My vaticinations for 2023:

Ukraine will continue to be a quagmire with the possibility of being another Afghanistan; the US and Russia have a familiar pattern to fall back into. US service deaths will be minimized by the fawning press as 'advisors lost to secure democracy'.

Consumers will continue to get squeezed between high prices and lack of supply. Amazon will continue to contract operations and local retail will get looted into oblivion.

Inflation and interest rates will rise sharply as Congress continues to spend like a drunk with a stolen credit card. Powell's tenure will be criticized as a Trump apointee, Biden's reconfirmation conveniently forgotten. Congress will make noise about wanting to replace him.

Stocks, bonds, and crypto down sharply. Metals will have a small bump but nothing worthwhile. Crypto regulations gain steam in the legislatures, IRS enforcement ramps up for small transactions.

Housing will start to crack up, prices will fall but not fast enough. Lots of shadow inventory will be kept off the market. Certain locales will institute eviction moratoriums.

Illegal immigration will accelerate. Lots of Chinese incoming to escape Xi.

Birth and marriage rates continue to fall in the West, sex dolls rise to fill the gap.

The suddenlies, cancer, and cardiac events become the Grim Reaper's most favored methods.

SBF will go missing either in life or from monitored release.

Karl will, sadly, not receive the visit from the Dallas Cheerleader squad he's been so eagerly awaiting.

Aside from that, everything is looking brilliant! The above mentioned comes with a money back guarantee if not satisfied, certain limitations apply.
