Silver_bars, >> major financial reset, precious metals <<

Yes, precious metals return, but it's the new BRICS currency that will be backed by gold. So how does the unbacked / fiat US dollar compete with that? It doesn't, and increasingly the US military will be required to hold things together.

For decades the US brought this disaster on itself by chasing countries away --> weaponizing the US dollar system, imposing sanctions, de-SWIFT-ing countries, stealing their US dollar reserves, and now the tariffs. Trump's policies continue to push countries right into the arms of BRICS even faster, and our allies soon become 'former' allies. Fewer to use the dollar in trade or as reserves, and fewer to buy our Treasuries. The vast US military is then called upon to hold things together by force.

A successful big 'reset' (for the US) could have happened after the 2008 financial crisis, using the SDR / Special Drawing Rights of the IMF as the new world's reserve currency. While US world hegemony would have been diluted significantly, we could have still remained the dominant world power. In retrospect, that would have been a much better deal for the US than what is coming once BRICS expansion reaches its 'critical mass'. The way things are going, virtually the entire world will be joining BRICS, with the US left alone and without allies. The world leaves the dollar reserve system, and the US becomes a 'former' empire.
