"All of these tensions will be exacerbated," Dalio added. "The wealth gap and the tensions between the groups will be exacerbated, the effectiveness of monetary policy in stimulating an economy is less than it used to be."
In addition, "the asset prices have benefited and are now high as a result fo the liquidity that has been put in," Dalio said."We're near the best we can be."
"There is nothing immediately that's scary, he added, but "to take a two or three year perspective, I'm concerned."
