we're reaching a global inflection point where asset prices are extremely bubbled, central banks have opened the flood gates on new money supply, US stocks are in euphoric mania land, cost of living comfortably is out of reach for a majority of the world (if you don't factor in credit card debt), and personal debt is beyond sustainable for the long run.
Coming in 2020: bankruptcies as far as the eye can see and debt negotiator businesses booming, Gold hits $3000 and Silver hits $50-100 at least, Bitcoin hits $40,000, global Housing prices drop by 50%, US stocks panic sell in February and dead cat bounce in early summer, homeless rates triple, poor crop yields and mass pig deaths from 2019 cause temporary food shortage and spikes in food prices, social unrest reaches crescendo, Record number of big box stores close, Amazon struggles along with courier businesses, Facebook continues to decline and is caught red-handed fabricating views and clicks (this one is highly speculative and totally out of context, but I have a strong gut feeling about it).
If non of that occurs in 2020, consider it a miracle. I could post a massive list of things that have a chance of happening, but the above list has a high probability in my mind.
I don't think we can extrapolate where Bitcoin is headed, because Bitcoin's entire lifespan has existed inside of a Central Bank bubble, and that bubble is about to grow exponentially in some ways that will benefit the price of Bitcoin, but will be deflationary for people's net worth. looking even further down the road, Without a wealth tax the US government is going to go bankrupt (technically it already is) either under Trump or a Democratic President, take your pick. With a wealth tax will come asset devaluation, bankruptcies, mergers, more wealth disparity, and eventually just like with income tax the wealth tax will hit anyone with a positive net worth.
this leaves Bitcoin with no other choice but to shoot for the moon, far beyond what historical logarithmic trends would suggest. A global reset will be pure chaos for 3-6 months, and it would be better if it happens in 2020 with all the proverbial stars aligned, than for it to occur later, because if it occurs later then the bottom 99% suffer for longer. Either way, Bitcoin and precious metals are currently undervalued by a factor of 10 in my opinion, but they can still be squeezed lower in the short term before 2020.
You may be right on some of this, though I am curious, why do you see bitcoin gold and silver (as well as other assets) going up, yet you see housing prices going down?
technically the numeric prices of houses may not actually go down, but your share will decrease starting in 2020 as shared equity mortgages become mainstream. When the price of a house goes up, normally you gain numerically, but with shared equity the banks get to sell that numerical gain to investors. You will probably hear arguments that shared equity is meant to lower the price of a home for a first time buyer, but it will impact all home owners as the value of fiat plummets but the stake you have in your home remains at the same numeric amount.
This could actually trigger a home price meltdown I think later when investors want a larger cut of the equity and start buying out the remaining share of the home from the people living in it.
But short term the equity people think they have in their homes is going to shrink in real value as investors steal the rest, which I think will lead to homeowners selling off their equity for liquidity, and causing a buyers market.
edit as for bitcoin, gold and silver going up, the extreme excess liquidity that's ramping up will need to go somewhere, and while it has initially gone into stocks, its not going to stay there, and banks don't offer any meaningful gains on any investments they offer (and average annual rate of return is an obvious scam), so the only thing left is metals and any other safe haven, and the liquidity that gets funneled into real estate isn't going to help home owners, aside from short term liquidity if they choose to sell off their equity.
2nd edit I guess I should clarify. If you are someone that ones your own house outright with no mortgage or line of credit, and you are financially well off, then none of the above applies to you. If you do have a mortgage or a line of credit that you can't pay off in full without needing time, then you may find your bank contacting you soon to "offer" you a shared equity mortgage, with the alternative being that you pay off your line of credit immediately (as these are often business related), or if you simply have a mortgage you are paying then they may offer reduced payments if you switch to a shared equity mortgage.
I agree with your theory about the excess money, though I just also think it will prop up housing prices and just about all assets across the board. Anyone who already owns a house (or land) will be happy.
