Just a thought for you-

Easily acquired in the US and has had value for centuries.
Turkroaches just hijacked a multi-million dolllar copper shipment and replaced the copper with painted patio-stones.
The stones were 'ingot shaped' and painted copper. I wonder if they used brushes or spraypaint?
Probably could find the bandits, by looking for 'shiny turks'. Lol.
It was on Bloomberg made me literally lol.

Anyway, yeah, I'm a fan of metals. But not chinese or turk.

Info tax:
$GME closed at 260.00 and faltering in postmarket ~$250.
$AMC closed slightly higher at 10.28, also slipping in postmarket at $10.16

That's why I linked US suppliers. It's relatively stable, never been declared illegal to own as far as I know, not really heavily tracked, and is better than gold or silver for smaller barter transactions.
I imagine it would be better than batteries.

Add a potato and another metal and you GET a battery!
 
Might spend a good chunk of my Biden bux on canned food. Lord knows if mega inflation hits those 50 cent cans of beans are gonna be worth a shitton. If nothing does happen, well, I like to eat beans.
and batteries.
I read a thread about a channer stuck in a war-zone. Knowing how to refill lighters was gold.
Batteries became a currency.

I'm not going to these level of Mad Max.
However, I am gonna spend these Biden Bux ASAP.
Read that thread. It was from Sarajevo during the Balkan War. Apparently a can of Spam got you a night with a woman. The collapse also came stupid fast. Within 2 weeks people went from fat and happy to killing each other over a can of beans.
 
$GME on a strong rally out of the gate, briefly touching $295.50, now $272.50.
Bloomberg credits 100% of the recent rallies with r/WSB.

$AMC touched $11.40, now $11.05.
AMC representatives announced that stock earnings will be used to fund rent and capex requirements. Sidestepping bankruptcy, and temporarilly boosting the stock value.
(punchline: what do you think happens when a company uses STOCK ISSUANCES to pay for BASIC OBLIGATIONS?!?!)
(What happens when a corporation SELLS millions of shares of their stock?!)

If I was more liquid right now I'd buy a generator and maintenance items for it. Other than the very basics, storable food, water (and a purification method), and guns, you're gonna want energy and power sources. Being able to make biodiesel for a compatible vehicle, or having a wood gas powered truck (youtube this) would be yuge. Fire (a few thousand bic lighters is a good start), flammable and reactive chemicals or reagents (some of these double as medicine), basic metal working tools. Shit like that. Seeds and fertilizer. Your mom. Basic tools like a shovel.

Edit: It ain't gonna happen for a while though. The stock market can crash, the dollar can inflate, but until all that shit happens AND we get some natural disasters or other catastrophes to really upset the apple cart, it's gonna be a slow decline.
 
This is now a doom poster thread.

Do not doom, friend. Instead, prepare. The worst that could happen is ending up having to eat more dried and canned foods for a while which doesn't seem so bad. After all, the good kinds of metal don't oxidize and as far as I'm aware, bandages have no expiration date.

Don't worry, if you can't get your mom on such short notice the smart play is to get someone else's mom. It's a mom rotation. Later on we can fight dads.

Speaking of dad fights, when is the market gonna crash? It's been way too high through all the shutdown nonsense. Are they just gonna run the printer until everything blows up? I'd be wary of buying into almost any position right now.

So what's the likely hood of scrap yards and recycling plants stock going up?

From where they are now? Nil. From the post-apocalypse baseline? Probably still not great since scarcity would compel people to hold onto their shit and recycling isn't usually efficient. But if you bought yourself an entire scrapyard today you'd be in prime position to haphazardly bolt metal plates to the fence and rule over your own Mad Max compound.

Friday lol

Since we doom posting now but for some reason think that only the USD is going to crash in theory couldn't you convert your USD to a safer currency and ride out the hyper inflation hit?
If anyone remembers the Wuflu warning about the stock market crashing on /pol/, the poster suggested to buy Euros.
Aren't multiple other currencies pegged to the USD as well?
What other countries have let the printer go Brrrrr? Unlike the US a lot of countries have been handing out no questions asked checks to stay home.

I remember when Paul Krugman was super excited about this

I am not saying hyper inflation is not gonna happen (it's a guarentee that the oil price increase is going to shove all other things up), all the warning signs are there... But I have lived through hearing this when Bush was running up the national debt for the Middle East wars and while the housing crash sucked, it wasn't the mad max future I was told. Then durring the Obama era I was told hyper inflation was definately gonna happen cause Quantitative easing is the exact same and inflation. The economy sucked, but far from a collapse. Then I stocked up on food, ammo, and survival stuff because I genuinely thought WuFlu was going to be the end of the world.... If not from killing us all from the economic impact.... Then it turned out it wasn't as deadly as we all thought so long as you take care of your self and take vitamins and the housing market has been on fire. I kinda got dooms day prepper fatigue at this point. I know Michael J. Burry said it was going to happen soon, but he said this after saying he was going long on Game Stop then once everyone got in on his position asked the government to get involved to stop the volatility.

Without restocking I could probably survive a year off the supplies I still have left over assuming there isn't roaming civil wars and we aren't all killing each other.
Wouldn't it be crazy if the thing the FBI was investigating on Hilary's server was her plan to sow civil unrest amongst multiple groups because they knew that the Fed was going to collapse and their corporate masters were looking to make money off it in the form of a great reset?

Just out of curiousity, what are the people like Buffet and Soros investing in right now? I hardly think they would be keeping a single USD if hyper inflation is right around the corner.

Good questions
AFAIK: All Fiat currencies trade each other. They are so intricately co-dependent, if a major one collapses, the shakeup is felt worldwide. Look at the effect the 2008 US Mortgage market collapse had on europe. If the dollar dies, so do the euro, the yuan, etc... Non Fiat, non petro-dollar dependent (oil-independent) currencies will probably skyrocket. Gold and silver too.

I was told in my youth that I would never drive a gasoline powered vehicle. We were all told that the US ,is now and forever an oil importer. Then we all suffered under a $200+ barrel, which would 'never come down again'. All were lies or half-truths. Understand why this happened. Then figure out why things are happening.

AFAIK, Buffet is p much retired. His team manages the porfolios.

Look at detroit. When it got bad people would strip all the metal from sky scrapers. Who bought those metals? Scrap yards

Also when people get less technologally inclined such technology is going get scrapped. No one going keep airplanes around if there is no one to fly them
