I was doing the math on some of the jewelry and it is crazy...gold has risen so quick it isn't all revaluing so you can buy like necklaces and bracelets from Costco at basically spot price or in a day or two at this rate below spot.
The problem I see with "there are a bunch of simmering collapses just under the surface" narratives from the two auto collapses and regional bank earning disasters is that it's really hard to disprove a negative. Everyone is on edge and the only way to feel better is for nothing else to happen.
Add in gyna and the general 🥭 risk, and down looks a lot more likely than up.
I have a new investing strat instead of putting 2k per month in the market im going to buy 2k in lottery tickets every month. Not some 1:300m bullshit but like the texas two step that has 1:1.8m odds. At 1$ per ticket 2000 tickets my jackpot odds every month would be 1:900. Jackpot regularly gets into the 500-800k range. I dont hate the odds
