Will Gold Protect Your Wealth Better Than Bonds Over The Long Term?

Darius recently joined Gavekal’s David Hay to discuss the current Fourth Turning, #inflation, the relative attractiveness of Treasury Bonds and Gold, and much more.

If you missed the interview, here are the three most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. How Can Understanding Fourth Turning Economic And Policy Dynamics Help Investors Position Their Portfolios?

At 42 Macro, we conducted a deep-dive empirical study on Fourth Turnings to identify trends across economic, market, and policy indicators during these transformative periods.

Our research revealed that Fourth Turnings are consistently marked by explosive growth in sovereign deficits, rising debt levels, expanding government size, and soaring costs of financing deficits. These periods also see a sharp deterioration in sovereign fiscal balances—a trend already unfolding in the current Fourth Turning.

As investors, understanding how these indicators are likely to behave during Fourth Turnings is essential to properly positioning your portfolio and staying on the right side of market risk.

2. How Does Inflation Typically Behave In Fourth Turnings?

Our analysis of Fourth Turnings reveals that Democrats have historically emphasized government social benefits to supplement household incomes, while Republicans have prioritized lowering corporate tax rates. These opposing approaches have converged to fuel the accumulation of significant public debt.

We foresee the Federal Reserve is likely to be drawn into the equation, effectively forced to monetize rising public sector debt and deficits. 

We believe the explosive growth of public sector debt plus the Fed’s likely choice to monetize a considerable portion of that debt is likely to catalyze sustainably above-trend rates of inflation, aligning with our research that indicates inflation tends to accelerate sharply during Fourth Turnings.

3. How Can Investors Best Protect Their Wealth Against Explosive Growth In Sovereign Debt And Sustainably Above-Trend Inflation?

Our KISS Portfolio Construction Process is our systematic trend-following strategy designed for retail investors, with a core allocation of 60% Stocks, 30% Gold, and 10% Bitcoin. 

Recently, we pivoted from Treasury Bonds to Gold, which we believe is a better choice for investors in the context of the current Fourth Turning. Gold has consistently performed well across various Market Regimes, serving as a reliable hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty—particularly during Fourth Turnings, when sovereign debt and inflation tend to surge. 


Since our bullish pivot in November 2023, the QQQs have surged 40% and Bitcoin is up +174%.

Will Risk Assets Power Ahead Into And Through Year End?

Darius recently joined Paul Barron on the Paul Barron Network, where they discussed 42 Macro’s three bullish fundamental themes, the key economic cycles that lead asset markets, and more.

If you missed the interview, here are the two most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. When Should Investors Brace For A Significant Market Downturn?

We remain confident in the fundamental bull base for asset markets through early-Q2.

Our outlook is supported by three of our four core fundamental themes:

Combined, these three themes suggest increased liquidity, upside surprises in growth, and an accommodating Federal Reserve – all factors that indicate a favorable environment for risk assets over the medium term.

However, looking beyond Q2 2025, we anticipate asset markets are likely to face downside risks, such as a global refinancing air pocket. TBD on that.

2. What Implications Do Sidelined Cash And Growing Credit Stress Among Retail Consumers Have For Asset Markets?

Our empirical research shows that credit delinquencies and “cash on the sidelines” have limited significance in the current market context because they are lagging indicators. Historically, these factors shift after broader asset markets and the overall economy have moved.

In contrast, our deep-dive empirical study of business cycle dynamics has identified four key cycles that consistently lead asset markets:

These cycles are the primary drivers behind significant swings in asset markets. While real-time data on these factors is not always available, developing an informed perspective on their trajectories enables a more credible and forward-looking approach to anticipating market movements.


Since our bullish pivot in November 2023, the QQQs have surged 39%. Momentum $MTUM is up +51% and Bitcoin is up +184%.

Is The Fed On The Precipice Of Another Major Policy Mistake?

