You know you could do something funny (not you personally, but you Norway, even though I know you already said the fund manager won't do it)

You could protect your own assets by pulling it all out of the US stock market. And as a result you could kick off the cascading effect of a bear market and cause this bubble to finally burst.

In fact every European country invested in the US market and reserve currency petrodollars could choose to do the same thing, on the same day.

You could use it as leverage to negotiate with the insane current regime. Or you could just take off the kiddie gloves and do it without warning.

Protect your financial futures and your sovereignty, and help us topple our corporate overlords and global hegemony.

I know it's not up to the average citizen though, and the people who have the power to do so are probably making too much bank from ~~bribes~~ donations to do it...
