How good is your intuition?

Really hoping I’m wrong about Gen X retirement en masse single handily collapsing the stock exchange causing the worst financial crisis to date.

I haven’t peeped any numbers lately but the aging work force and passive investments into etf portfolios with nowhere near the cash reserves to cover the draw down once the generation of 6-10 children become dependent on the 1-3 children generation lol

Basically a race between the ai bubble and the silver tsunami at this point pain all around

More like the publicly traded mega corps depend on people / the market wanting to buy their stock to inflate the value of their shares with speculative claims about their products cough artificial intelligence so they can leverage their ownership of that asset.

Yeah the means of production being owned by the billionaires is a problem but it isn’t what’s going to gut people’s retirement funds lol

We’ve been living the gradual creep for years it’s been staved off my policy that kicks the can down the road push retirement ages further out and incentivizing delaying benefits as long as possible or getting penalized for early retirement.

It doesn’t have to happen “all at once” as soon as market participation is in net divestment mode fund manager’s like Blackrock and vanguard who’s passive etf strategy is give us money = buy stock they will be forced to divest to cover sell orders causing a cascade

it is a point of no return

When you spur of the moment decide to turn your gaming pc into a proxmox machine and then miss gaming so you end up down a rabbit hole of iommu groups to pass your Gpu through to a steam os VM to wrestle with Linux virtual display drivers so you can use sunshine to cast your games to your laptop

It eventually worked but you can quickly end up in a niche hell hole with little to no coherent documentation.
