Sad state the markets have become
Here is a conundrum.....suppose you could press a button and the following would happen:
- New fed chair, a la Volcker, raises interest rates to 12%
- Economy crashes and majority of fake zombie companies and most big corporates go bankrupt / bought out
- Tremendously high interest rates finally forces a massive scale back at federal level. Most entitlement programs are scrapped. Big political upheavals completely remake dem and rep members
- Banks become recapitalized as high interest rates attract depositors
- By year 4 or 5, real green shoots in economy emerge, lead by real profitable companies (manufacturing, etc)
- By year 7 or so interest rates have fallen to 5.5% and market is booming
- This sets us up for another 30 yr run of a real positive economy
HOWEVER, during the interest situation, Bitcoin falls >90% and although it starts growing slowly again, it never hits a ATH while you are alive....
Do you press that button? (I probably would)
reply
Absolutely! Bitcoin just becomes an asset not a lifeline.
Lots of pain would come with this option but the next generation would have a shot of at a much better life.

Honestly, I'm very worried.
