‘Past the point of no return’: Ray Dalio has a warning for Americans holding this asset — are you ready?

Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warns Americans holding certain assets about an impending financial crisis. In a 3-minute read, he explains the debt supply and demand problem that could lead to higher bond yields and prices, currency debasement, and reduced real value of bonds. Dalio believes the U.S. government's debt needs are outpacing investor demand, with the government's 2026 deficit projected to be near $2 trillion and interest costs approaching $1 trillion annually.

He recommends allocating up to 15% of one's portfolio to gold and investing in real estate as potential solutions to protect against these anticipated economic challenges.