Darius recently hosted Unlimited Funds CEO Bob Elliot on this month’s 42 Macro Pro to Pro, where they unpacked the Fed’s asymmetrically dovish reaction function, the impact of the work-from-home phenomenon, their systematic approaches to investing, and more.

If you missed the interview, here are the three most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. What Is Driving the Fed’s Expansionary Monetary Policy?

We authored our “Resilient U.S. Economy” theme in September 2022, and since then, we have identified a new contributing pillar: the continuation of expansionary monetary policy. 

We believe this policy direction is puzzling, driven largely by the Fed’s belief that no further cooling in the labor market is needed to achieve 2% inflation—a stance we view as highly likely to be inaccurate. Nevertheless, it remains the Fed’s current perspective.

Bob Elliot offered an insightful take on this issue, suggesting that the Fed’s position likely stems from a fundamental disconnect between how academics interpret markets and models versus how practitioners do. This divergence may explain their controversial outlook on the labor market’s role in achieving their desired inflation target.

2. How Is The Work-From-Home Phenomenon Affecting Labor Market Dynamics?

At 42 Macro, we monitor various workforce dynamics metrics, including Nonfarm Productivity Growth and the Private Sector Quits Rate. Our analysis shows that Productivity Growth is currently above trend, while the Private-Sector Quits Rate has declined significantly from its elevated levels over the past couple of years.

We believe this shift toward longer employee tenures is likely a key driver behind the current above-trend rate of productivity growth, as longer retention generally leads to greater employee efficiency. This increased productivity is helping to offset some of the inflationary pressures stemming from higher wages and income growth, and we believe it is likely to persist.

Additionally, the rise of remote work plays a significant role in this dynamic. With the flexibility to live and work from virtually anywhere, employees are more likely to stay with their current employers, further contributing to lower turnover and increased productivity. 

3. Why Did We Replace Core Fixed-Income Exposure with Gold in Our KISS Portfolio?

One of the recent adjustments we made in our systematic KISS Portfolio Construction Process was to replace our core fixed-income exposure with gold. This decision reflects our understanding that if our Investing During A Fourth Turning Regime analysis proves true over the long term, it is highly unlikely that bonds will outperform other assets on a real, risk-adjusted basis.

While we recognize that no one—including us—is ever 100% correct on their fundamental views, even partial accuracy in our predictions suggests a strong likelihood that assets like gold, Bitcoin, stocks, and real estate will prove to be far better hedges against accelerated monetary debasement and financial repression than bonds. Indeed, we expect monetary debasement and financial repression to be tools that the Fed employs to address the challenges of excessive sovereign debt and a robust economy that leaves little incentive for buyers of government bonds.

Given this dynamic, we pivoted entirely out of core fixed-income exposure and allocated that portion of our systematic KISS Portfolio Construction Process to gold in October. Our 60/30/10 trend-following strategy now features maximum allocations of 60% stocks, 30% gold, and 10% Bitcoin.


Since our bullish pivot in November 2023, the QQQs have surged 37%. Momentum $MTUM is up +48% and Bitcoin is up +169%.

Will AI Replace Humans In Investing? 

Darius recently hosted QuAIL Technologies CEO Andrew Fischer on this month’s 42 Macro Pro to Pro, where they took a deep dive into AI’s future impact on the financial services industry.

If you missed the interview, here are the three most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. Will AI Replace Investment Professionals?

While many financial services professionals fear this, Andrew believes AI will not replace them. Instead, it will become a powerful tool every investor uses in some form.

Common applications of AI include accelerating workflows and increasing productivity by enhancing systems like report generation and client-stakeholder communication. AI’s ability to analyze vast amounts of data gives humans a competitive edge.

AI will not replace people; rather, people using AI will replace those that do not.

2. How Will AI Impact Investors’ Lives?

Andrew Fischer shared a compelling example from QuAIL Technologies, where AI is used daily to help investors manage the overwhelming volume of information they encounter. 

