Ray Dalio calls for a "seismic shift" in international monetary policies

I believe that sometime in the next 18 months, we will probably have a seismic shift, very similar to the Bretton Woods breakup in 1971, in which linked monetary policies and linked exchange-rate policies come undone. The pain of holding them together is going to be terrible, and that's going to create the seismic shift
