(Outer, Space) – Could proof of alien life send Wall Street into free fall? One former central-bank analyst says yes, and governments aren’t ready.
In a jaw-dropping warning, Helen McCaw, a former financial security policy expert at the Bank of England, says an official announcement confirming alien life could spark chaos in global markets, crush confidence, and send investors stampeding toward safe assets like gold.
McCaw told The Times of London that politicians and bankers can’t keep brushing off the topic – especially as governments, including the U.S., move closer to declassifying information about Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs). She even urged the Bank of England’s governor to prepare a contingency plan in case the White House drops the ultimate bombshell.
Polls show nearly two-thirds of Americans already believe intelligent life exists beyond Earth. Add years of UFO revelations, viral documentaries, and talk of declassification under President Donald Trump, and McCaw says the risk is no longer sci-fi – it’s financial planning.
The idea exploded online, with commentators stunned that a former central-bank insider is even entertaining the scenario. One viral post summed it up: “This is not a meme. The global financial system is preparing for aliens.”
