WW

IrishtrashPeter

Personally, I don’t really think Trump is a fascist (maybe those around him are) and I don’t find comparisons with Hitler or classic fascists accurate.  Trump seems like he has classic narcissistic or sociopathic personality disorder combined with age more than anything else. Classic fascists like Hitler, Franco, or Mussolini typically have strong beliefs and ideologies that define their actions and they usually possess a modicum of intelligence, personal discipline or courage. No matter what you might think of Hitler, he was clearly brave (WW1) and was above average intelligence. I don’t think any of this applies to Trump. He has no personal ideology, he’s not disciplined in any way and his mind wanders from one shiny object to another without hesitation.  Personally, I just think he’s doing whatever he needs to do to be in the spotlight and he doesn’t really care if the world burns down around him.

>The only option to bring prices down is literally a command economy. And that won't happen. You want to see how that works, look at North Korea. ...or the United States during WW2, when we were totally fine with bullying businesses to play ball. At the very least, it was a temporary command economy. The government told them what to produce, how much to produce, and how much to sell it for. The Office of Price Administration literally set prices across the entire country during the war. The US government seized control of many companies, including *Montgomery Ward* (a chain of retail department stores), along with several trucking and rail companies, and forced the ousting of many executives if they didn't want to play along. A lot of companies with ties to Germany, Japan, and Italy were straight up just seized by the government and many were run with appointed executives. Some factories even had military officers appointed to run them when the companies would not play ball.

very surprised that Anthropic completely changed the entire world economy. 48 hours ago, it was WW3.

Rock_or_Rol

I lost quite a bit waiting for semis to capitulate amidst an oil shock, crack spread, bond fire sale, open ai -30% anticipated revenue and rising Middle East/russo tensions as we chug along in a silent recession with upcoming midterms and an erratic president that is all but saying he’s going to engage in an existential war with our most formidable adversary since WW2 and are claiming they will sever global data lines and wipe out 5-10%+ of the global oil supply alongside decreasing ship capacity while Saudi Arabia is getting pounded. I just.. got damn. Line go up?

Yeah, people are still falling for the WW2 bomber fallacy aka survivorship bias. You should probably buy the platforms with the terrible ads, they have so much more room for growth.

This would be a betrayal of all the free sovereign world and humanity itself. To call it tragic just doesn’t describe how absolutely abhorrent such a decision would be. It will not only mean the death of Ukraine, but it will permeate and decay the very structure of daily life in all of the west, especially in America. Life in America would fundamentally shift for the worst like never before seen. People that can’t see the bigger picture past Ukraine need to understand it would be like passing the event horizon of a black hole and akin to what life would have been like had we lost the last WW, complete and utter hell for all.

Master_Slide7023

Also WW3 or the End Times in The Bible might happen.

TastyCalligrapher421

Russia is close to the battlefield, their assets are all located in the western-most sector of the country. This war would be in the western Pacific, similar to island hopping campaigns of WW2. China will be fighting what is essentially a multi-front war - the invasion of Taiwan, Phillpines/Japan, and islands in the South China Sea.

We are stuck in s WW 2 mindset and the contractors know it. Air superiority use to be the whole game. With cyber and drones on the board now, we need to rethink our strategy.

WW3 has been a few months away since 1950. Humans love warring because it usually helps the leaders at the cost of the poors

Let’s be serious. The US was so outlandishly overpowered compared with the rest of the world that we basically did things the American way. Same thing happened after WW1.

Thatcher_Is_Mommy

The US along with the allied nations agreed after WW2 on laws of war. Everyone has since followed those rules except the US and Russia, so please tell me again why we shouldn't critique you on the rules you helped write, agreed to and then repeatedly broke, causing massive problems for not just yourself but everyone around you too.

Dr_Bluntsworthy_ThC

President's party almost always loses seats in the midterms, regardless of party. Q4 of a midterm year and the following two quarters are almost always massively positive. Never been negative since WW2. The opposition party gaining ground and causing gridlock is historically bullish for stocks and there is a lot of data to support this.

