Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

It's not.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

I think that's an important point, but it has a very big if in the statement, which is if this remains at above 4% for the next several years.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

What I can tell you is most people do not think that that will happen.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

Most people on Wall Street do not think that would happen.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

If that did happen, it would be basically a gigantic disaster for the entire US economy, especially if we see that the wage growth continues to be lower than the price growth.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

So I take your point, but there are a lot of big ifs there.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

And so I guess my question that I would follow up with you is, do you believe that this is going to last?

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

You said years.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

I don't.

Prof G Markets

But if Trump had his way, we risk inflation go to 8 to 12 percent because he would vote to cut interest rate for a short term bump in his popularity, which could create inflation.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

a panic buying and an upward spiral of inflation.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

I mean, it's not unthinkable to think inflation could go to eight or 10%.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

Fuck, it's not, I mean, inflation starts, the fear, the real panic is that people start thinking, I gotta get rid of my cash because asset prices are going up so fast.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

So whenever people get cash in Argentina, they don't haul onto it.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

They either transition it to Bitcoin or they buy something.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

And to think that that can't happen here is to ignore what's happened with every fiat currency in history, that eventually the political pressure to print more money and not be fiscally responsible outweighs any.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

see about fiscal responsibility and end up with too much money chasing too few products.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

So will it likely happen?

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

No.

Prof G Markets
SpaceX IPO Takes Off β€” And Elon Is Now A Trillionaire

Could it?
