Buy Bitcoin, Right?
According to Buddy, Goldman Sachs’s previous head of hedge fund sales, a majoity of the world’s possessions– from whatever from equities to products (however not Bitcoin)– are going into precarious area.
Buddy is presently charting a prospective yield collapse to -4% for the two-year U.S. Treasury, which would be an overall paradigm shift in financing. With rates going unfavorable in Europe and Japan, this isn’t out of concern.

The Product Index is likewise on the brink of brekaing through an essential assistance level, which might accompany a deflationary breakdown that is being shown in rate of interest.
Likewise, banks in susceptible areas– specifically Japan and Europe– are likewise supposedly teetering on the “cliff of death”, as the Bitcoin bull likes to call it.
And who might forget foreign currencies, which might quickly collapse versus the U.S. dollar.
While Buddy composed that these charts may be simply a coincidence, the truth is that an economic downturn might be developing. This, he states, need to be trigger for financiers to acquire bonds, dollars, diamonds, and, obviously, Bitcoin.
Sure, this might all be a coincidence. I would not bank on that.
Yes, I understand … Raoul is such a scaremonger (I suggest didn’t he call doom in 2012? Moron!).
Honestly, I do not care what the snarks believe.
This is a truth. Possibly it is THE truth.
Bonds. Dollars. Gold. Bitcoin.
