Legendary investor Jeremy Grantham has just published his Q4 2012 letter to GMO clients.
Much of the letter is an extension of the extremely bearish message of his Q3 letter, in which he predicted GDP growth to decelerate from around 0.9 percent per year to 0.4 percent from 2030 to 2050.
Those who are invested in today’s markets, however, may find one part of his letter particularly frightening.
