The stock market has been a great investment for decades.
Some see that as a reason to stay in.
I see it as a reason to sell now and take the profits.
Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.
It’s hard to get upheaval when you can create infinite money.
And no, that does not mean inflation results. The dirty secret of economics is money is a substance created from nothingness by central banks like the Fed. Such a substance does not have to conform to any “laws” (of economics) or “truths” or anything else. It came from nothing. Why would you expect it to conform to?
Upheaval requires war that threatens the central bank in question with physical destruction. Or disease. Or asteroid strike.
Think about this a moment. All post Apocalypse scenarios generally have no money. They certainly have no internet connection to the Federal Reserve.
But then where do you re-invest those profits? That's the question. Holding them as cash is not really an option as inflation will devalue them very quickly.
