>The tariffs are on course to pay for themselves. Source? “Trust me bro.” As to your version of ‘do your own research, the call of the sea lion, I have and you’re wrong. I explained how you’re wrong, including citing sources. Pointing to the instability in Trump’s policies isn’t the win you seem to think it is. It’s funny, much ink has been spilled on whether Trump was “colluding” (a term with no legal definition, but which MAGA like to toss around) with Russia. The funny thing is, whether he was or not I can hardly imagine how someone working as a ‘Manchurian Candidate’ for Putin would act much differently. America sat atop the post WW2 world order, and Trump seems to think that is a bad thing, despite it making us the most prosperous nation on the globe, and is seeking to end said hegemony. Weird that some think this will ‘make America great’. The OBBBA is the worst of old school pork barrel legislation, drained pool politics, and represents a strong shift backwards to the days of robber barons. All while contracting the economy and massively increasing our debt at a really inopportune moment. Not only will it not pay for itself, but with everything Stephen Miller has going it’ll be a miracle if we don’t end up in a recession. It’s only been a few months of Trump 2.0 and the signs of underlying economic softening have already begun. We’d be seeing it in the markets if they weren’t essentially a casino these days. Fools have set this nation on a course for ruin, fueled by disinformation peddlers like yourself. I wonder, what is it you’re getting out of these lies?

I think you're optimistic we are entering the milkshake theory territory and people living in the US are being led into pre germany of WW2 to usher an age of war. I would seriously consider leaving the US if I was a citizen there.

7.29% today. NVDA will be lucky to gain that much more in a year. Might as well get investing advice from my grandpa. 20% stocks, 30% bonds, 50% buried WW2 gold.

Germany in WW1? Well yeah, Charlemagne and his foundation of the Holy Roman Empire basically encompassed modern France and West Germany. They were on the defensive side against Russia.

SomewhereAtWork

You will keep having green dildos visualizing huge gains in a increasingly worthless currency. But shortly before SHTF the regime will start a war and transition the country to a war economy, which will keep things propped up for several years. After loosing WW3 China and allies will create a new Marshall plan for the US, which enable IT to rebuild and prosper again within 1,5 generations.

It's coming. When Pax Americana ends you will see WW3. It's already starting.

Working-Math-9610

what if this.. what if WW3, what if China? 

Fuhnancial

Remember when tariffs were scary in April and possible WW3? +25% since then 🫡

Zannierer

Germany before WW1 possessed the least colony of all European countries that had one. That's why track record isn't enough. China wouldn't just spend that much on its military just for defence, although a war with the US is pretty unrealistic. Instead, they have been the most aggressive side on the South China Sea, have been and will be sure to do something in South East Asia as soon as some members fail to play both sides. It's rich of you to say that, sitting an ocean away with the most powerful armed force known to men playing superpower politics. Invaders are the same to us, Chinese, UK, Dutch, French, the US, Spain, all pose the same threat.

Snowedin-69

So when he does not get his front line news headlines from tariffs we should start get afraid of WW3.

Worried_Quarter469

That’s why we have WW3 on the schedule, to rebalance the labor market

No-Improvement3164

Have we seen Nutlick on the news since Muskrat ended up with a black eye? Last time I remember seeing him he was going to announce deal after deal the following week and that was prior to WW3.

Brokenandburnt

You do... You do realize that _the entirety of the European continent, Japan, China_ had **no** industry standing after WW2 right? Right? Only the US had a fuckton of factories and workers who suddenly didn't have anything to build, since they had been building war material. So you retooled your factories, made most favored nation status deals with the rest of the world, and made **BANK** on selling shit. Fair play, we needed help. But you got _immensively_ wealthy off of it. Both in cash and influence. Trump has pissed away 8 decades of World building in the US favor in 6 months. Gotta hand it to him, noone can bankrupt like 🥭.

