RE:FEDIt is unlikely that it is nearly as bad as it was in say the 1920`s or `70`s to name a few era`s with corrupt officials . . No regulation then. But as always the market will correct and there is a blood bath . Been around for a few of those . The problem for us is that gold miners tumble with all the rest . But as the crash causes major recessions , the gold miners become very popular . Usually just after I throw in the towel.
