Quote from: Bauer on April 10, 2025, 09:30:15 PMThe economist ran an article that financial system was approaching the brink of collapse.  Essentially the simultaneous decline of stocks and treasuries signalling that there would be a flight to cash, instead, and therefore another liquidity crunch.
Yes.

Everything points toward 2008.

I've regain a bit of my losses.  I forgot I had a shitty american fund in my portfolio. Was wondering what was dragging me down so much.  My international porftolio contains 25% American stocks and I can't change this, it's locked.  <_<   Reducing risks apparently only increase the % of American stocks.  :hmm:

Just wait until earnings reports start to reflect tariffs reality.  It will take months, companies have been stockpiling resources, but eventually that's going to hammer the markets.

I feel bad when I see stories like that.

I keep seeing them since Trump was sworn in.

On the one hand, I know people shouldn't invest money they can't spare.  Especially when it's shorting assets, triple that rule if it's on something super risky like crypto assets.

On other hand, I may have become a bleeding heart liberal and I can't help but feel empathy for these people:
QuoteLost it all
Learn from me. I had three shorts opened, 1500$ each, half of my savings for apartment, ready to finally have my turn. It was so obvious it will drop, new huge taxes added by China and everything. Then boom, 90-day pause, all shorts liquidated, 2 year of my savings gone in an instant. It's over for me man, i fell horrible and lost all hope in myself. NEVER get in to this position and never be sure or take risks while this clown is running the markets. Don't be an idiot like me.

Stories like this are much more convincing for me to maintain my boring ass investing strategy than the stories of the few people who strike it big.

Yep, I feel sorry for people who fall for the line that they should try to time the market.
