It’s possible that trump will try and cynically exploit the deaths of two guard members grossly.

Wow. Someone is defending the argintine peso. The level is absolutely STUCK at 1488.

That number has significance in neo nazi circles.

what does the market think of Trump's attempt to "fire" Lisa Cook?
Short term interest rates fell.
But long term, rates rose.

They *somewhat* believe he'll pull it off.

So the national guard is deployed to DC to protect sexual harassers.

Not the crime story you’ve been told
And while the right wing story was constantly changing, the police report and the story from the teenagers both remained consistent. The teenagers say that big balls was harassing and trying to pick up the 15-year-old girl, and when he wouldn't leave her alone the boy jumped in to defend her.

Fed says risks on both sides of market, with new downside risks to labor. I do think they'll cut the next time there's a jobs report that's not very strong.

trump is trying to push out exactly 1 (one) member of the Fed: Lisa Cook.

Shocking that he's singled her out.

Surprisingly bad jobs number today. Still adding jobs, likely not keeping up with population. Unemployment ticks up from 4.1% to 4.2%.

Interest rates dropped pretty sharply

Inflation is up a touch. 2.7% (was 2.4% last month)

In this case, I would pay more attention to headline when trying to understand effect of tariffs. Core by definition is slower to react.

Study on effect of AI on software developers:

1. It slowed them down
2. They thought it was speeding them up

AI really only excels at creating the impression that it excels at things.
