Absolutely agree! It is much much worse …. right now…. and we are getting closer to the beginning of it. The Financial World is again arrogant and blind.

Washington is making a massive bet on tariffs that could reshape the entire economy.

Are office buildings the last prop holding banks from imploding? Small banks are hiding massive losses in CRE. Massive, like going out of business levels of losses. That's why they're kicking the can hoping they don't have to foreclose. There's nothing to foreclose on. This shit would make Lehman look like a walk in the …

by confoundedinterest17 Mike McGlone has an interesting perspective on Bitcoin versus Gold. Gold $3,000, Bitcoin $70,000? Is there good reason for reversion lower? My bias is leaning that way, especially if the US hashtag#stockmarket reverses some of last year’s almost $12 trillion advance, about 40% of GDP. Bitcoin approaching $150,000 in 2025 might suggest another $12+ trillion …

via Gloom Boom Doom The inconvenient truth is that An Unprecedented Monetary Destruction Is Coming. In democratic societies, people love everything that causes inflation but hate the consequences, which are among others rising consumer prices.
