    25% tariff on goods coming in from Mexico announced

    Ignore completely the financial burden that illegal immigration places on American citizens. Pretend that Mexican authorities couldn’t return these Caravans back to the Guatemalan border. The New Mexico Governor, who claimed this border crisis was a Trump fabrication and disbanded the...

    CME Group to Launch Next Generation of CME SPAN Margin Methodology

    Well obviously this affects me and my clients because SPAN margin offsets are a big deal for us. I spent most of last week researching everything I could find on SPAN-2 - there’s not much. I have a friend who’s a Risk Manager at s Major Chicago FCM - I’m going to call him this week. It’s...

    25% tariff on goods coming in from Mexico announced

    Don’t stop there - you must just be getting warmed up because somehow you’ve left out political correctness and grievance politics when it comes to demonizing groups of people and playing them against each other for political expediency. I see it on both sides of the political spectrum and it...

    25% tariff on goods coming in from Mexico announced

    The US has something like 800 military bases in about 70 Countries - hardly isolationist by any standard. Don’t conflate isolationism with nationalism. Oh, and look at recent elections in the EU and in India - Trump and the US is hardly the only citizenry with nationalist trends.

    25% tariff on goods coming in from Mexico announced

    If you are paying coyotes thousands of dollars to smuggle you across two borders - you’re not a true refugee, you’re an opportunist. The real victims and exploited could never afford to pay that. Hell, half of US Citizens probably couldn’t come up with thousands of dollars. Listen to Ed...

    Anyone Got Any Good Crude Stories to Tell

    Ken Griffin was smart but it ended his Fund’s electricity trading ability. Citadel organized its power trading desk under a minimally funded Illinois LLC but their trading was represented to PJM as Citadel HF. They blew up spectacularly - but tens of millions of dollars later in legal fees the...

    Rare earth elements aren’t the secret weapon China thinks they are

    I am NOT anti solar or anti wind. Truly. I advocate balance and truth. Scores of people believe absolutely everything that Elon Musk says - he’s akin to Jesus Christ in that respect. A rather pathetic statement has been attributed to him in the press: to the effect ‘that solar panels...

    Anyone Got Any Good Crude Stories to Tell

    Crude is for pussies. Seen much bigger moves in distillates. I’ve seen the Gasoline Crack Spread have a trading range 3 times that for flat price CL SAME DAY. By far and away the most adult swim is in ELECTRICITY. Seen 1,000 percent vol swings intraday Summer. Seen a Citadel HF Desk blow up...

    North Korea 'executes envoy to US' after Trump summit failures – report

    I have concluded that if tomorrow North Korea allowed foreign visitors safe passage - tens of thousands of curious Westerners would visit. It would be like an Orwellian Time Warp turned up to “eleven”.

    Rare earth elements aren’t the secret weapon China thinks they are

    Electricity prices in California have multiplied at three times the rate of the national average. (Meanwhile, Nevada and Texas electric rates have gone down) And because wind and solar alone cannot efficiently provide constant baseload power generation - California has to buy marked up power...

    Rare earth elements aren’t the secret weapon China thinks they are

    Solar Panels can be killing the Redwoods with toxic leaching of Lead, Chromium, and Cadmium. The things have a finite lifespan [nobody warrants them for longer than 20 years] and nobody has a plan to dispose of them properly. In 2016 Japan warned that they were producing 800,000 tons of solar...

    North Korea 'executes envoy to US' after Trump summit failures – report

    Happy to see that Trump has found a way to exasperate and troll even North Korea. :D:cool: To the point of summary execution of the exact same Party officials that had their way with Obama, Bush, and Clinton. That is some accomplishment, because NK is used to having it the other way with the...
