We celebrate Newton as the man who explained gravity 🍎✨ — the scientist who could map the motion of planets and predict the behavior of the universe.
But in the early 1700s, even he was pulled into something far more unpredictable than physics: human behavior. 🧠🔥
Newton invested in the South Sea Company — a government-backed venture designed to manage British national debt. On paper, it looked legitimate. Promising. Revolutionary. 📜💰
At first, he played it perfectly.
He bought early.He watched the price rise. He sold for an amazing profit — about £7,000. 📈✅ Disciplined. Logical. Brilliant.
But then the frenzy intensified. 🎈🔥
Prices kept soaring. Friends and colleagues were getting richer by the day. The excitement was contagious. The narrative was unstoppable. “This time is different.” 😬📊
So Newton re-entered the market — near the peak.
And when the bubble burst… 💥📉
He lost more than £20,000 — the equivalent of $20–30 million today🤯🤯🤯

Afterward, he famously admitted:
“I can calculate the motions of the heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.”
During the frenzy around the South Sea Company — much like during speculative manias such as the Dutch tulip boom — investors were absolutely convinced they were witnessing a new financial era. 🌷💎💎💎
They poured in life savings.They dismissed skeptics. They believed it could not collapse. Until it did.
So here is a question worth sitting with — calmly, professionally, and honestly:
When every generation believes its new asset is revolutionary… when crowds insist “this is not a pyramid”… when savings flow in faster than understanding… Are we certain we are witnessing innovation — or are we simply watching another beautifully packaged pyramid take shape, just as investors once did before the fall?

🇨🇳 China vs Taiwan: The #1 Global Market Threat 🇹🇼
As geopolitical tensions rise, China’s potential invasion of Taiwan remains one of the biggest black swans for global markets. Here’s why it matters — and how it could shock the entire world economy.
🔥 What’s the deal?
China views Taiwan as a breakaway province. Taiwan, on the other hand, acts as a fully self-governed democracy.
In recent years, China has increased military pressure — with airspace violations, war games, and political threats.
Many experts believe the chance of conflict is increasing over the next 5–10 years.
🏭 Why Does It Matter So Much?
🖥️ TSMC, located in Taiwan, produces over 90% of the world’s most advanced semiconductors. These chips power everything:
→ iPhones 📱
→ AI servers 🤖
→ Military tech 🚀
→ Cars 🚗
→ Laptops 💻

📉 What happens to the markets?
It would be catastrophic for risk assets.
Here’s a quick impact breakdown:
🚫 Tech stocks collapse – Apple, Nvidia, AMD, and others rely heavily on TSMC
🔗 Supply chains freeze – Delays in phones, computers, vehicles, defense equipment
🇺🇸 US & Japan would get involved – Major military & economic conflict
📉 Global equities crash – Risk-off sentiment floods markets
💰 Gold & oil soar – Investors rush to safety & expect energy disruptions
📊What should you do in that case?
✅ Diversify away from only tech
✅ Hold some gold, energy, and defense stocks
✅ Follow geopolitical developments closely
✅ Understand your exposure to Asian supply chains
