Explanation for the slower guys .. employment should always be a function of supply and demand. Rules of employment are the responsibility of elected government, no need for unions.

In my industry, union labor was paid significantly more than management, but likewise, management pay had to at least be relevant. There even was a time when some management teams tried to organize. Everyone got a pay raise and those leading the union effort all got fired. I'm not against good...

And your point is?

The history of Irish control over OD and FD across the country is well documented. Just read. Unlike you, I spent over 10 years working on the management side of a union dominated sector. I'm quite familiar with the role unions play on the operations of private businesses.

Police and fire dept unions are the worse because they're essential labor and have job monopolies. Everyone talks about what unions have done to increase pay, but little is said about how these unions kept non Irish from joining, effectively creating a privileged cast to themselves. Other...

What about GM? The government keeps flooding that company with cash to feed blue collar, middle class income union labor... Should have shut down a decade ago.

See how successful Japan has been in stimulating higher birth rates there .. perhaps China will use more persuasive means, including various punishments for not procreating.

I hope you're right because if you're not, Chinese people will suffer most at the hands of the dictatorial machine. Some irrefutable facts are, Chinese population is shrinking fast, there are many more men than women in some parts of the country, Chinese people are heavily indebted in real...

I admit that I've had trades when my paranoia was in full swing in instances like you describe. Entering to see a drop then panic selling and watching it reverse multiple times in a row as if my trades were being tracked to reverse everything I was doing. :banghead:. That's when you stop and do...

There must be a reason for the price to have dropped like that...earnings, weather, lawsuit, competition... It's important to research and look at the bigger picture.

The trades I hold as more memorable are those I exited too early and watched climb another 20% without me.

If I can add a counter point to the general feedback, it's that whatever decision you make will entail a new decision. Trading is a perpetual loop of unenviable decisions. A trailing stop loss provides the opportunity to rationally decide when to sell, as opposed to an emotional decision that...

I've said on other threads that it's never a good idea to tell the world how cool and rich you are...

I read that Reuters report. It's hard to reconcile with reality. All of the range tests that I've looked at have overwhelmingly shown Tesla vehicles ahead of the competition, be it on distance, temperature consideration, traffic, speed, etc. Yes, EV range are inflated, like ICE range are...

Correct. I don't think there's much money to be made in charging, but there's no EV without a massive network like Europe is planning to deploy. Tesla set the quality standard, now the others have to meet or beat it.

Won't matter how much data proof you show...everything is framed around his personal experience. :banghead:

Wham, bam, thank you Ma'am!

Before and during these times was and continues to exist the barter system. In Europe there even exist websites of people trading their skills for no money, a :finger: to the taxman.
