Swiss Franc / US DollarThis is another specific position against the inflation happening in the US Dollar .
Betting against the US Dollar in a "safe-heaven" currency as the Swiss Franc is considered as such.
The total money supply of the US Dollar went from 4 trillion dollars in 2020 to currently over 6 trillion dollars. I have nothing to add here.
Depressive times need a little bit of imaginativeness when it comes to investing, particularly important is the awareness of future changes in the FED's monetary policy, whether dramatically polarizing events will occur or not and how this as a whole will have an impact onto the markets for the next years.
Depression
$CMPS longOkay okay, I was way too early on this one and called it right when a bunch of Macro factors took a shit on the market. So yeah. Anyways now is the time.
Thought I'd make this post since I am sampling their "product" and to correct my prior early calls. Their product is amazing and is a godsend for those that suffer from anxiety, depression, etc.
All targets remain intact. Reached its "IPO" level and held. Nothing but blue skies from here on out in my opinion.
Looking for this thing to hit $60, then $75, then $100. From there; no clue, I'll have to reassess at that point.
RSI is more overcooked (oversold) than Aunt Bonnie's favorite Xmas dish.
Entered a Short based on TD Sequential on MYM using futuresEntered a Short based on TD Sequential Green 9 on MYM using futures on Tastyworks. MYM 2 Contracts. Every point is a dollar. Entered at 35,607.50. I am hoping for a reversal based on the Green 9. The U.S. Government is delaying the inevitable using stimulus and false hopes of inflation being transitory. The Shipping Containers stuck at sea on the West Coast. Bitcoin reaching new ATH's for people hoping to get out of the system. Civil Unrest across the world and here at the U.S.
SET Stock Exchange of ThailandThe Stock Exchange of Thailand is ready to make a last bounce followed by long period of Depression.
The post covid happiness will create a Fomo in Multiples international Indexes with a fake return of Tourism, Medias and Televisions will speak about we are returning to the normality, but this will be a short term joy stage.
Peoples will need some fresh air, they will move overseas for holidays, but the reality is their lack of money will make them spend less and back home faster, they will have to work harder and for years to refill their wallets decently.
The money printer stimulus will generate more taxes out from nowhere in most parts of the World, a new inflation system will come to knock medium and poor peoples doors.
Happy Tr4Ding!
THE MOST TERRIFYING FRACTAL. DEPRESSION COMINGThe market is completely disconnected from reality. Everyone can see that. We are seemingly about to "return to normal" post covid with most major cities ready to open back up. Even the most liberal cities like my own, Chicago, is finally going to allow its business owners to salvage what has been destroyed by their leaders policies. I fear this level of complacency will end with devastation very soon. Everyone sees the joke we call an equities mark. Cryptos like, "hold my beer", NFT's, cum coins, doge coins, shiba whatever, wtf is going on. Many bubbles form the same simple shape and apple macro is a massive bubble (see related ideas), similar to btc btc in 2017. Currently apple looks like it is making a giant topping formation (H&S) with HEAVY sell pressure, similar to btc on the medium time frames. It looks very very similar to btc before its recent tumble (which is far from over). It could be BTC is foreshadowing what is to come with apple (and the entire stock market). We will find out very soon if this plays out. I think the market conditions are ripe for this drop. If indeed this plays out we will see apple fall 60% INITIALLY. Can you imagine what the overall market would look like if that kind of a dump happened. I wouldn't be surprised if some news or event occurred to actually play this out. Very weird thing about charts is they often anticipate a big event. I fear whatever it is wont be good. This may be the final thrust into America. G*d help us.
Greatest Depression in Our Lifetimes This Decade?This is all just hypothetical. Everything will eventually form a parabola. Do people really think we'll have another 10+ years of an artificial bull market in America? Do people really think there's no consequences for the unlimited printing of money? Do people really think the stock market won't eventually have a massive correction?
It will be interesting to see how this decade will play out. Personally I'm pretty pessimistic about the future of the dollar and this potential market correction could be catastrophic and lead to social unrest given the rise in populism. Worst case scenario equals a modern day great depression that would be the biggest in the history of America. Just my opinion.
