sherpa Posted April 23 Posted April 23 Just bought a 100k CD for our vol fire dept. Six months. 4.1%. Yield curve still inverted. Nothing close to 5% available unless you go full lunatic, and even then, not available.

Things are bad. That’s putting it mildly. My financial “pain threshold” isn’t what I thought….and what kind of advice is that? First time I saw/heard Navarro I thought uh-oh! 1

sherpa Posted May 19 Posted May 19 i often wonder if people who post here actually follow markets. Moodys should have done this years ago, and certainly no later that the "Inflation Reduction Act." Treasuries are fine. The bond market is fine. 1
Homelander Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Trump’s tariffs and tax policies have sunk the dollar over 10% - its worst start in 50 years. His chaos is fueling the very collapse he warns about. 1
sherpa Posted July 8 Posted July 8 I often wonder why people who seem to think things are heading bad don't simply short the $, short the S&P, short the OEX and the bond market instead of posting here. Just go with your feelings and make some money instead of posting this crap.

You have to post random x accounts that back up your Luke warm opinion on why Donald Trump is the anti Christian. That's how you save democracy!
