Post WW1 Germans were millionaires! Didn't ypu guys see the pictures with people pushing around wheelbarrow full of money?

Odd-Block-2998

$40T is only 40 Elon Musks. We likely will start WW3 (all kind of wars) to prevent USD bankruptcy. Also start learning Mandarin now just in case, people.

Steel plants means WW3. Puts

Trumpy has two off-ramps, the June MOU or WW3. Pretty sure I know which he prefers.

Did WW3 start without me realizing? What in the world?

Covid was WW1 and the current deficit is WW2.

The problem is more that there’s just a lot of economic growth. There’s also some effect from corporate bonds around AI and data centers that are crowding out demand for debt related investments in the US. And less important in magnitude, there’s generally less demand for treasuries relatively speaking from foreign governments recently due to funding stuff related to Iran war stuff Also, this 20% inflation thesis is silly. A lot of countries have had their sovereign yields go up in tandem the last few months. It’s not an US specific phenomenon. Another way to realize that’s wrong is to just look at TIPS vs treasuries spreads…  Not only that, your presentation of post WW2 inflation is quite ahistorical Misinformation comment getting a bunch of upvotes, classic 

BasicError9043

I think it's quite simple. It isn't a functioning market. 40-60b in weekly 401k inflows to chew over. Brokers know retail positions and can trim them at will and pocket the cash ( noted exclusively via payment for order flow ). And when times actually do get tough and you have money leaving the market, they can just cannibalize one of their own firms. Also remember, government produces nothing so when they spend 2 trillion a year they don't have (USA) that makes its way back to businesses and consumers to dump back into the system. And if that fails the FED gobbles up the shit no one wants and everyone is made whole to keep it going. WW3, AI that doesn't make money but threatens the survival of humanity, 20% of oil and natural gas held hostage, crumbling infrastructure, birthrates below replacement levels, so on and so forth.... But markets are record highs. If you look close enough it's just a couple of players doing whatever they want because they have the perception of legitimacy.

In part, but a larger factor is the Big Beautiful Bill that the GOP pushed forward. It has a reckless amount of fat in it going to the upper 0.1% so much so it's exploding the deficit. The general belief is that the US can't raise taxes because it's political suicide, which is the only answer. Even if the corruption was removed so spending went down massively there still would be too much debt. It's not sustainable. This leads to the other solution, which is to intentionally inflate the currency to make the debt bearable. The US did this last time post WW2 to get spending under control. USD inflated 20% a year during this time in the late 1940s. Why buy a 10 year bond if within the next 10 years the US might have 20% inflation each year? Furthermore without raising taxes inflation just kicks the can down the road leading to an even worse deficit crisis. Who's going to trust buying bonds right now?

Due-Chipmunk-1335

Check my last few comments. the market will peak on Sept 29. China will invade Taiwan by October 7 at the latest, but I expect it to happen by next Friday. This is the last conflict that must occur before WW3 starts. I urge everyone to sell everything and put 20% of their portfolio in LMT and sell when it reaches ATH'S (by December). Hold the rest in cash. Likely buy gold starting in January 2027 (after the deflation shock) but that's not important right now. I dont believe anything else is safe. Also, DO NOT SHORT THE MARKET DURING THIS TIME. The market this year has been mimicking the 2018 market patterns (crash in feb-march, rocket up until late september, then crash from october to end of year). however during the october-december crash of 2018, the vix was actually stable. Plus when WW3 breaks out, it is certain the market will be closed for some time

jcpopm

The bond market is backed by the military? Is that you Donald? And I would DEFINITELY bet against the US military since it's in the habit of losing just about every single war since WW2.

SpiderWil

if America wins this war, there will be WW3 on who gets to take whatever country they want

Due-Chipmunk-1335

its the last piece that has to fall before WW3 kicks off in October/November. a US civil war will also occur, just not sure if that will happen before or after November. between the US midterm elections and the Israel elections, something big is going to happen prior to that

pumpkin1986

Can we just do WW3 already. Stop edging me humanity.

ur1z

with this one you can unintentionally start the WW3 from your home 😭

Surly_Furious

Japanese tried fire bombing a forest in Oregon in WW2

yeahyoubored

nothing ever happens market at ATH until literally WW3, not a moment b4 economic depression/recession will NOT be televised

DancinginHyrule

The ICC was created in the wake of WW2 and the Nürnbern trials. So yeah, people who have commited war crimes would have reason to not want to be part of the system that could hold them accountable.

