Ray Dalio vs Peter Zeihan on China's Economy

Both Ray Dalio and Peter Zeihan have a lot to say about the future of China. Both men are well-respected by certain segments of society. Both men know a lot about the topic. BUT... both men are in COMPLETE disagreement with what awaits the Chinese economy and China's place in the world. Ray Dalio, AKA 'The China Bull' has had a long-term friendship with China and the CCP's elite. He's the founder of on of the world's largest hedge funds, Bridgewater Associates. Dalio is a self-made BILLIONAIRE and is now the target of focus in a revealing new book titled 'The Fund: Ray Dalio, Bridgewater Associates, and the Unraveling of a Wall Street Legend'. Ray predicts in his book 'Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order' that the US is in rapid decline and that China will lead the new order for likely a century or more.

Peter Zeihan, on the other hand, is certainly not nearly as rich as Dalio, nor is he a hedge fund manager. Peter is a highly sought after geopolitical stategist as well as a well-known author. In his most recent book, 'The End of the World is Just the Beginning', Zeihan predicts that due to several challenges hitting China simultaneously that the Chinese system will not be able to continue and that China is likely to collapse within most of our lifetime.

In this video I take a deeper look at both men and their predictions and try to make sense of the gap in their ideas. After all, how can two men of such intelligence be so diametrically opposed on such an important topic?
