Notice How DXY (rough approximation of dollar index) has been relentlessly climbing the past few months

The ({< globalists >}) want to create a currency crisis worldwide, which will force investors to shift all their holdings into USD denominated assets.
This will create a severe liquidity crisis in emerging markets as well as countries that Trump intends to tariff like Canada (based on what we have seen, every round of tariffs seems to drive the USD higher = bullish)

The net inflow will push US markets into new ATHs (since money has nowhere left to go but US markets + precious metals...I am EXTREMELY bullish on Silver after one final 20-25% CORRECTION) but only for a short period of time.
And here is what I foresee
<(They)> will crash the US market LAST. The other countries will fall first like dominoes.
E.g. given the size of Canada's housing bubble, I wouldn't be surprised if their unemployment begins going parabolic over the next 2 years (> 13%) and their asset prices crater by 50% (it will be worse given even more time)

It looks like a series of highly urgent moves to start attracting foreign investors. They know the dollar crunch will hurt them as well and need to be prepared immediately. Right now the market is reacting positively but with muted enthusiasm, so they will need to step up their efforts.
We shall see if they are successful when the time comes.

When people start believing they are Billy Pilgrim, I lose confidence in their predictions.
Please seat yourself.
