It may not make sense depending on your stack size. I have enough that selling off 1% of my stack can buy me 100 ounces of silver or so, so the equation reads as massive upside with little downside. Charts like pic related scare the living shit out of me.

If I had like a 5k stack I'd probably just batten down and hope the best, since hedging against economic doom would eat into my make-it potential too much.

When I say the situation is so much worse today, I'm not talking about the global geopolitical situation. I'm talking about the largest everything/debt bubble in human history that exists today. Volcker could do what he did because companies weren't levered to the tits like they are now.

I've circled on this chart how overleveraged the US was in 1979 when Volcker made his move, versus today
