2026 - Plan for the Worst and Hope for the Best. A TooFuckeh problem to solve.
I have been monitoring some macro-economic plays unfolding all over the world, This morning, I watched and listened carefully to Donald J Trump, President of United States delivering his speech at Davos 2026 World Economic Forum. It reassured me to continue with the measures I have in place in case the unknown is a collapse of world financial markets.
From The PEPT Game perspective, it doesn't matter where you live. I have been saying that World War 3 has been in effect for a few years. Not talking about total annihilation of the planet. I am talking about the impact of macro-economics gone wrong, ie corruption and the breakdown of law and order within government systems, including world trade agreements.
When you live next door to an elephant that is not happy with what it has and is clearly prepared to extend its roaming range, a wise mouse needs to out play its predator.
Current Equity Market Comparison
The USA equity market is second to none in the world. Their population is over 8 times larger than Canada and their equity market is 15-20 times larger. Are they too big to fail?
The Stock Market Response
Looks like a long period of high tide. These charts are not that dissimilar to other countries in the world doing business with USA. The USA doesn't have the attenuation in its marketplace as in say, Canada.
How about debt?
Now imagine the worst thing that could happen in a financial war.
While I wait for the unknown to happen, I am taking a position where I plan for an eventual change in the economic power of USA. This includes the impact of the world requiring fewer US$ and using less non-renewable energy.
Gold
Gold has been a go to for many years when there is lots of fear and unknowns in financial systems. Leading to and around 2008 we can see the charts of equities versus gold. Today, gold is screaming louder than ever before with no attenuation.
I don't see me taking my gold to the local grocery store anytime soon. I don't think I am the only one concern about a declining value of the US$. So, my best bet is the CDN$ and other means of trading. Like a digital currency.
Bitcoin
Wow, look at the volatility. How can this be a good trading currency? It is not. It's not even an investment vehicle. It is a means to transfer large chunks of wealth between systems. Given the level of acceptance by the current US administration, Bitcoin could be used to take advantage of US$ movement. The total size of the crypto market is a small fraction of the US equity market. Likely less than 5% would be my guest.
And, 1% of bitcoin accounts control 90% of it value.
Bitcoin can be fun to play with but it does not look like a low risk currency for an economy.
Hive

Some of my greatest returns have come from buying things that most people do not want. Today, Hive is looking pretty good. What's the downside compared to the upside? What could be better?

This is an exciting time for me and I hope it is for those learning to play The PEPT Game. It is possible to engage in a few activities on Hive and earn enough SWAP.HIVE to trade it for some problem solving tokens.
You can pickup 100 tokens for about 0.60 Hive which is less than 6 US cent. Now what is the downside? I suppose, worst case would be losing 6 cents. How about the upside? Well, the current journey is to build a strong foundation at 0.01 Hive so that would be a 66.6% appreciation in the trading price. Plus, you have the ability to add your tokens to a liquidity pool that will further boost the value of your holdings. And, you can stake this token to get gifts from The PEPT TooFuneh Pool.
Well, time to close this blog. Be aware of the risk and reward of your daily activities and review your current Hive Layer 2 token objectives. If you have tokens that clutter your wallet you can gift them to @TooFuneh Reward Pool. They will be put to good use.
When you play The PEPT Game you make changes in your daily activities so you are more productive. In other words, you get more returns from the same amount of effort. If your good and you automate you get more for less effort. Have fun doing something different while you grow digital wealth on Hive. All feedback and questions welcomed.
May Positive pepEntropy be with all Hivers.