Living_Cheek9355

because USA wants to annex Canada, and Canadians being proud and doing what is right is tell USA to fuck off. So the aggressor is punishing everyone in Canada until people cave. Classic aggressor/bully move. WW2 Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany did the same. Just a few months ago we need protection from Iran, today the real damage to ordinary people lives is from USA

You know your history? Nazism didn't gain power until WW2, and in WW1, every side is bad. China doesn't need a new, more brutal ideology. It criticises the US while screaming whataboutism when others criticise China for doing the exact same thing as the US. The neighbours of China don't just happen to coexist "for hundreds of years". They successfully defended themselves from the onslaught of various Chinese dynasties during that time. Those who failed to do so are now part of China.

Usual_Retard_6859

Thanks. That was a good read. Gave me some insight to what I already suspected and labeled it extraction economy. You see this in the steel sector. The old pre WW2 era open hearth tech that is used in the USA steel is still there because the industry didn’t want to go through the costly pain of shutting down to modernize. They instead opted for share buybacks and dividends that extracted capital out of the sector. Meanwhile other countries modernized and innovated and can now produce more steel at higher quality tolerances with less energy and labour. Trumps tariff accelerates the capital extraction. The companies don’t want to shut down when they’re making more money than ever before. It extracts capital from the consumer class and hands it over to the investor class. Something that article the didn’t touch on that is probably the greatest liberty that’s taken for granted and many don’t even realize exists is Americas ability to recover from mistakes. The post WW2 America had everything going its way. Winning in every way. When you’re on an upward trajectory like that you can afford to make some mistakes and blunders. Now with the rise of China a competitor is on the world stage. Mistakes and blunders are more costly. Sadly I see many mistakes being made. The erosion of soft power, threatening every ally, defunding of social safety nets, erosion of research grants, tariffs increasing costs of industrial inputs, The list goes on and on.

WW3 is bullish tho.

Zannierer

> They are growing their military assets in making nuclear ICBMs, naval vessels, jet fighters, cyber capability and they have the largest armed forces in terms of numbers of people. I swear the German Empire while rapidly industrialising and arming itself back in the days before WW1 said something along the line of we aren't imperialist like France or Britian who meddled in almost any continental affair or possessed the most colonies. Of course they said that while following the same principles, subjugating whatever free people left in Africa. Such a classic that China still reuses this argument to this day. Living in South East Asia really feels like that right now. China and the US with the sabre rattling, while you just know that the Chinese will go after your country first before firing any shot at the Americans.

GlorytoTaiwan

Simply not happening. The threat of invasion is grossly overdramatised by western media. The CCP doesn't want to get itself caught in a Russia situation of getting caught in a prolonged conflict that it likely won't lose, but neither will win. It would also destroy the domestic good will the party has built up after the numerous atrocities it committed during the communist era, while damaging external perceptions of China's "peaceful rise". The threat of social disorder and protests would also be a huge risk to the party in a time of social media and satellite imagery. The One child policy means many Chinese families would lose not only their only son, but their only child, and all for an invasion.... would be tough to sell as a patriotic duty. We all saw at the end of 2022 how zero covid began to bring people out on the streets to mass protest - it was no coincidence the party immediately U-turned on zero covid after 3 years of insisting how necessary it was. The party survives on opportunism and pragmatic reactions. If anything, the constant threats of invasion help solidify the party's legitimacy and builds nationalism - without having to commit to military action. The above is just assuming that it's contained to China v Taiwan. If Beijing calls on its proxies like Russia and North Korea to supply manpower, then welcome to WW3. The US, Japan, S Korea will be involved. Once US soldiers are in, then NATO is in too.

