Higgenbotham's Dark Age Hovel

[Higgenbotham]

I didn't move as quickly with the conversion from double inverse to triple inverse as planned in this previous post, but as of the end of this week I have converted 93% of my accounts from double inverse to triple inverse. I looked for places where I could likely get a short term bounce when making the conversion, which was difficult. This week, the market was nervous about the inflation number and it will typically have some volatility in front of a release like this so I was able to take advantage of that. Though the volatility was more than I anticipated. I will be looking for someplace to do the last 7% as soon as possible and maybe the 10 year will cross the 5.0 to 5.3 percent area if I am lucky. Crossing 5.3 percent would take the 10 year to the highest level since 2002.

I did the last 7% last week and am 100% in triple inverse. The 10 year has been up to multi year highs the past 2 days, climbing more today, but not over 5.3%. Meantime, some are explaining why that is not a problem. If the stock market collapses, then some will explain why it is a problem after the fact. AI says we're not in a Puetz crash window and it says even if we were it doesn't matter. But we are in a Puetz crash window and the fact nobody is talking about it is a good thing if you are looking for a crash.

I don't know what it will take to break this thing because everything that I thought would has already happened. For instance, birth rates fell for a few years, maybe 7 or 8 years, before the 1929 and 1966 tops but this time around they have already fallen more from the 2007 peak in birth rates, I think it was.



I think they're looking for 3.55 million births this year, down a bit from 2025, which was down a bit from 2024. You can say everything is moving more slowly in the new dark age as all available reserves are used to prop things up.

The country is essentially ungovernable with over 50% of the population locked in terminal Demshevik stupidity.
The model wiring is not overly complicated so it just plods along as they fall farther behind.
Currently 4.2 % short not fighting the tape adding on typical SMA for now.
It will be sudden brutal and just another you do not have to be a Oracle looting cycle top down looks valid.
The numbers look intact on general terms. Noticing they are selling fixtures at Estate Auctions now also.
The surviving Locusts are stripping way over $350,000.00 Houses to the bone now.
I rolled the dice and bid, bought a fixture for 8.00 bucks and 10 minutes drive and less that ten minutes to unwire.
Another Fellow was taking another down that He bought and its waaaaaaay over $400.00 fixture.
I think it went for like 50 bucks told lucky I did not want to mess with it.
I gave Him a Hand for 10 minutes to get it down since He was in rather over His Skis but all good.
As you mentioned valid routes the Wife's 2021 with 65K miles Jeep I bought Her last year was bought from a
Insurance Agency by my Broker that was stolen from Connecticut. Just took it in for a yearly sweep it needed nothing
so I had it flushed anyways as a preventive measure. Way under 60 percent off as a write off for Them. Broker knows Us
as I just drive in a drive one way we settle up a few days later. He gives me prime value when I take any in for the Wife
since He knows we take care and He has a few very Competent Mechanics so far we know.
Anyways, Black Walnut as over 32 board feet went under $ 17.00 so I will be busy this Winter.
I have enough to maple and cherry to trim out over 15 windows or make anything value added for Family.
Black Walnut Wood as now for Lower Quality $3.50 - Mid $6.00 Best $12.00 Per board foot.
