How 'bout this Twitter hack?!
Talk about a wake-up call for the world. We are lucky AF whoever did it is either really stupid or really nice. I mean depending on which account they used and what they said... imagine the millions and millions of dollars that could have been lost by retail ES players in the after hours. Sure there's a 5% circuit breaker, but who (besides B1 with his 200 point stops :rolleyes: ) doesn't have a stop set within that 5% range?

Ya know what I'm thinking... and perhaps this is obvious and I just never gave it any thought... Twitter is here to stay and its one of the most powerful companies in the world. I know Dorsey has a problem making money with it... but still. Any company that has this much power is worth a look as a long term investment. The world has come to "need" Twitter. It has permanently secured its place in not just our culture, but the entire world's. They'll fix their screw-up, Dorsey's sharp. Twitter is here to stay. Buy the dip.

There is no asset class free from the possibility of government seizure. We live in a destabilized world. That 38% Trump base who feign love of liberty are ready and willing to give it all away in the name of law and order and white power. The irony is that they themselves are largely that part of the population that would stand to benefit most from social democracy, and yet they choose authoritarianism instead. Land will be a fine investment so long as you are willing to align yourself on the side of the Nationalists forces should such forces come to power. Putin's oligarchs do just fine, until Putin perceives that he has been crossed. Then he confiscates the offender's wealth and puts him in prison.



Monetary and fiscal stimulus are real. Jamie Dimon said what I think you are trying to say more accurately when he said "This is not a normal recession. The recessionary part of this you're going to see down the road due to all the stimulus."

Thank you for this, people's political opinions are always welcomed and normally spot on as most people can keep their emotions out of politics and they are able to be objective and factual.

Actually it's more like facts in your case, particularly your first post. Just some of us aren't intelligent enough to come to such an amazing and accurate conclusion. But that's why you're posting I imagined so the lesser of us can understand exactly what's going on. I'll make sure to apply this to my trading today.

Watch the “Cuba Libre Story” on Netflix, docu-series for more on the above. I have in my safety desposit box over $300k in Cuban bonds issued by the bank of New York. It was handed down to me by my grandfather. The last interest coupon paid , yes coupon you had to snip it off and go get your money, was 1959. That’s the last coupon snipped off. Nothing is safe.

Well, color me old-school, but I'm with Warren Buffet on this. Yes we have our problems, but I believe in our youth (as much as I joke around about ya'll being spoiled and lazy)... you'll figure it out. Our Constitution will stand. The great experiment will press on.

Well gentlemen, gl to everyone this morning. I'm expecting some bullishness off the gate here. Any movement under the globex lows will make me change my tune.