I'm 80% gold miners via FSAGX. YTD it's up almost 54%, so it appears that other people agree. The rest is a mix of BRK-B and cash. Gold is the most boring investment in the entire universe, so when it starts making moves of that magnitude, something is going south in Very Big Way. 80% gold allocation is probably overdoing it allocation-wise for most investors, but like Warren Buffett says, "Big opportunities come infrequently. When it's raining gold, reach for a bucket, not a thimble". I can't promise that gold/gold miners will continue to perform like that. But I suspect there are several reasons why gold will do better than average for the next several years. I wrote the reasons below down to show myself why gold would be a good investment. I can guarantee that they are worth every penny you paid for them. :-) So always think before doing. * Recession and the ZLB. The Fed rate is currently 4.3%, and the Fed on average lowers the Fed rate by 4-5% when a recesion hits. Which means that if a recession hits soon, the Fed rate will likely be at 0%, a condition economists call the Zero Lower Bound (ZLB), since the Fed can't lower rates below 0% using conventional monetary policy. When the economy is at the ZLB, Treasuries have a net yield of 0%, and often negative real yield. Gold becomes more attractive relative to Treasuries when real yields are low or negative. So demand for gold increases at the ZLB, particularly when real yields are negative and inflation expectations rise. (That one piece of trivia made me 40% * (large 6-figure number) in 2020 when COVID hit) * "Wars and rumors of wars": The world appears to be entering a period of heightened geopolitical conflict. Scholars such as Graham Allison have identified a pattern - termed the Thucydides Trap - in which rising powers challenge established hegemons, often resulting in war. Historically, such power transitions have led to major wars in 12 out of 16 documented cases. WWI and WW2 serve as the most recent examples, where Britain was the existing world hegemon which Germany tried to replace, only to be succeeded by the United States. Present-day tensions (Russia -> Ukraine, India -> Pakistan, Israel -> Iran) suggest the world is heading towards greater instability. Wars have historically triggered high inflation, driven by surging government expenditures, commodity disruptions, and economic uncertainty. In anticipation of such risks, some countries build up their gold reserves. Gold serves as a hedge against currency debasement, a store of value during crises, and a potential tool to defend a nation's financial system under sanctions or wartime pressure. The US recently weaponized the dollar against Russia. China and other nations noticed, and are actively working to de-dollarize their economies. That simultaneously boosts demand for gold and reduces demand for dollars. * De-dollarization. Due to the US "militarizing" the dollar, exporting inflation to other countries via the dollar, and other negative behavior, many countries are looking to get away from the dollar. As there are no other reserve currency currently ready for that role, gold will increasingly be used. * Central banks around the world are starting to increase their gold reserves due to debt + more volatile world. The era of fiat currencies could come to an end if a debt crisis ensues or a great powers war occurs. Demand for gold looks strong going forward.

Japan relies heavily on trade and high tariffs impact them disproportionately to most other nations. In fact high tariffs were what led Japan to entering WW2.

There's little chance that it will, at least in real terms. US stock markets have benefitted greatly from 45 years of ever-increasing federal debt. Government borrows, buys stuff, and eventually the receiver of those dollars buys stocks with them, which raises stock prices higher than they would be in the absence of that borrowing. It's a slower-burn version of the asset inflation we saw after COVID. This is why the stock market has continually gotten more overvalued since ~1980, and why even at the bottom of the dot.com, Great Recession, and COVID recessions, stocks were at worst fairly valued judging by Robert Shiller's market data since 1870. Hard to lose money when Uncle Sam keeps flooding the market with borrowed dollars. But the US is just about out of fiscal runway. Debt is high and heading higher thanks to existing spending + BBB, and the bond vigilantes are starting to gather their pitchforks and torches. At some point in the next couple years, possibly during Trump's term, the bond vigilantes will force Congress to switch from deficit spending to debt reduction. And the stock market party of the last half century will be over in a historic and painful way. The British had their own debt bubble, courtesy of WW1/WW2. When they finally had to start paying it off, their stock market stagnated for 3 decades. It also helped cost them their empire because it was too expensive to maintain, devalued the Pound Sterling by 44% between 1949-1967 and cost it its reserve currency status, and required Brits to endure higher taxes and austerity for several decades to pay down the debt. Britain ended up losing their global preeminence to a young upstart country that excelled at manufacturing called the US. The US is heading towards something similar, and there's no good way of avoiding it much longer. We're fast running out of road to kick the can down. Most investors seem blithly unaware of economic history, that this sort of thing has happened before, and that their lives are about to change in highly unpleasant ways.

