I mean

okay..

So 60's

you could work of your house after like a few years

today you look at 50 years to pay it off

the debt ratio is a consequence of trying to run a balanced budget

it's also why worker's share of gross income falls

It's an accounting identity, essentially, very similar to thermodynamics

the root misunderstanding is the role of banks, they are not intermediaries, credit emission is what adds to the money supply and aggregate demand

it's also what pushes down the interest rate which hurts anybody looking for fixed income, encouraging them to find exotic substitutes

yeah it's so fucked up..I am so angry I never invested my money.

not too late to ride another wave in the US pump

but I really wanted to be as close to debt free as possible when buying a house, but at some point you just loose money quicker than they build up

Fuck no, I havn't invested in like the 5 years I've been making money.. I am waiting for the fall

cycles and shit

you might be waiting a long time, don't fight the trend

people have been going bankrupt waiitng for that, shorting themselves into poverty

Isn't it lik ~10 years

2008

there was the it bubble end of 90s?

doesn't matter, it's an open ended system, you can have the real economy rotting while the markets pump

all you care about is the nominal gains in the market if you are trying to make money

I would say the US economy is already in recession, but that doesn't mean the market will necessarily crash

No I think I'll be doing what any right winger would be doing.

Prepping, gardening

I hate that system

You can do both

also trade against bots

don't trade against them, trade with them

THey automatically buy the dip

just wait until the liquidity adjustments of ETFs gets realized across the world

when you hear the phrase "free float adjusted weighting" in the news, then you can worry about things crashing

its like that subprime stuff?

it's very different, but it will have the same effect 'inside' the system, but not necessarily expressed in the markets the same way

it forms the base of a shaky pyramid

automatic purchases basically reduce the VOL, but becaue those funds need liquidity, they all buy the same stocks

so it compounds, and those major equities move the major indicies, etc

It's like pop music. it's popular because it's popular

not good for sweden even worse than the USA in that shorter period

95 was when sweden ran its last big deficit, then it's been hovering around 0, with the expected rise in household debt to gdp ratio
