Ray Dalio's Link To DDTG Global
Ray Dalio has been linked to becoming an associate for Dave Portnoy, founder of DDTG Global. Dave, the modern Benjamin Graham, has created a renaissance of value investing with his phrase “Stocks Only Go Up.” DDTG Global is known for its groundbreaking analytics, contrarian beliefs, and exquisite cuisine.
Rumor has it Ray Dalio is responsible for DDTG Global’s latest deep value investment $MVIS. The stock up a meager 789% in the past 3 months, appears fundamentally sound and undervalued. While no one actually knows what this stock is, the company has been described on Twitter as a “hybrid of Enron and Bitcoin”.
