Screwball

Well Mr. Classy, maybe you should go on out and ask some of those toothless white trash people with no teeth and body oder that very question. It would be fun to see how long it took for one of them to knock you on your arrogant elite ass.

This guy is so busted;

I'm afraid to click on that but I believe you. Nuts, just fricken nuts. As long as you can move money there is a market, no matter how stupid it may be. And someone gets ****ed. Wow! That never happens... I can't believe what I see today. I'm glad I'm old.

If that happens, who wins?

OK, so I have a dumb question here. These coin things we are watching...What exchange do they trade on? I'm guessing my broker isn't hooked up, nor my charts. But I do see charts, as in chart porn. What is the exchange? Is there an equivalent of the SEC, or FINRA, or....? I think this is all nuts, but I'm old, stupid, and into short term bonds that are safe. 🙂

Maybe there is too much money floating around that didn't trickle down to us serfs and all these rich ****s get a big boner playing this form of slot machine while laughing at how gullible the masses really are.

My daughter has a deal similar to that in Columbus. I'm not a fan of that, and I'm not sure she is either but has no choice. IMNSHO, that isn't the way it should work. How about a "market" where we can shop? It's kind of like the internet. Wires are like pipes. Who owns the wires, pipes, fiber to get what we want from point A to point B from who we want. The rest is middlemen shafting us over their business plan of poaching on infrastructure they didn't build or maintain. Roads, bridges, whatever is another matter but ours are not good as one would expect because we are so good at this ****.

I owned some too at one time. IIRC their dividend wasn't bad either.

I don't remember. To expand a little on my post above. My rate is due to expire next month so I have been rate shopping again. It is obvious from the rates quoted, costs are going to continue to go up. All rates per kWh are higher than what I pay now. I haven't looked at natty gas yet but I assume they are higher as well. I also think it's nice of them to charge us $10.00 a month "customer charge" when I have no choice of being their customer. Swine pricks.

Interesting. I have tracked my electric bill since the end of 2021 thru present. I have each bill broken down by charges and kWh. My bill since December 2021 is up %25.58 cost per kWh. Interesting, the actual electric I use is %29.84 of the total bill. Transmission and distribution charges have went up %49.69 and %56.70 per kWh, while the customer charge has stayed the same at $10.00 a month. This is Ohio AEP and me shopping for monthly rates.

I haven't followed this but I did see some really wild chart porn on how this traded. I can't believe people are this stupid.

Investopedia is a great site IMO. Investing in general has become way to complicated, at the expense of many.

Maybe our tax laws are too complicated.

I won't link it but I posted a chart up thread from a few months ago of the 10yr. The Fed went 50bps cuts, then two 25s. A week ago the rate was almost the same as it was before they cut. How'd that work out JPowell? The rate is only one metric. We still have a market, and things don't always work like the monetary geniuses at the Fed think. I do love the yield on the short term rates though. Safe is good.

Are you saying the Fed should raise rates?

Thanks for this. Interesting. Plastic, what a concept at the time. Plastic is oil related and intensive. Times have changed. Hemp is a great thing.

A thread on the insurance angle to the CA fires and insurance companies.

Jean Stapleton made that show IMO. I'm not sure it would get on TV today.

Life is a balance sheet - plan accordingly.

Zuck is one of the biggest creeps on the planet. Nothing would please me more than FB going to zero, unless it was a few banks. 🙂

Not really a strong jobs report, but the action on the 10 year was interesting. At exactly 8:30 when the report hit the tape the 10 year took a spike. Nothing looks funny. JPowell should be proud.

These are two of the biggest hucksters ever to hold the office. This conversation was right out the nose thing from the movie Sting. 🙂 They are the big club.

The big O and the big T were laughing - wow - wonder what about? Simple - they are laughing at us. Same as it always is.

Does it matter when the last 3 people either country elected was the ****-for-brains like Trudeau, Trump, and Biden?
