But the whole point is for me is to just hold it right.

It's the it's the anchor to my dollars.

Now, I'm also invested in the market because I do believe that the stock market needs to continue to go up.

The president has told you that he's going to run things hot.

This is going to be what's called a nominal basis.

So the headline number not adjusted for inflation on a real basis adjusted for inflation is

It probably is not doing well.

In fact, the S&P has not kept up with gold.

It looks really ugly if you look at the charts of the stock market compared to gold.

But again, that's why you have that in your portfolio.

But just to keep up on a nominal basis, the one part that we have to worry about with stocks.

is that there is a ton of international money that's in the markets.

And at some point, that money is probably going to get drawn out for their own crises and maybe thrown into gold or whatnot.

And that's going to have a downward effect.

But again, I think that they're going to use tools like Fed tools and whatnot to pump it back up.

Because if the stock market goes down, both directly and indirectly, the government will collect less money on a headline basis.

And that will explode their deficits and that will tip off a crisis.

So they know they need to continue to push that up.

If you see in recent posts from Donald Trump, he's saying Dow 100,000.

And again, while he's not, you know, I wouldn't say that's an accurate prediction necessarily.
