My take: Passive ETFs have been dramatically propping up U.S. Equity markets throughout 2022, as autopilot investors focused on continuing to shift from active investments to passive investments. Some say we are in a standard 20% bear market decline, and will be short lived, but I believe this thesis to be incorrect.
I believe 2023 ultimately breaks this active to passive trend, as more and more people finally wake up to how toxic passive investing actually is, how it funds the woke agenda through BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street, Fidelity and then into the rest of the financial services economy, and how this kind of "laissez-faire investing" ends up greasing the palms of both political parties, and weakens the minds at these financial institutions, as people become robots to the system, as opposed to the free thinkers that would make bold calls to people willing to listen. These so called masters (the men and women behind the Curtain of Oz) are now the listeners, and they tell you how to be part of groupthink. Talk to your Financial Advisor (or any for that matter), and then you'll know what I'm talking about once you get a response.
Word to the wise: active investors (you and I and anyone willing to listen) can finally beat the market, because we have figured out their shenanigans and can use that against them!
How so, Silence?
Stop playing their games, dump these "dumb money ETFs" - the major indices like S&P, NASDAQ and Dow! For cash, stack precious metals, canned food, basically anything that can store value for some period of time! If you have to be invested in various markets over the next couple of years, stick to domestic when possible; Precious Metals mining stocks, commodity stocks and royalty companies will be choppy, but these kinds of investments will present far better risk/return rewards than the abyss the NASDAQ swamp has within it, especially in a rising rate environment, which I believe will continue until they break something beyond repair. 6% Treasuries and 9% mortgages will be here in 2023.
These passive ETFs and passive funds give these crooks another layer to fuck around with your money, and one more onion peel for you to have to uncover, doing your own research! A good chunk of any index money goes into Apple, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon and Google, which those 5 companies alone make up quite a chunk of many indexes! Some of you may even realize that you are stuck with these plain vanilla index funds with barely any information on them, particularly if you are in some type of employer sponsored plan where in a lot of cases, they already make much of these decisions for you! So you might as well take some basic financial courses on your own online (start with free content and then work your way to other venues as the Lord guides you), so find solid teachers and get researching! Control what you can control, and protect your Financial Home in love and wisdom! Amen 🙏🏻🙌🏻🕊️
