A lot of people are looking for that big score and that means a lot of people are about to get hosed.

This bubble is big enough to take a hell of a lot with it when it pops. It will pop, too, I just don't know when.

International funds are up but stalled. AI and Tech are soaring, and these are growth sectors. I still say stock markets and crypto are creating money every bit as much as any Fed QE, asset purchase, or interest rate cut ever did. It all spells inflation in the years ahead. As to whether the tech bubble crashes markets or it waits to currency devaluation, who knows. The system is serving Broligarchy, so little people could be pretty much wiped out.

Hats off to ya!

but they never move all that much. What they do is pay dividends,and most are trading well below assessed market value as everybody else rushes to get a piece of the NVIDIA pie.

The problem is that so many institutional investors are doing the same thing, which is why when this bubble goes, it's going to take a lot with it.

will figure out some way to continue haunting the nation, too. Asshats are like vampires. Even ol' Joe McCarthy had to die before his influence faded...and now a new form of it has reappeared.
