Predictions for 2022

Predictions are stupid and since blogging I’ve realized what’s hot in the beginning of the year often gets completely destroyed and turned upside down by late in the year. Having said that, and also bearing in mind that most of my predictions in the past were heavily influenced by recency bias, I’m going to do that opposite for my 2022 predictions.

Inflation will peak and commodities will collapse
Tech stocks will rebound sharply
COVID will disappear, the vaccines and boosters will be proven successful
Biotech stocks will do best followed by tech. Basic materials will do worst
Lockdowns and mandates will cease to exist. People will forget they ever happened
Democrats will increase seats in congress and do great in 2022 elections
TWTR will hit a new record high
Hedge fund managers will become stylish again
Crypto popularity will peak and prices will triple
TSLA will be cut in half
The Mets will win the World Series
Biden popularity will skyrocket
Real estate prices will finally drop, enabling people to better afford homes
Democrats and Republicans will unite in their love for country
No wars in 2022. Biden will ink a peace treaty with Russia
Chinese stocks will soar, led by BABA
Trust in media will recover; CNN ratings will be #1
Traditional women will beat trans-women in all sporting events
Cruise ships will be booked solid throughout 2022
Crime rates will collapse
The Trump library will be built in San Francisco
“The Fly” will be super happy, dedicate his Twitter feed for good news only.
