The study is even more interesting given the recent stream of headlines as billionaire hedge fund manager after another faces redemptions. It was world's largest hedge fund manager, Ray Dalio, who declared from Davos on January 23rd that "a surge is ahead, and those who hold cash will look like fools". It turns out the "surge" was behind, and that was the top of the market. Subsequently, those who were on maximum margin got wiped off the map, along with the entire "low volatility" trade. <br /><br />Now, "Bond King" Jeff Gundlach is one of the last alpha males standing; his fixed income corner of the world is highly attuned to the fake reflation trade. I think we all see where I'm going with this. He sees higher inflation, higher yields, higher oil prices, and no sign of recession. <br /><br />He begins with this beautiful non-sequitur:<br />"Going back to 1972, commodities always go up a lot right ahead of recession. But of course then they tank immediately thereafter. Fortunately, there's no sign of recession now"<br /><br />Holy fuck. With logic like that who needs enemies?

We still don’t know how far away or close to this tipping point we might be. … This is uncharted territory.” — Stefan Rahmstorf [it's already in the rearview mirror . .]<br /><br />If such a tipping point event is breached — and there is increased risk for it as global temperatures enter a range of 1.5 to 2.5 C above 1880s averages during the 2020s through the 2040s — then we can expect far more profound weather and climate disruptions than those we have already experienced.
