Raoul Pal: Bitcoin, Emerging Markets, and the Death of Macro Investing

Jay is joined by founder/CEO of The Global Macro Investor and co-founder and CEO of Real Vision, Raoul Pal. Raoul is also the former Head of European Hedge Fund Sales at Goldman Sachs, and former Portfolio Manager, GLG Global Macro Fund. Raoul is one of the brightest minds in micro finance, and this conversation was a real treat. He provides an update on his unfolding thesis, which he says changed because the FED backstopped the credit markets. The two also discuss his portfolio, (at the time 98% of his liquid assets were invested into crypto currencies), asset allocation strategy, time horizons, and more. They get into the death of macro, emerging markets trade and gold, and the global debt jubilee; a speculative concept of which there is no way to predict its likelihood to occur.   This episode was recorded on January 8th 2021 for the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference #VRIC21.  To get more from Raoul, follow him on Twitter @RaoulGMI.  Join our investment community and sign up for our free weekly newsletter at cambridgehouse.com.
