    I didn’t make a comment though. I just reported news.

    I love how you come around to gloat when the stock is up a few % for the year, but disappears when it’s -40%.
    typical Tesla fanboi.

    so move along. Bye Felicia.

    The technical defination of a recession has been 2 consecutive quarter of decline in the economic pie, GDP

    someone named Claudia Sahm has been using this metric to predict recession, when the unemployment rate increases by 0.5 percentage points or more over a three-month period.


    according to this arbitrary metric, recession supposedly started in Aug 2024, even tho the GDP was growing faster than estimated.

    Then Claudia Sahm back-pedaled

    “This time really could be different,” Sahm said. “[The Sahm Rule] may not tell us what it’s told us in the past, because of these swings from labor shortages, with people dropping out of the labor force,
    to now having immigrants coming lately. That all can show up in changes in the unemployment rate, which is the core of the Sahm Rule.”

    another words, Sahm's law doesn't work when the economy is coming out of historic lows (below 4% in 2023) in unemployment rate,

    Just got back from my trip and figured I circle back to this.

    How's $TSLA doing these days anyway?

    0% return the past ~4 years...
    -40% from peak
    0.23%year to date

    I think the NASDAQ 100 is +60% the past 4 years..

    Hopefully the MAGA folks can generate some revenue for fElon by using those robotaxis.

    Stocks went up with Biden. Probably would have seen the same action regardless of who won. Money is more and more worthless every second, of course stocks, businesses, peepeecoin and things (like ****ing paper towels) go up in value.

    Also, look at history, presidents don't matter, only time in market.

    Stock market goes up 20%, you think you're winning, meanwhile the REAL POOLED money is using those fairy dust gains to buy every businesses, house, and resource on the open market.

    The only thing you'll be able to afford by 2040 is a digital house and a monkey token.

    GOOD LUCK when you need a plumber and your only options are KKR or Blackrock. Lulz.

    In his manifesto, Maxwell Azzarello alleged that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies were central to a global Ponzi scheme orchestrated by elites, including figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk. He claimed that these individuals promoted cryptocurrencies to defraud investors and facilitate a massive transfer of wealth. Azzarello argued that the scheme's collapse would lead to significant economic turmoil, benefiting those in power. He viewed Trump's and Musk's endorsements of cryptocurrencies as deliberate efforts to legitimize and expand this fraudulent system.

    This guy was definitely crazy but he was COOKING. Literally.

    Just trying to tickle @DonnyMost

    If Bonds and similar were in agreement with Equities, then that would suggest a continued move higher was likely - possible.

    Since Bonds and similar didn't confirm, then perhaps be cautious if making decisions for intermediate to longer timeframes.