Each morning, QuAIL’s AI agents analyze around 5,000 articles—well before they have had their first cup of coffee.

Humans can not realistically process that many articles in such a short time nor retain or act on the insights while they are still relevant. But with AI, investment professionals can quickly access refined, relevant insights from thousands of sources. This means that by the start of their day, they already understand the latest fundamental and technical developments and their potential impact on their portfolios, giving them a strategic edge over other market participants.

3. How Can AI Enhance Repeatable Investment Processes?

One area where AI shows significant promise is in assisting the process of identifying Market Regimes. Andrew has explored concepts like geometric fractals and statistical self-similarity – research that suggests that the factors defining each regime can change over time. By incorporating AI, investors can track these shifts in explanatory variables, continuously adjusting the models used to capture these evolving patterns.

AI also helps investors ensure they are focused on the most predictive factors for identifying market regimes. With AI, a system can iterate and refine its understanding of market dynamics. 

Since alpha naturally decays over time, this continuous improvement and stress-testing of models is essential. AI can play a transformative role in streamlining such procedures, thus preserving and enhancing our and every investor’s investment approach. 


Since our bullish pivot in November 2023, the QQQ has surged nearly 30%.

How Will The Republican Sweep Impact Asset Markets Over The Long Term? 

Darius recently sat down with Macro Voices’ Erik Townsend, where they discussed the implications of the US election, how monetary policy dynamics are likely to change during the Fourth Turning, and more.

If you missed the interview, here are the two most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. How Will The US Debt-to-GDP Ratio Fare Under President-Elect Trump?

At 42 Macro, we have evaluated the proposals each candidate has put forward on the campaign trail through September 30th of this year. Our research indicates that Kamala Harris’s proposals would have accumulated approximately $3.5 trillion in additional U.S. sovereign debt over the 10-year projection period relative to the baseline. On the other hand, if we add up the various income and spending proposals from the Trump campaign, the increase is approximately $7.5 trillion.

Despite President Trump winning the election, our research indicated the US debt-to-GDP ratio would likely accelerate dramatically no matter who won the election or which party controls Congress.

Moreover, under current law, with the Trump tax cuts set to expire at the end of 2025, the debt-to-GDP ratio is projected to reach 125% in 10 years. With Harris’s proposals, the ratio would have been projected to increase to 133% over the same period. Trump’s proposals are likely to push it to 142%.

2. How Are Monetary Policy Dynamics Likely To Evolve In This Fourth Turning? 

In our deep-dive empirical study on the Fourth Turning, we explore how monetary policy dynamics have evolved in previous Fourth Turnings and how they are likely to evolve in this Fourth Turning.

In our deep dive, we found that the key monetary policy risks in a Fourth Turning include significant financial repression and monetary debasement:

Both of these dynamics are likely to lead to an acceleration in money supply growth, which we believe is likely to inflate the value of risk assets such as stocks, credit, crypto, commodities, and gold throughout the Fourth Turning. 

There will be some significant crashes in these assets to risk manage along the way when public sector debt growth vastly exceeds the amount of monetary debasement and financial repression available at the time, leading to a global refinancing air pocket. We anticipate the Fed will respond to future refinancing air pockets with more monetary debasement and more financial repression, leading to renewed bull markets from higher lows in the prices of risk assets. They don’t have a choice. 

Investors that maintain access to our KISS Portfolio Construction Process or Discretionary Risk Management Overlay aka “Dr. Mo” signals will sleep comfortably at night while participating in the high-stakes, Fed-sponsored bull market we anticipate will vastly exceed the wildest imaginations of investors. 


By now, you’ve likely realized that piecing together an investment strategy from finance podcasts, YouTube videos, and macro “gurus” on 𝕏 is not delivering the results you know you deserve. 

This kind of approach only leads to confusion from conflicting advice, frustration from mediocre returns, and exhaustion from the emotional rollercoaster of your portfolio swings.

