Is the diamond and gold bubble starting to burst? That cannot be good.

If it's a bubble, sooner is better than later for bursting

The gold bubble has been bubbling since about 2006 when the first cracks started showing in the banking industry. Diamonds have been building a bubble since the mid twentieth century, when De Beers started trying to convince everybody that industrial diamonds weren't the same as naturally occurring diamonds and that the latter were still rare.

The generation that still thinks diamonds can only be found in streams in the Congo by a few intrepid adventuring souls is (literally) dying out. We all now know that they can be cranked out by the truckload of industrial machines and even if they aren't they are dug out of hellish mines by borderline slave labor. And they all glitter the same, and are all the same carbon. That artificial diamond scarcity and artificial distinction is long overdue for ending. Trouble is a lot of people have a lot of savings tied up in diamonds, both directly in the rocks themselves and indirectly in the associated industries.

The gold bubble's a bit of an odd one because it feels about the same as the current bubble in the stock market - yeah, in some sense, it's overvalued vis-a-vis fundamentals, but the problem is that there's nowhere else better to put your fucking money because everything is such hot shit.

The diamond thing I don't even know that's probably going to suck.

Invest in weapons industries and security industry suppliers, those are growth industries right now. I think we're probably due a new tech bubble for surveillance tech and counter surveillance tech, but it is hard to get data on that one due to the secretive nature of those developments. I'd buy into GM foods though, the techbros are getting their Randian message on food labeling laws onto the statute books and are working heavily to ridicule people who prefer non-GM. Plus the UK market is about to crack wide open to American GM foods as part of the Trump-Brexit free trade agreement that the English PM will have to sign (she's really got no option) so there are some good short term profits there for the next few years.

I would say there is very few safe physical money dumps though. Avoid rare automobiles though, people are starting to cash out of their investment machines so there are more "classics" coming onto the market. Prices can only go down on those now.

Genetically modified food is mostly safe

Many things are considered mostly safe, doesn't mean I want to eat them. Take it back to the gulch, techbro.

I've never owned diamonds in my life. I was getting a new battery for my watch.
