FROM STANSBERRY RESEARCH
Post-Election Bitcoin Warning
According to the man who has called nearly every bubble of the last 25 years, Bitcoin owners should get ready to pay back all the gains they've seen the last few months...
The reason why is a new crisis most investors don't know about... which could soon have a dramatic impact on your wealth – whether you own cryptocurrency or not.
Dan Ferris has built a reputation for getting it right, especially when it comes to big crashes. That's why his work is followed by employees at Wells Fargo, Barclays, UBS, and the Royal Bank of Canada.
Now, he is urging the public to prepare for a historic reversal, like nothing most Americans alive today have ever seen. Not just in crypto assets, but in almost all assets. (Except for a select group of investments that could move significantly higher.)