Who would have thought WW3 would be like, US: “The strait is open.” Iran: “No, it is closed.” US: “Nu-uh.” Iran: “If you hit me again, I will destroy every asset in the region that is worth x million dollars. I will sever your underwater cables. I will destroy the world oil supply. I’m sick of this shit.” US: “Look, we won. It’s over. We’re trying to get a deal, but we did the regime change and stuff. They have no navy. We have air dominance, which is why we don’t fly around there now. We won like 30 times already. They’re begging for a deal. We’re sending more troops and ships for after the midterms. I mean, maybe we do maybe we don’t. Who knows? Maybe I’ll do martial law. Vote for my stupid and ugly senators, lol. Oh shit the bonds! I mean, oil is coming down *very* soon.” Israel: “we will scour Lebanon, scorch their earth and set up outposts for settler colonization like we did in Gaza. Ah shit, did I just say that out loud? Who cares? We must defeat Iran, they are a threat to me, I mean.. regional stability and the world and MAGA.” US: “we are sanctioning the ICC. Europe used to be cool, but now look at them. They have an agenda to get Israel because they’re overrun with Marxist jihadists! We’re going to buy Russian oil now.” Bibi: “hey 🥭, I know you’re like underwater with voters and all that, but I kind of need the threat of Iran and a continuation of war to keep my own domestic court from prosecuting me or getting challenged in the middle east’s only democracy, so.. can you just kinda keep keep the pressure up?

A fraction of what we were buying. Who do you think pays for starlink? EU. Missiles? EU pays for US made and donates EU made. Weapons? EU buys US made and donates EU made weapons. Troops? They need money, not troops. Helping Russia? North Korea, Iran and USA. You got us there. Just like in WW2 you are making money while others are doing the actual fighting and this time there is no Japan to force you to fight. And the only thing you are proving that your government, US companies and US weapons and services are unreliable and EU needs to build our own.

Europeans can actually afford the US imperium far less than Americans can. Don't forget it was a joint project of the US elite and the European elites (as junior partners, sure) after WW2. Now it's overextended and trapped in the logic of hegemony that created the conflict with Russia. Americans have more confidence to say it's hurting then and turn it down because they know the power in the relationship. Europeans as the junior partners are petrified because they are addicted to the feeling of superiority that comes from being part of the world-controlling alliance, even if their part is to be bitch slapped whenever DC feels like it. They know it's not a long way down to being Guatemala and like all humans their behavior is acutely dependent on perception of status. You not getting that perceived status is all that matters to them is what they call ignorance.

Playful_Baseball_672

If you support a country after a disaster it is called being a good human being. The US helped rebuild Japan and Europe after WW2 making the world better for everyone involved.

metricfan

Americans have prolonged this war, thus resulting in more deaths. We’ve funded the genocide in Gaza. We have somehow become the world police despite not winning a war since WW2. Everything our country touches turns to shit. So idk why anyone wants our involvement, and why is it exclusively our responsibility? Our war machine is the federal government’s entire priority, and our own citizens have zero safety net. We let people die on the streets. We drown our people in medical and student loan debt. And the 1% dictate our lives. Like what on earth do you want from us? And what is your country doing to help Ukraine?

They’ve been monetized since childhood. All of that is avoiding hyperbole too..

h_lance

I strongly agree with Europe not being dependent on the US as a rational strategy, but let's be realistic. He'll be gone soon and you have plenty of shitheads too.   Up until the end of WW2 Europe had plenty of dictators and colonial powers.  Spain and Portugal were right wing dictatorships until the 1970s.  Almost everything east of the western side of Germany was a communist dictatorship until the early 1990s.  European colonies had to fight wars of independence as recently as the 1970s; in fairness independence hasn't worked that well for them either. The US was a major force behind all of the international law and human rights stuff in the aftermath of WW2. Since about the mid-sixties America has been fucking up in various ways and, frankly thanks to America to a large degree, Western European countries have both enjoyed prosperity and social democracy and, for absolutely the first time in history, not been involved in constant wars against each other, invasions of potential colonies, or been in constant internal political turmoil.   That's Western Europe, Eastern Europe still has dictators who poison dissidents with polonium and an ongoing major internal war. You're not special.