Dr_Mar23

Trump’s awful leadership starting WW3, the worsening Diesel crisis, and the national debt is inching us towards to the cliff.

Tradechitown

Held to maturity I see no concern if you’re okay with that yield and maintain a diversified portfolio. But be aware that bonds fell for 35+ years after WW2 and we are in year 5/6 of rising rates. From the mid 1940s to 1981 we had massive military and entitlement spending that didn’t get under control until about 1974 and it took another 6 years for rates to stop rising. This is clearly not everything that happened during those time periods, but we’re up against a similar hurdle today. It’s a different story if you’re trying to catch a short term shift in a larger cycle but a 1973/74’ like downturn where stocks down bonds down is a possibility.

CurrentAirline9065

10 year had its 3rd biggest daily gain since WW2 yesterday

COMINGINH0TTT

Defense industry is also an enormous piece of the puzzle as SK has become a major player in arms dealing and with the world seemingly heading towards WW3 business is very good

Difficult_Fact_2849

There are a million better investments on WW3…but zero chance they invade another country without being provoked like in Ukraine when the US built 13 CIA bases on the border

Open_Advance9396

No I'm referring to someone who fought with the SS during WW2 against the Russians. Like he wore the actual nazi SS uniform.

Samjabr

I'm buying Calls for the end of the week. Meeting of the Donald and the Great Emperor has to be bullish, right... or WW3?

CEO_of_SOXL

🥭 is gonna place a Winnie the Pooh doll in Xi’s chair at dinner tonight. WW3 will commence

Brushy2287

In my late 30s here. I hate to say it but something big is coming; whether it’s another world war or financial crisis. I’d bet some sort of financial crisis over an all out WW3, and I’d guess within the next 3 years💯. I’d say the odds of the avoiding are very slim at this point, because unfortunately, this Admin. 🇺🇸 with the 🍊 idiot at the helm have been making careless and awful financial decisions this time around…WAY worse than the first time. But that’s just my opinion. I guess time will tell, huh?

No_Criticism_5861

Lol...  we have the slowest growing population now since WW1.  But im sure conservatives here will agree, because immigrants are bad in their mind...  yet, conservatives cant get enough migrant labour for minimum wage

2A4_LIFE

It’s all by design my dude. Run inflation hot and keep real rates way under, it’s financial repression to inflate away the debt. Same playbook as after WW2. Destroy petro dollar to weaken dollar to allow on shoring and build fortress western hemisphere. They outlined all this in not so few words in the American Security document released quietly on Thanksgiving evening last year. It lines out exactly what they are doing https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2025-National-Security-Strategy.pdf

Verix19

The very next story is how immigration in Canada is at the lowest point since WW2....🤷🏻‍♂️

Due-Chipmunk-1335

i feel bad for anyone that stays short during 🥭's meeting with Xi. market will top september 29. then WW3 happens on september 30

Due-Chipmunk-1335

market is going to peak intra-day on september 29. WW3 starts september 30. get ready evryone

Brave_Yesterday_6106

Hmm not bad bet.  You won't need that money if WW3 breaks out before then.

pandadrizzle

Next WW bout to be US vs errbody 😬

Syllabub_Visual

Are the hedge funds deliberately keeping spy flat and only trading on all the mango volatility during pre and after market so regards can’t get rich from options? He’s talking like he’s trying to get us into WW3 and the markets are flatter than regards on coke.

larry-the-dream

The shit he is saying is insane - he’s actively taking us to WW3

Due-Chipmunk-1335

market will top september 29 (6 years, 6 months, and 6 days after the market bottom on march 23, 2020). and WW3 will start on september 30

WW3 Then we moon

Rosebunse

We're gonna find out these losers were trying to do their own WW2 style crazy experiments, aren't we?

Psilonemo

1. Reduce military expenses of the American empire and embrace austerity. Take advantage of the withdrawal by selling weapons and military gear to Europe once again just like America did back in WW2. Cut costs and let European taxpayers foot the bill. 2. Contain Russia, but by all means let European nations pay the primary costs, meanwhile deal with Putin in the back so Russia still trades in US dollars for its own survival. 3. Pressure high maintenance allies like South Korea and Japan to also step up their own military spending and establish independent defenses just like Israel or Ukraine. Maintain all the benefits of shared intelligence and naval access, but withdraw all the obsolete, high cost garrisons which no longer matter in warfare. 4. Chokehold Iran, at whatever cost, to weaken it and set it back by decades but to also destabilize its social fabric and radicalize the psyche of its people down to a juvenile, revolutionary state, meanwhile block cheap oil access to China. 5. The cabinet gets their bonuses and payouts (already toyed with the stock market multiple times.) They can go down as villains but it doesn't matter, their reputation is in the gutter anyways and the Esptein scandal left a taint which will never go away. They all want to retire anyways so might as well go out with notoriety and inglorious noise. The true imperialists moving the money behind the scenes, the military industrial complex and its naval thinktanks, the black budget's benefactors like secret weapons programs and intelligence networks all get to operate without hinderance.

