The first modern financial crisis in the globalized world | DW Documentary
When the Asian financial crisis hit, it was something the world hadn‘t seen since the 1930s. For the first time since World War II, the global economy faced the very real threat of a complete collapse. Disturbingly, the sudden crisis came as a complete surprise.
In the late 1990s, the world economy seemed to be on a steady path of growth. This trajectory was driven primarily by the emerging economies of Southeast Asia, the global region with the strongest economic growth. Then, within a very short time, millions of people suddenly lost their livelihoods. Hunger, mass unemployment and uprisings returned to these previously prosperous countries. What was particularly disturbing to crisis managers at the time was that they had not anticipated the crisis, and were not prepared for it. Their h...

The financial crisis no one is fixing | Business Beyond

How it Happened - The 2008 Financial Crisis: Crash Course Economics #12
Today on Crash Course Economics, Adriene and Jacob talk about the 2008 financial crisis and the US Goverment's response to the troubles. So, all this starts with home mortgages, and the use of mortgages as an investment instrument. For years, it seemed like the US housing market would go up and up. Like a bubble or something. It turns out it was a bubble. But not the good kind. And the government response was...interesting. Anyway, why are you reading this? Watch the video!

A ‘Big Short’ investor sees financial disaster brewing in housing markets — again
A ‘Big Short’ investor fears an often-overlooked climate risk could see history repeating itself in the housing market.
Dave Burt, CEO of investment research firm DeltaTerra Capital, was one of the few skeptics who recognized the real estate sector was teetering on the brink of collapse in 2007.
He helped two of the protagonists of Michael Lewis’ bestselling book “The Big Short” bet against the mortgage market in the lead-up to the 2008 economic collapse. As it turned out, they were right and made millions.
Now, Burt believes the mortgage market is underestimating another systemic issue: flood risk. If realized, he warns the fallout could resemble the massive correction seen during the global financial crisis.
“Ultimately, until people have good information about what these climate-rel...

When the Asian financial crisis hit, it was something the world hadn‘t seen since the 1930s. For the first time since World War II, the global economy faced the very real threat of a complete collapse. Disturbingly, the sudden crisis came as a complete surprise.
In the late 1990s, the world economy seemed to be on a steady path of growth. This trajectory was driven primarily by the emerging economies of Southeast Asia, the global region with the strongest economic growth. Then, within a very short time, millions of people suddenly lost their livelihoods. Hunger, mass unemployment and uprisings returned to these previously prosperous countries. What was particularly disturbing to crisis managers at the time was that they had not anticipated the crisis, and were not prepared for it. Their hasty attempts to correct the problem did not bear fruit for a long time - in fact, in the short-term, these measures worsened the situation. How could this happen?
Ten years later, in 2008 and 2009, the global economy was once again on the brink of a complete collapse. What became known as the Global Financial Crisis demonstrated how much our world depends on the financial market. In this documentary, world-renowned experts question whether the toxic threat of collapse might perhaps be an inherent part of our economic system. To date, there is no satisfactory answer to this question. One conclusion that can be drawn: we are still living on an economic powder keg, today.