Hedge well. Much peace love health and wealth.
Some of the most notable GDP contractions of recent historyRussia & Ukraine bit the bullet in 2008 and has some decline, and another decline in the mid 2010s (maybe made worse because of droughts?).
They recovered by now (the US collapse might pull them down or maybe free them to go up).
Even Germany GDP between 2014 and 2015 dropped by 15% (never heard of a great depression) , their GDP now is back to 2014 levels, it took 3-4 years to get back to pre-(undercover) recession levels.
France same thing, Turkey, Iran, the UK, Canada...
There is 1 exception: the US. Hey George Soros was right shorting it back then but he forgot about brrrrr.
China is also an exception but their growth was so big it could absorb the hit, it went from 10% growth to 6%.
The US GDP did not drop and growth not even slowdown.
The life expectancy in Russia was skyrocketting until 1965, this is when it started to stagnate even decline a bit (it dropped in the US btw they're behind several African countries now).
It's ridiculous it went from 24 yo in 1945 (even before the war it was at around 30) to nearly 70 by 1965. No wonder communism lasted so long.
Ironically much of the gains were from babies surviving birth but soviets started furiously aborting, so the real life expectancy actually went down...
From the fall of the USSR to ~2000 depending on the source the life expectancy dropped by ~5 years.
The US life expectancy did not drop since WW1, until 2020. Covid, or foreign dependency? The medications other countries used were not easilly available in the US.
What if all their hate for the many treatments 2/3 the entire world outside of the west have been using was just a silly way to avoid saying "yes they work, but we don't have any of these cheap drugs"?
The silly restriction rules in Europe, and part of the reason why the death rate was so high, is (officially and when you look at the numbers) a lack of beds.
They did not have enough stuff to provide treatment to the sick. I think it's possible the US were in the same situation they dug themselves in over the years.
A country collapsing does not mean "stock indice go down", it breaks down in many other ways, and "stonks" can keep going up like the pyramid scheme they are.
A grim conclusion
There was only 1 superpower left in 1992. Soon there will be 0 left. The standard of living of the west will drop but the US will drop most because they are on life support from the rest of the world (China, Mexico, Germany, and many others de facto send humanitarian aid to the US to keep them fat and rich).
The higher you push life expectancy the exponentially harder it is right? And it drops more.
Life expectancy in the US is going to drop by 5-10 years. It dropped by 5 years in Russia and it was not as high and Russia was not as broke as the US.
A large part of the "problem" is the aging population (that refuses to postpone the age of retirement and ask for even more social welfare).
Nature always finds a way...
There is euphoria now it seems. Everyone cheers when they get their stimulus checks. They won't be cheering when they die of old age at 70 years old.
My call: Less than 10 years before "This was not real socialism".
looks like this is back down to the average pricelooks like this is back down to the average price
might hit a little higher than that before movie higher but i will put bids in at both levels
The inflation tradePrices are going up in spite of the "safe haven" usd ponzi scheme going up (short term like 12 months ago?).
It has even started going to what people notice & care about: consumer goods, end products.
They can be in denial until they feel it at the store, because even a 5 year old would understand that.
Fast foods have already increased their prices significantly.
We will soon hear people say "if you told me 5 years ago I would have called you crazy", I know, they called me crazy for years now.
"Take your meds". Let's see who gets last laugh.
RE, stock, crypto prices have already gone up. More a bubble than inflation. Debatable. The ones responsible act dumb and are in denial. The only negative consequences directly noticeable were populism & antifa riots.
The world has entered the second stage: increase in prices of usable commodities. And now it's going to start hurting.
It has completely skyrocketed, so violently, the price doubled, but here it is not the sign of a great industry
Food prices have also gotten very stupid very fast
Other prices to look at are these:
It is harder to find this data.
Here on a british site we can see that their pharmaceutical prices were in a range since 2000 and broke out violently recently
www.ons.gov.uk
Often the sources for prices will be the FED... Asking a suspect if he is innocent...
