End of day March 31st, trillions of stock were sold. About 6 trillion dollars of stock sold. Biggest transaction in human history. trillion with a T, mostly western country companies.

Who has that kind of money? Not a person, not a hedge fund, not any business, Only a country like the US or China. So China..

Then a week later they dump the (petro)dollar and start a digital currency.

You might ask, why the market didn't crash,, dark pool, google it.. Part of how the game is rigged. They create synthetic shares in the dark pool market or they removes shares, depending on the situation.

With their puppet Joke Xiden installed, they're ready to make the move where their goal of being the ONLY dominant country in the world per their China 2050 plan.

The Great Reset starts with a great crash,, it's coming..

If the rest of you are as old as me and don't smell the "Carter Era" sh!t show that is coming don't blame me....
Look at the SM the last 2.5 months. The last 2 days have seen a falling yield, falling dollar AND a falling NASDAQ....Real inflation is almost 10%....Corporate tax cuts will cut Large cap/S&P to ribbons(Trumps tax cuts were what fueled the run up)

There's your sign....

So what should we do? What are you doing? This is a serious question, I have no idea

If you are a decent trader you will be able to find some pockets of return in the stock market but for lazy investors like me who prefer ETF's life just got a lot more difficult. Try your hand at some commodities but be aware they can be manipulated(gold/silver) and are subject to demand downfalls when the economy stalls out(copper and such). China is already starting to falter and with the rest of the World lagging in vaccine rollout I wouldn't be in a hurry to look overseas. Bonds are done for the foreseeable future.

If you have to borrow do it now would be best IMO as I believe rates will go up some but not likely double what they are now, maybe 1.5X or so. To me I see it as storm preparation. I want as many holdings secured(paid off) and a strong supply of cash even if it is losing some value. To me it's like having food, water and fuel when a Hurricane comes. Stocks I'm long on value/dividend because while I won't likely get double digit growth I will at least be getting more stability and 3-4% dividend. I'm still buying small amounts(a couple thousand here and there)of gold, silver and BC as I think they will break huge when we start to come out of this and maybe even before(2024).

My strategy includes cash as a way of being ready to pounce on another investment property once we see a retreat in RE. I want to add one more.

All of this is based on my situation and age and probably not right for anyone 5 years or so younger as they can afford to be a little more aggressive with their timeline. I've got less than 10 years before I hit retirement age although I plan to work beyond at our business and will be able to draw income from that.

Everyone is in a different place though.

If you are a business, rates will probably stay low for a while. The commercial lending rates dropped based on Trump's tax cuts and again 3/2020 with Prime dropping. Commercial lending rates were over 5% for a 5/1 arm, now there are some products that are under 3% for 10 years fixed over 25. So those rates won't jump too much, because you'd really need a lot to happen for the basic 5/1 arm to get over 5%.

There are a lot of caveats though. Such as investment real estate is not desirable to banks right now. A lot of the big boys aren't even looking at them. Mostly community banks and CU's.

this is not good, the ball starts rolling downhill and the dollar is toast, (it will be one day anyway from the trillions printed and debt unpayable)

Yet we see today the US(Gov.) call in their henchmen(banks & large hedgefunds) to go long on the dollar to short metals today...any wonder China and Russia just took record deliveries of Gold???
Our Gov.(Fed) has nowhere to go because Treasuries are so shorted....nobody wants them except OUR banks who are trying to trade their recent profits(cash) for pristine collateral...Anyone else smell a bailout....
Check out the emergency situation in the overnight repo(repurchase) markets....

People wake up our drunk insolvent Uncle Sam(Globalist in charge....Yellen) has us on the doorstep of full blown Socialism. Fool yourselves all you want with any gains in "the market"....you'll lose double that in taxation and TRUE inflation.....but, but, but....my house is worth this much...:jerkit::jerkit::jerkit:

$1 million over asking: D.C. bidding wars escalate as U.S. housing crunch intensifies

A house in Chevy Chase, Md., sold for $1 million above its asking price last month.

The five-bedroom, five-bathroom, 5,000-square-foot house in sought-after Chevy Chase Village was listed at $3,495,000 on April 16. After receiving seven offers, the sellers accepted a contract for $4,540,000 on April 19. The sale closed on May 3.


I am not very smart and only was able to graduate UF with a degree in Accounting, but my back of the envelope math tells me that is roughly 30% above asking price. Must have been the same buyers who purchased @BMF's cabin.

Get your money of any institutional companies, roll the dice on your own for a bit, or lose it all to their planned robbery..

Give me the dummy version of this. What "institutional companies" are at risk here?

Think this...Goldman Sachs(Trump admin) is selling everything right now. Think of what that is doing to the algies? They are doing this on purpose just like the Fed(Powell is a repub) is having the cooks at the BLS keep inflation high to squeeze Dems outta office in 2 months. Just do what I did and sell everything except Gold and Silver and put the rest into short term TBills for now3.25-3.90%....
