no body is selling yet are they?

those who have holdings are holding in the face of unsupported bids... paper losses until they sell, as they say.

how long will they do that?

if no one is buying... it is really easy to kill a value, much easier than making a value rise, don't you think?

those people who are still holding don't have to sell one single share to end up, potentially, with nothing.

just like million dollar shacks in California. if they paid cash for the shack there will be no loss until it comes time to put it on the market.... of course their property taxes will hurt while they persist in the illusion.

"As I wrote before the monster must be feed or eat you alive, otherwise the US will face systemic collapse...... so they will be forced to inflate"

Mankind has been attempting to convert metal into gold since the time of the alchemists. And so far we have not be able to do so.

The transformation of paper into wealth is even more difficult and the failure of previous attempts to do so well documented.
