MB Fund Podcast: China’s Golden Depression Plods On

Advertisement

China says its economy is growing at 5.2%, but falling prices and sluggish demand tell a very different story. Some are now calling it a “golden depression”—recession hidden by stimulus.

In this week’s podcast, Nucleus Wealth’s Chief Investment Officer Damien Klassen and Chief Strategist, David Llewellyn-Smith, unpacked what’s really happening in China and what it means for investors.

Agenda:

  • Nominal economic growth crash
  • Endless property crash
  • Extend and pretend
  • Income growth slowing
  • Deflation everywhere
  • No pivot to consumption
  • No end in sight
