Possibilities, in order of what I consider most likely...

1. Significant event that affects the political world.

2. Significant financial situation.

3. Significant death.

4. Significant natural disaster.

5. Significant prediction *failure* on the part of poptart.

2. Significant financial situation.

Silver soars above previous "Hunt Brothers" levels of $50 per oz and hits $300. Kierland immediatly cashes out, goes over the hill and is never heard from again.

Stanford should just go ahead and join the SCVAL. They could play my old school, and it would really cut down on the travel expenses. They might even make it into the De Anza division.

Does downgrading the US credit score count? Seems like a pretty big deal.

Yes.
It is significant.

The downgrade of U.S. credit happened a few days before the 8/8 date I was watching.

Not only was U.S. credit downgraded, but a number of banks were also downgraded, on 8/7.

The U.S. financial system is a house of cards.

At some point a card will be pulled, and we're going to see some serious shit go down.

Hawaii doom!

Hawaii fires: At least 36 killed as flames sweep through Maui

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-66460401

The deaths in the city of Lahaina, the island's main tourist destination, came as strong winds from
a distant hurricane fanned the flames.
The fire is one of several ongoing blazes that have burnt entire neighbourhoods to the ground.
Thousands of people have been forced to evacuate their homes and a state of emergency has been
declared.

"This is not a safe place to be," Hawaii Lt Governor Sylvia Luke told reporters. "We have resources that
are being taxed."
Firefighters are still battling active fires, with helicopters dropping water on the blazes from above.
The western side of the island, which is the second largest of the Hawaiian archipelago, was almost
cut off entirely with only one main road open...

Diego, Kushner’s money grabs are extremely concerning, but his money didn’t come from our most dangerous enemy.

So you went from it’s the end of the world to concerning. Nice backpedal. And yeah it came from our second or third most dangerous country. One that had just murdered an American and miniDump was an administration official and it was literally a million times more. Just STFU.

I’m more concerned with money coming from our greatest enemy than I am with money coming from Saudi Arabia, although it is concerning as well.

Let me let you in on something, you dumb fuck. Xi has no intention of watching his economy continue to collapse. There won’t be 10 years to wait. Likely not 5.

You might want to study a little Chinese history. Go way back as well, but concentrate on the last 100 years or so.

Rather than exposing your ignorance in here, focus your intellectually starved brain on Xi Jinping’s life.

The Hawaii death toll is rising.

At least 93 people have died in the fire that consumed the historic town of Lahaina on the Hawaiian island of Maui, officials said, making it the deadliest US wildfire in more than a century and with the toll expected to rise.

“It’s an impossible day,” the state governor, Josh Green, told reporters on Saturday after viewing the devastation. Earlier, he said operations were now centred on “the loss of life”.

The fire would “certainly be the worst natural disaster that Hawaii ever faced”, he said. “We can only wait and support those who are living. Our focus now is to reunite people when we can and get them housing and get them healthcare, and then turn to rebuilding.”

At a press conference later he repeated his warning that the death toll would rise...

I wouldn't be surprised if the toll tops 200. Yesterday morning they were saying that over 1,000 people were missing, and that the warning alarms came very late.

Interesting news on Michael Burry...

On Monday it was revealed that Burry held bearish bets against the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, according to securities filings released Monday, to the tune of over a billion dollars.

Burry and his Scion Asset Management fund bought put options (contracts giving the option to sell at a certain price) with a value of $886 million against the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust which tracks the S&P 500. Scion also bought put options totaling $739 million against against the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF QQQ that tracks the Nasdaq 100.

The $1.6 billion Scion spent betting against the market represents 93% of the fund's entire portfolio.

https://www.thestreet.com/investing/the ... the-market

So Burry, who called the 2008 housing crash, has bet 93% of his fund's portfolio on a market decline/crash.

Sounds pretty sure of himself.

(Bloomberg) -- Moody’s Investors Service lowered credit ratings for 10 small and midsize US banks and said it may downgrade major lenders including U.S. Bancorp, Bank of New York Mellon Corp., State Street Corp., and Truist Financial Corp. as part of a sweeping look at mounting pressures on the industry.

Higher funding costs, potential regulatory capital weaknesses and rising risks tied to commercial real estate loans amid weakening demand for office space are among strains prompting the review, Moody’s said in a spree of notes late Monday.

“Collectively, these three developments have lowered the credit profile of a number of US banks, though not all banks equally,” it wrote in some of the assessments.

Firms that had ratings cut included M&T Bank Corp., Webster Financial Corp., BOK Financial Corp., Old National Bancorp, Pinnacle Financial Partners Inc., and Fulton Financial Corp.

Northern Trust Co. and Cullen/Frost Bankers Inc. are also under review for downgrades.

And Moody’s adopted a “negative” outlook for 11 lenders including...
