...investing in gold and avoiding U.S. stocks, just weeks before the S&P 500 experienced the greatest bull run in its entire history. Had I listened to this dogmatic asshat, I would have lost quite literally hundreds of thousands of dollars of growth. So glad I ignored this noise and just kept dollar-cost averaging into the stock market.

His spectacularly wrong predictions are from 5:26 to 6:22, LOL.




In this chart, notice how his gloom-and-doom prediction comically coincides with the beginning of the stock market boom and the end of gold's outperformance, JFL.

This is a classic investing lesson. Basically, the best time to invest in the stock market is when everyone is pessimistic about it, especially media pundits.

Red: S&P 500
Yellow: Gold

These days, I keep a small allocation to gold, in addition to stocks and crypto. But stocks are my core assets.
 
Most of the comments are from 2020 during the market crash. Which was nothing but a blip. Anyway I don't think he's wrong is timing was just way off. This is the problem with permabears. I am on myself tbh. But gold can't be viewed like how it was before: inversely correlated to the stock market.

USA is a complete outlier. I think it might be in a super bubble. A more high IQ bear is Jeremy Grantham. His also a bit retarded and timing way off. But what he says cannot be ignored. The US is almost guaranteed to face stagnation. Emerging markets outperformed the S&P 500 in the 2000s. I suspect we may see the same from the latter half of this decade.

Even if it was from 2020, the market went on a tear shortly after. I made a killing, selling my bonds and dumping the proceeds into stocks, while everyone else was running for the exists. But it wasn't from that year, since the video was uploaded in 2013.
