Best guess? They want it out of stock / securities and into hard assets like gold because they think the shite is about to hit the fan.


Considering the industrial numbers just released by the government, we appear to be looking at a major shitstorm on the horizon. You don’t necessarily want a lot tied up in things you can’t dump quickly if shite’s gonna get ugly.

Name one candidate for 24’ that didn’t initially go all in for closing down. State or federal level.

Congress was dead set on it. Media had their usual fear mongering full speed ahead.

Seven states did not issue stay-at-home orders. South Dakota didn't shut any businesses down.

Moreover, the idea of a "leader" is he f'n leads - even when it's hard. Nobody but DT was president at the time. Only he is held to that office's level of accountability, and reality is he failed bigly.

Selling now so they'll have a shite-ton to buy with when the market shits the bed this Fall.


Only reason I’m still in is I believe the regime tries to manipulate market through elections in November. Week before elections I’m going 100% cash.

because the market is rigged and its only up to protect democrats before the election, after midterms expect to see markets get cut by 25-40% down from where they are now.

if you dont want to lose your arse off, move to cash, and sit on it, then you can buy back in after the bloodbath that is coming by years end.

also those 87k new agents are mainly there just to go after your crypto investments which are about to be taxed

How and who is doing the rigging?

Is this through Fed QE?

IMO the boom bust cycle is controlled.

One specific example of likely fraud or "rigging" is overnight trading where you see huge increases or decreases which in effect go back to zero at the end of the overnight session.

Another is the way in which overnight liquidity is being propped up with IOU's to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars from the big banks. They are being allowed to trade without collateral and the FED has been aware of it for years and allows it to continue because they can't or don't want to address it.

We are a global economy living on credit card debt that the best case scenario has us just passing on to our children to deal with.

You can never ask a right winger to provide actual information regarding an irrational conspiracy theory. They will call you a pedo groomer communist, etc., which is code for someone who isn't in the cult.

Ironic post.

How do you respond to actual information?

And these irrational conspiracy theories, do they include:

1. The Left's war on free speech?
2. The Left's war on guns?
3. The Left's war on national borders?
4. DOJ/FBI's war on the Right?

I didn't check Bloomberg today but I'll log into the firm's terminal tomorrow.

I suspect net investment flow is positive over the past month in regards to equities - on the whole, investors aren't liquidating their equity positions.

Picking out individual investors liquidating certain portions of their portfolio doesn't mean anything. Michael Burry is pretty much a joke in the investment community - he got 2008 right and has been wrong ever since.

In my opinion, if you look at FED projections, GDP expectations are positive for this quarter so most firms are not pricing in recessions or contractions in real GDP. A reduction in consumer spending this quarter will be counteracted by an increase in government spending.
