I don’t invest in the stock market and my understanding of it is rudimentary at best. I’ve read a couple articles from here about what’s happening but don’t really understand.

Can y’all help me understand what’s going on in layman terms?

person 1 has an apple tree, person 2 sells apples, as its looks like the apple tree is going to have a bad year person 2 sells the apples in advanced to person 3, person 2 was wrong about it being a bad year for apples and now he has to pay a lot more per apple which he has to buy because he already sold them to person 3

just on a massive scale, so large that it has the potential to bring down the whole financial system

silver and gold have been slowly climbing as nerves grow, silver was 25p/gram yesterday, now its 27.6 or about a 6% increase in a day
