I’ve been having a conversation with ChatGPT about which traditional stores of value are likely to collapse. Its conclusion…

“Fiat currencies are the most likely to lose their value as a store of wealth first due to inflation, central bank policies and the rise of decentralized alternatives. Art and collectibles could follow, driven by their niche appeal and competition from digital equivalents. Precious metals and real estate are more resilient, with real estate likely to be the last to lose its appeal due to its intrinsic and universal utility.”

It seems the issue of negative equity in the housing market will be well signalled. Take this as your 5 year / 2 year / 6 month (delete as appropriate) warning.
