-Fallen heroes: Central banks face credibility crisis as losses pile up...Central bankers have been celebrated as alchemists who saved the world from the abyss. Now that inflation is out of control and losses are looming, they look far less omnipotent >>> they don't have any accountability, they can fail huge, and yet they'll invent a story that this and that happened, and that's why things are screwed..It was them who pushed QE...deal with it now !

-Equity, FTSE100 (has done nothing for 10years..) breaking up (mining, foreign earnings and cheap GBP..), EZ markets outperforming U.S markets into late 2022 and as we kicked-off the new year

we will continue to point out these kind of data/research, Gold, Silver, XPT etc all should do pretty well over next couple of years, as rates peak, Fed does too much eventually etc.
