Been a great month for me. Wonder how all those people who laughed at me for predicting a crash march->april are doing? I got it a week off guessing a month off, not too bad. This is shaping up to be more dramatic and severe a drop than I predicted. The economic turmoil for the next few month...

Here comes the daily influx of cash. More announcements that now is the time to buy into china. Now is the time to buy into the stocks. I think today it will stick for sure. +100-150. Is my guess. If it evaporates again, the panic selling is real and a lot of financial institutions will have...

The markets were about 15% overpriced or so, so everyone knew a correction was coming, but the sheer strength of the economy made it unlikely even with all the credit nonsense. The virus popping up was practically a gift and making this possibly the easiest slide ever to predict. I didn't think...

Not too surprising, tech, service, and european stocks are generally set up very bad for this current situation. I wouldn't be surprised if a few companies effectively vaporize into the wind. I was expecting a 20% drop like I mentioned a month ago over march and april targetting a 23-24k buy in...

Welp, that wave of cash went up in flames pretty fast. Banks calling for people to rejoice and put their money in stocks now because this is just temporary and other such attempts to find money to escape on. I think the slide might be here a week early.

There is no evolution without consequence, and modern medicine removes a lot of consequence for a lot of inferior genes. The fact that he claims that negative genes that aren't negative with medicine are spreading and claims it is proof positive of it being positive evolution is dubious at best...

China dumped a lot of money into their market to try and prop it up and as always some of its seeping our ways. It'll probably work for today a little. Like I said, I expect a bounce back some this week. Perfect time to invest my dear friend. You got it figured out.

Fidelity decided to have some "technical issues" today and people couldn't log in. I'm sure there clients will be fully understanding that these things just sometimes happen now and then on a crash day. There might be one random lawsuit at the most. As bad as it looks over here, eurozone is...

1000$ call on tsla through march? Seems like an easy way to burn 54$ for nothing.

TSP is slow as fuck, you should work to roll that shit over to a vanguard or some other 401k plan as fast as you can. Order executed friday is going to go into effect tonight. And I explained my prediction of the financial fallout here almost a month ago. Who holds most of the retirement money...

Still looks like volatility to me. Probably will be a bounce through the week for people who haven't cashed out while it was hot. Staying past this week is definitely entering the danger zone. I didn't predict the slide until march, but we are entering a phase of uncertainty where nobody can...

Fed has stated they are trying to pull back on those injections in the repo markets and published a reversal to the liquidity starting monday this week, though I haven't checked if they actually did it. In reality, the liquidity problem there just funds very bad behavior, and freely funding it...

As predicted, volatility is continuing and the markets are shuddering. I don't expect the slide to start until march, so you naysayers may have a week to get out still. High leverage and weirdness in the credit market could finally boil over and pop for a very dramatic decline suddenly at some...

The liability will be intense, and the need for all cars to fully cooperate and follow the same rules will also have to be enforced. There's a strong probability that the endgame for automation to actually work will be through government management and regulation. I'm sure it will happen...

The main factor that will make it impossible to implement self-driving cars for a long time is black neighborhoods. If you've ever driven through one, you know what I mean. It's okay when they run each over other, but the fact that robots would start running them over? Too much liability and...

I'm not doubting you at all. I just used it as an example of how money is irrational. Tesla has hideous paper fundamentals for its stock price, yet shorting it is indeed a very bad idea. It's a great example in that the true fundamental for this stock is Elon's fanboys, not anything the company...

I think you're safe to sit atm rate wise. For the greater market, Housing as always will remain strongly regional. Depending on where you are, the answer could be hugely different. Even if there is a major recession, home prices don't necessarily go down in some areas. Texas home prices remained...

Depends on how deadly and widespread it ends up being. Less than 1% of US dying likely wont have much of an effect on housing prices. Greater than 1% could decrease home values in some urban areas. Greater than 5% will likely reduce home prices in some areas a lot concentrated toward urban end...

All stocks, money and investment instruments are perceived value, it is the very definition of money, though we often forget it. Take Tesla. The stock is retardedly overpriced. I looked at it the other day, and if they continue their revenue growth, the stock may be at a proper P/E ratio in...

