Clairvoyance 1

Post by BearBones »

If, in a brief moment of clairvoyance, you somehow knew with certainty that one of the 4 HB assets was going to lose 75% of its value during the next 3 years (but you did not know which one), which one would you guess it would be?

Interesting. So far most voting for LTTs. Is there really any way for cash to be the first? Seems this would indicate currency collapse/hyperinflation. In this case, wouldn't LTTs invariably lead the way?

You did say 3 years, otherwise I think more votes would have gone towards gold.
