"1) No admission that CA leaders did anything wrong while there are plenty to go with"
Mother Nature will do what she does no matter what preparations you think you have. Handling a wildfire seems to me to be a nearly unsurmountable task from the g…
Well Musk just got himself another tax deduction for donating a bunch of fire bombs/trash cans (cyber trucks) for LA fire relief efforts. Maybe his auditors can use that to add to his earnings or bottomline.
It is my belief that people voted for this turd for two main reasons: 1) they thought he would make them richer and 2) they were afraid of a female president. Sadly it's okay to rape and violate a women but we sure don't want them running a country.
In my accounts at Fidelity the individual preferred stocks I own fall into the 'other' category. I'm not sure if that would be the case if I held an ETF (eg, PFF) or CEF made up of preferred's.
@rforno: I can't locate any info on that UTG 60% ROC. Do you have a source?
If you like the sector and the managers take a look at UTES. However if it's the income you were after don't bother. DNP might be an income source.
Thanks @hank ! You're correct of course. I haven't had luck trying to post it this way and I was puzzled how many others were able to pull it off. Hopefully I'll remember if there's a next time
Instead of eating time, energy and money attempting to fulfill the dopey dream of possessing any of Canada, Greenland or the Panama Canal what say we use those resources to lower prescription drug costs, make healthcare more affordable for all and l…
I'm curios as to how he expects to annex Canada as the 51st state. Will all these takeovers happen before or after he deports the illegals, secures the border, fixes(?) the economy and brings down inflation and grocery prices? Oops, he already admit…
"Industry might have to drill a few test wells in the National Parks and Wildlife Refuges just to keep him happy."
I strongly suspect that groups opposed to such a proposition will keep that tied up in lawsuits & the courts until long after his…
Can anyone tell me or explain why it's so important for the bond market to be open that day? Or any of the days it remains open when the stock market is closed? I've never understood it.
FWIW my position in NRCDX at Fidelity shows a total distribution of $0.0703/sh on an ex-date of 12/26 with a pay date of 12/31. The market value of the fund decreased from $10.10/sh at the open minus a price change of $0.0617/sh to close at $10.040…
@Sven: Same here in my neck of the woods. Worked on a walking path, the SHT, from the WI border through Duluth, MN and on to the Canadian border. Nearly all of the work has been done by volunteers and donations. So far there are no fees to access an…

"The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), sometimes referred to as the Dow or Dow 30, is a stock market index that tracks the performance of 30 large, publicly traded companies in the United States. Created in 1896, it …
Agreed @Old_Joe. I feel sorry for the talented group of writers and all the other employees caught up in that mess.
I wish they would all resign or walkout en masse. Followed by MacKenzie Scott hiring all of them under the banner of "Alt WaPo"
Oh man, the Dow must matter to someone otherwise why is it still a market marker after all these years? Also I'm not so sure there are any serious analysts but there are motivated ones.
"A president valuing personal loyalty over professional competence would no longer face any institutional resistance."
Can anyone guess which finger I'm holding up?
