The US stock market is home to the world's biggest companies and has set a series of all-time highs recently despite warnings from the International Energy Agency that the global economy is facing the biggest energy shock in history.

Its like people are completely asleep to the energy and food crisis that is building up. I guess there has been so many crisis lately they they have stopped reacting.

If Hormuz doesnt open up, and I dont think it will, there will be a lot of big problems. Probably mostly for Asia and Europe, but im not sure if America will be immune. What if food costs increase? Fuel costs?

Already sold all my US stocks, except 2. It was when trump started his major bullshit streak. I don't trust the US economy any more; not even for gambling with stocks.

Most other countries are fine tho.

    The thing is, the market thinks that if if crashes, America will just create more money and inject it into the stock market again. Because they can just do that and they dont care about their debt. Its so absurd.

    There is also this idea that americas war machine depends on the market going up, to fuel investments. I dont know how true that is. But there is this sense of stock market never going to be down for long.
