AL

Why are they briefing her? She needs history lessons not current affairs

Where is Kash?

Is Kash still with the men’s hockey team in the audience of the SOTU address?

Trump secured $18 trillion of investments but the USD is falling. Things that make you go hmmmm

How far back will the return of tariffs that were illegally imposed by Trump be returned? Consumer? Us retailer? Foreign exporters? Or just DJT bank account

Last week Saylor said even if bitcoin fell to $8,000 he would be able to rollover their debt until the market rebounds. This article below is closer to how markets actually trade and will be a warning signal to risk managers and traders alike.

She bought 35,000 shares while 68 mio TSLA shares traded and an ARKK fund valuation of $6.97 bio. This is less than rebalancing. This is less than a dividend payout. This is irrelevant

Proudly Canadian

As we get closer to midterms the titans of American industry will have a difficult choice. Do they diversify and donate to Democrats as much as they have done to support Republicans or do they wager that Trump will prevail? Some actions may be difficult to repeal but regulations and taxes are not.

The Nobel Committee has rejected Venezuela opposition leader Maria Corina Machado's idiotic attempt to share the Nobel Peace Prize with the orange felon.

Good, they need to strip it away from her now she disgracefully tried to trade it to a tyrant for political power.

For Australia, the new world order will have China as the dominant player in the sphere. Australia should not expect assistance from the USA and needs to pivot back to Europe as allies. This doesn’t sound like a palatable message, hence my expectation that Yarvin won’t discuss it.

It is unlikely. Yarvin wants the Americas to be created into the company with Trump et al as their CEO. They are currently accumulating the resources under their control. Their message to Europe is that they will be pulling back their support to conflicts there as it is not their sphere of influence

If you want to know what the US is doing in Venezuela then read Yarvin and the previous blueprint by Davis. The only change to the post below is that this administration has become emboldened and is reaching further into South America to control resources. This is the technate state being formed.

It matches the plan for technocracy that Elon et al want. The grab for Greenland and Canada were moves to the north. South America has Ven for oil and Bra for rare earth. Interesting that he initially appeared to only want to go as far south as Panama Canal but has become emboldened to reach further

GFC most commonly refers to the Global Financial Crisis (2007-2009), a severe worldwide recession triggered by the US housing market collapse, causing banking failures and massive job losses.“

Even AI knows that the G stands for.

How long do they debate that sentence?

I think the word is autographed

Lowering taxes but hiking tariffs was supposed to shift the revenue collection to foreign producers. This wasn’t the case as it was another tax on American consumers.

Giving those consumers $2k in refund doesn’t take into account that the US is running an enormous deficit. Trump failed accounting

Waiting to see the details of the Minerals deal signed by Albanese government. The fact that we have assured them that we are buying their submarines and selling them rare earths in return for continuing to suffer under his tariffs is ridiculous. He should have gone in with Australia first policies

He needs them to survive because Milei provided him the blueprint to fiscal austerity that he has imposed on the US. The chainsaw is out of fuel, any funds will be a temporary reprieve from the spiral created. They will again default on foreign investors’ injections. History repeats.

The US is giving $20 bio to Argentina. They expect another $20 bio from private sources like sovereign wealth and private banks. This is ludicrous as the Argentinians have often defaulted on foreign debt. Four times since 1980. Why would those custodians put funds at risk? The returns are not there

This feels like modern day politics

I expect that Tylenol will look to sue Trump et al for the comments linking their product to autism.Tylenol maker Kenvue said it “strongly disagrees” that acetaminophen causes autism and said it is “deeply concerned about the health risks and confusion this poses for expecting mothers and parents.”

Millei really is the blueprint for the USA. His economic policies have had a radical effect on the nation. Recent elections have not supported his efforts.

For the year 2024, the total value of U.S. imports of goods and services was $4.136 trillion. This was the whole year. So, he wasn’t in office in January, the tariffs came in to play after liberation day on April 2. So, in five months he has collected 200% of the import value. Nothing to see here?

Tariffs will be inflationary in the USA but not elsewhere. We are already seeing discounting by Chinese firms here. Most other central banks will be watching with interest to growth numbers to see if rates need to be lowered in order to stimulate the economy to make up for lost exports to the USA.

The equity market could cheer the moves by Trump to seek lower rates. This would benefit borrowers. Trump needs to fund a huge deficit. Inflation helps assets but punishes borrowers through higher funding rates. The bond market participants are who to watch if the inflation vigilantes prevail.

A headline reads: "Violent Crime in Washington, D.C., Is Lowest in Years. President Trump has cited false and misleading claims about violent crime in Washington. Homicide and carjackings fell in 2024, and D.C. police say the city is on track to record even fewer violent crimes this year." A chart shows that there were 1,584 violent crimes in 2025 so far. Note: Includes homicides, assaults with a weapon, sexual abuse and robberies. Source: Metropolitan Police Department

President Trump made false and misleading claims about crime in Washington, D.C., during a news conference on Monday as he announced that the administration would take federal control of the police. Here’s a fact-check. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/u...

What did Ron Vara think of the numbers?

Unbelievable. Who is safe in this administration? How can someone think that you can dismantle the economy and maintain the employment numbers?
Wait until he sees the inflation numbers. Is Powell updating his resume?