I don't run a big fund with a big research department with hundreds of analysts I can't check everything, but what I can do is look at China where lots of these goods come from, electronics etc.
Last year chinese economists and officials were publicly showing their worry of their usd bags, they build their country around exporting and on the way accumulated a lot of IOU, some of their work has not really been paid for yet, they got some worthless pieces of paper that lose value over time, they don't mind as long as they are confident these worthless pieces of paper will become something useful one day, they understand the difference between some number and purchasing power unlike most of the population lmao that get excited at the word "1 million".
First last year there was some huge news no one heard about that China build their own monetary zone in east asia, you know, what Gaddafi did just before France & their bodyguard the US decided the north african country needed some democracy.
China has started lowering its USD exposure, without hiding it, anyone could make money on this trend, the trend has lasted so long even Warren Buffett is watching now I bet.

The producer price index for all commodities will be at a new ath soon, it went way up during the inflation & growth period then stagnated at the top since the recession:
fred.stlouisfed.org
Producer Price Index by Commodity: Inputs to Industries: Net Inputs to Mining and Oil and Gas Field Machinery Manufacturing Industry, Mining and Oil and Gas Field Machinery Manufacturing, Excluding Capital Investment, Labor, and Imports
Big breakout!
A big export of the US is refined Oil, prices of Oil go up AS well as machinery ===> Their output will go down, I'm not sure if democrats want to lower it to "save the planet" (making their situation worse) or just let it lower by itself (which they obviously know is happening) then take credit for it?
fred.stlouisfed.org
Net Inputs to Residential Construction, Goods
ALL. TIME. HIGHS. Since 2020 it has mooned. This is very bad! They already have a crisis here.
fred.stlouisfed.org
Net Inputs to Commercial and Healthcare Structures, Goods
Another all time high. More old obese people and ever higher costs to build hospitals & other infra
fred.stlouisfed.org
I'd rather make a video of this seriously, idk if tradingview has this yet.
The services index was at 100 Jan 2015- Jan 2017, 110 Q2 2020, and now at 127. Started going VERTICAL.
fred.stlouisfed.org
I think we have seen enough.
I will now attempt a drawing, german stonks
Jan-July 1918: 1 gold mark = 1.25 Reichs mark
9 November 1918: Wilhelm II abdication, start of Weimar republic. Socialists quickly start being the ones in charge. Always ends well.
December 1918: 1 gold mark = 2.00 Reichs mark
December 1919: 1 gold mark = 9.61 Reichs mark
December 1920: 1 gold mark = 14.53 Reichs mark
...
November 1922: 1 gold mark = 1282 Reichs mark
Late 1922: France socialists & Belgium occupy the Ruhr (west industrial region) to make Germany pay in goods (genius idea btw)
November 1923: 1 gold mark = 115,000,000,000 Reichs mark
The chart they never showed you
A loaf of bread in Berlin that cost around 160 Marks at the end of 1922 cost 200,000,000,000 Marks by late 1923.
This is when the public started really caring. It all develops over several years, it really started picking up in 1919.
I do not know what bread prices were and what industrial goods prices were, it's a bit different here too.
In the US case, where it has just began skyrocketing up, consumer goods follow a bit after "industrial" goods go up.
It escalates over years, it's really not a sprint there is plenty of time to prepare.
It's clearly not a race against the public that needs more time to understand, their understanding is not a function of time, but a function of when their shopping cart price goes up. We are very early. You can store toilet paper etc (for your own use don't be stupid don't try to profit from it by selling stuff at a discount when prices soar the peasants will come at you with torches, maybe, idk how their illogical emotional brains work) without the slightest competition as the herd isn't intelligent enough to figure this out, once they do though they'll all rambo like rhinoceroses.
When it gets really bad it will accelerate like crazy like germany hyperinflation in 1923. Maybe China says enough is enough or idk whatever.
Maybe industrials just cannot continue and all manufacturing stops. Like oil businesses chain failures a few years ago.
And these industrials are mega overleveraged lol.
Funny how during these terrible times in Germany the social-democrats had the majority, and now in the US who has the majority?
