There are many Anons who share this opinion with me: the stock market needs to come way down as part of the pain and precipice of the FJB regime.
This is a pretty good article on Zerohedge about how the Federal Reserve drives the market with its rate policy, etc. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/what-if-whole-point-end-fed-put
If you look at the bubble symmetry models within the article, the timing of the back side of the current bubble lines up with 2024. Could be nothing more than a fancy chart that would be right if it happens, and wrong if it doesn't--in other words, not a concrete tool for investment advice.
Anyway, preparedness includes getting things in order for a market decline. I hope you're ready with things like: 6 months of food and a way to prepare it, as little variable debt as possible, physical precious metal, projectile metal and a way to fire it (!), networks with friends of a like mind, a way to heat your home if you're in a cold region, a water source, printed books that explain basic skills and techniques for survival and medicine, and most importantly a relationship with God. Oh, and toilet paper.
As it stands right now there is nothing on the charts that suggests the market is going to have a crash. While anything is possible I think we have to consider that we don't know everything that is in the plan. We may think the stock market has to go down for the plan to work. It could be possible that the market just hangs around between last years lows and highs while inflation destroys the value of whatever gains people get in the stock market. If the market does not go up more than inflation it is the same as the market going down with no inflation.
I don't dispute what you're suggesting. Could very well be that way. But there are many black swan possibilities, and, it was the symmetry of the bubble mechanics that made me have the initial thought. As always... we'll have to just wait and see.
