nobody ever gets Rich when the interest rates are high cuz people can't borrow money is that what you meant the stock market going down was the disruption what other disruption were you alluding to look you can't really watch the stock market you have to do what's right what's up you guys it's grahe here so I don't usually do this but two weeks ago I issued a warning to stock market investors and unfortunately since that video things have gotten a lot worse just today the market has seen its worst drop since 2022 Panic usually creates more panic selling pressure creates more selling pressure and prices are falling purely because prices are falling so similar to my previous video I'd like to help put into perspective exactly what's happening why the market is crashing how things could get worse before they get better and what you could do about it to put yourself ahead financially yes I'm probably going to have to repeat myself a few times but at least you should understand the truth about what's actually going on as soon as you hit the like button and subscribe if you haven't done that already that's all I ask for it helps the channel tremendously and as a thank you for doing that I will do my best to read and reply to as many comments as I can so thanks so much and also big thank you to incog for sponsoring this video but more on that later all right now in terms of why the Market's crashing as of now we have the perfect storm starting with tariffs now here's the thing when it comes to talking about tariffs so far here's how they've worked Trump threatens tariffs by a certain date the market goes down but eventually starts to recover on the day tariffs go into effect the market plunges because no one expected it to actually go through but 24 to 48 hours later an agreement is reached that gives an extension the market goes back up and then the process repeats itself when tariffs go back into effect waiting for another agreement to be reached this volatility starts to give the impression that tariffs have simply been used as a negotiation tool to get more favorable trade deals within the United States but the market never actually priced in the likelihood of them sticking around until this it's currently scheduled that a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum Imports are set to take effect March 12th well a 250% tariff on Canadian dairy products could be next along with a tremendously High tariff on Canadian Lumber shortly afterwards on top of that what's really fueling the tariffs is that he said tariffs may still go up as time goes by now even though that 250% Dairy tariff has largely been debunked as an item that's not even going to begin going into effect since they will be allowed a certain amount of dairy to enter the United States terar free business owners are completely puzzled by what to expect if they to order inventory ahead of time or if they have to start raising prices to cover overhead to which Trump provided no additional information to make matters worse Canada retaliated by enacting 25% tariffs on electricity Imports to New York Minnesota and Michigan starting right now and China SLA back with 15% tariffs on American farm products as a result of this investors are beginning to price in the likelihood of higher prices lower GDP recessionary fears and the potential that things could soon get much much worse but there's a second reason the market could be falling that most people have no idea about and that would be Trump crashing the market on purpose first of all it's important to clarify that this is just a theory but you know what nothing surprises me anymore so here's what we know to be fact right now it's no surprise the government owes a lot of money the national debt is currently sitting at over $36 trillion and that number is only expected to keep going higher which is soon going to cause a lot of problems why well when you have a debt this large you have to pay interest on the debt and when interest rates are at record lows paying off the debt is very easy like imagine it to be like a mortgage taking out a million doll loan at half a percent interest is as simple as spending $5,000 a year to keep current on your monthly payments but what happens when interest rates go up during a time that you're borrowing a lot more money and you've only locked in that record low interest rate for a few years exactly since interest rates have gone up significantly the United States is now spending more money on interest payments than they are on defense for the first time ever in history which is massive and in 2025 there's another $9. 2 trillion worth of debt that needs to be refinanced this means they either need to lock in rates when everything is high or they need to create a market crash which causes interest rates to fall and gives them enough time to lock in interest rates for the next few years again even though a lot of this is just a theory some of it does make a lot of sense because 70% of the $9. 2 trillion debt needs to be refinanced by June 2025 and if nothing is done that debt is scheduled to cost 1% more which is reported to be $156 worth of cost for every $1 of Revenue that the United States generates think about it for Trump this could be a huge win to refinance the national debt at a lower interest rate than usual by forcing the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates like here are some quotes that I pulled from Anthony Pompano who's taken the time to compile some Choice words by Donald Trump here you go I've been saying let's get interest rates down nobody ever gets Rich when the interest rates are high because people can't borrow money interest rates are going down you know what else is going down Energy's going down I'd love to see energy go down is that what you meant the stock market going down was the disruption what other disruption were you alluding to look what I have to do is build a strong country you can't really watch the stock market if you look at China they have a 100-year perspective we have a quarter we go by quarters that's true you can't go by that you have to do what's right all of this Paints the picture that maybe this is his way of reducing the cost of the national debt perhaps he could frame it in such a way that he's making asset prices like stocks real estate and Bitcoin more affordable to middle class Americans by giving them a 10 to 30% discount and if short-term pain is what's needed then he's willing to get there by any means necessary although in terms of how bad things could potentially get you're going to want to take a seat although before we go into that just like it's really important to protect your Investments most people have no idea that their most important asset can actually be their data for instance the number of recent data breaches is growing having increased almost each and every year for the last decade this means like it or not your personal data is probably already floating around on the internet somewhere in the hands of third parties data Brokers and anyone else who might want to Target you this could include your full name social security number home address telephone number email address online contivity and more you could be at risk of having your identity stolen fraudulent loans taken out from under your name or more commonly I guess just getting a bunch of annoying robocallers all day now even though this sounds absolutely horrible the good news is that you have a right to protect your privacy and request the data Brokers delete the information they have about you and our sponsor incog is there to help they could do all the Dirty Work For You by reaching out to data brokers in your behalf requesting that they delete any personal information they have about you and dealing with any objections that third parties might have and since data Brokers often continue collecting information about you even after they've removed it and cogni makes sure your information stays off the market by conducting repeated removal requests all you have to do is create an account grant them the right to work for you and then sit back while they keep you updated every step of the way they're also available risk-free for 30 days so anyone could try it out for themselves and get a full refund if you're not 100% happy

below in the description or go to incognit docomo get started today thank you so much and now let's get back to the video all right now in terms of how bad things could potentially get you're going to want to hear this on a broad scale there are three different types of declines that you're going to want to be made aware of the first is what's known as a stock market correction that's defined as a drop of at least 10% now it's important to recognize that normal volatility throughout the Market is extremely common like since 1920 the S&P 500 has on average seen a 5% pullback three times a year so Random fluctuations happen all the time this is also somewhat the case with Market Corrections which have happened on average every 16 months in fact if you're like me and you like averages so far the average stock market correction has been 15.
6% and lasts for 71. 6 days so it's perfectly normal and every healthy Market sees a regular pullback from time to time however after that we move move on to the more serious category and that would be a bare Market which is defined of at least a 20% drop from the peak and this is where the NASDAQ might soon be approaching according to the data this typically hits every 7 to 10 years and when it hits unfortunately it hits kind of hard during a bare Market the stock market drops on average 33.
