Trump is injecting needless volatility.

It’s not the policies it’s the messaging.

    Lutnik is the clone of Coen who got the 2017 trickle down tax bill thru another attempt.

  3. I like your take on things. My take on trump things is its a slight of hand trick on a huge scale. Everyone wondering what's happening with the laughable ideas he has as he is destroying our markets. I'm sure his rich friends are poised to take advantage. That's best case scenario. Worst is a total takeover and dictatorship. How smart guys like you get sucked in to endorsing trump as even credible for a president is well beyond me.

    My neighbors dog was taken by a coyote a couple weeks ago, and that was the end of that lmao Ruthless.

  5. Fixation on gold and silver is almost as silly as bitcoin.

  6. Restructure?? Destructure!! Mental Illness!! No more Things!! Not in our Favor!!!

  7. This has always been Trump's messaging. I'm amazed how trump supporters forgot he did the same shit during COVID

  8. You voted for this Mike. You’ve got some soul searching to do my friend.

    It is a restructuring of the economy.

  10. okay boomer

  11. Thanks for the updates, Mike. I am anxious to see what you catch in the trap. Rats could be the issue, but if its big bites I would bet on racoons, skunks, or possums. Would not surprise me if a rabbit nibbled on them too. These are the critters I see in Texas.

    Peanut butter is the best bait. Surprised you didn’t get one already.

    T. Sec. Bissent came across to me as a lot more rational than I expected. His explanation of his meeting with VZ in Kyiev and later in Oval office allowed me to see the bigger picture of what happened leading up to the disaster of 02/28/25. All that occurred in parallel with Trump's needless volatility caused by his tariff nonsense toward our closest neighbors and important allies. I think he and Musk both believe the wrong paradigm regarding imports/exports, quality of life, use of resources. Your analysis with respect to these things certainly does help me stay dispassionate and unemotional in the midst of market swings. However, based on what I'm hearing from Trump, I don't think we will continue to see fiscal support as spring and summer give way to fall and winter.

  14. Oh God, please send us more stimies!

  15. Too much volatility with those tomatoes

    'Way to avert the nuclear an!h!lat!on of humanity with your vote, Mike. You've got some life-appreciating to do my friend. Vasily Archipov sends his best wishes and personally congratulates you for not voting for the nuclear NeoCons when you had the opportunity. Also, the Democrats apologize for rigging the primary against Bernie, and the Russiagate hoax and the nuclear chicken with Russia'
