Actuallly the correct answer is the markets will crash when it says so on a chart...(sarcasm)
Of course the problem with charts are they are based on past history, and Chartists spot patterns or signals, or get a computer to do this for them. All well and good apart from the fact the market makers have the same algorithms and must faster computers tapped directly in the market, so your trying to guess a move that’s already been considered and hoping to hang onto the coat tails.
More simply put Warren Buffett who knows a thing or two about investing said “If past history was all there is to the game, the richest people would be librarians”.Comment

So, what’s going to cause this massive crash.. the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse riding over the hill? Asteroid heading our way and no Bruce Willis.
Crash will no doubt come one day, just not sure soon.
Everyone is expecting inflation due to massive money printing. Money printing = rising inflation = higher gold prices. Problem with that is gold was $200 back in 2000 and has gone 10x since then, FED balance sheet has only gone 7x since that time.
Even more interesting is the printed virtual money by the FED is now being erased. The FED balance sheet has dropped $0.25 trillion since June. Not a peep on the news.
Deflation will tank the markets. Now ask yourself, why are you expecting inflation when we're already at the top of multiple asset bubbles?Last edited by scooterscot; 13 August 2020, 10:46."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience".
