There was a pretty good analysis in Simply Wall Street, where they labeled the past quarter century as the high tech quarter (amongst others). Personally, climate collapse may well be the determining factor for the period 2025-2050. Any speculation what this will mean for investors (trends, individual stocks)?
It is a collapse of our foundation of living. The modern system, including banking, will not survive it. There is no way to escape this.
It means buy as much Hawk Tuah coin as you can so you prepare yourself for what the government will do to you.
According to research climate change will have very little effect on GDP. We will do climate mitigation, the amount of printed money will be far higher, efficiency will improve with technology, and dividends will be paid. So don’t fret it, it will affect you far more whether you get 200% or 250% in the next decade.

Here’s a good video on it.
Interesting. Here’s some comments that I found about this speaker: HSBC (his employer at the time) publicly distanced itself from Kirk’s remarks, stating they do not reflect the bank’s views or strategy. Kirk was suspended and later resigned. What I found instead: Most financial institutions, regulators, and scientists recognize climate change as a systemic risk. The Bank of England, the European Central Bank, and the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) all warn that climate change poses significant risks to financial stability, including physical risks (e.g., extreme weather) and transition risks (e.g., stranded assets, regulatory changes)
He’s right about the hit to GDP, its insignificant in the long run.
He’s simply an unreliable source, and thus this movie and his statements are worthless. It is always good to doublecheck the sources. Yet, I’m now looking for the speaker that he refers to in his first few words, she may be more interesting to listen to, thanks for the pointer.
We’re in a bubble, have been in it for years ( I couldn’t believe that Biden & Jinping could postpone the pop/collapse, then found out about Blackrock’s magnitude, & some other things… unbelieveable ).
It’ll pop. soon.
I expect that within 24h of Trump’s ripping the civilrights rug out from under the US, there’ll be NO stockmarket for household/“retail”.
Buffett’ll still be able to do things, Michael Burry was early, but not wrong, etc.
ClimatePunctuation’s still accelerating ( the global-warming SPEED curve looks like a bell-curve, so the speed-of-change begins at zero, climbs to a maximum ( rolling-average, not instantaneous ), then as the planet settles into its next Equilibrium, the speed-of-change slides down toward zero again.
We’re still in the climbing part of the curve, so all the idiotic “scientific” consensus that it’ll just stop soon is delusions.
AMOC’s fucking-up, so the EU’s going to be losing their ability to grow their own food, soon.
California, Texas, Sahara, Saudi Arabia, India, all ought be losing inhabitability in the next few decades, or less.
Not all of each-of-those’s territories, but most of each of them.
But when you make most of India uninhabitable, … perhaps you see the problem.
Perhaps you see why that would be a military-imperial-expansion opportunity that the communist-party wouldn’t “leave on the table”.
It’s the wars that are going to be the biggest thing, in the stock market:
Trump’s going to ditch the Iran war, & when sufficiently frustrated/goaded, will invoke either the Insurrection Act, Martial Law, or some other equivalent, soon.
( I read he tried having 2 senators arrested for disagreeing with him, yesterday: escalation’s near the tippingpoint I’ve been trying to get people to understand for years, now )
All he’ll care about is owning ALL of the Americas, & exterminating all who won’t worship/glorify him.
But what happens when the EU’s abandoned by the Americas, totally, AND AMOC shuts-off, removing their food-growing ability, AND China offers Putin/replacement the opportunity to war all they want on Europe, while China supplants Russia in gov’t, industry-leadership/authority, etc?
EU’s fucked.
& what part of the West is going to lift a finger to save Taiwan when Trump’s rampaging the Americas & China-backed Putin/whomever is rampaging the EU??
Nobody.
China’s going to REAP Taiwan, & with ClimatePunctuation’s help, demolish India ( no, Modi’s “strategy” of relying on Russia to back them in fighting China isn’t worth anything ).
See a Pattern, here?
Regional Consolidation.
I discovered there’s even another wrinkle thrown into the mix:
There’s a comet heading towards our Sun right now, named Sungrazer.
Thing is, they don’t know if it’ll be eaten by the Sun.
If it is, that’ll be in slightly less than 2 weeks? something like that…
The sunspots which are on the far-side of Sun did a CME in the last few days, & that was big enough to flare around most of the Sun’s disc, from our perspective…
When a comet/whatever gets eaten by the Sun, it gets pulled-in the gravity-well, & converted to plasma by the iNTENSE energy, & that plasma then gets grabbed by the magnetic-fields, & like “aurora” on Earth, gets pulled to the poles of that field.
Which happen to be sunspots.
So, if that comet, Sungrazer, gets eaten, it’ll be converted to plasma, yanked at absurdly-high speed into sunspots which will be facing us, then, & that impact will trigger a CME.
At us.
THAT is a possible Carrington Event ( red sky, fritzed satellites dropping down ).
While I hope it doesn’t happen, the intense-weirdnesses going on nowadays … make me worried about it.
They don’t know if it’ll be eaten.
IF it’s eaten, THEN it’s going to be converted into plasma, & slammed into Sun, fersure, & probably some CME will result, but in which direction?
Which magnetic-field-loops will grab it?
Which sunspot will it trigger?
Don’t know, right?
Dice.
I hate gambling with lifeworth.
- the bubble’s going to pop, it’s only a matter of time.
Trump’s trashing all the economy-props he can, as fast as he can.
It isn’t going to be that much longer, now, before Great Depression 2.
- IF that comet turns into a Carrington Event, then … our electronics are dead.
No GPS, much of the grid destroyed by millions+++ of volts picked-up on the electrical transmission lines ( last one set fire to things with the telegraph wires ).
- in this situation, I’d say get the hell out of stocks to things that keep their value in emergencies, like physical-gold/silver ( NOT corporate IOU’s, which their-bankruptcy converts into bagholder-losses ).
Gov’t t-bills/bonds are likely to be worthless once the economy pops, stocks … remember all the bankruptcies in Covid??
Multiply that by about 1000x, or something.
Feudalism’s what it’s going to be like, from what I can see.
Corporate/oligarchic feudalism.
Berkshire Hathaway’s the ONLY stock I’d want to own, right now.
There was a 4h-ish period, a couple years ago, perhaps, where there was an algorithmic dip/climb in the stock market: something like $1T changed ownership in that 4h…
This is going to be similar, whenever it happens…
& circumstance is going NUTS trying to enforce that it happens NOW, it looks like…
THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION, & check the space-weather sites to double-check that what I said about Sungrazer is true, & double-check to test what I said about Trump trying to butcher the economy, too, & do that with EVERY point I make.
While I’ve been right about what’s happening, I got the timing wrong, through the years: I thought Trump’s 1st term would be when he killed civilization from the Americas.
Blew that one, totally.
Now he’s doing it, but … why believe me now, if I’ve been wrong in the past, right?
Establishment’s the safe bet: if establishment believes that Status Quo is forever, then that’d be the safest bet in the world, wouldn’t it?

Hmm sounds as if you suggest I stock up on food and water.
