Over the weekend, Ripple surged by over 50 percent in value, as the pre-agreed retail pump sent the cryptocurrency surging higher.<\/p><p>Just a few days prior, the forum groups started to set their sights on Dogecoin. This particular digital asset is known to have particularly bad fundamentals; however, the forum groups once again proved their ability to move markets. Silver was also in the sights of the forum boards on Thursday.<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/319C7df\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silver<\/a> is an entirely different animal. Rising silver prices have huge implications globally, especially in the real economy. The price of silver is said to be dramatically manipulated by market forces. <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/35Gi5Ko\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">JP Morgan<\/a> in particular are exposed if the price of silver moves dramatically higher.<\/p><p>Something else to consider is pension funds. If pension funds and 401k\u2019s are somehow brought into the ongoing battle then this could have serious implications for the real economy. Many of these funds are index links, and if for instance the <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3mx6EMD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">S&amp;P 500<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2Zmw200\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Apple<\/a> are targeted, and start to take heavy losses, then the situation could quickly get out-of-control.<\/p><p>It is worth noting that this coming attack on Wall Street has been years in the making.
