Now, we did have a big hiccup here.

One of them is China. China has huge protests going on right now with the lockdowns. Honestly, there are two bad options for China. One, they double down on Zero COVID policy. This could get really bad where they're arresting citizens, they're using force, and they’re locking everybody up. Or China can do the opposite, just let everything go and end the “Zero COVID policy” and allow people to just freely roam around.

The reason why this is a big deal is, number one, it brings uncertainty, and every time you have uncertainty, you see dips in the market. The second thing is the outcomes are bad. Let's say they just open up and end the “Zero tolerance” policy. Probably China’s hospital systems would get overrun. China has been doing media control saying, "People are getting vaccinated. It's getting better," but overall they're not prepared for this. They're not like all the other countries that opened up allowing everyone to get infected with a milder version of Covid. This Chinese Covid situation is becoming a black swan event. We don't know exactly what's going to happen, but let's say they do open up, that could end up being a very pandemic-like situation for their stock market and that's going to impact the rest of the world.

First of all is the Fed.

Every week we talk about inflation calming down. This week there is a hint that maybe December’s interest hike might only be a 50 basis point move as opposed to the expected 75 basis point move. This is why you’ll hear markets “cheer, everything is still going up. They're seeing an end in sight to these interest hikes. This is important because if one can reasonably assume the interest rate peak is going to be in February, then they can start deploying their funds accordingly.

Why you should believe in Bitcoin 2023

Here is why we think Bitcoin is making a comeback SOON! So, you better get ready. Bitcoin is about to make the “geniuses” at the Federal Reserve look, well…. Stupid. Bitcoin is “halving” and there is a great chance this could be a major spike in the asset's price. But you need to be an early adopter to grab this opportunity. What is halving? It’s what makes the dollar look ridiculous! While the Federal Reserve an d Treasury are printing more money and devaluing the dollar, Bitcoin is doing the opposite. Bitcoin is making it twice as hard to mine and thus slowing down the number of Bitcoin in the world. Bitcoin is making itself more valuable. Take lessons Powell, you might learn something! To learn more about halving and profit from it, Don’t be a Powell, ILLBERTIC

NFT

And this segues into our NFT section where Coinbase is adding support for PYR (the primary utility token of the platform). It's called Vulcan Forged. Remember, anytime you see an exchange listing, you should sell. Because the coin will pump, and nine times out of 10, probably 99 times out of a hundred, actually, the thing's going to fade back to the pre-listing price. For that reason, I do think this is going to fall back to $3. It did bounce to $3.30, which is about 10%. But that's always a great time to sell. You can always buy back in for 10% less in theory. But you have no idea if the market is going to keep it going but statistically, that's just what happens almost all of the time. We also have OpenSea launching on BNB Chain. Now the funny thing is I never thought of BNB Chain as a very NFT centric chain. Solano is the other bigger player, and Polygon is catching up. Also, a lot of these other chains like Avalanche are trying to get onto it, but it's not rea...
