andere muziek op het kerkorgel te spelen en heeft zich erop toegelegd werken uit andere stijlen voor orgel te arrangeren. Zo hoopt hij een breder publiek aan te spreken en het orgel meer onder de aandacht van de mensen te brengen. Wil je meer orgelmuziek beluisteren?

In this episode of Beyond the Tech, Bryan and Alex sit down with Valeria Breda, CIO of Versace, to explore her inspiring journey through the world of luxury fashion and technology. Valeria shares how her early days at Louis Vuitton, followed by senior roles at Kering (including Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen), shaped her approach to leadership, innovation, and resilience in a dynamic industry. Valeria opens up about the unique challenges of balancing brand autonomy with group-level strategy, while also reflecting on the deep passion embedded in Versace's culture, the importance of breaking down silos, and what it means to lead with both authority and influence in a heritage brand undergoing transformation. The conversation explores the evolving role of technology as an enabler rather than a full-blooded disruptor, with Valeria speaking candidly about Versace's enthusiastic embrace of AI and other digital innovations. She is clear, however, that while technology is playing a growing role in streamlining operations and driving innovation, it will not compromise or intrude upon the brand's creative and design processes. Finally, she shares her personal leadership journey as a woman in tech, offering honest reflections and valuable advice for emerging female leaders and detailing how she built resilience and influence in a traditionally male-dominated industry.Listeners will hear honest reflections on imposter syndrome, digital transformation, the convergence of retail and e-commerce, and what it really takes to lead change in a high-pressure, highly creative environment. Whether you're in fashion, tech, or leadership, this episode is packed with insights, strategy, and inspiration you won't want to miss.

Rick Berkelmans, beter bekend als Hedof, maakt illustraties voor grote merken zoals Nike, Apple, Google en voor festivals en winkelcentra over de hele wereld. In deze aflevering vertelt Rick hoe hij zijn illustratiecarrière heeft opgebouwd vanuit zijn studio in Breda en deelt hij openhartig hoe hij opdrachten krijgt, zijn prijzen bepaalt en waarom ondernemen net zo belangrijk is als tekenen. Hij legt uit hoe hij ooit blufte dat hij kon vector-illustreren voor een gigantisch winkelcentrum in Korea (en het toen razendsnel moest leren), waarom hij niet zonder sociale interactie kan, en hoe één enthousiaste reactie op Instagram tot een campagne voor Nike leidde. Leuk als je meeluistert!

Een paar weken geleden vertelden we je over Chillville, een reggae festival in Breda dat niet doorging en ticketkopers liet fluiten naar hun geld. De mensen achter het festival lieten zich maandenlang niet bereiken, maar nu beweert een van hen dat ook hij om de tuin geleid is. En verder: hoe staat het met de positie van vrouwen in de popmuziek?

Hace más de cien años, los hermanos Ortiz de Taranco, de ascendencia española, construían el Palacio Taranco, donde desde la década de los 70 funciona el Museo de Artes Decorativas, ubicado en Ciudad Vieja. Además de alojar parte del mobiliario y la decoración original, el Museo alberga una colección de pinturas y esculturas europeas de gran valor histórico y artístico. Justamente, la semana pasada el Museo puso en exposición el tapiz "La rendición de Breda", una reproducción en seda de la pintura de Diego Velázquez del año 1635, entregado a la familia Ortiz en 1920. La pieza estuvo conservada en mal estado durante años. Hasta que, en 2023, con la ayuda de la Comisión de Patrimonio, el Museo pudo concretar su restauración, un proceso que llevó nueve meses y se realizó durante el años pasado en España. Para la historia de los museos en Uruguay, este trabajo es un hecho sin precedentes en la conservación de objetos históricos y patrimoniales. Por primera vez, una pieza de tan grandes dimensiones (pesa 50 kilos) se manda a restaurar a Europa, nada menos que a la Real Fábrica de Tapices de Madrid, la misma que lo confeccionó la pieza hace más de 100 años. ¿En qué consistió este proceso? ¿Cuál es la historia detrás de esta pieza? ¿Qué trabajo hace hoy el Museo de Artes Decorativas? Conversamos En Perspectiva con Micaela Villalba, arquitecta y directora del Museo de Artes Decorativas del Palacio Taranco.

Pimpelen, tetteren, buizen of gewoon zuipen! Daar hebben we het deze week over.

De beruchte SS’er Willem van der Neut ontsnapte in 1952 uit de Koepelgevangenis in Breda en wist te ontkomen naar Duitsland. Bijna 75 jaar later stuit Volkskrant-journalist Rik Kuiper op de honderden liefdesbrieven die deze ‘beul van Amersfoort’ na de oorlog vanuit de gevangenis schreef. Dat leidde in 2021 tot een artikelenreeks in de krant, en nu is er een boek: Liefdesbrieven van een kampbeul. Onze journalistiek steunen?

