I awoke from my humble abode to discover this article on the News Page.
Breaking point: World financial system as stretched as before 2008 crash, says banker

I have noticed an influx of this sort of news lately and I want consumers and investors to understand something called the Business Cycle. The Business Cycle is in essence looks something like this
A simple graph which basically explains that has time goes on there are periods of growth and periods of decline which are driven by the expectations of the people versus what will actually happen.
Then what If I told you that by using the tools available to them the whales could essentially use this phenomenon to there advantage, take the classical FUD's that have occurred within the crypto community as an example of what could happen and apply that to the classical financial markets of stocks and bonds and then furthermore times the impact of the FUD by 1000.
What am I coming to?. I am coming to the inevitable possibility that perhaps to some extent these financial dooms have purpose to them, a vast majority of the MSM is influenced by the Stock Whales. If you are seeing a lot of doom and gloom than there really should be in journalism then obviously they want the public to think a certain way.
If investors think a financial crisis is coming then they will sell off there stocks , If investors sell off there stocks the market price will fall. If the market price falls then current investors will panic and may sell off there stocks. This process will continue until the price plummets in panic. Then you will have the financial crisis.
In other words, simply investors thinking there will be a market crash will contribute to there actually being one. Make sure to stay vigilant when watching any sort of media and fact check everything that is "Your Money Your Life" (YMYL).
And don't forgo the possibility that the insider traders have already sold there stock off and are shorting the market in anticipation of a market crash.
Just a rant I felt was necessary
