Banks also have big bond portfolios when the 40-year bond bull market is going kaput. But I guess the Fed is going to cap yields sooner or later so maybe that still works.

NRGU, I'm wary of levered energy cause of it's vol (see 2020), and I'm wary of fossil fuels cause of retarded gov trying to fuck with it to stop inflation. Breaking futures markets, delisting futures etfs, or slapping producers with windfall taxes, that kind of thing. Probly will still get a little bit but prefer other commodity plays less likely to catch the same heat.

>It's just that right wing alt-social medias are fucking retarded.

They are but not for the reasons you are listing. The "R&D costs" are bullshit, most of these companies are just bloated to hell with useless people trying to invent problems to solve to justify their exorbitant salaries while the CEO desperately burns investor capital chasing anything he can sell as "growth".

The core functionality of a twitter clone with some advertising slapped on is very simple. Shit does not need to be complex.

The actual problem with any website allowing actual right-wing opinions is that the web infrastructure companies (which are a monopoly) would deplatform them, and so would any and all payment processors. Until alternative friendly infrastructure is set up they are ultimately doomed. Even if they tried there'd likely be government action to thwart it. TPTB see censorship as vital.

Declining pop which they're trying to replace with africans and arabs. For whatever reason it isn't going great and the new arrivals are struggling to add value to the economy as the "native stock" did. Probably quadrupling down and censoring anybody who disagrees will fix it tho. lol

Also, they're energy and commodity importers. Really yurop is economically and demographically in the same spot as China, except unlike China they're led by absolutely inbred mouth-breathing retards, who are obsessed with their stupid Davos ideology that doesn't even make sense on top of also being basically incompetent.

I can't think of a better short than yurop. T B H

The dollar being pumped up to cannibalize US vassal states (lessening our problems at their expense) over our domestic political concerns only hastens its end by incentivizing those vassals to look to alternatives.

Once again it's nothing but myopic arrogance and short term thinking by US leadership. DXY will rise even as the dollar loses absolute global importance. It's nothing but a measure of how much of a beating we're dishing out to our spineless lackeys.

is it just me or are grocery prices for some stuff finally starting to go back down a bit?

Pretty sure Biden banned fracking, right? Well, not all fracking, but fracking on federal lands at least. I'm not sure what ratio of fracking is done on federal land vs. private land however.