Even voorstellen. Het begon als sms-verwerker voor discotheken, inmiddels is het de grootste ticketverkoper van ons land. We hebben het over CM.com uit Breda. Dat bedrijf belooft met AI werknemers te vervangen. Iets waarmee ze de concurrentie aangaan met het grote Microsoft. Deze aflevering hoor je of dat haalbaar is of dat het een kansloze missie gaat worden. Dan hoor je óók over ING. De winst is in elkaar gezakt en toch is de topman vrolijk. Uitstekend gaan de zaken, zo zegt 'ie. Minder goed gaan de zaken bij Volvo. Eigenlijk is Volvo een klikspaan, want de autobouwer zegt dat het bedrijf (en alle andere concurrenten) een heel slecht jaar tegemoet gaat. Ook hoor je over het Belgische succesverhaal Lotus. Die koekjes lijken wel van goud.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last month a series of wildfires spread across communities in Los Angeles and left a trail of destruction in their wake. Tens of thousands of people were forced to evacuate their neighborhoods. Over 15,000 homes and other structures were burned. And at least two dozen people were killed. It's well documented that climate change contributes to making fires like these worse. And it also exacerbates other hazards like droughts, floods, and storms. So what can local leaders in LA and in other communities in the US and around the world do in the wake of these extreme events to address systemic risks and proactively reduce catastrophic disasters? Today you'll hear from Anita van Breda, WWF's senior director for environment and disaster management. Anita has decades of experience working with communities affected by natural hazards, and she'll share her insights on disaster risk management and recovery in the wake of this most recent tragedy in LA.

Victorian London was a city of immense wealth, but also shocking poverty. The historian Jerry White described it as "a metropolis of wealth, grandeur, culture, and sophistication alongside a hell of starving, degrading, and heart-rending poverty." The largest city in the world at the time, London was also home to tens of thousands of Irish emigrants. While there was a wealthy Irish elite, the vast majority were poor labourers.While surviving the daily grind of life in the slums of the Victorian city, they also faced suspicion and racism.In this podcast, historian Breda Corish shares their stories based on her research in the Whitechapel area of the city.A graduate of University College London, Breda's research focuses on the Irish in London over the centuries.

Whether it's the freckled adolescent she noticed whilst refuelling in Wyoming, the Dutch author, poet and columnist Remco Campert, or the boy Randy she met in Nevada whilst on her American road trip, de Puy sees the camera as an aid to understand the deeply personal traits and histories of each person, and how they also reveal something about herself. Many of her encounters are fleeting; a heartfelt glance into the life of someone else before time resumes its frantic pace. In others, as with Randy, those same transient experiences blossom into profound and enduring relationships. Regardless of which ending they have, de Puy's photographs are always imbued with a sensitivity and timelessness that encourages a slow gaze on the human condition. Her images are chances for genuine human connection, and through sharing with them with the world, allow us to take part in such moments.Robin de Puy studied at the Fotoacademie Rotterdam and has been exhibited internationally at institutions and galleries including; Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht (2018); Museum Hilversum, Hilversum (2017); The Hague Museum of Photography, The Hague (2016); Stedelijk Museum, Breda (2016) and Photoville, New York (2016).

Keith discusses the current state of the US economy, noting that while it is considered strong by conventional measures, there are four major threats on the horizon that the country is not doing enough to address. He's joined by our guest, macroeconomic expert, Richard Duncan to discuss these topics. Richard proposes a solution that could strengthen the US's competitive position against China. Shifting from Capitalism to Creditism. Also, hear about the risks facing the real estate and stock markets in the near-term, such as the historically high wealth-to-income ratio and the ongoing quantitative tightening by the Federal Reserve.

This is get rich education.   Keith Weinhold  1:28   Welcome to GRE from Fort Wayne, Indiana to Fort Lee New Jersey and across 188 nations worldwide. I'm Keith Weinhold, and you are back inside get rich education. We've been here for you, every single week since 2014 coming off of an election last week, this spurs more macroeconomic thought, monetary and fiscal policy, and more than that. And you know, one thing that I'm always looking for are signs of inflation versus deflation, because we live in a long term inflationary world. Well, you wouldn't keep a million bucks under a mattress because it would only be worth 300k in a few decades. But in deflation, you would flip your strategy and actually be a saver. You might keep millions out of the mattress, because deflation would actually increase the purchasing power of every single one of your dollars. Now, I've got a pretty unpopular take for you here at some point, probably now you've got to give the Fed credit for a soft landing. And what does a soft landing mean? Exactly. It means bringing down inflation without putting the economy into a recession. Well, inflation is down to about 2% now, unemployment is still low, near 4% and GDP growth for last quarter came in at 2.8% okay, yes, I sure understand that those benefits are distributed unevenly, but at this point, how much more of a soft landing Do you really want? And by the way, this sure doesn't mean that I love the Federal Reserve. I mean, they get no credit from me for not jumping on inflation sooner, when it peaked two and a half years ago, or even before that point, well, those high consumer prices as a result of that are still with us, and that's a problem, and they got that part wrong. We're about to talk with our global macroeconomic expert, really. He is one of the foremost authorities in the entire world today. We're going to talk about four major catastrophes the US economic future faces. One of those four is our ballooning national debt and deficit. And to review that for you, first, the debt is our overall accumulation of debt over the years now at 36 trillion. And when it comes to these awful, dreadful debt and deficit issues, I will ask our guests the question, when is it game over? Where is that tipping point? What would need to happen and the deficit? Okay, that refers to the annual shortfall, the annual thing, that shortfall that our bloated government keeps coming up with at the end of every year, all right, so therefore revenue minus spending equals deficit. Another way to say that is income