Hearing American Trump threaten to BOMB Oman. This is what it's like living beside America as Canadians. America constantly threatens Canada and now Oman. The news today made me so disappointed in America again.

Imagine having British ancestry on an artist residency in southern France during a world cup final game between France and Britain. Not bad for a new west kid.

I wonder when Canada gets its turn? America is unhinged and we are so fucking vulnerable.

The US government stimulating a crisis is a normal occurrence once credit or labour show signs of stress. The playbook is to spook investors out of risk and into dollars. Then inject massive liquidity to reflate assets.
Scenario GOVERNMENT RUG PULL is on the table: Everyone is going to reflexively seek safe harbour in government issued currency. The insatiable beast will simply feed off this new bonanza of resources.

Trump not beating up on Canada means something wicked this way comes. Trump™ will annex Greenland, disband NATO, encourage AI disruption - causing Treasury market collapse. Then its simply a matter of fomenting anger and Lay conquest for Canada

Canada is to the United States what Ukraine is to Russia: a mineral rich bread basket with salt water access a strategic body of water.

We want Venezuela, We want Greenland, We NEED Canada, We're taking Canada. There's nothing you can do to stop us.

Is @elonmusk intentionally gaslighting everyone or is he just brilliant but this naive? How does "everyone" get the millions currency units to buy this abundance? "Everyone"👏needs👏the👏money👏 but they are not going to get it

🧵1/2 If money is stored energy And the world is on the cusp of producing 5 x more energy for the high efficiency production of goods and services, All else equal, the price of newly produced things will fall. BUT bc the role of the central bank is to keep prices stable,

2/2 Then they will and must print an enormous amount of offsetting currency units to match the acceleration of energy production, goods and services. This isn't necessarily about profligate spending and deficits but simply the established rules of the Keynesian financial system

J Bond yields rising today led me to clarify the meaning of a basis point. The terminal comes back with a hundredth of a percent. BUT the ticker is gaged to 1000/ths of percent. What is a thousandth called? It's called a PER CENT MILLE. 👇

Mille is French for a thousand. A MILE is derived from the French word mille What could take up a thousand units in a mile? One step is 2.5' and a stride or a full gait cycle is 5' or 1.52 meters. One thousand strides equals 1520m - approximately one mile

What happens if you're in a country that's both deindustrialized and dedollarized? Not good things. The closest parallel may be Russia in the 90s. They also had globally uncompetitive factories, devalued currencies, and lost imperial identities. xitter.cf/MentoLabs/status/19048…
