AVGreat call on the Presidential Electional, so far out. Please bring her back soon, incredible insight.
-
AHI found this so interesting
-
CBExcellent!! I especially liked the comments about social and political volatility. I gave me a whole new appreciation of what is happening in the world.
-
CTAfter Pippa's talk, I understand the bizarre policy actions of the USgov. It's just a balance of political pain and economic pain. No long term plan. No plan at all!
-
LVExcellent narrative and logical consequences from the mad situation we´re in. But there is some elasticity in the concepts used re social contract. Can it be called contract if enforced unilaterally?
-
GLPippa's comment about hyperinflation not being a concern stood out. I am in the camp that loss of confidence in the USD may lead to that but it was dismissed. All in all great interview
-
JHI would love to know the robotics play she is involved with. we need productivity growth! I think she is sanguine because she has seen this movie before. read "the dying of money."
-
JDExtraordinary breadth of insight.
-
EDThis a extraordinary conversation. It would be great to have her on periodically to comment on recent events. Well done!
-
KT"You could tax 100% of people 100% and still have a hole"..."Partisan gridlock guarantees inflation will be the method of default" - 20 yrs from now many will ask how they didn't see it coming...
-
SVSupressed volatility in financial markets morphing into real world volatility aka social unrest. That concept alone is worth the price of 1 year subscription. Thank you RV and Pippa.
-
AEDouble WOW!! I was mesmerized...Thank you, Grant for asking the questions I wanted to hear the answers to. Scary stuff, indeed yet fascinating all at the same time! This is why I subscribe...
-
GRI like her but she stopped short of stating the obvious. The only way a new social contract can be achieved without bloodshed is by reducing the size of the recipients of tax money including the UN
-
ALShe thinks the US has no choice but to inflate away its massive debt. But then she says there won't be hyperinflation and inflation will be around 2-3% max... But you can't have both!!
-
spthere are enough USDs to cause hyperinflation in the US. They exist outside US and if the confidence in the system is lost, they will return. its just a confidence game
-
spshe recognizes that vol is seeping into the political sphere and yet she seems so sanguine. fact is always stranger than fiction. tighten your seat belts and hang on to your hats
-
PLWalmart just had a horrible earnings miss and she thinks they need to raise wages?
-
PLBi-partisanship is way over rated. Just shackles us with more laws.
-
PLWithout Ross Perot there would have been no Bill Clinton
-
SLDr. Malmgren's ability to add a historical perspective to today's political/financial environment is incredibly useful. I'll definitely be reading her book. Grant is a brilliant interviewer!
-
IKGoogle search results say the bazooka has been fired. Anyone know what the bazooka really is? OK... back to listening.
-
RAWow....."you can't be the Social Glue AND the Hammer". Never mind Buffet's 6 figure lunches, how much to attend one of Pippa's Sunday luncheons?
-
RAOnly RV could have allowed us into "Pippa's Parlour" where we could hear her finish her thoughts without constant annoying interrupt. Thanks again RV.
-
CCPipps's grasp of the interconnection of markets, politics and society and her ability to explain it are phenomenal. Clearly one of the best interviews so far. Thanks.
-
SBVolatility cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one area of human enterprise into another. Pippa's law of conservation of volatility.
-
JSPippa was outstanding. A fine job by Grant conducting the interview. Keep up the good work.
-
DR"Suppressing volatility in the financial indices pushes volatility into real markets and politics" - what an insight! One of so many. Kudos Grant for an excellent interview.
-
DFPippa is a smart lady who somehow makes really depressing stuff seem like fun. Good interview Grant, you guys covered a lot of ground.
-
GWBill, the book to which I was referring was Tim Geithner's book, Stress Test: Reflections on Financial Crises. It's not a great read but there are some interesting bits in there...
-
BBYes, do it again sometime. Also, what was the euro crisis book that Garat mentioned.
-
jeExcellent interview. Can we bring her back long enough to ask her how she is/would be invested. She is outstanding.
-
AHWho would down vote that interview???
-
CHShe's good. Long form suits her ideas
-
dbPippa is the female version of Jim Rickards. It seems like the elephant in the room is a deep captured SEC and Washington by the banks and the Fed. No mention of that or really anything else. #Insider
-
PTPart 3 -- Please, please!
-
PRBrilliant, far reaching conversation about many issues which never seem to be discussed in the usual financial media. Pippa has tremendous insights into how all this stuff fits together. Thanks.
-
WMWhat a brilliant, well-informed, articulate, attractive, charming woman! Pippa for President!

bpThe 'social contract' is not a contract, a contract is not based on the initiation of force.