Between this an Epstein, we may very well see WW3 this week as majority of the world goes "what's the point anymore"

Gallico_Marina

I would have answered WW3 a years ago but looking how Americans let fly all the current revival of 1940s Germany episodes, I think it will just be ignored as noise inbetween 2 episodes of the Trump - Elon telenovela.

If Trump loses WW3 sure he'll face consequences. Otherwise, how?

Charizard3535

So countries aren't allowed to make deals with each other now? Trump thinks he is emperor of the world. America, keep playing like this and you will become isolated like Russia did post WW2.

Gym_Noob134

Russia has hardly any modern kit, a dragon horde of rusting Soviet equipment, hardly any modern manufacturing capability, and very little innovation. China’s kit is overwhelmingly modern. Their manufacturing capability is akin to WW2 Russia. They’re innovating aggressively. You’re statistically misunderstanding China’s current capability if you’re still calling them a paper tiger. The paper tiger thing was so 2012. Even the pentagon has retired the paper tiger phrase. Speaking of the pentagon. For the 1st time **EVER**. The pentagon has referred to China as a **peer adversary**, and not a near-peer adversary. This was within the last 3 months. You’re over a decade behind on your Chinese capability knowledge. Catch up.

Gym_Noob134

Yes they do. China’s military ship building output is 232 times higher than America’s. They’ve built more ships in the last 5 years than America has since WW2. They also have access to over 30,000, commercial cargo vessels they can commandeer during wartime for supply logistics.

emperorjoe

And? China is a superpower or about to become one. They are directly opposed to the US lead world order and want to establish a Chinese lead world order. They want to conquer their neighbors. A war is coming, maybe not over Taiwan, maybe not even a hot war, either cold war 2 or WW3 is irrelevant. All capital investment in China is a complete loss. Even if the USA doesn't get involved in the conflict, there will be massive tariffs, sanctions, capital flight, capital restrictions.

WW3

JayPee216

40-80 years is about how long it takes. America was headed toward the end of the post-WW II prosperity cycle anyway, then we got Orange Julius who: 1. Strangled international trade (or maybe not, or maybe partly, no one knows from one day to the next) 2. Chased a huge portion of low-paid, unskilled labor out the country 3. Abandoned Europe militarily so they need to build up their own defense industry rather than relying on Raytheon and General Dynamics 4. Ballooned the deficit and debt. 4a. Did #4 in the least stimulative way possible, taking money away from people who spend every dollar the minute the get it and transferring it to people who will just add it to their stockpile of generational wealth. 4b. Ordinarily, 4a is not an issue. Banks don't make money sitting on deposits. They will put it to use lending it to somebody to build a business, except see #1 above. In 1935, the British Empire was the unquestioned center of the commercial and financial universe, and if 40 years backward was your analysis set, it would have been inconceivable that they wouldn't be forever. By 1945 the world revolved around the US and Britain was entering a long period of economic stagnation if not decline. Today, we are where the British were then. The short-term fluctuations are just math. Longer term, as capital leaves the dollar, the US is screwed.

Successful-Walk-4023

Probably up for a little. Risk assets are the flight to safety as the deficit continues to increase. Think the only thing that could bring the market down at this point is actual start to WW3 or a return to increasing rate of inflation due to either tariffs or a way to early rate cut.

I would disagree. Those low-skill jobs will be automated. We'll high skilled to work and maintain. After WW2 the US helped build Japanese infrastructure and look how they took off. It's pretty simple, invest in yourself. If you have a good job, you don't really need public housing eh.