I just don't get it. The bees have two paths to choose from. Just like I said, just like the paper says, and just like you say. Proper tests have ONE path to the reward, which is opened or closed based on actions between question and reward. The bees are solving how determine the correct path...

The fundamental shakiness is definitely much more apparent in the Eurozone. I think they're entering the stage where they really need to release on some regulations and invest in putting some industry back in the euro through subsidy in order to reverse the greater trend. Even germany is...

Vienna sausages are really just not that good. Spam is the god tier canned meat. Especially if you fry it quick on a pan. Make sure you don't clean the pan and pour the juices on your rice for maximum calorie intake. 1 can of spam eaten every 3 days should be sufficient to keep a low activity...

I do think a liquidity crunch is the most likely outcome leading to a market crash. Historically markets have been the most reactionary of investments, and the speed of them now only makes that far more extreme. There are a lot of companies, especially tech ones, with absurd valuations. We've...

There's no situation in history to really compare the current happenings too. The fact that all this money dumping seems to be causing artificial inflation in some areas and not in others is likely not permanently sustainable. It feels like the governments are trying to force a bit of inflation...

If you're worried about what the state thinks about your choices in the apocalypse, you aren't gonna do well prepping.

I think its reasonable to have a month of water and 2 months of food at all times regardless of the situation. Past that, expanding your cache to include a year of dirt cheap food that will provided the minimum to live for a year, that is also not terribly expensive. Rice and beans are cheap as...

I think it could be argued that the bees in this study are smarter than you. At least they'll produce an answer, however they got it.

Notice what I said. This test has divided paths and the bee chooses the one with the reward. There is at best scientific correlation to the choice of path, and that is weak at best... Allowing two paths for two choices opens up a massive window on the bees learning to overcome the test with...

How is that math? Single celled organisms can make similar choices. Going for reward instead of the path with no reward is the fundamental premise of life succeding. Extremely stupid.

My personal belief as stated is that this will be a slow slide recession that draws out a few months. Slow panic with lots of authority figures trying their best to prop up the losses. European stocks and raw material industries/utilities will likely be the hardest hit. Europe in general is ill...

Pretty well established that the disease is worse for old people and they have a lot of the money. I expect a lot of panic'd selling in april and may. Hard to know when the right time to dive back in will be, but I'm glad I did the math and got out before everyone else. Prepare for a super ugly...

Bought enough beans and rice for a year, got the supplies to turn one of my closets into a water tank. Filters, rain catchers and bleach to keep it as sanitary as possible. Restocked my ammo up to 1000 rounds and got a long rifle already, with a night vision scope on order, lots of 2 mill...

The corona virus definitely will have an affect on stocks. It will affect the fundamentals at the very least by greatly hindering international trade and the movement of people via quarantines, regardless of if it kills a lot of people or not. This will certainly have some negative financial...

Vegan food is probably really really hard to impossible find. Vegetarian light is extremely easy to find, and its best to let your friend believe this is actually vegan food, since it will have the appearance of being vegan and most locals wont know or be able to explain the difference if your...

How the hell can you have trouble justifying HSA spending? You can literally spend the money on vacations if your job makes you too stressed and a doctor recommends you relax more... or home upgrades you say are disability related... The justifications are so easy to make you have to be tarded...

I thought that scene was gratitous and sums up why the current movies suck.

I recommend a house in the range of 40-50% of the loan you get approved for. That said I put about 50% of my income toward retirement, so my financial advise is difficult for most people to follow. Either way, Lie to your women and fake a lower amount than you can really get if boobs are...

Yes, buying a house should be a calculated decision based on the financial facts of your area. Where most people go wrong is they let their woman pick. Women are stupid with money mostly because they typically don't calculate anything past if something is possible to buy or not.

All of your concerns are valid, and have been raised by me as well. It's situational to each person which is the better choice. Generally, if you live in one place more than 5 years, I would advise buying a house that is easily affordable. If you stay in one area for 10+ years, buying a house...

Yes, that is why its important to live within your means. You will have living expenses no matter what, but only a house allows you to regain a large part of your losses when you leave, effectively turning your habitation into a savings vehicle. That is a massively better investment than...
