Japan's government plans to actively manage nearly ¥100 trillion (approximately €588 billion) in public pension reserves. These funds will be consolidated into a second pension fund, mirroring the strategies of the world's largest pension fund, the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), which boasted assets of ¥226.4 trillion by the end of 2023. The GPIF annually funds about 10% of the basic pension received by every citizen.
Germany is also considering the introduction of a partial equity pension system.
This indicates a future where stock markets are increasingly influenced by these substantial public funds. So we can be sure that stock markets will be manipulated with ever tighter holding lines in the future, as the Ponzi scheme of pension insurance relies on inflationary prices.
That is bullish!

That will need much more time and pain

GPIF isn't doing so good despite "active management"

Pretty interesting, and the big question is when will these extremely large pension funds allocate a % to bitcoin?
We already see this happening with the Wisconsin Pension fund. I think it is just a matter of time before many other funds start capitulating and start allocating.
It will happen quickly!

I’m quite surprised to know that they have so much in their public reserve funds actually

I wonder if it will even help the situation?

‘Opinions differ on what will cause the next financial crisis. Some expect the rapid growth in government debt to cause problems; others think real estate will be a source of instability. The history of finance suggests trouble often begins in areas people mistakenly believed were safe. Either way, it seems likely that observers of financial crises will not have to wait too long for the next case study.’
