Well? Was I wrong, you 21st century Candide?

"BEND OVER, HERE IT COMES AGAIN!"

The market, and you as well, should come to repeat it as a mantra.

Yeah, I think most of the housing dips are going to be in the cities, suburban and rural homes will hold steadier due to the influx of city refugees.
I dont wanna power level but in the area I live, land developers and banks have been scooping up any and all farmland that pops up. Going so far as to pay $2-4k more per acre over list/other offers.

They have then go about clear-cutting and segmenting the tracts up into acre sections to sell back to retard homesteading commiefornians for $2-3k more on top of that.

Due to local legalities most of the people in the inner sections are unable to get electric/sewage on their little segments but don’t find out until after they make the big move and get tired of the lifestyle after a year or two.

On one hand it’s always funny seeing city slickers get screwed but on the other hand it’s drug-addled trash getting moved into the community.

What is all the fuss about?

There is nothing happening in the markets today that is anything then what was expected some time ago and is par of the course.

If you run a business you understand it is not like China where every year it is steady growth (fake), you plan for the inevitable gold rush periods and the droughts. Money markets and assets move with conditions.

Don't plan a beach party when the weather man has said that not only are you doing it during the rainy season, but they are pretty certain the forecast that particular weekend looks like a bitch.

I'm pretty sure there is a post of mine not that too far back that said I was happy with losing value of cash due to inflation because I'd rather that than the drought of funds during a period where cash would be more ideal to hold.

That time is upon us. and will prevail as a condition for 6-9 months.

It's similar to where (I'm in Canada) I spend a lot of my time; everywhere I go there are subdivisions being built and those massive blocks of houses where you've got about six feet between you and your neighbour's house, and about an 80's pornstar's pube patch worth of a front lawn. Housing prices everywhere are skyrocketing and where you could have had a nice small new home a decade ago for a quarter of a million dollars the same one is often easily going for ~$500,000 or more. So many places that I remember travelling through or visiting are beginning to look almost unrecognizable just in the past decade because of the outflow from major cities in addition to unending high immigration numbers (anyone who knows anything about Canada knows that we're basically just one collective whore with our legs spread wide open for the Chinese.)

I would personally get out of tech stocks

I think the upcoming correction will knock them back to more realistic levels. That includes shit like Amazon, Tesla and Shopify.

You can't really go wrong buying good solid companies who pay a good dividend. Even during crashes. If you got the cash I'd say go into oil producers for now but get out once they start to go soft and diversify your shit. Don't be all in on only the risky sectors.

Maybe this.

But the more important point here is to not go to strong into one sector of the economy or one stock. Diversification is the solution. If one sector outperforms for a while does not mean that said sector will continue to do so in the future.

I remember the 2000's 'tech' bubble and can't believe people still fall for 'it'll be the next Microsoft!'-itis in this sector. How is Uber ever going to turn a profit? Why would I ever want to invest in a TV and movie production company (Netflix)? All of this trash is wildly overvalued.

Exactly this, which is why people pulling out to cash only are retards. At this moment, company fundamentals are the best things to rely on and not the day to day or week to week market fluctuations. If your "investment" decisions keep you up at night to the point that you sell at a loss and go to cash, you probably shouldn't have invested in the first place. Not to say there never is a situation where you should do this, but, like trannies, it should be a rarity. You got solid companies who are trading 10-30% under there fundamental worth which means there are gains to be had in five years time.

That whole shit with GME seems to have created a new class of retard investors who have no knowledge of economics or finance but damn it they watch a lot of youtube videos and have strong opinions.

Absolutely. But I don't really blame the anomaly that is and still is the GME, AMC, insert MeME stock here. I think that is a blossoming, new investment style that is worth following and maybe even participating in at a very small rate. It is the philosophy of self fulfilling prophecy there. But yes, a lot of people are using large portions of their savings or finances to make it rich quick which is unhealthy. A lot of the Youtube people pushing this neglect to mention the other account they have filled with a solid foundation to offset the losses in trading.

Unrelated note, I heard Warrior Trading is getting fined by the SEC for overselling his scalping and day trading strategy. False marketing or something.

I would caveat this by saying Amazon will be a big thing to buy at the bottom, whenever that will be. The fuckers are setting themselves up to be like CHOAM from dune. You may not see much benefit from owning a piece of them now, but holy shit your kids will.

The ongoing shitshow with crypto just goes to show that whether its stocks or magic meme money, you are fucked no matter what.

Doomer mindset says that you need to invest in ammo and non-perishable foods.
Livestock and farming tools are also a pretty safe bet if you're far enough away from other people and your neighbors are also farmers.
 
I have a maybe dumb question (I'm really not great at the finance stuff, I gotta admit). And apologies if this is the wrong thread for it, I just didn't think it warranted it's own...

So I live and work internationally, but get paid in USD into a US bank account. It is absolutely pummelling my native currency at the moment (I assume this is reserve currency/Ukraine stuff but see above, I don't know shit about fuck).

Like fisting it. Like if I pulled out the latest draw down I received and converted it I'd make an extra $12k locally. That's excluding the conversion fee.

I'm just wondering if any of you smart Kiwi business heads can give me any feelings on how the USD is likely to go these next few months? How does the dollar hold during a recession? How stable is it etc? I don't want to pull it all if it's going to creep up a little more, but obviously don't want to miss out if it falls on its ass.