minus expenses equals a deficit when the expenses are greater than the income. Well, that figure is near $2 trillion we're spending 2 trillion more than we raise in revenue each year. And here's an example. I'll use real world numbers rounded off to the nearest trillion. So if the government's annual revenue is only 5 trillion and you have to subtract out spending, which is 7 trillion, that could. Gives us an annual deficit of 2 trillion, pretty simple stuff, and that more or less gets added onto our overall debt of 36 trillion. Another major problem is this growing competition from China. Yes, I know that people like to discuss their demographic problems, but still, their population is more than four times the US population, and you learn about what other advantages they have over us and what we direly need to do to catch up. In our guests opinion, these issues incur some rather detailed explanations. So I'm really going to let our guest expert takeover for a while today, this weekend, I will be in San Antonio, Texas. San Antonio is an uptrending real estate market because they are really a beneficiary in distribution with their proximity to Mexico in the near shoring movement that's taking place. And then I will be in Austin, Texas, for a few days, Austin is one of the few major US metros that have seen rents substantially decline recently. I'll bring you next week's show from Austin, where I might talk more about that. Then, from the 20th to the 24th of this month, I'll be in New Orleans at the famed New Orleans investment conference, where they're pulling out all the stops at the 50th anniversary of the event, and that is the longest running investment event in America and perhaps the world. I hope to meet some of you there in New Orleans, just like I do each time I'm at the event. Let's talk about the bigger picture economy that your real estate and investments float within next.   This week's guest is the author of four books analyzing the crises that brought the global economy to the brink of collapse in recent decades. One of the books forecast the 2008 global financial crisis with great accuracy. We're going to discuss future crises here today, before we're done, he has worked as an equities and Investment Analyst, and then he went on to hold some rather esteemed roles at the World Bank in DC and as a consultant to the IMF in Asia. He joins us from Thailand today. He now publishes a video newsletter called macro watch, and long time listeners know that today's guest was also this show's very first guest that was back on GRE podcast episode seven, only 10 years ago now, in November 2014, and he's really become quite the friend of the show, and we've looked out for each other ever since. It's terrific to have back global macro economist Richard Duncan   Richard Duncan  7:46   Keith, hey, thank you for having me back. It's great to speak with you again.   Keith Weinhold  7:50   Oh, it's so good to have you here an entire decade of our lives. And as times change, economies are surely dynamic, and you're so good at spotlighting crises and explaining them in a way to people that they can understand. So Richard, why don't you talk to us now about risks facing the nation? Yes, I'm talking about the United States.   Richard Duncan  8:15   A lot of podcasts focus on all the problems the United States is facing, and it is certainly true that the United States is facing very serious risk. So I'd like to start off this conversation telling you what I think the greatest risk facing our country are. There are four main things I'd like to hit on. The first is something you mentioned to me before in our exchange of emails, is that the US government does have a very high level of government debt relative to GDP, and the budget deficits are large. So that's problem number one. Problem number two, in my opinion, looking at this from where I live in Asia, is that the United States is at risk of being conquered by China in the not too distant future. Risk Number Two. Risk Number three, we have very serious domestic political divisions within the United States. Risk Number four is that our post capitalist economic system, which I call creditism, must have credit growth to survive. If credit contracts, then our economy will spiral into a Great Depression that will be probably worse than the one of the 1930s so those are the big four problems that we have, and it doesn't do anyone any good just to talk about our country's problems if you don't offer a solution to them. So in my opinion, all of these problems can be overcome by accelerating economic growth in the United States, while all of these problems would be made very much worse by anything that causes us economic growth to slow down. The way to make the US economy grow much faster is to have the US Government finance a very, very large investment in the industries and technologies of the future over the next 10 years, starting immediately. The alternative austerity would cause the economy to spiral down into deflation. We'd like your listeners to think of austerity when they hear the word austerity. I'd like them to think of the word death. It's austerity is equal to death. Yeah, the US doesn't have to be a declining power. The first American Century doesn't have to be the last. It can be the first of many. The solution for driving the US economy to grow much more rapidly and solving all four of the problems that I mentioned above is a US sovereign wealth fund. Thank heavens. Both parties now support the establishment of a US sovereign wealth fund. On September 5, former President Trump came out in support of establishing a US sovereign wealth fund, and on the following day, the Biden administration said, then working on this for months and had a plan that they were developing. So this is fantastic news for the United States. It offers great hope for solving all of our greatest problems. And I'd like to spend, you know, a few minutes explaining to your listeners what a US sovereign wealth fund is, yes, urgently necessary, and why both parties have now come to understand why this is important to establish.   Keith Weinhold  11:27   Yeah, please tell us why you think the US sovereign wealth fund is so urgently needed, and what it is because for even longer than the 10 years since you were first here, for about 15 years now, you have championed and promoted this US sovereign wealth fund. You discussed it on CNBC Squawk Box and all over the place. Last year, you presented about it in a speech in DC to 15 members of the House, Ways and Means Committee. So tell us about the US sovereign wealth fund and why you think it's urgently needed.   