"A Crisis is Always a Political Opportunity to be Taken Full Advantage of!"
Former White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel
THE GREAT RESET
The Great Reset was an expected response to the developments we have been writing about for some time:
• Thesis 2019: A New World Order - A Unipolar to Multi-Polar Shift.
• A coming economic Stability Test which we warned in the fall of 2019 (See Addendum I: Trapped: The Ensuing Market Road Map)
• What is coming: See Addendum II
"STATE CONTROLLED" CHINA
• China is in the midst of a debt bubble and the beginning of widening wealth gap.
• Apparently, China wants to tackle both before it’s too late.
"FREE MARKET" US
• the U.S. has passed the peak of its economic power, settling into the stage of money printing after the initial 2008 cracking of the debt bubble facade.
"It (the US) is in this stage when there are bad financial conditions and intensifying conflict. Classically this stage comes after periods of great excesses in spending and debt and the widening of wealth and political gaps and before there are revolutions and civil wars. United States is at a tipping point in which it could go from manageable internal tension to revolution and/or civil war."
"We doubt that the pervasive cancel cultures that permeates US society today, or the ubiquitous central planning by the Federal Reserve coupled with manipulated central markets to promote a socialist agenda and to allocated capital and talent as the government sees fit, in the process bypassing capitalism, will allow US society to every again claim to be fair or merit-based."
Ray Dalio: "The Archetypical Cycle of Internal Order and Disorder"
Finally, we will decidedly end our notes with our reaffirmation of the growing need for alternative strategies. We would like to think that our alternative view on markets is consistent with our preference for alternative risk and alpha driven strategies. Alternatives offer the investor a unique opportunity at non correlated returns and overall risk diversification. We believe combining traditional strategies with an alternative solution gives an investor a well-rounded approach to managing their long term portfolio. With the growing concentration of risk involved in passive index funds, with newly created artificial intelligence led investing and overall market illiquidity in times of market stress, alternatives can offset some of these risks.
It is our goal to keep you abreast of all the growing market risks as well as keep you aligned with potential alternative strategies to combat such risks. We hope you stay the course with us, ask more questions and become accustomed to looking at the markets from the same scope we do. Feel free to point out any inconsistencies, any questions that relate to the topics we talk about or even suggest certain markets that you may want more color upon.
Capital Trading Group, LLLP ("CTG") is an investment firm that believes safety and trust are the two most sought after attributes among investors and money managers alike. For over 30 years we have built our business and reputation in efforts to mitigate risk through diversification. We forge long-term relationships with both investors and money managers otherwise known as Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs).
We are a firm with an important distinction: It is our belief that building strong relationships require more than offering a well-rounded set of investment vehicles; a first-hand understanding of the instruments and the organization behind those instruments is needed as well.
