Macroeconomic Turnaround in 2025

Last year witnessed dramatic shifts in the money/debt/market/economy dynamics. The narrative everyone focused on—US stock strength and AI rally—actually masked the real story underneath.

Here's the kicker: The dollar's sharp depreciation was the game-changer. While traders cheered tech gains, the greenback's collapse fundamentally reshaped portfolio flows and asset valuations. Understanding this currency headwind matters more than chasing the headline gainers.

2025 proved that macro forces, not just sectoral hype, drive markets.

The devaluation of the US dollar has been evident for a long time. Everyone is focused on AI hitting the daily limit, but they haven't realized that the exchange rate is the real game-changer.

The real culprit is the depreciation of the US dollar. Those who only chase AI gains haven't really understood the situation.

The devaluation of the US dollar, I've seen it coming a long time ago. Back then, I was fully invested and adding to my positions for this reason. Now, my faith has finally been validated. The bull market is here, everyone. It's time to buy the dip!

The devaluation of the US dollar has been overlooked for too long. Everyone is hyping AI and tech stocks, but little do they realize that the exchange rate is the real behind-the-scenes driver. --- Honestly, macroeconomic changes are much more impactful than just chasing concepts. Finally, someone sees through this by 2025. --- No wonder so many people got caught last year, only focusing on the rise of big tech stocks, completely failing to understand how dollar devaluation disrupts the market. --- When the dollar drops, capital flows shift again. That’s the real game changer, much more reliable than any AI concept. --- Oh my god, finally someone has pierced through this facade... Everyone is immersed in the AI dream, who the hell cares about macroeconomics? --- The crypto circle has long seen through this: a weak dollar, massive liquidity infusion, asset revaluation—it's all one logical line.

The devaluation of the US dollar has really been underestimated by the market. Everyone is just focused on hype around AI and hasn't paid attention to the underlying changes in logic. --- Year of macro adjustments. Just looking at tech stocks hitting daily limits and thinking you've made money? Wake up, the real puppet master is the US dollar. --- This is the truth. Old-timers in the crypto world have known for a long time what dollar devaluation means, but traditional finance is only now catching on. --- So, the most important thing to watch in 2025 isn't individual stocks, but macro flows... Unfortunately, retail investors are always chasing stories. --- Dollar collapse, asset valuation reshaping... this chain of logic is intense. --- I told you, no matter how hot AI gets, it can't hide the currency wars. Macro is the ultimate game.

Everyone is hyping AI stocks, but the real game-changer is the depreciation of the US dollar? I need to ponder this logic... --- When the dollar collapses, many people's holdings also avalanche, yet they're still here analyzing how many points chip stocks gained haha --- Macroeconomic fundamentals are the key, don't be fooled by the false fire of tech stocks --- It was the same last year, seemingly glorious on the surface, but behind the scenes, the exchange rate had already decided everything, it's incredible --- Dollar collapse really rewrote the game rules, is there still anyone who hasn't realized it?

The devaluation of the US dollar has been obvious for a long time. Some people are only focused on hyping AI, but in reality, liquidity is the real culprit behind the scenes.
