RE:Why the Fed will Cut and Must do it SOON!What you say may be true, but those working behind the scenes want the monetary system to fail. How else can you usher in the new system?
There are two paths the world can take after the current system implodes: the CBDC (central bank digital currency) which is just electronic fiat currency and a continuation of the current failed monetary regime or the return to gold via a marriage of crypto (digital currency) backed by gold.
Patriots versus the Deep State if you will. My bet and my money is on gold (and silver). So, I don't fear the implosion of the current system but rather welcome it as I have been investing for it for about the last 20 years. Whilst the ding dongs chase the FANG stocks and the stock du jour pumped by Kramer and company, I stayed focused on the long game (just like the Chinese & Russians).
Our world will never escape debt bondage until we elevate into a new system: a return to gold.
The uh-oh moment as you call it is merely the realization that the current system has run its path and trying to kick the can down the road is no longer a viable option.