It's always the same guys 😂
Maybe that's just how every society naturally evolves? Late stage democracy or something. Good times make weak men. Weak men create hard times.
Checking these "Producer Price Index by Commodity: Inputs to Industries" is like having a crystal ball because the impact comes later and the unwashed plebes have no clue until it happens.
Some potential investment choices, not an advisor, just throwing out a few ideas:
> Stocking up on consumer goods now before prices go up is actually a smart investment decision, you will save money.
> Experienced speculators can buy some far away long Oil contract, other commodities too even. Oil could be going 3 digits personal opinion.
> Experienced traders just be focussed don't rest, LF commodity longs, LF usd short when the time is right, LF irrational prices, LF contango...
> Noobs don't go learn to trade now and get slapped by increased volatility and having no idea what you're doing
> Bond buyers just send me your money directly if you don't want it I'll make better use
> House prices will surely go up but socialists probably will take their fair share and give your RE to some hobo so sucks
> Don't show your wealth when things get really bad, but why would you waste money you could invest?
> Wageslaves will get crushed in the medium term, for those that spend all they earn and have nothing to spare press f, don't over-rely on a salary
> Might as well leave the west in the next 5 years
> Credit default swaps on the federal government?
Dow jones (DJI) - 100 year cycle? I see this bull run, starting 2009 as a diagonal.
1.We can clearly see that the sub waves are NOT consistent of only 1-5 but rather ABC waves within each of the bigger waves.
2. This is only possible within a diagonal. Short interest is high and price is squeezed.
3. I do not have a time perspective on the crash but the zone between 36,5 - 42k seems to be the highest probability according to fib-relations.
I will update this idea as time goes but I expect a bigger correction soon to mark the smaller B-wave within the 5th wave we are in right now.
Thereafter I will count the subwaves of waves C to predict where the end will be with much better accuracy.
Is this the end of the 100 year cycle? The great depression all over again?
This drug company could ride the pot wave on a mushroom capThis drug company could ride the pot wave on a mushroom cap.
Just a hunch
No hard numbers
The mental metrics just line up for me.
What was once illegal and destructive is now legal and restorative.
Shocking!
And NOT investment advice - just an observation.
Great Depression Bubble Pattern AnalysisCharting the Pattern of the Pre Depression Bubble
Phase 1: Trending breakout of basing formation in a strong up-trending move
Phase 2: Trending high-volatility drawdown (usually not related to stock or index itself).
Phase 3: Trending recovery - stock or index shrugs off the high volatility event as it recovers quickly and stronger than before.
Phase 4: Upwards & & sideways non-trending consolidation. Typically choppy trading, but slightly upward move.
Phase 5: 3 Phase blowoff top - breakout of non-trending consolidation followed by a smaller upwards consolidation into final blowoff breakout top.
... or die tryingIntroductory Warning:
This is long (at least for my doing), it is not directly related to trading, instead this is about MY journey, why am I here, how did I get here.
Maybe you can take some lessons from it, maybe you recognize yourself in it a bit or maybe you just feel the uncontrollable need to make fun of me in the comments in order to hide your own insecurity or stupidity or maybe you're just bored and need something to waste your time.
Whatever the reason you are here, feel free to stay or head-for-the-hills
Life does not give you what you want .
Life gives you what you need .
What you think you need, seldom is what you truly need .
Life gives me 🍋🍋 all the time, i don't like lemons.
Make lemonade ? I don't like lemonade either, the taste of citrus-fruits always makes me think of cleaning products (like drinking/eating from poorly rinsed dishes) .. and than adding tons of sugar? I'll pass (it goes for most detergents, why would I want my clothes to smell as if Ii just spilled peach-yogurt on them?).
There must be a third way, the road less traveled, the road every one is missing, maybe not using the road altogether.
Maybe turn those 🍋🍋 into dishwasher instead and rinse lifes mouth with it until it behaves and doesn't talk back anymore.
Sometimes there is no alternative, only way is right through the black-hole. But this isn't about self-annihilation, ego-death or 'reinventing yourself'.
