We're hearing more and more about how the CRE market could crumble soon, and take down some banks with it.
But what exactly is CRE, what's wrong with it, and why is it so important?

🤓 What is CRE?
First of all, what exactly is the Commercial Real Estate or CRE market, and what are its components?
To keep it simple, the CRE market can be divided into six main sectors:
Office, Retail, Industrial, Multi-Family Property, Hospitality, and Special Purpose.

To keep it simple, the CRE market can be divided into six main sectors:
Office, Retail, Industrial, Multi-Family Property, Hospitality, and Special Purpose.
To break it down further:
Offices = urban high-rises or suburban offices/campuses
Retail = shopping centers (strip or regional malls) + stand alone stores or big-boxes, like Home Depot or Krogers
Industrial = warehouses, manufacturing, and distribution centers 👇

Apart from a softer dollar providing a general lift following weeks of strength, we are seeing increased speculation that the Chinese government may step up its support for the economy and some signs that demand is holding up
Overall, the Bloomberg Commodity Index remains down 8% on the year with losses being led by the energy sector, not least a 56% slump in US natural gas, as well as industrial metals suffering from a so far, less commodity intensive post-pandemic recovery in China. 
*Hyperinflation*
With inflation soaring the past two years, this term is being thrown around quite a bit recently.
And people are starting to wonder: Could the USD hyperinflate?

🤔 What is hyperinflation?
First, hyperinflation is when a currency experiences extraordinary and accelerating rates of inflation
The currency's value falls so quickly it becomes virtually worthless
So, people resort to using alternative forms of money or bartering.

Though incredibly subjective, the academic definition for hyperinflation is when a country experiences inflation rates above 50% per month. Not before that.
49% = “regular inflation” and 50% = “hyperinflation”

The #silver market has fundamentally changed due to the Mexican gov's anti-mining rules.
First, remember that according to the @SilverInstitute, silver is already in a 24% supply deficit:

So where does supply come from? Mexico.
It's worse than 23% of supply. Most PRIMARY silver mines (not copper mines where you stumble into some silver) are in Mexico.
This is the path the Roman empire went down. Reduce the metal content of the coins ... make the money worthless.
This is late stage empire type of stuff.
None of own enough #gold and #silver.

Quarters until 1964 were 90% silver and 10% copper.
Quarters now are 91.67% copper and 8.33% nickel.
So now even that is getting too expensive for them and they want to use even cheaper metals to make our coins.
Next step is just all digital, zero metal.
Worthless currency.

What is a recession, and before predicting any, how can we tell that we are, in fact, in one?
Well, using various economic definitions and descriptions, a recession is simply a period of economic decline lasting at least six months
Indicators of a recession include:
• a decrease in GDP,
• rising unemployment,
• and reduced spending by consumers and businesses.

Another Fed Meeting, another decision based on flawed metrics. One of them is the new CPI. Or shall I say the *New New CPI*?
Because the calculation has been sneakily adjusted again recently, and yes, it matters. Why and how?

First, for those who are new to the whole Fed Shell Game, or if you need a little refresher, a quick review of CPI:
The Consumer Price Index, also known as CPI, is the benchmark for U.S. inflation as calculated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (the BLS).

You may have noticed recent controversy about the accuracy of the CPI and whether the BLS is understating inflation
People ask every time a new CPI reading is released: how can the prices of groceries, cars, houses, be so inflated, yet the CPI rises only a fraction of that?

Thought of the day: Return compounding is all about timeframes in #cyclicals, 10x over 5 years reinvested in 10x over 5 years reinvested in 10x over 5 years with 1-2 year waiting between reinvestment = 1000x over 17-19 years. Are you formulating your compounding plan?
Our working example:
$BTU from $1.21 = 13x < 30 months
deployed into:
$IREN from $1.32 = expect 10x over 48 months
deployed into:
Unknown at this time = 8x
Total return = >1000x
$BTU from $1.21 = 13x < 30 months
deployed into:
$IREN from $1.32 = expect 10x over 48 months

As #silver sentiment collapses again and the equities have been left for dead, let's look at the big picture.
#silver is a supply deficit play. 3 things to know:
1) 73% of mined silver is a byproduct of copper/zinc/lead/gold. CapEx is declining in 2023. /1

In other words, the companies producing silver don't care about silver. There won't be a supply response to higher silver demand.
Also, there are very few primary silver miners as AISC is about $20 and high-quality deposits are very rare. /2

As a result, silver supply peaked in 2016, driven by the 2010-2013 metals CapEx binge.

There's a joke in mining that if goldbugs are crazy, then silver enthusiasts are truly deranged.
The boldest silver investors ever were oil billionaire brothers, Nelson Bunker and William Herbert Hunt, who tried to corner the market in the late '70s as a hedge against inflation.

This sent silver prices soaring from $6 per ounce a year earlier to $50 per ounce in January 1980. However, the US government stepped in and the market crashed quickly. The Hunt Brothers lost an estimated $1.75 billion and faced numerous lawsuits and legal battles.

Is it due to overwhelming physical demand? If so, why are premiums on physical products collapsing?