>I disagree, our economy and military is still the largest by a big gap largest but you can't build any new bloody ships while China is pumping them out like it's almost WW3

Rock_or_Rol

The parallels between the US and Russia are interesting too. Early 20th century Russia was a massive geopolitical figure after defeating Napoleon 100 years earlier. They were kind of the dirty cousin country doing their own thing before then. The newly respected giant was absolutely humiliated by the backwater country of the time, Japan. There was increasing state censorship, political upheaval, a feckless duma, growing worker unrest, the centralization of capital amidst their industrial age etc. Hopefully we don’t get to the WW1 phase. Things got a lot worse very quickly 😅

InHaUse

If you look at past history, and especially emerging markets, it's not the end of the world. The U.S. did this post WW2 btw with inflation around 13-15% for however many number of years. Just own some gold and you'll be fine.

Constant_Ad_8028

Only thing to "wait for" is the tech bubble to pop. That thing is at its maximum expansion for large gains with the inflation as high as it is. If I were to make a bet, I'd rotate some of that capital into commodities. Hold on to whatever you want or like, but I'd kick the bags onto the next guy and call it a day with them and maybe buy them back for even cheaper somewhere down the road That is if I were gonna make a bet.😉 Tech is priced to absolute perfection right now, and the second this overhyped bubble pops, your precious portfolio is getting absolutely nuked. Meanwhile, commodities like oil and gold are on an absolute tear because WW3 fears and supply chain chokeholds are making real, tangible stuff worth a premium. Rotating your capital out of soft tech into hard assets is the ultimate inflation hedge while the rest of the market watches their purchasing power get incinerated. Stop buying imaginary future tech cash flows and start buying the actual stuff making companies filthy rich right now. You got large superpowers trading and buying each others oil right now. That tells me that they're trying to not have everyone panic as the shortage in oil might be worse than they're letting on. Drop the hype, drop the bag.

WW2 hurt a lot more than just Americans but that is what it took to defeat fascism the first time. I think we can handle an economic downturn if it defeats it a second time.

Carlose175

I think deep down that's the strategy, its how the US got out of its WW2 debt.

ObservationalUnit

If we get hyperinflation there are a few historical periods and countries that we could look to as models of what to expect. Perhaps the best of them would be the Weimar Republic, which had Post WW1 and Pre WW2 difficulties to cope with. Hyper inflation destroyed the bond market. Equities soared. There are other examples, but essentially once the underlying currency becomes devalued at a rate far surpassing the rate of the bonds they are worthless. Trump and Bessent keep floating the idea of getting out of our debt with inflation. That would be a pseudo default which would make bonds worthless. All the printed money usually goes into the hands of the party in power and their close contacts. That money usually ends up invested so that it does not immediately lose value, thus further pumping equity markets. You can look at Argentina, Venezuela, Turkey, and Hungary as other examples of how hyperinflation debases the underlying currency and causes equity markets to explode in trade value outpacing inflation. I have long been operating under the assumption that Trump Administration Part 2 would cause hyperinflation and am betting big on tech companies because they lobby ungodly amounts of money for their AI play. As you can see they're pretty much holding the S&P 500 holds up. The thing I don't know is how it will play out when the global reserve currency experiences hyperinflation, as it will have much much larger ripple effects than these previous cases. Energy cost is capped because at a certain price lower scale economies will just be priced out. Which would remove a lot of demand. IMO. I also am a big believer that the only reason we rely on fossil fuels so much still is because of the status quo, not because of our lack of meeting base load capacity other ways which would drastically reduce burn rate of remaining fossil fuel reserves. Who knows, maybe it prompts an energy revolution finally. All the money I talked about sloshing around above can go into that.

There's not really a path out of this for the US that doesn't involve massive social and economic changes the country doesn't seem capable off, and the post WW2 abundance that they enjoyed is probably never coming back.

Probably something safe that isn’t at any kind of major downside risk like Proctor and Gamble or NextEra. PG owns so many everyday items I doubt they couldn’t come out of WW3 without a cargo ship full of bandaids and diapers for both sides. NextEra (NEE) also owns the cash-cow of Floridas entire power grid and have so many renewable assets they would be difficult to have any incoming threats for energy production. Again, WW3 and I’m still going to be paying NextEra for my single lightbulb.

