Stawk Market

[Jim Burton]

In two days, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen from 42k to 39k, and could continue to correct and crash over the ongoing tariff fears, and related fragilities in the world financial system.

I can't legally give out financial advice, but obviously, this is a very important time for us as a group, when we decide where we put our money for the next few decades, particularly if the correction goes past 30 to 40%.

Saving money in long term investment vehicles such as physically backed Gold and Silver ETFs or mining trusts (at the bottom of a crash or correction) would appear to be a wise and prudent move with considerable upside over the middle to long term, as would a small proportion to cryptocurrency. This is due to the fact that fiat currency can be endlessly printed and devalued (it has) and tangibles will always revalue against it. A further upside can be realized when faith in those currencies plunges, forcing governments to replace them with gold/and/or silver/PGM/crypto backed currencies. Even if the asset class is confiscated, it will be confiscated at an almost fair price that forces people to sell it.

It would be great to get a group of MAPs together who collectively invested in proven, inflation-safe long term vehicles and reaped the rewards, allowing them to retire early and leave money in trust to activist efforts.

This is not intended to be read as investment advice, I just have an idea that has been working well for almost a decade.

I was just thinking along the same lines. So it'd probably be a good idea to get a little committee together and decide on some of these proven, inflation-safe long term vehicles.

[Gavin Prynne]

Same.

MAPWorld needs money for infrastructure and defense in the worst way.

I know a lot more about crypto than most people do. I'll admit; however, that this isn't saying much.