What makes someone decide to become a trader, investor, speculator ?
Most often it's just simple Greed .
An evolutionary trait, gathering as much of something (food?) as possible in order to survive harsh times. The basic necessity mostly became redundant, yet the primal-drive stayed in tact.
Many people feel the need to (ful)fill their lives with abundance of luxurious, needless goods. Fancy clothes, jewellery, cars.
It goes right 🖐️ in 🖐️ with Fear .
The fear of losing something (lose the stack of food, lose your life)
I also have a need that wants to be fulfilled but it isn't money related, unfortunately money is the vessel that can get me there.
Math
When I was in school I hated math (who doesn't), I just couldn't get those stupid tables memorized.
Then again, why should I, if I can't memorize what 7x7 is, I'll just have to calculate, (me as child: i know 7x10=70 just 1x7 add the 0 and 7+7=14 +7=21, so 70-21= 70-20=50-1=49 ) might take a bit longer .. but I'll get there. I'll do it MY WAY.
And this is a very important concept for me, I am very rigid on things, I do not and cannot simply memorize things, I cannot just take things for granted, I have to understand the fundamentals and often details of the subject at hand in order to accept the whole. This mindset is me in my core, this I cannot change, this I will have to work with.
To quote Michael "invest in water" Burry :
I don't believe anything unless I understand it inside out. And even if I understand something, it is not uncommon that I disagree with accepted view (even if it's a Nobel laureate).
(I did NOT know of his quote until I searched for a fitting one, the similarities are astonishing)
Programming
In the early 90's I pondered on the idea of learning to program (imagine writing cool games like Wolf3D yourself some day .. other boring reasons too). I started trying Basic and Pascal, to no avail. Memorizing all the codes ? The real incentive just wasn't there.
Using Windows 3.1 and Windows95 (thnx Bill Gates: "Learning from mistakes and constantly improving products is a key in all successful companies." and man did they improve things 🤦) wasn't exactly a picnic either, so I tried this wondrous "new" OS called Linux, even though I come from the DOS generation, I couldn't get used to it and there where no alternatives to my programs and games at that time.
Psychology
Friendships, relationships, any -🚢 really, weren't always easy for me. It took me well into my young adulthood (no ship) until I fully realized that I do not need much of that but what's more, I don't want too much of that.
as Anthony Hopkins once said:
"I am not very good with relationships. With anyone. I can't be locked up with anyone for too long."
and
"I am a bit of a solitude person - a solitary personality. I like being on my own. I don't have any major friendships or relationships with people."
As a toddler, in the stroller, I was already silently observing everything that I saw in contrast to other children being much more reactive to their surrounding.(I was more "Think, don't do" as to "Do, don't think" )
There is so much to be learned by just watching and listening. Passively not actively.
Years go by, doing what a person does, a job here a job there, hobbies and all sorts of time wasting things like arguing.
Arguing and disagreeing with neighbors about letting their dogs piss against our stuff and 💩 in front of our house, cats 💩 in our yard, parking cars thereby blocking our driveway, loud music, stench of all sorts, them or their children vandalizing your property (on camera - yet no-one intervenes), you name it, I reckon you have neighbors too 🙄
--for some reason it always escalates into more annoyances instead of resolving issues (people are mostly self-centered, arrogant, inconsiderate pieces of Dunning-Kruger 💩)
Disagreeing with mechanics after the n-th time they ❤️ you over, I taught myself to do ALL repairs myself, welding, head-gasket, brakes .. the car is 30years old, so yeah, there IS work.
I've always tried to repair everything myself. I come from a milieu that was about durability and not luxury (there wasn't much around so one had to make do) and I have to agree with Greta Thunberg on her "How dare you" speech.
How dare you (all of you) rape our planet the way you do (Planned Obsolescence and mass consumerism at all cost).
Do you not realize you not only jeopardize your own health and future but that of your children and ALL generations to come ? Of ALL living things ultimately ?
so .. the years go by and life is catching up with you.
You keep losing jobs (mostly because you "don't fit the team" and the occasional bankruptcy), losing friends, family is dwindling too.