Richard Duncan  11:56    Let's begin with, what is a sovereign wealth fund? Well, effectively, a sovereign wealth fund is where a country invest in individual companies or even in startups. There are sovereign wealth funds all around the world. Norway has the largest, Singapore has two very effective ones called gdic and Temasek, which had been enormously profitable and successful, and it made the people in Singapore much richer. So a sovereign wealth fund in the United States would be an investment bond financed by the United States government with the US. This investment fund would take stakes in existing companies and also in startup companies, hopefully on a very large scale. Now, some people have asked, Why is this framework necessary? Why do we need a sovereign wealth fund to do that when the government is already making investments in the military, for instance, and funding some R and D research? Well, the difference between what the government is doing now and a sovereign wealth fund is with a sovereign wealth fund, the government would actually keep equity stakes in these companies that they invest in, meaning that when these companies they invest in become enormously profitable, the profits would be owned by every American. The Americans would have the equity stakes in all of the investments that this sovereign wealth fund makes. And it would be a situation where the government provides the financing, but the private sector manages the companies. The government just finances these companies in new industries and new technologies, and the government has the ability to invest on a very much larger scale than the private sector does. For example, The United States has a lot of great companies in the private sector that have accomplished really, truly great things in recent years and long past as well. But these private sector companies cannot invest on the same scale that the Chinese government can. The Chinese government is investing on a much larger scale than any of the American companies could ever dream to invest on. And that's explains why China is overtaking us now technologically, and if they continue to invest at a rapid rate that they're doing currently, then before long, there are going to be far ahead of us technologically and therefore economically, and more worryingly, militarily, the US government has the ability to invest truly on a multi trillion dollar scale over the next decade in new industries and technologies, things like artificial intelligence, quantum computing, nanotech, biotech, genetic engineering and developing energy sources like fusion, and it has the ability to do this on such a large scale that it would be certain to succeed. And once these companies start creating cancer vaccines or fusion, for instance, they would be enormously profitable, and they could be listed on. NASDAQ at multi trillion dollar valuations, and the American public would own equity stakes in these companies, and would then would directly reap the rewards of these profits that these companies would generate. That is what a sovereign wealth fund is, why it's desperately needed, is, well, first of all, we should do it, because we can easily afford to do it. And the results, the breakthroughs, the technological breakthroughs and medical miracles that these sorts of companies would produce, would we really have the shot of curing all the diseases and radically extending life expectancy, developing sources of limitless energy that would bring down the cost of energy radically. Just across the board, it would induce a technological revolution that would turbo charge us economic growth, create UNDRIP wealth, and at the same time, shore up US national security in the face of this growing threat from China. So for all of those reasons, it is urgently necessary. In my opinion.   Keith Weinhold  16:04   both Norway and Singapore have had similar models to this. US sovereign wealth fund, and we certainly think of those two nations as prosperous places, tell me more about why it's a success so the government finances it does that incentivize companies to therefore take more risk?   Richard Duncan  16:25   It allows them to invest more. It allows them to invest on a much larger scale than that. Could if they have to rely on their own funding sources. Rather than investing millions of dollars, they could invest billions of dollars or 10s of billions of dollars. For instance, at the moment, the National Cancer Institute in the United States, this annual budget is $6 billion a year. $6 billion a year is not curing cancer. If we look back a few years ago, the Fed was creating $120 billion a month through quantitative easing per month. So with just 5% of one month of QE, you could double the National Cancer Institute's budget. Now that's not what this sovereign wealth fund would do. That just illustrates the scale. How much greater the scale would be that the government could invest on relative to what is currently being invested at the moment by the government and by the private sector combined.   Keith Weinhold  17:28   Do any critics ever ask about Wait? Is this too much government intervention into the free market? Is this a move away from capitalism? What do you say to those sort of critics?   Richard Duncan  17:38    I say to them that capitalism died in World War One. It certainly didn't survive the 20th century. Now the government. In the 19th century, we had capitalism. The government had very little involvement in the economy then and gold was money. But now gold is no longer money. The Fed creates some money. Government spending is something like nearly $7 trillion out of a GDP. That is around just not quite $30 trillion yet. So the government has been directing the economy going back at least since World War Two. This hasn't been capitalism for a very long time. Under capitalism, the private sector made investments, and some businessmen would make profits from their investments, and they would save that profit as capital and reinvest that capital. That's how capitalism grew. That's why they called it capitalism. It was based on capital accumulation and investment. But that's not how our economic system has worked for decades. Our system now is not driven by investment and saving by the private sector. It's driven by credit creation and consumption and more credit creation and more consumption and our economies has now been transformed from capitalism. It has evolved into creditism, with the government playing the directing role. So total credit in the United States, just last quarter blew through $100 trillion for the first time. By what I mean by total credit is the same thing as total debt. Total credit is equal to total debt. So this is all the debt of all sectors of the economy, the government sector, the household sector, the corporate sector, the financial sector, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac all the sectors of the economy, it just went through $100 trillion and Breda ism has created very rapid growth, especially all around the world, not only in the United States, because it has allowed the US economy to grow so rapidly and to import so much from other countries that this is why The Asian miracle occurred. I've lived through the Asian miracle because the US has been running massively large trade deficits since the early 1980s and all these countries in Asia have been running massively large trade surpluses, and all this spending that the Americans have been doing has been fueled by this rapidly. Radically expansion of credit. Total credit first went through $1 trillion in 1964 now it's $100,000,000,000,000. 