National Debt Masterclass Finale - What To Do

National Debt Masterclass Finale - What To Do

In part three of our national debt masterclass, we share a simple debt dynamics formula we can monitor to help guide our investment choices.

Topics covered include:

  • How much has the national debt grown over the past fifties years, and what are the underlying drivers
  • How the budget deficit, interest rates, and economic growth determine the level and growth in the national debt
  • Under what circumstances will the U.S. default on its debt
  • How should we invest to protect ourselves from the uncertainties of the national debt situation
