Now Krasnov is adding more risk to them. Imagine, allowing crypto.

Krasnov's economic plan is to weaken the dollar and strengthen crypto.

The super rich love economic disasters, they make money off them in a short period of time.

The stock market has become a joke, so overinflated that only the rich can afford to invest in stocks. I just saw where a big bank suggested that people invest 70% bonds - 30% stocks because stocks are so expensive, for the next decade.
