It does seem like a few algorithmic trading firms have manipulated the market such that there is no organic momentum on a major news event.

I don't see how it's worth anything. Whatever equity is in the stock is going to be stolen by Trump and his cronies. If there's one company in America you can bet will not act with the fiduciary responsibility of its shareholders in mind, it's one where the majority of shares are owned by Donald...

Given where the S&P was on the daily, I really expected a rally with the 50 point cut serving as a catalyst, especially once it went to Powell at 2:30. While it seemed like the technicals and fundamentals were aligned, we got chop after breaking to the new ATH. I bet big and lost big today...

I agree, if they overthrow Maduro it could be the investment of a lifetime. I like Bogota and could see myself spending significant time here. It's the easiest place to get to in South America from NYC or FL (I paid like $200 for a flight with a bag/aisle seat included two days in advance from...

Petro didn't cause the problems, they've been here, but I don't think he's helping improve the situation. I don't think negotiating with criminals is the way to go. Colombia has a history of doing that. It hasn't worked. Bukele just built massive prisons and sent all the gang members to them...

I'm in Bogota right now and comfortable with the doorman to my Airbnb apartment LOL. I hear a lot of bad stories in Medellin though. I know the tourists mostly go there and Cartagena and often take stupid risks. Having been to all three, Bogota is way more chill and nobody bothers me here even...

The guy has connections to Ukraine and it should be investigated. I didn't say they were behind it for sure. I'm pointing to his connections with them and the fact that Ukraine clearly has a motive. Completing ignoring this would be negligence.

I mean, there has to be a "reasonable doubt". I don't know if he was just "in the wrong place at the wrong time" and just happening to be aiming where ex-President was headed who he hates is a "reasonable doubt". It's going to be interesting lol.

All I know is this guy has supposedly been active with the Ukraine situation and although they would never publicly say it, Trump is probably the number two guy they want dead after Putin. Their existence basically depends on U.S. military aid. I could see us finding out their involvement in...

I'm not sure how this guy found out Trump would be there. It definitely raises red flags. If the Ukrainian government was behind it, it wouldn't shock me. It most likely wasn't them, but it still definitely needs to be investigated by independent sources. If you're naive enough to think the...

For now, but if this is all they get, I guess they will go for the max (or near it) as he was already a convicted felon. Not sure if they can take the fact Trump was near the gunman into account. Also not sure if the standard is to sentence gun-related charges concurrently.

It's going to be interesting to see if they can prove this was indeed an assassination attempt. If the guy recorded nothing about assassinating Trump and never even pointed a gun at Trump is there enough evidence to prosecute him for what we all think he was there for?

I wonder if this were the first attempt if it would have succeeded. It was definitely a better plot, because golf courses are extremely large and difficult to fully secure. The holes are surrounded by trees and bushes for people to hide in. The first attempt had massive failures including police...

Were black women ever going to Trump? I thought it was primarily black men Trump was gaining with. Maybe they were more likely to stay home.

I'm not buying that this was the disaster for Trump the mainstream media is saying. I think Harris had a really bad opening answer, was shaking/nervous to start, and then a little too scripted in appearance after that. Trump was bad throughout as expected. He's clearly suffering from cognitive...
