Good Sunday to you Maurice. Following up to my note to you here Message 32737826 re faith, I reviewed the macro-scape this day and I was reminded of this video which you had indicated you enjoyed back 2002 11 22
In the video JPM, Dow and gold were mentioned, and in your response QCOM was referenced Message 18264858
On that release date,
- DOW was @ 8,896 (now @ 23,685) => 2.66X (after drastic massaging culling out the laggards) - QCOM was @ 26.61 (now @ 75.77) =>2.85X - JPM was @ 25.17 (now @ 85.9) => 3.41X - Silver was @ 4.52 (now @ 16.61) => 3.67 - Gold was @ 320 per troy ounce (now @ 1,740) => 5.44X
As events have turned out w/r to Gold (sorry, I meant GOLD), Dow, JPM, and QCOM, did not come out well for three of the four, and am guessing the gaps shall widen further going forward.
It is not too late to engage w/ the true, elemental, primordial, eternal, faithful, and for sure metallic savings.
Conclusions, since 22nd November 2002, it has been obvious and indubitably true that: - Passive investing is for the unfortunates - Broad market along with its many constituent parts have been nothing but imperfect indicators for proxy monetary inflation - Whatever productivity gains had much more to do w/ global equalisation of cost and revenue, and by inference, income
Question: where might we be at in 2026, and 2032? We shall find out in a few months, and then a few more months.
I implore you, do something, anything, before it becomes truly too late. I suspect the Nasdaq shall crater big-time, at least against gold.
