 .... wagering more than $5.7 billion against them in a bid to profit from a potential decline in value.

Ray Dalio’s Bridgewater Associates is pretty bearish on the global economy, and has already positioned itself for a sell-off in US Treasuries, US equities and corporate bonds on both sides of the Atlantic.

Now, having been relatively quiet over the past two years in European equity shorts, the $151bn-in-assets firm has popped up with 18 new disclosed short positions in European stocks

I /John Mauldin/ agree with Ray Dalio that we are almost certainly going to monetize it.

I highly suggest that you read his latest piece titled “The World Has Gone Mad and the System Is Broken.” It is the shortest and best summary of his views that he has put out in a long time.
