Interesting Report..
American major investor Ray Dalio...The founder of the world largest investor business in the world.. Bridgewater Associates.. have said just days ago .very revealing things
that completely reinforce my points of how outdated is Putin economic model for RUssia.
and he told the signals they look ,when deciding which country to invest today..
Ray Dalio, the founder of the world’s largest hedge fund, Bridgewater Associates, has made a resounding argument for investing in China, even as a trade war between Beijing and Washington appears to be escalating.
In a video posted online on Tuesday, a day after Sino-US trade tensions spread to the currency markets, Mr Dalio said that there remained a historic opportunity to buy into a country that is opening up its markets to foreign investors over the long term.
“Would you not have wanted to invested with the Dutch in the Dutch empire, would you have not wanted to invested in the Industrial Revolution and the British empire, would you have not wanted to invest with the United States?” he said. “I think it’s comparable. Would you have not wanted to have invested in those places?”
The billionaire hedge fund manager has been a China bull for decades and has repeatedly pointed to growth opportunities there. Bridgewater opened its first office outside of Connecticut in Beijing in 2011 to be closer to clients there, although it was not until more recently that the Chinese market opened up to allow foreign investors to launch onshore funds. Bridgewater launched an onshore fund investing in Chinese securities last year.
The appearance of the half-hour video online on Tuesday pointedly invited investors to look past the latest round of trade tension, which had rocked equity and bond markets around the world since US President Donald Trump announced tariffs on $300bn more of Chinese goods and Beijing allowed its currency to weaken against the dollar. Monday was the worst day for US equities this year.
Bridgewater is also planning to add a new section to its website later this week that will be devoted to its research on China and commentary on investing there.
“Yeah, I believe China is a competitor of the United States or Chinese businesses are competitors of American businesses or other business around the world,” Mr Dalio said, “and that therefore you want to be, if you’re diversified, having bets on both horses in the race.”
He said the two countries are unlikely to go to “classic war”, but added: “I think there’s a restructuring of the world order, in terms of changes in supply chains, who’s making what technologies.”
about investing in China
In the video, Mr Dalio dismissed the idea that investing in China now is too risky and said it is on par with investing in several more developed markets.
about investing in Europe .....
“I think Europe is very risky when monetary policy is almost out of gas and we have the political fragmentation and they’re not participating in the technology revolution ,” he said.
about investing in US
“I think the United States is very risky in its own ways, having to do with the combination of the wealth gap, the political system, the conflict between socialism and capitalism that will be part of our election, the fragmented decision-making, so many different things and the absence of the effectiveness of monetary policy.”

So the founder of the world biggest investment business clearly there considers
TECHNOLOGY REVOLUTION , as their most important aspect today ,when deciding where to Invest ,and also Political stability too.. He told Europe is fragmented and participating in Technology revolution.. and US risky for too much divisions between Poor and Rich. he don't even bother to mention Russia ,because
the moron in chief Putin , is busy with distractions like Olympics and praising Russia records selling bananas and coconuts to the world.
People that try to point me ,how much Sochi is doing for Russia economy , don't understand at all , that is totally irrelevant .. how well or not Russia does in Tourism.. or in Sports.. Because there is a war already going on , against Russia ,to completely destroy and isolate Russia economy from the world.. And because US *IS* at war ..against Russia.. an economic war.. Putin can't develop Russia ignoring the danger that exist on their nation .
So he needs to FIGHT back United States.. and breaking records in tourism , or in selling Bananas.. or records in attendance in Footbal.. in no way counters the US empire..
So this is why Putin , needs to develop Russia , completely
different way.. to counter American Business.. Why? to break the American economy and collapse their empire.. thats why.. But even their economy is not necessary to destroy..
because that will damage all world economy too ... What Russia needs to do , is to Take away US technology Business leadership.. Because once that happens.. all other nations will have no reason at all , to do business with America.. if Russia could replace them.. then US will lose the tool they used to blackmail other nations.. their advanced high tech business and Entertainment industry.. So if Russia moves its economy ,towards a technology revolution ,that includes ,digital entertainment and space leadership.. Then it will take away US leadership role in the world.. Not even the internet will be in their control . and so it will be a coup ,on US developed business.. This will give every nation in the world an Alternative
to AMerican business.. since every nation can farm bananas and food..and wheat even third world countries.. but not every nation can compete with American high tech civilian business.. or US space program. And why civilians business are the most important for Russia to lead? To Influence the new generation Society,that will be leading their own nations..away from the American system.. Russia modernizing its economy.. will create a completely new culture ,that for the first time ,will influence not only Europe ,but also Americans too.. and this will make it impossible for washington DC to do sanctions on Russia business... because it will be similar as a nation today banning Internet and banning computers.. and banning television and entertainment ,that is mostly American , it will not go very far. .a government ,that takes away.. from society all the things they enjoy.. that influence them.
China is fighting the US empire.. but Putin's Russia is doing almost NOTHING..
except their plans to go to the moon and mars.. but it will be totally irrelevant if Russia
don't Lead the new space race.. there is no honorable place for a second best. US and Russia are in a fight for Influence. and Putin is losing in a miserable way. China at least is fighting American influence ,by countering Apple..
So once more.. Is not a fight for who makes more Money . Because a nation with obsolete
culture like rich monarch in middle east will attract no one.. Is not about quantity , but about the quality of an economy.. Is far better to Lead in High tech and space.. than to lead in potatoes farming.. even if the later produce more money.. This is True because the goal is to dethrone the American Empire , to end their influence ,and offer real alternative
to US business. .. So Russia only chance to avoid a world war 3.. is with Business leadership.. TOurism and sports.., that doesn't challenge in any way
the American influence and leadership in the world ,neither damage their economy.
Putin needs to completely reverse his economic policies.. Privatise the energy industry ,to nations they have good relations.. privatize sports , and agriculture ,and invest heavily
in an education and promote a technology revolution , aimed at countering American most influential modern business.. that is Silicon valley companies and US entertainment industry. Once they US business ,no longer leads.. it will be the end of NATO and the American empire.. nations will jump the ship.. and move towards Russian orbit..
Russia don't need to target Apple.. since China already defeated them there.. but there is a lot more Big tech giants ,that Russia could target.. like the Internet , like Intel ,like Microsoft.. like US entertainment industry. the later will make Russian language popular..
this is Influence and leadership in action.. but Putin is completely closed to any changes
, i don't think Russia have a chance with him in power.
So in summary..
-Is not a better economy.. what will save Russia.
-Is Not more medals in Olympics what will save Russia.
-Is not more more tourism.. what will really help Russia to counter US..
-Is not even selling more machinery , more trucks.more stealth planes, more nuclear reactors.more gold, more tanks , is not even selling
more weapons , or building better parks.. or roads.. those things improve quality of life inside.. but don't target Russia enemies..
-Is not even need to break US economy.. that will damage global economy.
Is all about Ending the American Empire influence in the world.. What allows US to influence the entire world.. And American internet ,American high tech business ,and Entertainment industry and Space exploration leadership. Their image of
being Leaders in world development.. this IS what Russia needs to counter. and defeat.
and offer a real alternative to all those highly influential business that the west have. and society likes.
I have seen videos in Russia ,where people make contest.. and girls undress completely
and are naked in public.. all for a stupid latest model of Iphone.. US influence the world
with their high tech business.. and entertainment.. and this is where Russia economy needs to focus.. but if he is so afraid to compete.. the least Putin can do ,is take very seriously
Russia space program..and invest heavily there , not just to compete.. but to c ompletely
defeat US in space and in future manned planets explorations.
