Geopolitical Risk

[Waltzing]

No one is going to help the US now...

Trump a DUMP just got DUMPED on CNBC Europe... will the presenters get fired?

Who makes guns like the germanys?

well it wasnt hard to see all this coming was it.... DUMP wants more Russian money in his coffers..

Musk has lots his mind and doesnt know it or rather was this the real MUSK all along? The Man behind the MASK...

Get a look at those German Guns....

The Germany should have started rearming in 2014 and it was obvious wasnt it...

Anyone living on the Baltic at the time knew it... why did not the Germans rearm...

Imagine where we would be today if Germany has 3000 panzers and new Fighter aircraft and a Navy...

They have the engineers... and now it too late...

That was in my mind in 2014... and i imagined the German forces we would have today... but Merkel was living in some science class room and yet she was East German... She should have known better...

Well, we are really good in setting up huge IT projects which don't deliver, we developed a culture of putting our stone age past over the present and still more - we are the only ones funding to play whale songs to Kauri trees.

 now id you want to know if CHUMP is on your side.. the other side... or just no side... this is a great watch...

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHZWa-Ajbvk

 this US army intel man would be DOGE'd away pretty quick these days..

 and we all should have invested in RMT as they will take over car production plants in germany to make tanks...

RMT is good, but given that most people here probably find it difficult to directly invest into DAX shares ... try ARMR on the ASX. This is an index fund which includes companies like Rheinmetall, but as well a balance of other Nato aligned manufacturers.

Lifted from their factsheet:

ARMR provides exposure to up to 60 leading companies which derive more than 50% of their revenues from the development and manufacturing of military and defence equipment, as well as defence technology, including Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, General Dynamics and Palantir Technologies

Rather new fund, and currently enjoying a healthy SP appreciation.

Not sure would want to invest in anything US military right now as Europe is starting to cancel orders... or behind closed doors is in panic mode. Uk nuclear missiles for their sub.. F35 for their carriers..

When europe sees the ramps for weapons being destroyed at the Air base in Poland by the drunk US idiot and Russian agent in charge at the white house.. the matters are far more serious than anything yet filmed in hollywood.

Every western government is now in crisis and no need to post here anything much...simply because is to big to comment on...

[BlackPeter]

Definitely a valid point. I guess at the end it comes down to the question how long Putins Parrot is going to run the US.

I heard recently that Musk/Trump planned to bring people back into the 1930íes, but did overshoot a bit and landed them in the late 18th century. This was the time of the French revolution.

So - the question is, who is going to run the US after the people stand up and dispose of their strongman, as they always do. Musolini was found hanging under a bridge, Hitler was giving himself a bullet and Luis XVI came under the national razor.

Personally I hope that after the next strongmen disposal event we might be able to side again with the US forces, but yes, you are right - one can't be sure, and it could take its time.

Interesting times, anyway.

[Waltzing]

Deadly dangerous times...
