So much fictitious pap. I borrow from Orange supporter James Woods in "True Crime" when he told uncle Clint: "I can't fart loud enough to tell you what I think of that."
This is a constitutional train wreck, but people just carry on.... At least those not personally affected. But just wait until Nov. 1st. The majority, the Repugnants in the Congress, have assumed the role of spectators. Their own lack of oversight s…
6-2 in Game 4. Jays win. Dodgers could not find the gas peddle. Ohtani hit a homer, but his pitching gave the game to the Birds.
How 'bout Kershaw in the clutch in Game 3 with bases loaded, eh?
Your responses to FD1k resonate with me. Consistent with HCR, lately, on The Bulwark. I heard her offer some political history, going back to the 1990s: the period when Gingrich the Newt was House Speaker. The Repugnant tactic of brinkmanship became…
In this case I'd rather just stick with J-Pow. Why? Any pick by this administration will just be doing whatever they are told to do. I haven't seen one selection for any position yet that did what was right or different vs. toeing the line. Willing…
Rieder is a well known media celebrity and smart money manager. Always upbeat. If selected it would probably be with the expectation he could serve as market ”cheer-leader” as they pull out the stops to try to keep the pig flying another year. B…
Not adding to US equities, no. Reinvesting dividends is all. Adding in baby-bite sized chunks to foreign. Can't see why my financials are faltering lately. One is foreign, one is based in a US Territory: Panama and P.R. But they both use the dollar,…
Starting 16th inning. They are allergic to scoring. ... Almost 11:00 p.m. in L.A. and 2:00 a.m. in the East.
.................Freddy Freeman solo HR wins it for the Dodgers in the 18th. Yaba daba doo.
Gotta hold the majority Repugnants' feet to the fire some way. The American people need stuff. Repugnants on The Hill just care about themselves. Spectators. They've abdicated all mature responsibility, and have in fact done irresponsible things, i…

Call yourself fortunate, eh?

It's a fund of funds. Maybe that won't appeal to you.
Oh, YA? Esp. in light of them attempting to walk away from that big debt, I'd simply FORBID them to leave. This is not the players doing. It's management, of course. You don't like it here anymore? BITE ME. Pay.
The Market's been rising and rising. Until it doesn't, but that should not surprise anyone when it happens. The cycle happens over and over. I recall that the lion's share of the profits and moneymaking in the SP500 is severely concentrated at the t…
It's up to each retailer and middleman to decide. That's competition and capitalism.
What was it that Keynes said? Trump can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent?
...Which is why I'm growing my international stake.
Good. That aligns w/my macro views on the post-Orange global markets future....
Hear, hear! But Trump has no intention of leaving the WH...... DOES he???????????????
@hank Yes, indeed.
And this, from the Ministry of Truth: "Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia." Just change the facts when it's convenient. Because truth is what Brother wants to tell you today.

ZERO class. Gawd. Along the same lines, I recall the song he and Melania danced to at his first-term Inauguration balls: Sinatra: "I did it my way." Put…
Seems to me there were storms or flooding in "Red" AR. But uncle Donald let go of zero disaster relief money for Gov. Huckabee, who used to be his own Press Sec. ...Donald Trump is a petty, self-absorbed child who's grown old, an Orange Lump. Wasted…

Kathy Jones is not convinced it's a good idea to be cutting rates while inflation is still well above the 2% target. I concur.
-Credit concerns: esp. private credit. Public credit: Is HY spread starting to widen? Meghan Robson, BNP…

Those in a position to get their flattery of the Orange Menace heard by him can get stuff they want. I was quite surprised by her remark that she accepted the Prize on behalf of Trumpy, or something very l…
LOL. Oops. The vid covers stuff in the category of "how not to invest," or "how not to shoot yourself in the foot." Did you guys spend any time at all with it? I just finished a vid with Galloway and Barry Ritholtz, too. His book is "How Not To Inve…
