Hello,
Trillions of dollars ? Or rather "paper profit" (the numbers stored in computers)?
The entire nature is cyclical. Autumn and winter comes after summer, what's wrong with that?
Recession follows the period of growth. And it forces companies to seek
more efficiency and makes them more competitive. That's healthy for the economy.
Fed printing money does not make you wealthier, you will just see more zeros in numbers
on your computer screen but this means nothing. What's the difference if someone
is losing wealth by market fall or by money devaluation? Only the one who has the printer
benefits from that.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