GE is the WW2 of wars, every idiotic analyst compares current wars to WW2. Just because it can look like WW2 doesn’t mean it is WW2. WW2 and GE are unique circumstances and shouldn’t be the standard for how wars or stocks are evaluated. They are the outliers, not the norm.

He didnt just say it, its proven that Russia is supplying solid rocket boosters for north koreas nuclear program, also showing them how to build and maintain nuclear reactors and sharing technology for manpower for the special military operation in ukraine. They (north korea) are also making drone bodies for geran-2/Shaheed's and sending 122mm artillery shells to the front line in Ukraine in exchange for food and rubles. Russia and China are also sharing satellite imagery and reconnaissance with Iran, and sending humanitarian aid, BRICS is a thing and thier goal is to destabilize the west and remove the dollar from dominance. You are witnessing a WW2 event of the rise of the axis in real time, all while the idiot piloting the USA is too dumb and ignorant to anything around him except for manipulating the stocks he owns while also renaming everything after himself. Russia is a terrorist organization, sending USD to Russia for less tha. 4hrs supply of diesel fuel is a slap inThe face to the late senator Lindsey Graham, and openly admitting that killing innocent Ukrainians is fine. Putin is a war criminal, a fascist dictator, and he is trumps idol and best friend.

“Trump announces WW3. Market expected to zero out.”

rithsleeper

Alright so I’ll try to not be too detailed. Text isn’t exactly the best way to interact and discuss. I also saw your other comment. First, at no point have I attacked anyone’s character and I find it very disingenuous anytime a democrat pulls the racist card. Assuming simply because I don’t want an open border becomes a race issue is not engaging with me in good faith at all and if there was ever something I see done consistently on the left, it’s the virtue signaling and “poisoning the well”. I live in a community that is 47% black and 59% minority. I have taught at a school that is 30% white and rest minority. One of my saddest days last year was a student named Ann Christie had to move to Canada because her visa was revoked. I spend hours with this girl teaching and working with her for 2 years. She appreciated America so much because she grew up in Haiti and told me stories of literally stepping over dead bodies to walk to school. Her father and mother didn’t speak much English but worked at the chicken processing plant. They both were contributors etc. that’s the story I sympathize for and was/am very frustrated at the trump admin for. Her family did it LEGALLY and I don’t understand why she should have been sent away. Luckily she is living in Canada and sends me a text every couple of months checking in. However, as a country we can’t let the amount of people in unchecked that we did under Biden. 1M a year is acceptable, but not what even the their own administration reported. That is simple economics. If I addressed each issue you took issue with I’m not sure it wouldn’t end in a back and forth forever. Like Jan 6th. We would be tit for tat about “but what about”. My algo is feeding me violence and condoning violence on the left. Seeing people laugh at the death of charli kirk, antifa taking over city blocks, riots that I just say “how is this helping?” I’m sure you don’t condone violence for political gain and I find the violent portion of Jan 6 to be unacceptable. The non violent? I find it to be very acceptable. That’s freedom of speech. I think you’ve read my first comment when I said “I value more than others”. I didn’t mean specifically values. I meant there is always going to be give and take. The border is a perfect example. Do I value human life? Absolutely, but I understand if everyone piled in, we would end up eventually like the countries all these people are fleeing. Do I think trump has values? Uh…. No. I think he does what he wants and it’s why I said multiple times, I thought his extremism was what would wake the dems up that their extremism (you don’t sound extreme, I’m referencing the people who cheer for death, and the entire woke ideology.) So take all what I’ve said and I don’t want to start a new chapter, but instead focus on the subjects that bother me the most. One is the fact that the bottom 50% contributed 3% of taxes. Even if going up to 60% moves the needle to 12%, it’s just not sustainable. I see it every day teaching. A kid actually needs something and their parents won’t get it, then turn around with a new pair of shoes, or a bag full of candy, etc. or even middle class students will complain about not making ends meet and go on their 3rd Disney vacation of the year, but yet are still receiving food stamps. I don’t think as a society we align anymore because of the disparity of the cost of living. I don’t think trump is doing a good job to fix it. He’s using democratic tactics of inflating away debt because end of the day he’s been a democrat his whole life. Where I live, there are good jobs available. Specifically continental tire. My house I live in is 1400sq feet and I could sell today for $120k. Perfectly affordable. Food is outrageous no matter how you see it. But when I was on the NYC trip with my students we rode the train through NJ and I pulled up Zillow. Absolute run down poop holes going for half a million dollars. Watching house hunters in NY and CA is just as ridiculous. 1M for a 3 bedroom. But yet they are Dem controlled places that have policies that push prices up. The war I’ve already said I thought that was a bad move. I think we need to become isolationist for a decade though and “see how you all like things” so the rest of the world appreciates what our country does for the rest. THIS is where I like trump. He’s holding other nations accountable. He’s calling out the BS of other countries not paying NATO their share and then saying we will match your Tarrifs. Is it ridiculous “well if I can’t play with your toy you can’t play with mine”? Yes. But it’s been going on for so long and we’ve played ball long enough. US could have leveraged our card so many times since WW2 but we chose to police oceans. I hate Neocons but do understand how we have secured shipping lanes for open trade for 100 years and other countries are getting comfortable. I really like how trump is dealing with China and “America first”. I don’t think our budget for military is good. $90k for a bag of bolts. But that’s both dems and republicans. I’m on a tangent though. For me a broad spectrum overview would be, every time I hear some crazy woke ideology, it’s from the democrats. It just makes me question their sanity. I see corruption in both sides (can I say that? Apparently not). Bidens auto pen, denial of his mental acuity, the constant virtue signaling without any context. I know a lot is just our algos pushing dissent but wow there are some whoppers that I can’t wrap my head around and refusal to condemn. Most of it social. I’m just telling you why I voted trump, not defending anything he has done. I’m ready for a Marco Rubio, I’m sick of how trump continues to “poke the bear”. It’s just like dude just stop. But I already said that.