60 years later. Now our system is not capitalism. The government is very involved. Anytime there's any problem with the economy, the government steps in. In 2008 the government prevented a new Great Depression when the private sector the households defaulted on their debts and caused all the banks to fail, and Freddie Mac did fail and had to be taken over by the government. So at that time, we narrowly avoided a Great Depression, because the government increased its budget deficits by more than a trillion dollars a year for four years in a row, and the Fed expanded. The Fed created three and a half trillion dollars between the end of 2007 and 2014, expanding its balance sheet by about five times. So that's not capitalism. We don't have capitalism. So people who are worried about us abandoning capitalism. They're behind the times that happened a long time ago. That shouldn't be a concern. They should be aware now that we are competing against players who don't play by the capitalist rules of little government intervention in the markets we're now competing against China, and China is one giant sovereign wealth fund intent on dominating the world by investing very aggressively in new industries and technologies. In the year 2000 the United States invested, I think, 10 times as much in research and development as China did. But now China is actually investing more in research and development and the US is and that explains why China is ahead in so many areas of technology. They had 5g years before we did. They are the leaders in electric vehicles and batteries. We have to put up 100% tariffs to keep out electric vehicles from China because they're so much better than our electric vehicles. They dominate solar panels. And are worse, they have hypersonic missiles and we don't, and I'm sure they have other military advantages that we don't, because they invest much more aggressively in new industries and technologies than our government does. And if we don't rectify this quickly, then we are soon going to be overtaken by China militarily, and our national security is at risk, much more than most Americans understand. But this realization has slowly grown on policymakers in Washington, and now both parties are worried about this, and this is why we have this growing fear of China, and why we have proposals to limit technology transfers to China, and this is why we've done things like the chips and science act, where the government has agreed to finance a $280 billion investment in new industries and technologies a couple of years ago, with 50 billion of that going into setting up manufacturing facilities within the in the US to create semiconductors, rather than relying solely on Taiwan to obtain all of our semiconductors, because China could take Taiwan at any moment, and then then he would end up with all the semiconductor chips that go into powering artificial intelligence. And whoever develops Artificial General Intelligence first is going to rule the world, and therefore it had better be the United States rather than China, because we don't want to live in a world dominated by China, believe me.    Keith Weinhold  23:26   Well, a lot of macro voices agree with you. About two months ago, we had the president of the Mises Institute here, and the way he characterized things are in the United States. 100 years ago, we had islands of socialism in a sea of capitalism, and today we merely have islands of capitalism in a sea of socialism. Do you see the US sovereign wealth fund being able to solve all four of the United States big problems that you outlined, debt and deficit conquering by China, political division and creditism. Can it solve all four of those?   Richard Duncan  24:04   Yes, it can. So as you know, Keith, a couple of years ago, I published my fourth book. It was called the money revolution. Yeah? How to find the book? Sure, yeah. How to finance the next American century. It was a subtitle. Now I argue that it would be very easy for the US to invest on a multi trillion dollar scale, new industries and new technologies over the next decade, and if we do that through a sovereign wealth fund, then would generate so much growth and be so profitable that instead of causing the government debt to increase, it would actually make the economy so much larger and generate so many more tax revenues, and the government would make so many profits from these companies that it has equity stakes in that it would reduce the government debt in absolute terms, and radically reduce the government debt relative to GDP, which would grow far faster than it has been growing in recent decades. This problem, number one, solved the high level of government debt. A high level of debt to GDP just make the GDP grow a lot faster, and the ratio of debt to GDP will go down. Problem number two is the US is at risk of being conquered by China. We can out invest China. We can invest more than China can afford to invest. We still have the best universities and the best entrepreneurs and scientists. So if we invest on a large enough scale, we will win, and China will not conquer us. Third, if the economy is growing at 7% a year instead of 1% a year, that is going to alleviate a lot of the domestic tensions that exist currently, much of the reason there's the origins of this domestic political divide that we're now suffering from in the US is because such a large part of the population has been left behind when all the factories moved overseas, countries like China and Vietnam, we de industrialized, and the people who Used to have good factory jobs, good, unionized, high paying factory jobs. All those people were left out in the cold, and they're not happy about it. And so if our economy were growing much more rapidly, these people would have much better jobs and much higher salaries, and they would be much happier than they are at the moment. And the final one was our post capitalist system of creditism requires credit growth to survive. So if the government is financing these investments on a multi trillion dollar scale, it's going to make credit expand, and that's going to keep the economy expanding. So yes, it would solve all four of those problems.   Keith Weinhold  26:35   One of those four problems is the debt and the deficit. I want to dive into that more with Richard as it becomes more and more problematic in the United States, and just how far we can kick this can down the road. You're listening to get rich education.