Buying The Dip In A Risk On Market

Darius sat down with Schwab Network’s Nicole Petallides last week to discuss the current risk-on Market Regime and the outlook for asset markets.

If you missed the interview, here is the most important takeaway from the conversation that has significant implications for your portfolio: 

We Are In A Risk-On Market Regime And Believe Investors Should Consider Buying This Dip For Three Reasons:

  1. U.S. growth is likely to exceed consensus expectations over the medium term, alongside an improving global economy.
  2. The Federal Reserve maintains an asymmetrically dovish reaction function, which we believe will continue to support asset markets over the medium term. 
  3. U.S. and global liquidity are likely to accelerate markedly over the medium term. 

Despite our being in a risk-on Market Regime, our positioning model recently indicated a high risk of a correction in risk assets, and we believe the current decline in stocks is likely the beginning of that correction. 

We do not expect this correction to be severe, likely no more than 5-8% in $SPX price terms. The earliest we currently anticipate a sustained risk-off market regime commencing is Q2 of next year.

Financial Repression Survival Tactics

Darius recently sat down with Exploring Prosperity’s Robert Dewey, where they discussed the new wave of populism, the impacts of the U.S. regional banking crisis, the U.S. dollar, and more.

If you missed the interview, here are the three most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. Is There A Material Difference Between Either Presidential Candidate From A Fiscal Policy Perspective? 

Regardless of which candidate wins the upcoming election, we believe we are likely to see even more populism, or the promotion of policies that reflect the concerns of the people, regardless of the economic or institutional impact those policies have.

No matter what form this new wave of populism takes, it is likely to drive US public sector debt growth that forces the Fed to remain asymmetrically dovish.

Our view is that we are all frogs being slowly boiled alive in a pot of monetary debasement and financial repression, driven by Fourth Turning-style fiscal dominance. We have called for continued financial repression, which we have already experienced—and in our view, it is likely to accelerate throughout this Fourth Turning. 

2. How Has The Focus of Policymakers Shifted Since The U.S. Regional Banking Crisis? 

During the U.S. regional banking crisis in March 2023, the forward rate curve inverted and has remained persistently negative ever since. 

This deepening inversion signaled to investors that financial stability concerns had taken precedence—reflecting Fourth Turning-style financial repression, in which stabilizing sovereign debt markets is the central focus for policymakers.

The persistent inversion has profoundly impacted the Fed’s balance sheet and overall U.S. liquidity. As the Fed responded with dovish measures during the crisis, trillions of dollars flowed out of the reverse repo (RRP) facility and into financial markets. In our view, this liquidity flow remains ongoing and is likely to extend into Q1 2025.

3. How Will Global Reliance on The US Dollar Change Over The Next Decade?

Our research indicates the U.S. dollar currently plays a dominant role in the global financial system:

In our view, these numbers will decline over the long term as countries reduce their reliance on the dollar. We believe the continuation of aggressive populist fiscal policies in the U.S. poses significant risks for investors, with the most important risk being how the Federal Reserve responds to the global shift away from the dollar, as this transition will have profound implications for financial markets. We think the Fed will print money to monetize US deficits, filling the increasing void left behind by international investors and central banks.

To Survive The Fourth Turning, You Must Listen To The Market

Darius sat down with our friend Charles Payne on Fox Business last week to discuss the impact of the Fourth Turning on the economy and asset markets.

If you missed the interview, here is the most important takeaway from the conversation that has significant implications for your portfolio: 

During This Fourth Turning, Public Debt Growth Is Likely to Vastly Exceed Current Projections. The Only Institution With A Balance Sheet Large Enough to Finance This Is The Federal Reserve—And They Will.

That said, risk assets will NOT appreciate throughout the Fourth Turning in a straight line. There will be significant drawdowns to risk manage along the way – perhaps as painful as the Dot Com Bust, GFC, or COVID crash.  

Fortuitously, 42 Macro clients have access to our KISS Portfolio Construction Process and Discretionary Risk Management Overlay aka “Dr. Mo” to help them successfully navigate their portfolios throughout these increasingly trying geopolitical times.

