Paul Tudor Jones on inflation hedges: Long gold, bitcoin, commodities

Billionaire hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones says he is long gold ( XAUUSD:CUR ), bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) and commodities, and also noted that the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite index ( COMP:IND ) was a "great" inflation hedge. Jones' comments came in an interview with CNBC on Tuesday while discussing the deteriorating situation of the U.S. debt trajectory. The interview was conducted just a few days after government data showed the annual budget deficit rose by $138B to $1.8T in the fiscal year that ended in September. According to Jones, the "playbook" to reducing the country's debt to GDP ratio is to "inflate your way out." "You have a small tax on the consumer, and you run interest rates below inflation and nominal growth above inflation," Jones told CNBC. "All roads lead to inflation. I am long gold. I am long bitcoin. I think commodities are so ridiculously underowned, so I'm long commodities," Jones said. "I think most young people find their inflation hedges via the Nasdaq, that's also been great. I probably have some basket of gold, bitcoin, commodities and Nasdaq, something like that. And I own zero fixed income," he added. Jones' comments come at a time when gold prices are sitting at record highs. Spot gold ( XAUUSD:CUR ) settled at $2,746.07/ounce on Tuesday, as investors flock to the safe-haven amid geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and an uncertain U.S. economic and political outlook.

Meanwhile, bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) has been on an upward trend lately, which analysts have attributed to volatility in the lead-up to the U.S. presidential election. Notably, about $560M flowed into 11 spot bitcoin ETFs on Monday, the largest amount since early June, according to data from London-based Farside Investors. Turning to the Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ), the tech-heavy gauge has soared 23.7% YTD, as the artificial intelligence (AI) trade continues to boom.
