The Ultraverse



A little perspective for Wednesday morning on our small place in the universe. To our knowledge, earth is the only habitable planet in the ultraverse (collection of universes across all 13 known/proposed dimensions) accessible to humanity at this point in time and is dwarfed by the size of other heavenly bodies. Analogous to this is the role of gold and silver, the only known stores of value out there. Like moths to a light investors flock towards the bright, enormous dense masses of paper whose overwhelming gravity pulls investors in only to scorch them.

As in the ultraverse, there are forces at work in the economy which cannot be sensed directly and are difficult to comprehend. Just because one can not see, touch or feel market cycles and capital flows which draw investors back to earth (gold and silver) like they cannot hear radio waves in their own ears, does not mean they are not out there.
