    My opinion is that the oil crash of last year was a bad omen for a global economic slowdown.

    I think CITI Bank owns most of the shares of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. They’re not like “stock market shares” but they are definitely “shares”.

    I was at Home Depot today and went to re-check the price on this just for fun. Definitely cheaper. So that’s good news I guess. But remember, from $66 to $18…that’s a BIG move. Even if it is to the downside. Is this a sign of slower growth for our economy? Definitely interesting to see the...

    Didn’t Powell say there was a shortage of T-bills? LOL If the debt-ceiling is pushed to its limits it could affect their stupid reverse-repo operations. The Banking system was already falling apart in 2019. LOL Imagine a regulatory war between China and US.

    Imagine a retroactive tax. LOL. "We figured out what crypto really is, and we don't like that. If you wanna keep your crypto you gotta pay whatever we taxed you in inflation to give out for handouts so we can stay in power" LMAO

    My guess is that crypto will be so heavily regulated or taxed that it will be a net wash and defeat it’s purpose against inflation, privacy and de-centralization. Fiat money is efficient just not when these schmucks control it’s quantity and allocation like that. Remember, they took all the...

    Bears might actually have a chance here with this market if previous support levels can’t hold. Big open interest on those Oct 20 VIX 50 calls. We touched all time highs and the spot VIX was unable to make an all time low. Despite already making a low of 14. Shouldn’t we be at 12? Also why...

    Has anybody noticed the price of batteries like Duracell? Those AA and AAA batteries look like they went up a lot. I don’t remember the exact price and quantity but it definitely went up. Something to do with lithium metal?

    I want to add another thing to this thread. Namely, our social conditioning teaches us to just follow the instructions. That you are entitled to everything without effort or struggle. Don't think for yourself. Everyone deserves a participation prize. No one needs to develop any character or...

    Absolutely. Well I’m only 29. But it’s a a life long process for sure. You need dedication and motivation. Not easy. A good book on this topic is In Search of the Miraculous by Ouspensky. “We regard the actions of an individual as originating in himself. We do not imagine that the...

    The conatus principle is relevant here. It’s easier to understand depression this way. Or any mental disturbance. It works for you or against you. To short circuit the thing you have to understand it’s structure. Much like when a virus or bacteria enters your body. Not all viruses are the...

    This for sure. Keep it simple. It’s just maximization of utility and allocation of scarce resources. Simple. It’s Kaizen applied to everything.

    We have been saying this on this forum for 7 years. Nah, it can’t go any higher no way. :rofl: True that. There’s just no where to put your money. But I think a correction will be needed to go higher. It will be an opportunity to buy as it’s easier to time a bottom than to time a top. If...