This is the main reason why I would never want a permanent residence in japan. Japan is literally surrounded by enemies. If we ever have a true WW, japan is donezo.

Germany was >!dicked!< from the beginning of WW2. Russia went from having 1M troop to 7M troops within a year. Then they had 3.8M square miles of the USA shipping tanks to Russia By 1943, Russia had won the war, but the late 1944 British/USA invasion was kind

Do you have any idea how hard it is to drop s&p by 50-60%? Even if WW3 breaks out, or someone drops an A-bomb market may not drop that much.

There’s 10 rules to stock trading. 1. Buy high, sell low. If you do that right, you don’t have to worry about the rest. Facetious, but genuinely that’s all there is to it. WW3 risk, rate hikes, bond fire sales, crack spreads, rampant inflation, erratic political action, rocketing oil, risk as far as the eye can see, torpedoed revenue/growth from the AI flagship, circular financing, blatant market manipulation, currency manipulation, disposable income rapidly declining with the economic class that actually spends instead of parks it, fake earnings, tariffs, sanctioning our allies… it’s all bullshit. This market reacts to uncertainty like it’s a good thing. We’ll crash on 🥭 threatening EU tariffs for Greenland but chop up between rate hikes, historic crack spreads, oil shocks, diminished economic activity and ridiculous inflation. The only thing propping it up is us.

Russia isn’t taking Ukraine. It’ll most likely be a partial land deal at some point. That’s what Russia has been offering for a year. But Ukraine understandably doesn’t want to give up any territory nor disband their military (another hilarious request by Putin). They will be forced to give up land at some point. Most credits during wartime work the same way. You give help and in return you get priority right to rebuild industry at low cost. So you’ll have American industry and products profiting immensely. That’s exactly what the US did during and after WW2.

People live in the most peaceful prosperous time in history and talking about how it’ll all collapse. What would people like you have done during WW2 or the Cuban missiles crisis? Just go lie in a ditch waiting to die?

There was a guy named John Frum who crash landed a cargo plane on Vanuatu during WW2. The locals thought he was sent by their ancestors so they worship him to this day. Elon's just the modern iteration of that for people who read too much science fiction.

Fun. WW3, I only had this picnic thing going on and tennis. War sounds interesting
