There is a fierce war ongoing. Many battlefields.
One is the stock market. The bad guys manipulate it, and are propping it up. All (ALL!) the big cap stocks are in cahoots - just dig a bit and discover how much they own of each other - its a fabric mesh of ownership.
Another battleground was/is gamestock... and physical silver. Look at silver in the last few hours?
And, earlier today, the FED completely crashed. Around 11:15 AM, there were 0 (zero!) bank-to-bank transfers. The entire system was down. Some non-internal services that us little guys use was restored by mid-afternoon. All is restored now.
The deep state wants appearances to be normal-looking.
If/when they start losing their grip, dow will crater, fed will collapse for good. Physical silver will.... rise (even more). The DS wants to maintain silver low.
“If/when they start losing their grip, dow will crater,”
Of the statements thus far, I think yours has the most worth.
