Part 2
The Stock Market:
A Bubble on the Verge of Bursting The stock market, particularly the technology sector, is a bubble waiting to burst. The Nasdaq 100 to Russell 2000 ratio, a key indicator of tech stock valuations relative to smaller companies, has reached levels even higher than those seen during the dot-com bubble. This shows that tech stocks are not just overvalued—they are in a massive bubble that is primed to burst.
As interest rates rise and the economic environment becomes more challenging, the profitability of tech companies will be squeezed, leading to a sharp decline in their stock prices. When this bubble bursts, the consequences will be severe. The Nasdaq 100 could drop to between 6000 and 7000, erasing trillions of dollars in wealth. The S&P 500, heavily influenced by the tech sector, will also crash, likely falling to 2100. This correction will not just be a market adjustment; it will trigger a broader economic crisis with far-reaching consequences.
The housing market, much like the stock market, is another disaster waiting to happen. Years of low interest rates and speculative buying have driven home prices to unsustainable levels. With rising interest rates, the demand for housing will inevitably slow, leading to a severe decline in home prices.
By 2026, the housing market could be in freefall. Millions of homeowners who bought at the peak of the market will find themselves underwater, owing more on their mortgages than their homes are worth. The resulting wave of foreclosures will flood the market with distressed properties, driving prices down even further. The housing crash will have devastating consequences for the broader economy, leading to massive job losses in the construction and real estate sectors and wiping out trillions of dollars in home equity. The financial system will be hit hard, as banks and other lenders face increased losses from bad loans, deepening the economic crisis.
Artificial intelligence is also advancing rapidly, and by 2030, it will have a profound impact on the job market. AI-driven automation is set to displace millions of jobs across various sectors, contributing to rising unemployment and economic dislocation.
While AI promises significant gains in efficiency and productivity, its impact on employment will be devastating. Workers displaced by automation will struggle to find new jobs in an economy that is shrinking and becoming increasingly automated. This will lead to greater social unrest and political instability, as the divide between those who can adapt to the new economy and those who cannot widens. The economic consequences of this disruption will be severe, with reduced consumer spending and further pressure on corporate profits.
The U.S. government’s ballooning fiscal deficit is another major concern. The federal government has been running large deficits for years, financed largely through the issuance of Treasury securities. However, as the deficit continues to grow, the demand for U.S. Treasuries may begin to wane, particularly in an environment of rising interest rates.
By 2026, the U.S. government could face significantly higher borrowing costs, which will limit its ability to respond to the economic crisis with fiscal stimulus. This will further compound the economic downturn, as the government’s ability to provide support to the economy will be severely constrained. The potential for a fiscal crisis, in which the government is unable to finance its debt obligations, could further undermine confidence in the U.S. economy and contribute to a broader global economic crisis.
As the economic downturn deepens and unemployment rises, there is likely to be a significant increase in nationalist sentiment, particularly in Europe. Economic hardship will exacerbate existing tensions around immigration, with a growing number of people blaming immigrants for taking jobs at a time when employment opportunities are scarce. This sentiment will fuel populist political movements that advocate for tighter borders and reduced immigration, leading to a resurgence of nationalist policies across the continent.
Deportations could become more common as governments respond to public pressure to prioritize jobs for native citizens. With the job market under strain, many countries may reduce the number of immigrants they admit, and those already present may face increased scrutiny and hostility. This shift towards nationalism and protectionism could lead to a more fragmented and divided Europe, with significant implications for social cohesion and international relations.
The rise of nationalism and anti-immigrant sentiment will also have broader implications for global stability. As countries turn inward and adopt protectionist measures, international cooperation will weaken, making it more difficult to address global challenges such as climate change, pandemics, and economic instability. The social fabric of many nations will be tested, with the potential for increased social unrest and conflict.
As the economic crisis deepens and unemployment skyrockets, Western governments are likely to consider implementing universal basic income (UBI) as a desperate measure to prevent social unrest. The idea of providing a guaranteed income to all citizens, regardless of employment status, will be seen as a necessary step to maintain social stability in a time of economic hardship.
However, the implementation of UBI will come with significant costs. To fund this program, governments will be forced to print more money, further expanding the money supply at a time when stagflation is already a significant concern. This could lead to a new cycle of inflation, undermining any temporary relief provided by the basic income and exacerbating the economic crisis.
The introduction of UBI could also have unintended consequences for the labor market. With a guaranteed income, some workers may opt to leave the workforce altogether, leading to a further decline in productivity and economic output. This could create a vicious cycle in which the government is forced to print more money to fund the program, leading to even higher inflation and a deeper economic crisis.
As the U.S. grapples with its domestic economic challenges, its influence on the global stage is likely to weaken significantly. Economic difficulties at home will limit the U.S.’s ability to project power abroad, creating a power vacuum that other nations will be eager to fill. This shift in the global balance of power could lead to increased competition among global and regional powers, raising the risk of conflicts in various parts of the world.
In regions like the South China Sea, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East, the absence of strong U.S. leadership could lead to instability as emerging powers assert their influence. This could strain international alliances and complicate efforts to address global challenges, from climate change to security concerns.
The weakening of U.S. influence on the global stage could also have broader implications for global stability. As the U.S. retreats from its role as the guarantor of global order, other nations will be more inclined to pursue aggressive policies, leading to a more fragmented and unstable world.
While the economic downturn expected by 2026 will be severe, it is not the end of the world. Humanity has faced and overcome greater challenges in the past, and there is potential for recovery and renewal. However, the path forward will involve difficult adjustments, with widespread economic and social impacts.
This period of economic stress could lead to a reevaluation of existing economic models. The process will be challenging, but it also presents opportunity.

The guy who helped stage 9-11 then worked with the press to cover his tracks. Starting 20 years of war in Afghanistan, thousands lost their lives, but he and his globalist friends got rich. AND with him is his daughter, who helped plan J6 and then got on a committee that destroyed evidence that would have cleared all prisoners, but she protected herself and her globalist friends. It seems like treason runs in that family.
