Felt like writing a Bit about what's going on internationally, like how the new crisis finally started rolling out during the latter week or so.
It's been in the making for a few years, and the corona virus has simply been what pricked to ballooning financial bubbles, "the everything bubble", as Wolf Richter calls it.
You do know that max 3-5% of what we call money is actual cash-value, with the rest being debt, created from nothing, with no real backing, don't you?
And now observe how S&P, DOW, DAX, Nippei and other indexes, stocks, bonds et al are crashing down, the FED trimming interests, and will trim more, followed by more funny money printing with no back-end value.
I've known this would come, but didn't manage to protect myself, meaning, buying gold, silver and others.
Those of you following places like kitco.com have seen how precious metals are racing upwards.
And the virus? No matter how, and from where/whom, it actually originated, just look at how it is being totally overblown in the controlled main stream media.
This ordinary flu season has claimed 16000+ american lives, out of some 345 mil just in this country - but noone writes about it - because it's quite normal, and can't be used as a political weapon.
Yet, the mere ~7500+ lives to the corona is being blown up as a pandemic, creating international havoc.
My country just basically was put in a state as close to marshal law as it gets.
'They' didn't manage to get a law signed-in allowing police to enter peoples private homes without warrant, though.
But they can fetch us 'on suspicion', and force us to vaccines - which are essentially untested.
Virtually all state/public services shut down, even our court system shut down! The latter never happens unless there's war or uprisings threatening the country (or state..) - read again: Close to marshal law.
To be fair, partial lock-down or at least serious info and measures is a good thing, and I wouldn't expect less, given that the virus still has no.. mmnn.. known cure as yet. Or rather, the cure that's been known up-front is still being held-back..
Stay safe, folks. We're entering a new crisis, and it'll be much worse than the '08++ crisis.
I'll stop here. It's middle of night and I can't sleep, so felt like pushing some bits'n'pieces of thoughts..
