Friend of\u00a0Fringe Finance\u00a0<\/em>Lawrence Lepard released his most recent investor letter a few days ago with his updated take on the seismic changes occurring in monetary policy globally as a result of the Russia\/Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n

He takes us through history as to how this landscape has changed in the past, and what could be coming in years ahead.<\/p>\n

Larry had joined me for\u00a0several interviews last year<\/a>\u00a0and I believe him to truly be one of the muted voices that the investing community would be better off for considering. He\u2019s the type of voice that gets little coverage in the mainstream media, which, in my opinion, makes him someone worth listening to twice as closely.<\/p>\n

In the chart below, you can see the effect that Paul Volcker\u2019s policies had on the dollar price of gold. By\u00a0pushing interest rates up to 20%, he managed to cool inflation and ultimately stop it. This brought the gold\u00a0price back to the $260 to $400 range where it lived for quite some time.<\/p>\n

The 1980\u2019s and 1990s were marked by a period of dis-inflation and ultimately deflation given technological innovations and productivity gains from Microsoft, Intel and the like in the 1980s, and then the Internet in the 1990s…<\/p>\n
