(it is okay and helpful, I am told, for out-of-staters to sign as Minnesotans)

Buy low, sell high. BLX has had a great run up, along with everything else in the past couple of days. (and prior, too.) I've got a sell order in for just over 4% of my total investment there. So, as Liz Ann Sonders has said: "trim high and buy low.…
"As Trump’s dementia worsens, several axioms are useful for interpreting his increasingly incoherent bloviation."
Axiom #1: Whatever he asserts to be a fact is either a wild exaggeration or a bald-faced lie.
Always disregard.
Axiom #2: Whatever he…

The irony of the title of this thread and just how historically bad the last week has been for the country is not lost on the patriots posting here. It’s so bad that in our house we are putting limits on news consumption and watching baking you tub…

"The Rover." Do you hear an evolution in the band's sound here?
"Freeway Jam." And Jeff Beck is not with us anymore. Everybody's dying. Shit.
About the song: the bass starts it off, and it seems to carry the song, with a forward driven feel. Perfec…
TACO trade! I bet, like me, your shit was up bigly, today? Jan. 21st, 2026. I'm currently investigating an unowned prospect: Banco de Sabadell, out of Spain. Looks like there is often not a single share traded through a whole day, lots of times. I'm…

"down with everything else today"...
@Crash- NOT SILVER !!!

Like @hank, I can't bring myself to invest in a thing that's already had such a run-up. I think like Buffett re: gold. Dunno where he stands re: silver. Lots of indust…
...If SCOTUS was smart, they'd see this clown is far beyond using tariffs for any legitimate national security purpose...
Don't bet on it. The SCOTUS majority is OWNED.
Another very few shares added to EWS (Singapore.) It was down with everything else today, but only by -0.23%. We'll see what tomorrow brings. Oil/gas midstream ET was actually up, today.