Hobbies don't interest you no more .. the dormant depression (besides your Dysthymia) comes crawling to the surface more and more, not only because you realize you'll never get out of this mess .. EVER, but also because you understand more and more about how ❤️-up this world (and by that I mean Human) really is.
Something has to change, but you cannot figure out what. You cannot change yourself, your core-values, trying to 'just fit in more'. That's not gonna work. You cannot change the world either.
You keep clashing with other people over and over again.
You can't live with them ...
You're pretty sure you have exhausted all possible (to you) ways of making a dent into this mess called life. What remains ?
Buying a house, somewhere out there, away from ...'people' and all the troubles, a place where you can just be YOU. Without all the annoyance and aggravation.
BUT .. nobody is going to just give you money or at least loan you some, can't get a mortgage either. So there you are, stuck in your own personal hell.
... you can't escape them.
So there you are again, lost, you need that third option.
Somewhere in between all of my misery, an acquaintance once said to me: "Maybe Bitcoin is something for you?!"
While I always haggled or traded something throughout my life, it never occurred to me to do "Financial Trading".
The learning curve of trading is something all traders have to do themselves, so I will not bore you with my specific path.
I am amazed by how far I've come (yet at the same time stood still), in many aspects, previous knowledge comes in handy here and newly learned now completes puzzles I previously couldn't solve.
Math, Programming and Psychology for example, they all meet back here (at least for me they do), only this time .. I actually DO (kind of) enjoy them (well mostly) 🤣
Math is self-evident .. you just need it. The programming I picked up initially because I wanted some alterations in some basic indicators (fit them to my needs) and from there it grew to writing complex strategies for back-testing. Psychology .. feel free to look at some of my other "Educationals", know yourself, know the competition and all of those 'opinions'.
Am I there yet ? The strict goal of my venture, the house ? No.
For the same reason as in real life, I have to much projects at the same time. It's mostly swing-trades for me, but because of the large time-frames, impatience, loss of focus, I start to look at other things, new strategies, scalps etc. then forgot to enter at the right time and .. want to talk about self-loathing? (expert right here, this ***damn idiot could have been very done by now, if he'd payed attention and not pulled all the orders last minute .. over and over again ). Day-trading and scalps .. can't really put in the hours needed because of other obligations and trouble with focus. I need to trade when I can, not just when the market presents itself (albeit that's how one should).
I have nothing to show for from all that life has thrown at me and all I have done with it. Except maybe for all the brain-filling I have gathered.
I'm not even close to buying my house - my freedom yet. While I judge people very hard, what most people don't see is, that I judge myself so much harder.
Maybe you think I am a hypocrite, arrogant, narcissistic, or just no longer 'my own entity' .. I don't care, if anything I'm the biggest loser of them all .. for I can not reach that bar I set so obviously 'low' for myself, every single time, (would I rather want to live in self-deceit like they do?). Unforgiving of my own mistakes: "if I let this slip by .. I'm prone to do it again .. and again, how will I ever learn".
Almost everything a person can be called, I've been called, the good and the bad.
The more my knowledge of things grows, the more the duality inside me grows with it (the frequency shortens, the amplitude widens). The more the void takes over as well. The goal losing its importance. All becomes meaningless.
Did trading do this to me or was it ultimately inevitable ? Just a path that had to be taken ?
By writing it all down I do not seek approval, confirmation, attention, affirmation or donation. It is just something I have to do, as a part of the road taken. Only I can make changes in my life.
In this pitch-black tunnel of depression and 'far worse things',
I sometimes can see the very faint shimmering of this tiny little Candle, be it red, be it green,
bringing back some hope, even if only for brief moments, will I succeed, it remains to be seen.
Fascism will rise again"Nationalism bad" over and over. So here in France I can't listen to someone from the far left for 5 minutes without hearing about how republican they are.
Haha "republican", what they really mean is nationalist. "French republican values", "foreigners HAVE to adopt french republican values", "Europe goes against our republican values".
Call it how you want, it is nationalism.
