She was one of Ray Dalio's favorites. The Fund: Ray Dalio, Bridgewater Associates, and the Unraveling of a Wall Street Legend by Rob Copeland. Excerpted from THE FUND: Ray Dalio, Bridgewater Associates, and the Unraveling of a Wall Street Legend by Rob Copeland. A spokesperson for Ray Dalio told Insider, "This book is just another one of those classic tabloid books, authored by someone who applied for a job at Bridgewater and was rejected more than a decade ago. He then became an investigative reporter at a prominent newspaper and made a career of writing distorted stories about Bridgewater and Ray Dalio, at first in articles and now in this book.

The risk of a world war that includes the US and China has risen to 50%, the elite investor says. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe Israel-Hamas clash threatens to spark other bloody battles, meaning it's now a coin toss whether a world war breaks out that includes the US and China, Ray Dalio has warned. "If they spread to other countries, most importantly the major countries, there will be a much more horrific hot world war," he said. "It seems to me that the Israel-Hamas war is another classic, unfortunate step toward a more violent and encompassing international war." Dalio said his "pipe dream" would be for everyone to recognize the horror of a world war and come together to avoid one.

The ousting of Republican Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker may not have an immediate impact on Wall Street, but it raises the likelihood of a government shutdown in the fourth quarter — which could inject more volatility into an already rattled market. Now, Congress also grapples with deciding its next speaker to lead the House. "The immediate market impact of McCarthy's ouster is relatively limited as the government is funded through November 17," said BTIG's Isaac Boltansky. "The near-term concern is that the House's paralysis will further complicate the already complicated calculus surrounding the forthcoming funding fight." Impact on the defense sector The removal of McCarthy could have an impact on the defense sector.

Ray Dalio says he's not plotting a comeback to Bridgewater, the fund he founded in 1975. Speaking at a Greenwich conference Tuesday, Dalio denied a New York Times report saying he might return. He said he will focus on running his family office and mentoring Bridgewater's leadership team. Dalio is building out his family office with a new office in Abu Dhabi and hiring in its other hubs in the US and Singapore, according to Bloomberg. The world's largest hedge fund is now being run by Nir Bar Dea, who has already shaken up the firm with a restructure and layoffs.

Making mistakes doesn't feel great, but they can provide some lessons you might not have learned otherwise. We asked this year's rising stars of Wall Street to open up about the biggest missteps of their careers so far and what they took away from them. Some shared their rookie errors — like slamming their laptop shut after forgetting to save their first big pitch deck or duplicating a trade — while others gave more reflective answers about how early career mistakes impacted their paths. We've got to iterate and change how we do things, and I think that's helped our team's process a lot. So my mistakes also brought me here, and everything that has been a mistake is always a learning experience.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 28 (Reuters) - Ray Dalio believes the United States is going to have a debt crisis and is closely watching the "risky" fiscal situation, CNBC reported on Thursday, citing an interview with the billionaire investor. The country's debt has been under the spotlight in recent months after political brinkmanship around the debt limit earlier this year brought the U.S. close to a default. Though the situation was averted, such partisan conflicts could hurt the country's fiscal reputation, analysts have said. Earlier this week, Fitch's peer Moody's said a government shutdown would harm the country's credit in a stern warning.

Get the inside scoop on today’s biggest stories in business, from Wall Street to Silicon Valley — delivered daily. Indeed, the Fed may realize that inflation isn't fading, and markets are pricing in rate cuts that it's uncomfortable making, Karniol-Tambour said.

Dalio says China is overdue in reducing its debt

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsAug 17 (Reuters) - Legendary investor Ray Dalio, a big enthusiast and investor in China, said on Thursday the world's second largest economy is overdue in conducting a "big debt restructuring." Dalio said deleveraging is never an easy task, but in the case of China it can be more manageable because most of its debt is in domestic currency and is held by its citizens. Very popular among Chinese investors, Dalio is a self-proclaimed Sinophile with long connections with China. Last year, Bridgewater doubled its fund assets in China to more than 20 billion yuan ($2.74 billion), cementing its position as the biggest foreign hedge fund in the country. The hedge fund launched its first onshore China fund in 2018 and, since then, two other funds have been established.

A continued rally in stocks forced many hedge funds to unwind their bets against equities last month. US BOND MARKET LIQUIDITYBridgewater actively bets on the direction of various types of securities — including stocks, bonds, commodities and currencies — by predicting macroeconomic trends. He said that liquidity in the U.S. government bond market was getting worse, as the Treasury increases bond issuance. Bridgewater's Pure Alpha 12% volatility fund gained 2.5% in the year through Aug. 11, a third source familiar with the matter said, while the Defensive Alpha fund, less dependent on equities, rose 2.1%. Since it was launched in 1991, Pure Alpha 12% has generated 7.7% net total returns annually, according to the same source.

REUTERS/Brendan... Read moreSAO PAULO, May 15 (Reuters) - Bridgewater Associates, one of the world's largest hedge funds, sold off U.S. bank stocks in the first quarter as the industry was roiled by the collapse of three lenders, according to regulatory filings. Global hedge funds cut their exposure to U.S. banking stocks to a near 10-year low in March and fled lending-sensitive shares amid turmoil in the industry following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. The firm also slashed its positions in smaller banks such as Bank of Hawaii Corp (BOH.N), Pacwest Bancorp (PACW.O), PNC Financial Services Group (PNC.N), Citizens Financial Group (CFG.N) and Capital One Financial Corp (COF.N). Bridgewater was also bearish on European banks in March, after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank sparked contagion fears across global banks, a Reuters report showed. Following SVB, Signature Bank was also placed into receivership in March, while JPMorgan bought First Republic Bank's assets earlier this month.

On tap, we've got stories on the top VCs in Texas, more headaches for Blackstone's BREIT, and why boomers stink. Maybe it's just the fear of facing your own mortality and realizing that life, in fact, will go on without you. As Rebecca Ungarino reports, the world's largest hedge fund is making a slew of new changes less than six months after billionaire founder Ray Dalio stepped aside. Bridgewater, which was founded in 1975 from Dalio's two-bedroom apartment, is arguably just as well known for its culture as its size.

The firm's CEO, Nir Bar Dea, said in a memo that it would lay off employees and restructure. Bar Dea had been a rising star at Bridgewater, which has transitioned leadership in recent years.

"Over time, we expect this platform to produce the next round of growth in the business," Bar Dea wrote. 'Finding a home'As far as high finance executives go, Bar Dea has an unexpected background.