Listen to get rich education with Keith Weinhold, and don't quit your Daydream.   Keith Weinhold  28:55   Welcome back to get rich education. We are going big this week, talking about the global economy, although mostly centered on the United States, with macroeconomist Richard Duncan. You can learn more about him at RichardDuncaneconomics.com and Richard I want to talk about the debt in the deficit. The debt is the United States overall debt as it accumulates year after year, and the deficit is just the annual thing, and it's so interesting and concerning. When I look at this, when you look at the line items in the United States government's annual spending, we now see that interest payments are taking the second largest chunk, only to Social Security. Social Security's number one interest is the second biggest expense, even more than defense spending and on Medicare. So I just wonder, as I see the interest payments going up and up and up and projected to be our greatest expense every year. You know, one thing I think about Richard is when our interest payments alone exceed our. Revenue somewhere down the road, is that when it's game over, or is that when we're on the way to game over? So can you talk to us about really, where the concern crops up with the deficit, like I talked about, and with the debt that's now at about $36 trillion   Richard Duncan  30:17   deficit and debt is a real problem. It was the first problem that I mentioned when we kicked off the conversation. There are two components of that. One is the fact that government debt has been increasing very rapidly. At the end of 2007 total government debt was around $9 trillion by 2014 it had doubled to $18 trillion because the government had to respond to the collapse of the private sector in 2008 and prevent us from having a great depression at that time, and then after 2014 it has doubled again, from 18 trillion to $36 trillion now, much of that was due to the need for the government to keep us from having another Great Depression during COVID When government stimulus amounted to about $5 trillion and the Fed created a similar amount over just a two year period. So now we have a much higher level of government debt. But the second component of that is that interest rates are very much higher than they used to be. The federal funds rate went up from 0% a few years back to a high of five and a quarter, actually a range between five and a quarter and five and a half. And recently, the Fed cut the federal funds rate by 50 basis points. But you can still say it is 4.9% let's call it 4.9% so interest rates are far higher than they used to be, but they don't have to remain high. The reason interest rates went up is because the Fed increased the federal funds rate. And the reason the Fed increased the federal funds rate is because we had high rates of inflation. Inflation peaked at 9% or so in 2022 but most recently, the CPI has come back down to 2.4% and the Fed's favorite measure of inflation, that PCE Price Index, has come down to 2.2% and that means that the federal funds rate, which is 4.9% is more than twice as high as the inflation rate is. That shows us that we have very tight monetary policy, and the Fed should be able to reduce interest rates very rapidly going forward. They've told us in their dot plot projections that they expect that interest rates will end this year the federal funds rate at 4.4% and then in next year, at 3.4% and 2026 at 2.9% so that reduction in interest rates will bring down the cost of the total interest expense that you mentioned as being so high currently, the risk, however, is that we get a rebound in inflation. We're inflation to surge again, then interest rates won't come down. In fact, they could go higher. So all of my career, more or less, has been spent in Asia. And the main theme that is run through the global economy, the development of the global economy over the last three and a half decades has been globalization, globalization in the form of us running very large trade deficits with other countries. Literally, the US current account deficit since the early 1980s has been $15 trillion meaning countries with the trade surpluses have had a $15 trillion trade surplus, and that's why they've all been transformed economically as a result of their trade surplus with the US, but what the US got out of this was the ability to buy things made with very low cost labor, and that was extremely disinflationary, that drove down the inflation rate in the US, and that allowed interest rates in the US to come down to very low levels that we've seen during most of this century, Up until the time COVID started. The real danger is now, if we do impose very high trade tariffs on China and our other trading partners, then that will cause a very serious spike in inflation. And it won't just be one off, because, of course, when the tariffs are put in place, that will immediately cause everything to be that much more expensive. The US companies importing goods from abroad would have to pay that tariff, then those US companies would pass those higher expenses on to the consumers, so we'd get an immediate spike in inflation. But that would also mean that the companies abroad it wouldn't be so profitable for them to have their manufacturing facilities abroad, they would try to bring those back home. And given that the unemployment rate in the US is so low already, only 4.1% there's not enough labor to allow these manufacturing facilities to come back to the US and start producing goods in the US. So that would cause an upward spiral. In wages and the wage push inflation spiral of the type that we had in the late 1960s and early 1970s so that is a In other words, tariffs would put an end to globalization, and that would cause a such a severe spike in inflation and interest rates, it would essentially be the death nail for creditism, which requires credit growth to survive. The end of globalization would mean this end of this 30 year global economic boom that the world has enjoyed, and therefore it is a very severe threat, and it would push up the interest expense of the US government, which you let off with, instead of lower interest rates, bringing down the interest expense the government has to pay every year, we would have instead higher interest rates, which would make the amount that the government has to pay on its interest even higher than it is at the moment, and make the budget deficit even larger than it is at the moment, and Make the government debt grow even faster than it's growing at the moment. So let's hope that doesn't happen. Instead, the better approach is to invest, to have the government finance large scale investments in new industries and technologies make the economy grow much more rapidly and we can grow our way out of this debt problem that we're currently in,   Keith Weinhold  36:21   yes more inflation, whether that comes from higher tarrifs or any other sources, will lead to higher interest rates to counteract that higher inflation, which will Yes, pump up the deficit in the debt that much more. And you know, one thing that I like about Richard is, you know, a lot of people complain about things, or say, what are we going to do? Or Things look bad, and Richard is saying some of that, but he offers a way forward with the US sovereign wealth fund, like he talked about before, investing our way out of it. So Richard, if we don't invest in this debt and deficit situation gets worse. It could be a hard question to answer, but I'd like your best guess at how far can we kick the can down the road? When is it game over? How big do our interest payments on the debt and deficit have to get?    