Nothing is based on supply and demand anymore. The "market" no longer makes corrections. It's all manipulatable fuckery and the elite still wants you to believe that the stock market is stable. The big bubble burst will be money, and how it's abused/misused, not AI.
You can only manipulate for so long before the cards collapse
I do wonder if people can make direct food subscriptions with farmers and just bankrupt the entire corporate infrastructure one commodity at a time
K-shaped economy and all
They’ve made it so you will be left behind economically if you don’t slave for SP500 shares
eh, the SP500 is just the slot machine meant to real people in
real $ is on learning what individual tickers are really worth and trading on that
bubbles like this are basically just milking pensioners and whatnot who buy into the system mindlessly, when enough buy in and there's a catalyst to get peoples eyes on the screens (imo, trump finally croaking) so they can sell into it profitability the algo's switch to dumping, which'll then cause mainstreet to panic sell seeing half their retirement vanish overnight
It’s more than a slot machine, it’s the primary beneficiary of all the bad fiscal policy and wealth concentration. That and real estate. All the cool kids are hoarding it! Giving them selves cool loans based off the cool valuations they cooked up. Bond market is imploding and taking cash with it. Great time to buy SPY
but...considering the state of US labor/left, realistically crashes like they're setting up now are the plebs best bet on actually capturing some of that wealth for themselves, it's that or you jump like a monkey (sports) or record your misery (various arts) and hope your pain/suffering is entertaining to them.
