Paul Tudor Jones just lit up the financial scene again, and it’s a big deal for Bitcoiners. The billionaire hedge fund boss, who’s always had his eye on macro trends, dropped another bombshell about inflation. He’s got the U.S. economy and its $35.77 trillion national debt on his mind, but he’s already making moves to hedge.
Jones didn’t hold back on Tuesday when he went on CNBC. “I think all roads lead to inflation,” he told the world. He’s been long on gold and Bitcoin because, in his view, commodities are grossly underowned. Not everyone’s looking at this corner of the market, but Jones sees it as prime real estate for hedging against what he calls inevitable inflation.
Commodities Underowned, Nasdaq Overhyped?
For Jones, the story is simple: the U.S. is drowning in debt, so inflation is coming for everyone. That’s the only way a government can erase its debt, by inflating it away. Jones said it straight, “That’s historically the way every civilization has got out: they’ve inflated away their debts.”
He’s worried about the younger generation, though, because many of them are still cozying up to the Nasdaq. Sure, it’s been performing, but Jones doesn’t see it as the ultimate hedge. So while some are betting on tech stocks, he’s piling into real assets. Long gold. Long Bitcoin. Long commodities. His view? Commodities are underexposed, and it’s time to take notice.
Bitcoin: A Safe Bet, Even in Stormy Markets?
Jones has been talking Bitcoin for years, but now he’s making it clear it’s part of his game plan for stormy markets. In uncertain times, Bitcoin becomes his go-to. It’s not gold, but Jones doesn’t care, because he sees Bitcoin as more than just a digital asset. “It’s reliable, consistent, honest,” he said before.
But, even though Bitcoiners love to echo his sentiment, the wider market hasn’t fully come around. Some experts still argue gold has history, but Jones? He’s holding his line.