Richard Duncan  37:10   the game is never over. No matter how bad things become, humanity will survive and carry on. So even in the Great Depression, people made it through, even through World War Two that resulted, largely as a result of the Great Depression. A lot of people died. 60 million people died, but the game didn't end. So regardless of how bad the economic system system were to become, humanity will survive and there will be a solution. Now, a lot of people put forward that, the idea that they point out that we have this high level of government debt, and their solution is to reduce government spending. The government spends something like $6.8 trillion last year. That was the amount the government spent. The budget deficit last year was 1.8 trillion so in order to eliminate the budget deficit, the government would have to spend $1.8 trillion less. In other words, it would have to cut its spending by 27% but the government cut its spending by 27% they're going to happen. The economy would immediately spiral into a depression. So even that reduction in spending wouldn't balance the budget, because the government revenues would collapse, and they would have even fewer tax revenues, so the deficit would still be there, the economy would collapse, and the unemployment rate would be 20 plus percent, and would just fall further behind China and be at greater risk from a national security perspective, and much more miserable As a society overall. That's why it's always say people should consider think of the words austerity and death at the same time, because austerity would bring about the collapse of our economic system and the Great Depression unless your civilization would survive it.  trying to answer your question more directly, how high could this go? Well, governments don't default on their debt when push comes to shove. If the government's having a hard time paying interest on its debt, the Fed will just print more money. And in a case where between 2008 and 2014 when the Fed created three and a half trillion dollars, they printed a lot of money at that short space of time, and they got away with it without having high rates of inflation. The highest rate of inflation we had during that period was 3.8% in 2011 and by the early months of 2015 we had deflation again for a few months. Prices actually fell negative CPI for a few months in 2015 so if we have a global economy, as we do at the moment, full of we have nearly 8 billion people, I would guess 2 billion of them at least live on less than $5 a day. So the US could get away with having a lot of paper money printing without having higher, very high rates of inflation and the government could finance itself that way for quite a long time. Of course, if we have a closed domestic economy brought about by extremely high tariff barriers, then we would end up with hyperinflation in the United States. But even with hyperinflation, it would be very painful for people who have all their cash in the bank or under their mattress, but people with assets, those asset prices would appreciate more or less in line with the inflation, and it would erode the government debt relative to the size of the economy, because the GDP would grow in nominal terms very rapidly because of the hyperinflation, and the debt, which is not inflation adjusted, would be evaporated away by the inflation.   Keith Weinhold  40:43    right? that's why here at GRE we are all invested and aimed toward prudent use of leverage with assets like real estate and we sure have been the beneficiaries of that wave of inflation that followed COVID there. Richard, well, we're talking about the debt and the deficit somewhat, which, interestingly, has actually doubled since the first time you were here on the show. When you were here, 10 years ago, it was at 18 trillion, and today it's at 36 trillion. We talked about, how far can you kick the can down the road back then? Well, here we are, 10 years later, and it's doubled. Talk to us. You know, you talked previously about the greatest risk to the United States economy. Tell us now, as we are investors here on this show, about the greatest risk to the real estate and stock market, I would just say within the next year. What are some of those risks to those particular markets?   Richard Duncan  41:38   We've already discussed the main risk that high tariffs would potentially cause a new spike of inflation and force the Fed to hike interest rates rather than cutting interest rates. But there are some other risk as well. One is the fact that we already have a very high level of wealth relative to income. Let me back up a second. You were talking about debt doubling since we first spoke 10 years ago. Here's another statistic for you. Just in the last four and a half years, the total wealth of the Americans, all of their assets minus all of their liabilities. In other words, household sector net worth. Since the end of 2019 it has increased by $47 trillion in four and a half years. That's about a 40% increase. Now, $47 trillion is enough to pay off the entire US government tip, which we've been worrying about with $11 trillion left over. So not everything is as bleak as it sounds on the surface. We've had a huge explosion of wealth in the last four and a half years that's been driven by property and also by stocks. The problem now is, is that the level of income the asset prices, are very inflated relative to their historic norms. And one of the ratios that I always keep an eye on is called the wealth to income ratio. It takes the household sector net worth. In other words, the wealth that we were just discussing, which, by the way, is now $164 trillion of wealth owned by the Americans. The wealth divided by income, disposable personal income, this wealth to income ratio is now an extraordinarily