    Stupidity cost me $1800

    It took me about 25 years to finally remember Good Friday was a day the market was closed. Every year I'd get up that Friday and think my stuff was hung up only to find out it was Good Friday. Sneakiest holiday ever.

    Is Trump the big loser today on Twitter buyout by Elon MusK?

    You are correct. And then the "African Americans" discovered that the richest man in the world was an actual African American that was [GASP]!!!! white.

    Twitter says it's being acquired by Elon Musk

    Musk wanted the money to actually reach entities that could really and truly work to make things better. UNICEF was all about using the money to further line the pockets of their bureaucrats and funding programs that did nothing to feed anyone. He called it out for what it was...but hey...your...

    Twitter says it's being acquired by Elon Musk

    I think we all have people that vote the same as us that we are not proud of.

    Twitter says it's being acquired by Elon Musk

    I have plenty of conservative friends that own Teslas. They bought them because the perception was that they were getting a quality product in many forms. If Tesla vehicles started spontaneously catching on fire and breaking down, those conservatives might stop buying them. That's his...

    Twitter says it's being acquired by Elon Musk

    I hope you're right, but it might be easier to put men on Mars.

    Twitter says it's being acquired by Elon Musk

    It's not uncommon for entities with significant funds to grab something like this, take a few years and clean things up - then do another IPO and get their own cash out of it. More liberals crying in their tofu tonight. It's going to be interesting to see where Twitter goes from here. Musk...

    How was this crash obvious?

    I completely agree with your statement. The key difference between my statement and yours is that I wrote "any given day" and you wrote "over time". The market is absolutely not random. As an example, I feel like "over time"... the market is going to go up. Monday could be down another 2-3%...

    How was this crash obvious?

    Nobody knows on any given day where the market is actually headed. Those that were caught on the wrong side of any big move tend to be a bit more quiet on those days.

    Bloomberg says BTC becoming global settlement layer

    95+% of the transactions (and people doing them) that utilize crypto are either on the dark web, dealing in illicit/illegal products, avoiding taxes or just speculating on the movement of the price relative to the dollar. Even if were widely accepted, it's not stable.

    Egg Price Spike April 2022

    This is what people voted for. The media isn't showing you any stats, but I gotta believe the poor and marginal folks are suffering horribly right now. For all the talk of income inequality, they sure have created a lot more of it.

    Netflix, hehe.

    I read an article a while back about Netflix being the most "woke" of the streaming services. How do they judge that? There is an organization that tracks the number of characters on the screen that are black, gay, trans, etc.... and the amount of screen time each character receives - points...

    TWTR Fights Back

    I think ultimately that's it for Musk - and everyone else that appreciates the free society we've attempted to create in the US. It's that free speech has slid way too far in one direction and it's starting to have very real consequences. And so much of the public is blind to what's really...

    Why do futures gyrate so wildly overnight? Baffling

    Asia opens around 9pm (eastern US time) and Europe around 3 or 4am. These guys trade many of the same big names as the US and have their own issues affecting their views of individual names and macro conditions. Somewhere in Japan right now is the Japanese version of Ken Calhoun sitting there...

    Musk Offers to Buy Twitter at $43 Billion Valuation

    He mentioned in the interview yesterday having "3,000 shareholders - or whatever the maximum is allowed". That sounds like some kind of semi-private entity. You have more and more public figures and people with means watching the lopsided media and becoming concerned to the point of wanting to...

    Musk Offers to Buy Twitter at $43 Billion Valuation

    No idea how this plays out but it could be quite entertaining to watch over the coming months. Forget about the stock and the cash. You've got a ubiquitous communication platform, the plain spoken richest guy in the world with a penchant for being pretty transparent and a nervous bunch of...

    Worst Economic Predictions in History

    Krugman. LOL. There cannot be any credibility to any "top 5 worst prediction" list if Krugman is not included. He was the guy that made the economics Nobel meaningless going forward.

    Do you want to hold the line, or pray for a crash?

    No one cares what I wish for. Not even anonymous people on the internet for entertainment purposes.
