Ideas
Tesla can fall further or bust.
Clem warns Tesla can fall much further, potentially 75% or 90%, or even go bust, because demand will suffer in the current environment despite its cash; he treats Tesla as a canary for mega-cap tech downside.
US equities face severe crash risk.
Clem expects a broad US equity market crash because tariffs, DOGE spending cuts, and geopolitical threats are hitting simultaneously and too quickly, potentially draining about 6% of GDP; he sees the market in free fall and warns of possible 25%, 30%, 50%, or even 75% declines with no clear bottom yet.
Stay completely in cash now.
Clem says he is completely in cash and went risk-off on March 4 because the simultaneous tariff, government-cutting, and geopolitical shocks make risk assets dangerous to hold.
Europe rises into a superpower.
Clem is bullish on Europe because US withdrawal forces Europe to integrate and rearm, creating a United States of Europe that he expects to become a superpower within 10 years given its large population and economic scale.
Dollar weakens; euro gains relatively.
He sees the US dollar at risk because the Trump administration's overlapping policy shocks are damaging America's safe-haven status, while the euro is just as good and Europe is rising; money may rotate to safer alternatives.

Precious metals and gold rise long-term.
Clem bought precious metals and expects them to be the least dodgy place to be; after a near-term margin-call hit, he expects precious metals to do very well because gold is the war and extreme-risk currency and central banks, especially China, are buying.
Defense stocks go up on conflict.
Clem specifically likes European defense stocks because Europe is being forced to rearm and become self-reliant after the US pulls back; he sold a favorite defense name only to rebuy after the market storm passes.
Banks will do very well.
Clem expects banks to do very well after the forced-liquidation phase, even though he says it is weird; he offers no detailed reason beyond the sector being a post-crisis winner.
Agriculture stocks benefit from conflict.
He expects agricultural stocks and agriculture suppliers to do really well because they are among the sectors that perform well in conflict and a disrupted global economy.
Luxury, travel, retail get smashed.
Clem expects luxury goods, travel, and retail to do badly because they sit high on the value chain and will be smashed as wealth and demand fall; he specifically says investors would not want to be in Louis Vuitton.
Mag Seven mega-caps face crushing losses.
He expects the Magnificent Seven mega-cap tech complex to be crushed, saying the decline has not even started, because US equities are overvalued and the policy and geopolitical shock will force a severe de-rating.
Bitcoin can pop on flight demand.
Clem says Bitcoin is a flight asset: if people need to get out of Dodge or a geopolitical shock approaches, they buy Bitcoin first, so it can pop; recent strength may also reflect hedge unwind and short covering, making it a setup to watch rather than a clean directional call.
Bonds rally as investors seek safety.
Clem expects bonds to rally as investors run for cover from equities into the senior market, pushing interest rates lower during the liquidation and chaos.
