Comments on CNBC from the legendary investor

Druckenmiller
  • I'm not looking for the dollar to crash or anything
  • The FX market tends to move slowly
  • Covid is the most unique economic period I've ever lived through or studied
  • Deficit increased during covid more than last 5 recessions combined
  • The Fed mirrors similar extreme measures
  • Fed bought more Treasuries in six weeks than all of Bernanke/Yellen combined
  • The Fed has been monetizing the debt
  • All the money coming into the US into bonds and equities over last 10 years will be slowly seeping out
  • There's a high probability of inflation in 5-6 years, starting in about a year
  • I own a tiny bit of Bitcoin but I own a lot more gold
  • Likes Rio Tinto, BHP, Freeport-McMoran
  • Says pull-forward could hurt home reno stocks and things like Clorox
  • You can see the light at the end of the tunnel

Legendary investor Stanley Druckenmiller has been saying much of the same for awhile. It's a good interview though, if you can track it down, particularly the parts where he talks about foreigners slowly exiting Treasuries and US stocks to put pressure on the dollar.