high level. The ratio is 785% whereas the average of that ratio going back to 1950 has been 550% the previous two peaks were in the year 2000 when it hit 620 during the NASDAQ bubble, and then that bubble popped, and the stock market crashed, and we had a recession, and it went back to 550 and then it surged to a new peak of 680 during the property bubble. And then that bubble popped, and we almost went into a depression, and that a lot of wealth was destroyed. We had a severe recession. The government had to bail us out from and that ratio went back to 550 again. Now it is just off the charts relative to its previous peaks, because people 680 now it's 785 so people used to suggest that higher asset prices were justified because interest rates were near 0% but even after the Fed hiked interest rates from near 0% to about 5% The asset prices have stayed inflated. That does suggest that asset prices are very inflated and therefore very vulnerable to any sort of shock that could occur, whether geopolitical or economic or domestic political problems. So that's a concern. Another concern is quantitative tightening is still occurring. Quantitative tightening is the opposite of quantitative easing. When, with quantitative easing, the Fed creates money and pumps it into the financial markets, and that tends to make asset prices go up, and it also tends to make interest rates on government debt stay low, because if it pushes up bond prices, it pushes down. Bond yields. Well, now the opposite is occurring. Over the last two years, the Fed has destroyed roughly $2 trillion it created $5 trillion from the end of 2019 till about 2022 during the COVID pandemic, and the policy response to that, the Fed created $5 trillion but now it's destroyed 2 trillion of that five that it created, and is still destroying dollars at the rate of about $60 billion a month, or $700 billion a year. And as it does, as it destroys dollars, it takes dollars out of the financial system, which all other things being the same, tends to make financial conditions tighter, putting upward pressure on bond yields and downward pressure on asset prices. So as this continues, this is a concern, because reduce the liquidity in the system by another $700 billion if it continues for another year, having said that there is still an enormous amount of excess liquidity in the system as a result of all of the money that the Fed has created, going back to 2008 I estimate that the excess liquidity is somewhere around three and a half trillion dollars. If you look at bank reserves and the reverse repos at the Fed is about three and a half trillion dollars of excess liquidity, and the Fed actually has to pay interest to the banks on their bank reserves to hold interest rates up. That's how the Fed controls the federal funds rate now. It pays the banks roughly right now, 4.8% interest on all of the banks bank reserves, and so the banks will not lend money to anyone at less than 4.8% interest, because the Fed will pay them 4.8% interest. Why would they lend to anyone else for less if it suddenly stopped paying interest on these bank reserves, these banks would look around and where would they invest their three and a half trillion dollars in? No one's going to pay them 4.8% or even 3.8% or 2.8% interest rates would plunge because of all the excess liquidity that exists. So this excess liquidity has been a thing that's been driving the economy since COVID started, and it's why we've managed to avoid recession, which everyone is expected to arrive any moment now for the last two and a half years. So there are concerns, but there are also, as always, other reasons for optimism.   Keith Weinhold  47:24   Well, that wealth to income ratio that Richard talked about, that's a calculation that you yourself can do. One's net worth is almost eight times their income now, which is at a historic high, which is one concerning point that Richard brought up. Well, Richard, I want you to tell us about your terrific video newsletter, macro watch unless you have any other last thoughts first.   Richard Duncan  47:51   well, just one last word on the US sovereign wealth fund. Thank you very much for giving me a chance to discuss that and to explain why both Democrats and Republicans are now in favor of establishing a US sovereign wealth fund, one of the few issues that has bipartisan support. And this must come as a surprise to many of your listeners and most Americans, in fact, why have both parties agreed on really setting up a US sovereign wealth fund? So I'm glad I've had a chance to explain it and why it's so urgently necessary. I'd just like to emphasize the extraordinary benefits that this delivers to the American people, both individually and at a national level, individually, in terms of medical breakthroughs and better health and much more rapid economic growth for the economy, so much more wealth and much more national security as well. So I hope the Americans will get on board with this idea and give it their full support, because it's exactly what our country needs to solve all the four issues, the major issues that I laid out at the beginning of this conversation. But with that said, if your listeners would like to learn more about my work, Macrowatch. Microwatch is a video newsletter.

Oh, Richard, it's been valuable as always, and you really offered a solution, a way forward here, something that's really refreshing. It's been great as always, having you back on the show.   Richard Duncan  50:18   Yeah. Thank you very much. I look forward to the next time   Keith Weinhold  50:21   me too. when it comes to the term capitalism, if that's truly a system that we're no longer in, you know, it seems to get replaced with the word meritocracy, and that is a word that I like, meritocracy, where producers get rewards for being productive, but even that is under attack, and the government just always seems to be stepping in with a safety net. Seemingly everywhere you look, it won't let banks fail. We saw them jump in early last year with Silicon Valley Bank and other bank failures, the government won't let homeowners fail either. I mean, you don't have to think back very far with mortgage loan forbearance in the COVID era, on issues of the debt and deficit. Even Fed Chair Jerome Powell himself has called it unsustainable. That's the word that he used. Like Richard said today, we won't default. We'll just print more. So when it comes to the inflation versus deflation tug of war, the future keeps looking inflationary, but at what rate of inflation? That's what I don't know, and no one really knows. If you like Richard Duncan's content, and you sort of wished he and I's conversation would go on. Well, he is a regular guest here, so I expect him back.
