My guest today is David Stockman, a former United States congressman. His books include, “The Great Deformation”, and “Trumped: A Nation on the Brink of Ruin… And How to Bring it Back”. He is the ultimate Washington insider turned iconoclast. He began his career in Washington as a young man and quickly rose through the ranks of the Republican Party to become the Director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Ronald Reagan. After leaving the White House, Stockman had a 20-year career on Wall Street.

The topics are his books Trumped! A Nation on the Brink of Ruin ... and How to Bring It Back and The Great Deformation: The Corruption of Capitalism in America.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Glass Steagall
  • Clinton and Trump campaigns
  • Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders supporters
  • Deutsche Bank
  • European banking system
  • Sub-zero interest rates
  • Chinese economy
