In textbooks, we are taught that the flow of capital will move from one country to another. When stocks rise, the USD usually falls... But what about the current reality?

- Other currencies are depreciating against the USD.

- However, the USD has sharply declined against gold.

- Stocks and bond prices are also in a declining state.

So, what will we do to protect our assets in this context?

🖍️GLOBAL CONTEXT

Since the 2008 financial crisis, governments and central banks have used monetary easing policies: pumping money, increasing liquidity, and lowering interest rates. They continuously repeat this whenever the market faces difficulties. But when too much money is printed, the value of the currency diminishes, prices soar uncontrollably, asset prices skyrocket, while the purchasing power of workers severely declines.

What is concerning is that people still place their trust in the monetary system, anchoring their assets in fiat currency and depositing them in banks, hoping to have enough savings when they retire. But let’s recall real stories about saving for the 'long term.' 30 years ago, someone sold a piece of land to deposit in a bank, hoping to have retirement money. However, 30 years later, that amount is only enough for a few months of expenses. With the rapid pace of money printing in the 21st century, perhaps this 30-year period will be shortened even more.

Statistics show that the USD has lost 94% of its value in nearly 100 years. But at the current rate of money printing, in just 20 more years, the USD could lose an additional 90% of its value.

In each crisis/recession, we often hear the media say that capitalists and central banks like the Fed are 'saving' the world. But in reality, who is being saved? After each recession, do capitalists become richer because they can buy assets at low prices? And the consequences like inflation, rising asset prices, increased commodity prices, and rising public debt... who bears the burden? Surely it is the workers.

In this context, the author of the famous book 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad,' Robert Kiyosaki, who always goes against traditional financial thinking, has advised to escape from the paper money system and invest in tangible assets. Things that cannot be printed from a machine: gold, silver, real estate, and especially Bitcoin. These three names represent three layers of defense in an era where financial risks are more unpredictable than ever.

✔️WHY GOLD AND BTC?

- If money is just a piece of paper that central banks and governments can print at will, then over time, do you think it will increase or decrease in value?

- In countries with strong geopolitical stability, a young population, and stable growth rates, real estate always tends to grow. Because real estate is something that cannot be printed more. You cannot buy one house and then photocopy it to get another one.

- However, gold and Bitcoin stand out even more. Besides not being subject to inflation, these two assets are held by large institutions, and their supply is not controlled by anyone and can cross borders without obstacles.

Recent moves by central banks in countries like China, Russia, the US, and the EU indicate this outlook. They are actively accumulating gold and devaluing their currencies; capitalists like Warren Buffett have also started to sell off stocks since last year, indicating that a period of chaos is about to occur.

✅TARIFFS ARE A STIMULUS DRUG

Tariffs, in some ways, are seen as a war - that’s Warren Buffett's assessment in a recent interview. He has implicitly confirmed that a global war is about to break out and the consequences will be extremely severe.

Perhaps people will pay less attention to the following important points:

1. On June 30, the US will have to pay interest on a debt of over 6 trillion USD, while the treasury has only a few hundred billion left. In the past, the US could easily borrow through bond sales. But now, even countries that used to buy a lot like Japan, South Korea, or China no longer want to buy, and China has even been selling US bonds in large quantities recently.

2. Trump has delayed tariffs for 90 days. However, even if the tax rate is reduced from 30% to 60% compared to previous announcements, this is still a big issue for global supply chains. Major organizations have raised their recession forecast from 15% to 60% by 2025.

3. Bitcoin often moves in the same direction as gold. Recently, when the USD Index (DXY) and US stocks both fell, bond prices dropped, gold increased by 30% since the beginning of the year. Bitcoin also followed a slight upward trend. This proves that Bitcoin is increasingly breaking free from the label of 'risk' like stocks and returning to its true value as a 'store of value.'
