I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but most people do not realize it is dead yet. And many still bank on its future existence.
However, can you blame the normal person? Stocks and bonds have existed their entire lives. How could they just go away? They have been called the "safe and diversified" portfolio, forever it seems. Only people who have lived through currency revaluation or was around when war bonds were defaulted on, know what happens.
If you listen to Catherine Austin Fitts, T.H.E.Y. have already cleaned out the retirement accounts. T.H.E.Y. have already sold their stocks. T.H.E.Y. are waiting to trigger the stock market collapse. And the currency collapse is already happening, you can see it in the bond market.
And the real estate market is already getting hit from every side. The thing that will completely change it is when there are no banks to give out mortgages. Then, like in 1929, when the stock market collapsed, you see someone selling a Rolls Royce for a stack of silver coins. Houses will have the value of whatever a person can physically offer.
Basically, the financial house of cards is coming down. The everything bubble will pop. And everything that was a "safe" investment goes to its intrinsic value.
The stock market
The stock market is a game of musical chairs where the only chair left is filled by a bankster. When the music stops…
It is so hard to work out exactly how the stock market goes, because there are so many knives aiming at its jugular.
- You don't own any stock. Unless you specifically had them transferred to you, AND registered them with the corporation.
- Stock on an exchange are owned by Cede and Company. You own a promise, on a promise, on a deal to get you a stock at a certain price. When the music stops, you own nothing.
- There is so much corruption in the market that it will shut down, just because of that. Every time stocks had to be accounted for, there was always more stocks than the company had outstanding shares.
- All the Bigs are going to collapse. This will play hell with the S&P 500.
- The baby boomer are retiring, meaning they will be unloading their portfolios, meaning money will be flowing out of stocks.
The stock market isn't even a house of cards. It has already been gutted, and the fireworks have already been placed. It is just a matter of which trigger(s) happens first.
Watch for foreign stock markets to close down due to fraud. Then you will notice the dominoes are already falling.
Real Estate
The Real Estate market only seems viable because of the mortgages/inflation have pumped it up so.
- The Boomers own 25% of houses, and they will be dumped onto the market shortly. And there is no one who can afford these homes at their current valuations. Price drops are eminent.
- Demographics are collapsing. There will never be enough people to live in all the existing inventory. Empty houses will be the normal going forward.
- Cities are collapsing. Many malls have died. The crime rate is going up. And jobs are no longer in the cities, they are now online. Meaning most of that commercial real estate is going to be empty. And more people are going to be moving away from crime, because they do not have any reason to stay.
As the economy continues to collapse, people will have to choose between rent and food. Soon, people will ALL choose food, and so many foreclosures and evictions will be happening, that the court systems will be overwhelmed. That is, unless the blue city governor/mayor doesn't just put a moratorium on evictions. Or enact rent controls that make rentals impossible to maintain, and impossible to sell.
Real estate will be a losing investment in almost every way. Well, it was never supposed to be an investment in the first place. It only seemed like one because the banksters could create free money to lend on mortgages.
Food
Food is going to have every problem imaginable, and then some.
You will see some grocery stores with blank areas in their shelves. Like during the Covaids lockdowns.
You will see the price of meat only available as you pay for it, because the price is fluctuating during the time from the meat counter to the checkout line.
You will see certain things just disappear from stores.
You will see shortages of bread, as wheat harvests aren't enough.
You will see food riots clean out stores, and make food delivery dangerous.
You will see food adultery like you never could have imagined. Things put into "food" that should never have been there. Like the VAXXX in meat.
The price of food is going to go up! And it isn't going to stop until grocery stores no longer exist.
Store food.
Buy in bulk.
Grow your own food.
It will save you money. And it may save your life.
It is really hard to adjust when something you have known all your life changes.
And it is really hard to decide if things have changed, or that this is just a hickup, and things will go back to normal. Well, we won't see anything like a normal for about half a century. It is going to be one big change after another.
All the Bigs are going to crumble. All the olds are going to turn to dust. The harder you hold onto them, the more they will be like holding onto an anchor as the ship sinks.
The times are going to get better. Much better than many can imagine now. Real money will be a thing, and people who have a job will be getting money that doesn't just disappear. So, although the olds may disappear, the new will replace it, and you will probably be better for it.
So, stay loose. Ride the waves. And be sure to have a supply of food saved up.
