In my more paranoid moments I think that this is what all of this is really about. Whilst the "herd" is distracted, crash the system that was on life support anyway and clean up for pennies in the pound. I am guessing this is Alex Jones' theory anyhow.

Whether that's correct or no someone certainly took that advice around 1940 when stocks and London property had become cheap. Jews who had made their way to Britain and had some money reasoned that if the enemy got across the Channel they were toast anyway. But if that failed then you're going to become very wealthy. I can't but admire the logic. Other ethnicities/nationalities may well have participated, that's just how the story was told to me by a stockbroker in the 60s.

Bluestone59 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Thinking more about it, it looks as though Buffet may have added "even if it's your own" to the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m more positive - people see a BBC reporter wandering about in Rome and wonder "Why isn`t she masked up.....why is she even there if it is so dangerous...etc. etc." then they talk to their friends about how it is all B.S or go on a conspiracy website to express how they think there is an element of B.S in the narrative that is going on at the moment. IME more and more people are openly saying that the news narratives are B.S and the financial elites are pulling strings....and it is so obvious that surely everybody knows this..right? ....This attitude is a million miles removed from the public attitudes and beliefs that allowed a monster property bubble to develop, of course if we really do have a serious pandemic whether people are awake or not is not going to make any difference unfortunately..........

jiltedjen Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 i think after a weekend to think about it people will cool their heads. Must of lost most of what we were going to lose already, especially on the FTSE100 maybe the dow jones and S&P500 has to shed a bit more.

crazypabs Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 2008 stocks fell by half from peak to trough. That was just a financial crisis. They threw money at it and boom bust boom.

ftb_fml Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Wow - FTSE down a further 6.5% already today; having lost nearly 30% in less than a month. I can't see the panic stopping any time soon either since the virus has a long way to run yet.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was the Rothchilds who were bankers during the napoleonic wars, they sent a message back that the English were going to lose, the stock market ranked and they bought loads for pennies on the pound. Making themselves the richest people on the planet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
