Based on this thread I've been tracking aluminium and copper mining stocks in addition to my lithium holdings and all have been doing far better so far this year than anything else I can find.

You're going to tell me that red Texas or Florida are so well managed that they dont run state deficits? Obviously not. But your hatred of blue California and the reality that it's running a surplus is giving you hives? I know, it doesn't fit the narrative of the poorly run Socialist state...

That's a pretty fkg scary thought...

You win a prize for the most hypocritical post of the day. California announces a huge surplus (to the dismay of Republicans who hate CA) and all you can complain about is how shitty CA is for having had deficits in the past. Congrats, you're a loser!

https://apnews.com/article/china-business-432f0128432ef1171888476c7967f7a5 With 33 million more men than women, this may explain why China is willing to risk a war over a few rocks in the sea.

We may frown at the implications that 50% of trading flows (retail) detour to Citadel and GEB for "analysis", but the alternative is a $14 round trip trade, as was customary before the advent of the so called "free" trading era. Of course, this may not be an either/or framework and ideally we...

I would definitely clone it, if only for safety reason. Sometimes these damn spinning drives don't give enough warning before they die and prevent free data extraction. For trading, a small size SSD or NVMe is enough. I'd put my money on faster RAM and at least 16GB. But the key is the plug to...

HDDs have an average lifespan of 7 years. I didn't believe it until... well, for me it needed to be twice, I learn it was, the hard way. I've been on SSD and NVMe for at least 10 years.

I was just listening to a YouTube guy explaining that he too was buying/selling Dogecoin on Robinhood right before/during SNL but his sell orders took 20 minutes to fill. Apparently RH and others (he mentioned Webull) were throttling sell side.

That's my point. All it takes are enough anti American idiots to spread and repeat that they got a smack down in Vietnam and, voilà! they did. And you can make every effort to logically demonstrate the idiocy of the statement, all you end up doing is add fuel to the joke. Because the joke...

No matter what Musk would have said or done, some foaming at the mouth conspiracy theorists were going to accuse him of planning the crypto reaction any which way it went.

Many a French war was fought by non French. Usually the command will be French, but the soldiers were primarily men from the colonies or those from the opposing camp. The Foreign Legion as the name implies, is mostly foreigners and French citizens with unsavory past. The legion expunges a...

I know in France they make fun of the Italians who lost to Ethiopia and surrendered quickly rather than fight many of the battles against the allies. Fact is, few believed in fascism and most were pro American. There was no point fighting. The French surrendered quickly to the advancing Nazi...

A admit that I didn't know Musk had Asperger's, but now many things make more sense.

Is that a Brit thing or an American thing?

Not sure these companies failure were necessarily a consequence of the dotcom bubble, but rather were absorbed by bigger, better managed players as should be. Could be wrong, though.

I don't understand the anglo stereotype of French surrendering or running? What is that about?

The dictionary says greed is an "intense and selfish desire for something" and selfishness is a "lack of consideration for other people." Most fundamentally, greed is a primal survival instinct, tamed by centuries of evolution brought on by religions, economic safety and political philosophies...
