No, the ground is rising.

In the early 1930's in Germany, they actually had to post signs in the public toilets-
"Please don't wipe your arse with deutschmarks- they clog the toilets and sewers".
If we keep printing dollars, we might just cure the toilet paper shortage. And keep the plumbers busy.

I don’t think this a seasonal thing anymore. The dollar’s quickly becoming worthless and part of me thinks that people are hedging their bets with a real asset.

I’ve been saying that for years, every time someone says the market is crashing. It’s not seasonal. It’s not a serious reply.

If you read my serious replies, I’ve been downplaying the seasonality for years. That’s the joke. I’m mocking the guys who always say that in earnest.

This guy knows what's up. 4 price drops in a week. Smart move, get ahead of a crashing market. $49K to $43K in a matter of days of listing.
https://preview.tinyurl.com/y4tpzoc

$40K to $34K solid 15% drop
https://preview.tinyurl.com/yxjk2be

25% off
https://preview.tinyurl.com/y4vjpjb

But how can this be? These cars are visceral. I say visceral people!!!!! Like all bubbles eventually do, this one has deflated.

That deleted C2 is what ... $70k-$100k now ?

$$$ is no sure bet.

I just PPI'd a 92 C2 Targa at $86K and gave thumbs up on the condition. My client bought the car.

My disclaimer was that although the car was way, way above average, it wasn't perfect and I was not endorsing the dollar value, as I consider the market overheated. After transport, tax & registration, that's almost a $95K purchase...

Prices in U.S. dollars may be changed forever due to the plummeting value of the dollar.

A third of the money printed by the United States in its history has been printed in the last couple of years:



Here is what has happened to the value of your dollars:



Bad time to own money.

Best,

Makes you wonder how a live shell got into a firearm that was said to be shooting blanks. Just waiting because I know The Donald will pipe up about something. He must really hate Alex Baldwin for all the SNL stuff during his presidential glory days...

do 74-77s look flat to the more experienced folks? They seem to be stable based on BAT alone. 5K increase on one 75 from 2019 to 2021.
