You have lots of ideas. That is more than your average WSB'r. The trick is to spread it around. Some ideas are good, some ideas are shit. What do you know, that most others dont? Then bet on it. BUT NOT THE HOUSE. Dont go trying to make you money back on a stock that fucked you. Just keep coming up with new ideas.

Just crank it up to 10,000 bps so we can somehow all get rich off puts. Think about it, guys!

Came here to point this out. Something tells me Putin wouldn't mind sacrificing a couple million Russians in a war of attrition. If nothing else it probably makes him look more badass in front of his Russian supporters. The longer the war drags on the more harm is done to Ukraine state the longer it takes you can't Ukraine to recover afterwards the less useful Ukraine would be as a NATO Ally. Not saying this is definitely what happens but I don't see the wisdom in ruling this out.

>You should not think all war is confined to conventional arms or insurrectionists.

You're just not paying attention to what I'm saying because you seem to want an argument rather than a discussion.

You just rephrased my entire point as if it was a retort. LOL

You literally just distilled my entire argument into one sentence and then acted like that was somehow correcting me.

Also if the scenario you're talking about happens and world powers fragment and fracture, the Fed Funds Rate's not gonna be a thing anymore. Your entire scenario depends on the continuation of the world power structure, which is the core of my point... once we hit that point where the poison pill makes sense, things have radically changed in much more significant ways.

Why though? Yields to go up because they are betting inflation is not under control? Doesn’t seem to make sense? Are they thinking massive outflows from treasuries to stocks or maybe US government debt issues or possible default or near default? I think the US will turn itself inside out before they default.