If somehow peace is sustained I am going to have to tip my cap to him. However I have done a pretty deep dive into the tensions in the middle east unrest and .....shocker America is responsible for the Iran's nuclear program in the first place. Post WW2 America started "Atoms for peace" which Eisenhower followed by Technical training until 1967. In 1967 USA provided Iran with a five-megawatt nuclear research reactor, known as the Tehran Research Reactor, along with highly enriched uranium fuel for its operation. Then in 1974 U.S. and Iran reach a provisional agreement for the U.S. to supply two nuclear power plants and enriched uranium fuel. U.S. supports Iran’s plans for a full nuclear fuel. That was cool until Iran said we are done letting you run out country and the Islamic Revolution overthrew the government. Now America is doing damage control every few years and claiming they are saving the world LOLL And don't get me started on Haiti

IronyElSupremo

Japan hasn’t really had much of a defense industry post WW2 except for reworking U.S. designs, currently the F-2 derived from the F-16 and the F-15J. Now Japan is involved with the UK and Italy on an original 6th generation stealth fighter the GRAC. Believe Mitsubishi has and will complete all the contracts for fighter airplanes. Their army’s tracked vehicles are Euro or U.S. designs built by Japan Steel Works. Either way you could get exposure in a broad international or single country Japan fund with large caps. KDEF is more developed as Korean armament companies are now exporting and will likely get licensing fees to boot. Both countries build NATO-compliant

SpaceViking85

Oh, very much joking. But you're right in that we haven't experienced it on this large of a scale. But it's been simmering at least since the WW2 with the US concentration camps, the red scare shit with McCarthy hunting "communists" in the 50s, the fact that we didn't end forced sterilization until the 70s/80s, & Newt Gingrich making this extremist divisive form of political discourse in the 90s.

melasses

If the economy grows faster than the debt it’s manageable. USA having the reserve currency is a huge upside, I believe about 30% of the interest is effectively paid by the rest of the world. USA has in the past come back from 119% debt after WW2. But that time they had strong growth. The political climate is likely the biggest threat to The economy. If they continue on this trajectory I can’t see it end well. The fact that last amendment of importance was 50 years ago indicate a form of gridlock.

The problem is the advance in technology and globalization of the human race is at a constant peak. Until WW3 sets us back to the Stone Age or deletes us, every future government is going to be on the frontlines of a technological revolution they (and we for that matter) barely understand. A US senator from 1860 could never fuck the world us as much as a US senator from 2025.

I am definitely doomerish about the future, but not necessarily about those who will own assets. The post WW2 idea about relative equality and middle class is slowly disintegrating, I just don’t think that will be reflected in the stock market. Quite to the contrary.

3.5 more years of Trump destroying American democracy. Without the rule of law the market can not function. What are you going to do if your broker steals you shares if there is not functioning court to stop them. Why would people pay their bills if there is no court or law? Why would people pay their loans if there is no court or law? The market is in more risk now than it has been since WW2.

It’s specifically dropped below this 100 barrier after being well above it 3x. I’m no genius, but if history rhymes, you may want to look at the dates this happened before. Ultimately, you’re right, it’s not unprecedented. It just was simultaneous with the two largest pops and economic depressions since WW2.

1973, the year of the recession and therefore the post-WW2 boom ending. Great.

Ok I’ll be briefed. Amidst the Chinese Civil War, Imperial Japan, which already puppeted an entire Korea and Manchuria a decade prior, saw weakness and invaded China in 1937. Three years before WW2 officially started in Europe. Beijing fell. Shanghai fell. Nanjing fell. Half of China fell. 20 million lives perished. All factions in China agreed to join the coalition to fight Japan and eventually joined the Allies. Then Japan got bogged down in China for 4 more years and cannot push further inland. So they changed strategy and attacked Pearl Harbor, Philippines, Dutch East Indies, and other thousands islands in the Pacific, which didn’t help but bring US into the war and stretched their resources even further. In 1944-45, with help from Allies, China and USSR pushed hard on the mainland while, simultaneously, the US did island hopping in the Pacific. Then atomic bombs and end of story. So yes. They have all reasons to celebrate.