WW3 should be settled via a dance off.

The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking - read it. Phillip J Anderson. 18-yr land-credit-based crashes unwind. 2008/9 was ARM defaults, 1990/1 was savings and loan (old Bush remember?) Not sure if it’s to be 2027 or 8 but it’s late, possibly COVID screwed up the intervals……. WW2 screwed up the intervals back then ……Just amass some dry powder and DCA, 6 Mo a low will hit and we’ll be off to the races again.

AldousDikhout

One of the most interesting things I learned in a history of economic class, is that economic crashes are inherent to capitalism. Happening almost every 8-12 years. With some exceptions, like post WW2 period. We are definitely due for an adjustment. Would be a good time to plan for a future liquid position - sell high then buy low. I’ve been paying down real estate personally. That way there’s less exposure to interest rate hikes + You can always re mortgage your home if you see a good play.

Release the WW3 FUD Release the AI FUD Release the memory FUD Release the yield FUD *Nothing is working….the only thing that will work is this* Release the Epstein files

There is no end. This is the early days of WW3.

In America stocks always go up. WW3? Nobody currr the stocks go up

MfRiddetBannedMe

why gap up, WW3?

What has happened that is new besides the Houthis beating down the Saudis? Why people are saying WW3? Is Russia doing something?

BathingApeBape

So WW3 is about to happen and we’re pumping?

Why we up on potential WW3 news?

is WW3 cancelled?

Bers told me WW3 would begin over the weekend? Is it cancelled now?

Cool_Formal_7497

What is the market pricing tonight? Seems like whatever happens, it all goes up? Trump wins, up. Trump loses, up. WW3, up. Aliens, up. AI takeover, up. Inflation, up. Genuine question, what can trigger a selloff?

Where are ber? Ber thought WW3 coming lel, Never learn

WW3 confirmed over

vermilli21

Well WW3 should start in about 6 months after SPY hits 800 and we witness a crash

Ninja_Cooter

WW3 starting and futes green 🤪

Greedy-Relief8420

WW3 only starts if 2 nuclear nations directly fight another

Apple2o

Brother there is a proxy war between the US and Russia ongoing and people are still saying “if WW3 started” Like a million people are dead already

Greedy-Relief8420

I mean doesn’t it make sense that if WW3 were to be started l, it would be by this retard

Apple2o

You think France got rolled as hard as they did in WW2 because their leaders are rational? LMAO 🤌

Oil_Shock_2026

It starts with early childhood education. Pre-K. Also, nothing like a worldwide depression and WW3 to cull the herd and get a lot of people out of complacency and thoughtless comfort. War and a depression will shape people to be resilient and resourceful.

remilk123

:popcorn: so last night twitter was being spammed with 🥭 about to level Iran or the Houthis. Then nothing happened. The goal of his Camp David trip was to review options for striking targets, but after he came back last night, twitter was full of "IT'S WW3," "BOOTS ON THE GROUND," "NUKE," "CARPET BOMBING”, “ESCALATION NEVER SEEN BEFORE." MFS JUST WANT CLICKS FOR THEIR PROFILES :screech:

Danijust2

WW3 could start today that Monday the line would go up.

tiltldr

Just because they nearly started WW3 doesn't mean they won't shoot further towards the moon tomorrow.. just, the insanity of that on top of the current valuation though, it's bothersome 😊

abroadbroadband

If WW3 starts because of your naked body, you need to stay covered up SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN A ROBE

stopdropandrauljulia

The AI arms race probably has steeper geopolitical implications than average to stupid people are capable of grasping. WW3 might be an existential necessity.

abroadbroadband

WW3 ain't ever gonna happen, nobody's crazy enough to do it

Cybermeld

Feels like it is more the official kickoff of WW3, but we will see.

Neel_Crashkari

WW3 possibly happening for the 27th time this year

SomePolack

Nah no WW3 this weekend but I’d keep an eye on Russia in the next few weeks for sure

GildongHong551

WW3 will be AI fighting AI.

