  1. How's the heat there. You don't seem to be affected.

  2. did you just admit to insider trading and say you believe in honesty lol 😂

  3. Always be aware of the smartest person in the room.

  4. You can take all their money, but they won't learn.

  5. I love you too, just go to bed 🛌 and have a nice good night sleep 😅

  6. 😂😂😂, I hear you, "my duty"!

  7. I think rating agencies simply judges that the deficit is too high and the interest payment is too high, and that devalues USD quickly ? lol

  8. Wow, did you just admit to insider trading?

      There is no insider trading in the commodities market. It’s not regulated by the SEC.

    • @Mike Norman MMT Economics Hahaha…. Sorry. Thought you were being just a little too honest. LOL. Learn something new every day.

  9. Mike, you are so honest, you just confessed to insider trading!

  10. So if US can print all that money, why borrow?

    I remember a pretty big reaction when S&P downgraded. There was some sort of investigation into their reasoning or something (I’m going off memory, and I can’t totally remember 😂)

  12. That child screaming bloody murder was concerning.

  13. Fitch downgraded the United States to AA+ from AAA, citing fiscal deterioration over the next three years and repeated down-the-wire debt ceiling negotiations that threaten the government's ability to pay its bills

  14. I really like u Mike

  15. ❤👁

  16. good review

  17. What would you take advantage of for investing when the US credit rating is downgraded, other than stocks going down? Are there any market products that are specifically tied to this other than stock in general? (Question for anyone)

  18. If you print like crazy to spend and pay debt, you'll be worse than Venezuela 😊

  19. sounds fitchy to me

  20. Maybe Fitch is worried they're going to run out of keystrokes.
