Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
I don't pretend to be an expert but am I wrong in my understanding that when the crash happens, it'll ripple all across the world because of how tied to the dollar the entire world is? That's basically what happened in 08, no?
The real question I'm asking is: is there anywhere in the world to put money where it'll be safe or at least less affected, to mitigate the inevitable crash?
That will definitely be happening, and countries that rely heavily on trade with US will end up being dragged down with them. In general, I expect that BRICS countries will be better off while G7 ones will be worse off.
Amusingly, Russia might be the one country that's best prepared for this because of the forced decoupling with the west. China has also been working on creating a dual circulation economy. The strategy focuses on domestic market, or internal circulation, to adapt to an unstable international trade environment. https://chinapower.csis.org/china-covid-dual-circulation-economic-strategy/
Housing I’d guess.