Navigating Inflation, Budget Deficits, and Global Monetary Shifts

Darius recently hosted our friend Nadine Terman on 42 Macro’s Pro to Pro, where they discussed inflation, the federal budget deficit, China, and more.

If you missed the interview, here are the three most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. Are Both Political Parties Likely to Increase The Federal Budget Deficit? 

Even if Republicans win and Elon Musk advocates for severe spending cuts, we believe those cuts are unlikely to materialize. While there may be headlines about cutting spending, slashing large portions of the budget carries significant career risk.

Our research shows that the type of wasteful spending Musk might target accounts for less than 1% of federal expenditures. Meaningful cuts would require reductions in defense, Medicare, or Medicaid—areas deeply important to American voters.

Some minor budget trims may occur, but both parties appear committed to profligate spending, with no clear plan to meaningfully reduce the national debt.

2. How Has The Recent Shift In U.S. Monetary Policy Affected Chinese Policymakers?

At 42 Macro, we monitor the growth of the PBOC’s balance sheet relative to the share allocated to FX reserves. When the yuan appreciated sharply in early 2015, its real effective exchange rate (REER) rose significantly, disrupting China’s export model.

As the Yuan became expensive on a REER basis, export growth secularly slowed and foreign direct investment into China slowed, reducing the expansion of its manufacturing base. As a result, the share of FX reserves declined from approximately 83% to just 50% since March 2014.

However, the recent shift to a more neutral U.S. monetary policy, evidenced by the Fed’s decision to implement a 50-basis-point rate cut, suggests less risk of severe yuan devaluation. This change has signaled to Chinese policymakers that they can now begin accelerating monetary expansion.

Why Listening to The Market Beats Macro Predictions Every Time

Darius recently sat down with our friend Jason Shapiro from Crowded Market Report, where they discussed how to effectively use macro, the 42 Macro investment process, the outlook for China, and more.

If you missed the interview, here are the three most important takeaways from the conversation that have significant implications for your portfolio: 

1. What Is The Optimal Way to Incorporate Macro Into An Investment Strategy?

We would argue that many investors incorrectly incorporate macro into their investment strategy because they are not paying enough attention to what the market is signaling.

One of the most advanced tools we have developed for our clients is our Global Macro Matrix, which allows us to nowcast the current Market Regime and analyze what the market is signaling at any given moment. The tool also allows us to spot durable inflections in asset market momentum in real-time, thus providing 42 Macro clients the best chance to remain on the right side of market risk. 

This insight is crucial because the Market Regime dictates dispersion within and across asset classes, ultimately shaping the returns we all experience as investors. By following what the market tells us, we can help our clients align their portfolios with what the market is actually trying to price in, not with what they hope it prices in. Note the difference.

2. What Proven Quantitative Techniques Influence The 42 Macro Process? 

At 42 Macro, we stand on the shoulders of giants who came before us. Our research incorporates strategies that have stood the test of time on global Wall Street:

Our investment approach leverages these proven quantitative techniques, allowing us to deliver superior outcomes that meet our clients’ needs more effectively than alternative strategies.

3. What Is The Outlook For China?

We believe China is either in or sliding into a balance sheet recession, forcing Beijing to ease monetary and fiscal policy aggressively. Here are the three core factors behind this view:

While we remain cautious about China’s long-term outlook due to these structural issues, we do expect positive returns from Chinese assets in response to ongoing policy support. However, we do not recommend staying indefinitely long. 

Instead, we advise aligning your China exposure with our Discretionary Risk Management Overlay, aka “Dr. Mo,” which pivoted clients into a max position in China on September 17th. Since then, the FXI ETF—a proxy for Chinese stocks—has rallied about 24%, even factoring in the recent pullback. At some point, Dr. Mo will instruct 42 Macro clients to book gains in China. To date, it has not yet done so.
