US hard-asset outlook amid debt, inflation, and geopolitics

Overview

Financier Kevin O'Leary, author Robert Kiyosaki, and Bridgewater founder Ray Dalio have consistently linked rising U.S. debt, inflation, and geopolitical shifts to a growing demand for hard assets. Throughout 2026, Kiyosaki has warned of a major economic crash, urging shifts into gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum to hedge against a “Everything Bubble” and the erosion of fiat currencies. He has maintained high price targets, including $35,000 for gold and $200 for silver, while cautioning that assets relying on institutional trust, such as 401(k)s and U.S. bonds, are vulnerable to a systemic collapse.

Ray Dalio has emphasized a shifting global order, noting that the U.S. is losing credibility as China accumulates influence. He has advised diversifying into gold to hedge against currency volatility and noted that many nations are moving toward a multipolar system. While Dalio remains skeptical of Bitcoin as a safe-haven asset due to its correlation with tech stocks and lack of privacy, other advocates like Michael Saylor defend it as “digital capital.”

Market volatility has characterized much of 2026. Gold and silver experienced significant price swings, including sharp declines driven by Federal Reserve rate-hike expectations and a stronger dollar. Despite these fluctuations, Kiyosaki and others view price drops as buying opportunities, citing the massive scale of U.S. debt—approaching $40 trillion—as a primary driver for long-term hard-asset appreciation. Fidelity Digital Assets and other researchers have also noted a waning dominance of the U.S. dollar as investors seek broader diversification through blockchain-linked assets and increased currency variety.
