Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
Today’s market is up due to the increased chance of rate cut in light of weak labor market. Quite honestly, cutting rate will not promote more hiring and less layoff. Companies are uncertain of future investment due to the tariffs.
Project 2025…
Certainly sounds like other nations are finding ways to bypass the U.S. and build new trade routes.
Hell, ya. The Orange Plan (Project 2025?) is a hill of dandruff.
"it is just a negotiating tactic".
That never rang true for me. Weaponizing trade negotiations in a way like never before. It is simply beneath the dignity of the Chief Executive. It demeans the Office. Then, when reductions or reversals happen, the…
We might have to wait for '26. But will the elections be free and fair? Repugnants can't win without cheating, and they're already in the process. Watch out.
Yes, I too am suspicious. The Repugnant Party is allergic to truth, ethics, facts, integrity.
The Dems are not saviors. But they still have a soul which could help to guide the Ship of State. I don't have to be "woke" to see this massive, vital, ess…
@ Crash. Today’s market is the perfect metaphor for what’s going on in the orange regime. It’s frantic, it’s unglued, it’s beyond logic and IMHO ,,, it can’t go out much longer. An implosion, explosion is coming.
Holy Jaypers, I hope you're righ…

Rahm Emmanuel, WSJ:
"...This would mark a dramatic departure from the reality that has emerged in the first quarter of the 21st century. The Harris campaign’s decision to ma…
Trump is calling for the six Democratic lawmakers who urged the military not to follow any illegal orders to be arrested, and he’s reposting replies saying they should be hanged and calling them terrorists.
"Great country ya got there!"
I'm No Repugnant Party member. But I'd even prefer Colin Powell, rest his soul. He was invited to run, but declined. A TRUE patriot. Surely he felt out of step with the base by the time he retired. He was fed a load of garbage to use, to defend the …
Chickens come home to roost. Inflation, ya think? Fewer of the cheaper goods arriving for sale?
Tariffs? Sure. GREAT idea. Just alienate everyone. That's the ticket. Then they'll all find ways to bypass dealing with an Orange Imbecile.
Jobs report:
“These numbers are a snapshot from two months ago and they don’t reflect where we stand now in November.”

Comment: I completely agree with Ms. Blondi's statement highlighted above.
It's shameful that Ms. Blondi consistently fails to deliver justice
while Donald J. Trump perpetuates corruption on a massive scale!
Of course.
Ya, Maybe Home Depot should say the real reason they're struggling. A large percent of their construction clientele are in hiding or being deported. I know of a local restaurant that is staying closed some days because of it. We all agree, get o…
Just shameless. There are no words to truly get at the essence of the Orange low-life.

+1.
Well, ya. Once prices go up, they never come down unless there's a Depression. I remember the teacher giving us one example: you could buy a restaurant meal for .25 cents during those very bad years. But the Markets sank, too.
They've screwed i…
Glad to hear it. And for the Cardinals gathered in Rome to elect an AMERICAN Pope was utterly astonishing. But I'm so far rather pleased. Pope Francis from Argentina was long overdue, too.
