I think the U.S. economy and potentially many fiat currencies are going to collapse this year.
The past two years of nonsense cannot logically continue, especially with a potentially shrinking U.S. labor force (we will see what the labor numbers are tomorrow, every death or injury of a young person at this point is a huge, huge problem). I know that people say that those coming over the U.S.-Mexico border are our replacements, but they are not as intelligent or skilled as us. They cannot produce what we produce currently. Businesses will continue to die out. The supply chains are already in disarray. Large corporations have significant vacancies, and many small businesses have little to no help. This is not sustainable, and I do not even understand how it is has been sustained up to this point.
No matter what the Supreme Court does with the challenges to the mandates, a titanic collapse is coming. Shortages are already seen in stores and by factory workers. Prices are in flux. Everything is uncertain. Yet, the stock market is at record highs. Bizarre world we live in.
I think Europe is in a much worse position than the US. The Euro will continue to collapse this year and that international wealth will continue to rush into US stocks and bonds. Because the US is the world reserve currency, it will be the last domino to fall.
