Funny - I'm re-watching Margin Call as I write this. What's coming will be infinitely worse. Welcome to the savage, Balkanized States of America.

the global economy is heading for turbulenceI have no idea what this means. What I do know is that we bet the western economy on winning in Ukraine, breaking up the Russian federation and seizing the assets. That, it turns out isn't working out so well and Europe is in a fix because of very expensive gas prices. That's what happens when you misunderestimate your enemy. Just what part of Russian capabilities in integrated air defense, electronic warfare and artillery capacity did we forget to take into consideration.

Buy 1 year and 2 year treasuries. Swoop in when markets crash.

meaning that global liquidity conditions will naturally tighten further.
That’s the key phrase/word right there. Liquididy. Cheap money IE low interest rates that we have had for years, means there is a lot of money floating around. liquidity. Tighter interest rates means less money. Think of liquidity as oil in your engine. Oil drains away, engine seizes up. Tech stocks need lots of cheap money because profits on new things are years away. Cheap money goes away, new startups go belly up before they hit profitability.

Tourism in the Gettysburg area has slowed in the past month. Not crazy slow, but noticeable.

I would not be surprised if there was a worldwide depression in 5 years or less.

Trading around seats is not going to save you. Still on the same plane. About time to deploy the ejection seat and bail out.

.Gov has a plan—to bail out the big banks and the big investment banks—no matter what.
They will be the last ones standing.

Those that believe the government and media “expert” economists when they tell you that “everything is awesome” and that Bidenomics is working great, are in for a very rude awakening.
