SPX 2008 Analog
Will they let it crash?
If so, nothing will be safe, not even Gold or Bitcoin. Cash and shorts only.
TLT is down 20% YTD. TLT is DOWN on a week where GDP printed -1%. That is very unusual and dangerous for US markets.
If they let it crash, US Treasuries will nominally default - as tax receipts collapse with stocks, the US Gov would have to drastically cut defense and entitlement spending (haha yeah right).
The system is coming unglued, and the amount of MONEY PRINTING required to save it and fund the USGov is astronomical. THEY WILL PRINT. It is just a matter of how much PAIN markets will feel before they do. It could be a lot.