Check out this controversial episode with Balaji Srinivasan, who predicted Covid on Twitter and put $1M of his own money on the line just to get eyes and ears on what may be the worst financial crisis of our time. We delve into uncomfortable topics that are sure to spark a range of opinions and emotions.
So, what are we unpacking in this epic interview?
- Balaji's tweet, where he puts up $1M to raise awareness about the trillions of dollars being printed, with his bizarre bitcoin bet.
- The concerning state of the US economy and the need for alternative forms of money to hedge against a potential collapse.
- Historical cycles of empires that rise to power and eventually collapse, and being prepared for potentially catastrophic consequences.
- Balaji’s idea for the Network State that will blow your mind.
In this conversation, Balaji really exposes the increasing political polarization between Democrats and Republicans, both in Congress and on social media networks.
China's ascent as a global power and its implications is a huge concern and where this is potentially heading is why you must take this seriously. Join the conversation and share your thoughts on these fascinating and contentious issues!
What are your thoughts on the role of fiat currency and the military power of a nation in shaping its global standing and influence?
Check out Balaji’s book, The Network State: How to Start A New Country: https://www.amazon.com/Network-State-How-Start-Country-ebook/dp/B09VPKZR3G
Balaji Quotes:
“I do believe an enormous amount of money is going to be printed just like Ray Dalio, just like a number of other people do, and in such a case, you want to have outside money, whether that is gold, whether that is a foreign fiat currency that you have faith in.”
“The safest asset in the world became the riskiest asset in the world”
“This is sort of obvious, but you don't become number one by accident.”
“People will selectively excavate aspects of history and use them as a weapon”
“Printing money is in a sense like official counterfeiting.”
“The U.S. exports its inflation in part because it is the consumer of all these products around the world, and the dollar is its major export, and what is a small or tolerable rise in prices in the U.S. is intolerable abroad”
“You can't build America by hating China, you need to love America or love other Americans. It's not one country, it's two parties.”
“96% of Democrats are not married Republicans. So ideology becomes biology in one generation.”
“Good, is helping somebody else without concern for yourself. Smart is helping somebody else, but also helping oneself. Evil is harming somebody else while helping oneself, and stupid is harming somebody else while harming oneself.” (65)
“Typically the right thinks about things in terms of heroes and individuals and the left thinks of things in terms of institutions and ideologies.” (87)
“It's kind of hard to unify a gigantic swath of land without both left and right tactics, because on the right is economics and the military, but on the left is propaganda and ideology.”
“A lot of these people who believe the US can print money or that has an invincible military are literally people who think of the government as God, they don't think it has limits, They're secular, they don't believe in the supernatural. They also don't believe in encryption and they don't believe in other states. They are secular nationalists.”
“After Trump was deplatformed in early 2021 from Twitter, Trump wasn't even the most powerful man in his own country.”
“Bitcoin and Ethereum are bigger than most national currencies. Social networks are bigger in scale than most countries. Tech founders are wealthier than most politicians and so on, [...] there's already been a significant transfer of sovereignty.”

A ‘Big Short’ investor sees financial disaster brewing in housing markets — again

A ‘Big Short’ investor fears an often-overlooked climate risk could see history repeating itself in the housing market.
Dave Burt, CEO of investment research firm DeltaTerra Capital, was one of the few skeptics who recognized the real estate sector was teetering on the brink of collapse in 2007.
He helped two of the protagonists of Michael Lewis’ bestselling book “The Big Short” bet against the mortgage market in the lead-up to the 2008 economic collapse. As it turned out, they were right and made millions.
Now, Burt believes the mortgage market is underestimating another systemic issue: flood risk. If realized, he warns the fallout could resemble the massive correction seen during the global financial crisis.
“Ultimately, until people have good information about what these climate-related costs are going to look like, we’re creating new problems every day. I think that’s really the crux of the matter,” Burt told CNBC.
So, why does the U.S. housing market seem to be underestimating the cost of flooding? What does this mean for homeowners and homebuyers in the U.K. and around the world? And what can be done to mitigate this risk?
Watch the video above to find out.

Money, Power and Wall Street, Part One (full documentary) | FRONTLINE
In the 2012 award-winning series Money, Power and Wall Street, FRONTLINE tells the story of the struggles to repair the economy after the 2008 financial crisis,...
In the 2012 award-winning series Money, Power and Wall Street, FRONTLINE tells the story of the struggles to repair the economy after the 2008 financial crisis, exploring key decisions, missed opportunities, and the uneasy partnership between leaders of government and finance.
This journalism is made possible by viewers like you. Support your local PBS station here: http://www.pbs.org/donate.
In part one of Money, Power and Wall Street, FRONTLINE correspondent Martin Smith interviews leading bankers, government officials and journalists to chart the epic rise of a new financial order—and the trouble that followed. As Wall Street innovated, its revenues skyrocketed, and financial institutions of all stripes tied their fortunes to one another. Smith probes deeply into the story of the big banks—how they developed, how they profited, and how the model that produced unfathomable wealth planted the seeds of financial destruction.
FRONTLINE’s veteran financial and political producers Michael Kirk (The Choice 2020: Trump Vs. Biden, United States of Conspiracy), Martin Smith (The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, The Pension Gamble), Marcela Gaviria (The Virus: What Went Wrong?, Separated: Children at the Border) and Tom Jennings (Right to Fail, Opioids Inc.) team up to present this Emmy Award-winning documentary series.