Dinos_N_Astronaughts

Because the U.S. wanted to be able to project force post WW2 and secure themselves better trade deals, access to resources and soft power. President Eisenhower wanted the U.S. to be the defacto and singular military superpower so that open conflict between developed nations was less likely, and none could challenge the U.S. on their own territory. He specifically encouraged the European nations to rebuild their economies and infrastructure and to leave the defense concerns to the U.S.

Optimal-Hospital-366

Canada were involved in WW2 from the start. The US sat on the side lines waiting to see who might win before joining.

selfemployedsince16

I think depression is increasing 50% in young people because we have lost the narrative. I too am working on discovering infecting my mind on false narratives. There is so much good to go around and it’s almost impossible to feel that way if you think the rich are evil. The companies and luxury infrastructure we have built out with systems like Amazon, DoorDash, google search, AI, the iPhone etc. really do make it so we are all living greater in most ways than the president of the United States post WW2 (golden age start for America.) I feel sad that people still feel like homes, healthcare and education/gainful employment is out of reach. We’ve come so far, let’s take a moment to take it all in. Then let’s get back to war on mass abundance!

The more you read about what happened prior to WW2, the more you see the Europeeners really never learned their lessons lmfaoooooo

It's so funny that we already have total economic collapse upon us and we don't even think of war that can happen any time now and ruin us all. Right at the centenary of WW2. Humans are truly walking amoebas.

2Blueify

Where is the part that you're replying when you don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about? Many countries did this in response to WW2 as the thought process was trade reliance would lower the chances of war. Uninformed uneducated people such as yourself should just shut the fuck up.

tbuitommy

WW III tomorrow? What's up with those way OTM PUTs?

flyingdutchmnn

Canada was always there for Europe since day one of both those fucking world wars, and liberated my country in WW2. The most solid partner you can find. Canada fuckin rules, this is awesome

Responsible-Meringue

It specifically says in the ”operations section" that central bankers recognized the innordinant liquidity risk and the glaring market bubble but failed to act and provide liquidity leading up to and throughout the great depression.   Also that through WW1, war-time politics were strong enough to prevent them from intervening with inflation despite massively increasing monetary supply. The only thing that kept US currency in check was EU gold inflows to US banks. Which kept the dollar backed by gold standard while the rest of Europe suspended the standard for their currencies.  After WW2 they said one thing and did the opposite. Despite setting T-bill intrest at 0.375% they continued to support government borrowing, sending the CPI to 14% in '47 and 8% the year after, and still refused to monetize the absolutely massive deficit. Truman fired the fed chair and then the 51 accord happened.  

International-Fig830

Trump treats people/ nations like shite and the lashes out when they ignore the psycho! I'm telling ya, he is going to start a real WW3! And the US will have many enemies!

reaper527

> Imagine if Reddit existed during WW2. i'd rather not. reddit would probably be praising literal nazis and permabanning anyone that condemend them.

StG4Ever

As a Belgian I have always been grateful that the Canadian army liberated us in WW2 even though the USA took all the credit for it. I have sympathized with the USA and their culture for long but since trump's second term he has turned the country into the bully of the world and isn't even pretending anymore to have allies, he considers other countries his serfs and dictators his friends. I fucking hate that asshole and all of his supporters with all of my heart. I welcome our Canadian friends into the EU.

macbowes

Imagine if Reddit existed during WW2. The doomers on here wondering why the stock market was going up year after year as the entire world was at war would have been hilarious to read. Global markets were down a whopping 10-15% from 1939 to 1941, then went on a heater. Markets were down mostly because labor was being redirected from profit making to war. This should be your barometer. 10-15% drop = global war. Conflicts less than that, are less of a drop. Basically, stocks go up, no matter what. The world is a big place, and most people are thriving at any given moment.

OkBox3637

It’s kind of crazy that you go back 1 lifetime and it’s WW2. 2 lifetimes and it’s civil war/slavery. 10 lifetimes and its medieval times. 1000 lifetimes and we are in dinosaur age. 10,000 lifetimes and the world didn’t exist at all

MaddogBC

This is the part I just don't understand. The US built a system to benefit the US after WW2. It massively benefitted the US and allowed them to far surpass every other nation. "Let's trash this shit and roll the dice on fading into irrelevance." Or worse yet international pariah. Shooting yourself in the foot honestly seems quaint at this point, we're amputating limbs and sizing up organs here.

AllCapNoBrake

Successful psyop's since WW2. We've been getting duped since then.
