    When Foreign Companies who are building extremely complex products,
    machines, and various other “things,” come into the United States with massive Investments, I want them to bring their people of expertise for
    a period of time to teach and train our people how to make these very
    unique and complex products, as they phase out of our Country, and back
    into their land. If we didn’t do this, all of that massive Investment
    will never come in the first place — Chips, Semiconductors, Computers,
    Ships, Trains, and so many other products that we have to learn from
    others how to make, or, in many cases, relearn, because we used to be
    great at it, but not anymore. For example, Shipbuilding, where we used
    to build a Ship a day and now, we barely build a Ship a year. I don’t
    want to frighten off or disincentivize Investment into America by
    outside Countries or Companies. We welcome them, we welcome their
    employees, and we are willing to proudly say we will learn from them,
    and do even better than them at their own “game,” sometime into the not
    too distant future!

    And whattayouknow. Who do you think swallowed the bait? And then some.
    The blue eyed Finnskies have agreed to build seven icebreakers in the US.

    It's almost as if Trump knew who he was talking about!

    Make US great at icebreakers again.

    Meanwhile, Trump putting 100% tariffs for China. Haven't we seen this
    movie before.

    I'm just wondering whether I should buy crashing stocks or skyrocketing
    gold?

    I'm sure the announcement was planned to benefit insiders, and
    Trump has no intention of following through. But as for crypto,
    the market had been pumping for no reason for the last week and
    bitcoin hit multiple all-time highs, it was obviously going to
    crash. Eventually the market will stabilize but for now you can
    profit from the volatility, just have to manage your risk (hedge
    with perps, for instance).

    Oh, no, the value is gone even before I invested in it. Damn. :)

    Seriously, takes 6 years to fly there, and the window with Mars
    propulsion opens every 2 years. Psyche isn't even coming back, which
    would be even more complicated.

    So I guess we could all bathe in gold at earlies in about 20 years?
    Of course we may need a couple decades more to master space mining.
    Unless the chinese can do that already.

    So yes, the current problem will be whether the gold price will fall
    after I buy it & to choose between gold britannia, buffalo or maple
    leaf. Or the cheaper option of gold bar.
    Wisest would likely be to put money in gold etf but what's the fun in that!

    But by Jove the price is high currently. One oz (31g) gold coin is
    currently 4000 dollars, and little less euros. One coin.

    The point is, if the value of gold comes primarily from scarcity
    then you're only a large discovery or two away from losing your
    shirt. That discovery may be out of reach for now, but surely
    there are massive gold deposits we haven't found on earth yet.

    Practically speaking, gold is a pain at any kind of scale. Do you
    have the space and security to store it effectively? How will you
    sell it when needed? In some kind of societal collapse, it'd
    likely get taken by looters and you'd be left with nothing for all
    your efforts...

    I'm not arguing crypto solves it all, but it has its place.
    You're a perma-hater and that's OK. If you're happy sticking
    exclusively to trading papers and spanish doubloons, more power to
    you :)
