It's kind of amazing how much they manage to leave out. It could be for this reason... Or it could be for this reason... I dunno may start out with saying what you actually did and what the net result was. If you want to be actually informed...

Typical ad hominem response to a challenge of your belief system. You're so sure you're right, yet you can't even describe what you believe in the form of an actual scientific theory. I can give specific examples and evidence where as you are just stuck saying 'you're crazy'

Nope. They became so desperate to hide the decline that they had to start retroactively revising old temperatures downward in order to preserve an upwards trend. https://realclimate.science/2014/06/23/noaanasa-dramatically-altered-us-temperatures-after-the-year-2000/#gsc.tab=0 Deciding...

"Climate change" means pseudoscientific gibberish. Real science makes testable predictions, that are backed by observed facts. "Climate change" means "I know anthropogenic global warming is bullshit, but I want all the things we said you really really had to do because of it, so I simply going...

Crooked media will say anything you want for a price. The simple fact is Arrhenius equation clearly predicts this problem for chemical batteries...

Ridiculous. Long term markets are not random. For example, a company that is losing money every year is more likely to go out of business than a company that is making money. A company with less capital remaining has less ability to persue opportunities, etc. And long term markets make you...

This is nonsense. Just because you personally didn't figure something out in advance doesn't mean it was random. It especially doesn't mean that future price movement is completely independent of past price movement. For example, there was a time period where personal loans to Elon Musk...

No. Stock prices are not random. People at assume they're random because some models used assume randomness. These people are just missing the point that they're only using those models because they don't have better ones. A less than perfect model is often better than no model at all...

Looks like if these ETFs get in a legal fight with the government for any reason, the legal fees are coming out of the trust balance. Even if they waive their regular fee for a while, you can still be hit with charges for "extraordinary" things. " The Trust may incur certain extraordinary...

I forgot how good this article was at explaining the radical terrorism of the 70's. One more snippet: " In 1972, a group called Venceremos, from the Bay Area, literally broke out a black convict named Ronald Beaty during a prison transport so he could train them in guerrilla tactics and lead a...

Another good section: " If you think a bunch of coked-up black radicals and feminist commies can’t come up with a plan to spring a handless Puerto Rican bomber all I can say is, you don’t know the Seventies, brother. Check this shit. By May 1979, Morales is as healed up as he’s gonna get...

For those not familiar with those days in America https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3637584/posts https://ammo.com/articles/days-of-rage-left-wing-bombings-terrorism-america-1970s The first link in freaking gold. It goes into detail and there a lot of this crap you couldn't make up if...

You need to get some perspective. The US hasn't even reached 1970s level of chaos yet, and basic disagreements about political goals are not a basis for arrest in a functioning democracy. Calling for the arrest of the opposing party is the thing that is destabilizing this country. "Why won't...

Crack a history book sometime. Yeah that whole great leap forward was super "civilized". How many people died again? And if you think it didn't affect America maybe read a little about the Korean war. The worst that can happen is pretty damn bad. China has nuclear tipped ICBMs remember...

These companies would sell you a flaming bag of dog crap if they could get fees for doing so and faced no risk themselves. Don't take my word for it, look at what was being sold during the financial crisis. This industry even let Corzine have another fund to run AFTER MF global. The notion...

Or it brings down a whole government. Maybe even launches a war. Just crack a history book . https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_debt_crises China is a net importer of food and oil. The can print all the money they want but that doesn't mean anyone else will accept it. Not...

I bet no. Seems to me that would kill their currency. Maybe they'd do it as a precursor to invading Taiwan and/or Russia, since at that point it wouldn't matter. But assuming they want to be able to buy things like oil, those treasuries are a big backstop to their currency. A country like...

I've never checked. I'm not very worried about Schwab and Ibkr going bankrupt on the same day. I suspect that would be the result of such a big Marco event that the government might very well choose to ignore whatever the law says anyway, like it did during covid. I'm more concerned with the...

If you're really worried use multiple brokers. It helps protect you from other things like IT failures shutting down a broker.
