This is something I’ve said before to friends, but its more and more true every day. I can’t understand why any investor, in plain 2026, would put a single penny in the U.S. considering:
- Everyone is Investing in Gold(including central banks), showing nobody trusts the dollar anymore.
- The Dollar fell so much(over 15% against some currencies) that, if you invested in the S&P 500 in 2025, you most likely lost money(it only went up ~16%).
- Their economy is Data center Dependent: Excluding data center construction, their GDP only went up 0.1% in 2025, a recession.
- The U.S. government is making up economic data: Ever since they fired the Labor Statistics Chief, none of the data made sense and its always revised down extremely.
- The United States is run by a dictator(yet to be recognized internationally as such, but will), so the economy/currency is NOT to be trusted.
- All foreigners are in danger in the country: I don’t understand why anyone even goes there, as they have often disappeared and tortured immigrants, tourists and even natives.
- The country is declaring war on everyone: Economic and Military, which means unstable and unpredictable economy and society.
- Government run scams: Trump Coin, Then his wife’s coin, then Trump phones which never delivered, then a ballroom that gets 100 million dollars more expensive every week(and asking for donations), etc.
- Government threatning and trying to control the Central Bank: This ALWAYS leads to hyper inflation.
- American Society on the brink of Civil War
- Debt out of Control: Government, Enterprises and citizens in the US are all in debt.
How is the U.S. any better to invest on than Russia or North Korea?
