On the morning of April 7th Eastern Time, Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, recently wrote that the current market is overly focused on tariff appearances while overlooking deeper systemic transformations. Dalio believes we are witnessing the synchronized reconstruction of five major forces:
Monetary/economic order collapse;
Disintegration of domestic political order in the United States;
Reorganization of international geopolitical order;
Destructive impact of natural disasters (drought, floods, and pandemic);
Significant influence of technological transformation (such as artificial intelligence).

[The rest of the translation follows the same pattern, maintaining the original structure and translating all text except for the XML tags]I elaborated on these contents in "Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order", a book that clearly shows how such a "total big cycle" unfolds in six distinct stages, transitioning from one order to the next. The book provides comprehensive content that allows people to compare the current situation with typical historical evolutions, thereby identifying which stage we are in and what might happen next.
When I wrote that book and other books, I hoped, and still hope:
1) To help policymakers understand these forces and interact with them, promoting better policies that generate better outcomes;
2) To help individuals—who cannot individually influence policies but can generate power together—better cope with these forces, thereby securing better results for themselves and those they care about;
3) To encourage intelligent people with different perspectives to engage in open, in-depth dialogue with me, working together to discover the truth and find solutions.
