Great historical advice. Are you prepared?

Chilidawgz, thanks so much for a dose of sanity bright and early Monday morning before Wall Street insanity begins.  What most don't understand is that the dollar is now simply a medium of exchange, not a store of wealth.  In and of itself, it is worthless.  It is needed to let a barber hire a plumber without having to cut his hair.  Going from a fiat back to a store of wealth based currency is possible, however, it would probably require a multi-metal system using gold, silver, platinum, nickel, manganese, lithium, you name it metals due to the amount required, but it wouldn't let Uncle Sam run constant deficits which is their bread and butter, so it's not likely to happen, that is until the big reset.

 

Regards,

Douglas

Everything is a store of trading for everyone.... I remember way back in the day while we waited in the long lines at disneyland I was trading on my Palm pilot with Lind Waldock or it may have been Mf global can't remember if they had bought them yet lol!!!  Now everyone is trading off their phones easily and that has changed the entire atmosphere of trading and people are experiencing their first real pullback that the market doesn't just go up.  Think we'll see chop and grind grind grind as we make newer and newer lows for some time to come but crash,,,, not yet.....

Yeppers...that Pic Perfect Hangin' Man on TQQQ did indeed lead to carnage...could not ask for a better looking Monthly Candle at the end of a huge bubble run for a Grand Finale

 

2/3 haircut...I wonder how many of the "market only goes up" folks are getting destroyed in this thing....