They hate globalism and banks soooo much. In the UK the labor guy that got horrible results was openly antisemitic and did not say sorry yet.
His brother is a climate denier by the way haha I'm surprised they did not use that against him.
The far right at least are open and honest about nationalism. The far right doesn't like globalism much but the far left hates it with a passion.
Like seriously, they want to rip their eyes out. I honestly think they would want to send "international jewish bankers" in the oven.
In France far left + far right get about half of votes, but the divide to conquer tactic allowed each side to hate the other one so they can never win. Yet.
The liberal-bourgeois lügenpress propaganda is not working anymore, too easy to debunk, they are on the decline, and actually their lies are so transparent that is has the opposite effect.
It would not surprise me the decadent liberal-bourgeois governments have created this covid crisis on purpose, they are desperate to stay in power, and to blame the inevitable debt depression crisis on something.
George Soros has been financing Antifa I assume he thinks they are the lesser of 2 evils? He wants his family to dodge the camp maybe?
Antifa are MORONS. They spit on everybody. Anyone that tries to enter their little zones they harass. They are hostile to EVERYONE. This is not how you gain support.
They're a bunch of barely organized clowns and I do not think they are the lesser of 2 evils. But well the oligarchs support the democrat party far more than these radical groups.
Maybe the covid crisis was created to avoid blaming jews like "last time"? They have Israel now you know? No need for a desperate Madagascar plan now...
Everyone is fed up with the liberal bourgeois so a choice will probably have to be made. Will the very rich support Antifa & cie when they scream "eat the rich"?
Will religious people? Hell no. Will the middle class support a group that hates them? No, at least not the mentally stable white middle class, can't tell for sure for the rest.
Antifa is stupid, believes in Santa Claus, is hostile to everybody, has no sound plan. My chips are on fascists or nationalists or whatever we will see what emerges.
There is a rumor, it says that the EU wants to wait for 2022 french elections to push their agenda because "they fear it will get a populist elected" seriously...
Oh and Macron the president said him and his minister buddies will makes changes so unpopular they would not get re-elected for sure.
Fun fact: In 1830 there was a revolution in France. As it became evident the revolutionary alliance won, in the night the liberal-bourgeoisie placed propaganda signs on walls, and they took over by force, journalists & congressmen stabbed republicans in the back and put liberal-bourgoies in power, with their monarch at the top.
Republicans fixed that in 1848. This was 200 years ago. Journalists and deputies/representatives were already like they are today. Fake news were partisans before Trump called them fake news, they were lying before Goebbels called them the lügenpress. Once you read about and understand what happened in the past, the factions, the tactics, it all becomes really obvious.
In France 1848 was the start of the first industrial wave, with big projects: railroads, textiles, metal melting...
To find economic info about the time you really have to dig in hard. Nobles vanished but instead you got robber barons and oligarchs in general, today we have no nobility (or very little and they are powerless) instead we have the oligarchs. Oligarchs rose probably very similarly to how nobles rose back in the day. They probably have the same qualities lol. Get rid of nobles get oligarchs. Get rid of oligarchs get something new. The people that want to get rid of this class think they are smarted than 1 million year of human history. They are not.
I could go on and on but let's end it here.
They hate Trump but they have no clue... Some will have a brutal awakening!
I'm going to guess that roughly the depression will last 20 years, and the west will continue its long term slowdown-decline of course.
A depression within a larger time frame secular decline. Wave 1.
Trump was just a little preview of what is to come. Traitorous no-compromise liberal bourgeoisie is making sure of it.
STOCKS WON'T TRULY GO UP!THE NOMINAL PRICE OF EQUITIES, PRICED IN U$Ds, MAY VERY WELL CONTINUE TO RISE AND MAKE NEW ALL-TIME HIGHS!
BUT THEY WILL NOT RISE AS FAST AS THE PRICE OF FOOD, OTHER COMMODITIES OR THE PRICE OF PRECIOUS METALS (REAL MONEY)!
THEREFORE, THEIR PURCHASING POWER WILL HAVE IN FACT FALLEN!
