Wow… what a stunning statistic, terrifying when one truly considers that reality, literally 9 of 10 buying fresh air, the very definition of hopium, yet it is that precisely that is on offer, contrast that with an economy like… oh, China, where the statistic noted herein will be the exact inverse still likely I would guess without being privy the full metrics applicable, but nevertheless likely to be a similar 9 to 10 ratio, with the caveat, they are an economy and investment market heavily centric tangibles, manufacturing and supply chains required to support manufacturing at the scale China dominates the globe in…

I know where I want my money to be, that and assets, markets similar, together now buying up anything that owns or is engaged in real stuff, mining for example comprised only of companies actually engaged in mining, buying companies with great track records, not buying akin as so well Opined in this article… Intangibles, the intangibles equivalent for mining being companies owning licenses to mine, yet haven’t yet mined or have no track record of having successfully mined resources.. they need to be avoided at all costs or at best I would only commit 1 - 1.5% maximum of a portfolios value into such… the risk simply to great.

I agree every company needs to start and how can they start unless backed, my retort is simply, they and myself are more than happy they get backing just not from me, I’d prefer to forgo the big hit of a 10 - 12 bagger+ to gaining 3/4x doing so after a company proves resource and has mined whatever it is they are mining… otherwise you might as well hit the casino with your hard earned.. truly enjoyed this read… just saying..
