No changes for tomorrow. Short the market, long gold, long NVDA.
Today was short term no pain = equities, which is kinda right cuz the case is going nowhere, especially with that drunk ho in charge of it.
OTOH gold is taking the longer view that the dollar will suffer, which is also right.

Powell did the smart thing releasing that right as the futures open. The rise in gold probably makes Trump happy, he's too stupid to understand what that means, but if ES drops enough he might actually notice.

I'll preface this with saying that I'm a liberal and think liberalism is good, but the mewling about training from so many Dems is an absurd example of liberal proceduralist pathology.
Chris Murphy: "The amount of training that's given to an ICE officer has been cut in half by this administration. The number of days of training they get are 47. You know why they get 47 days? As an homage to the vanity of POTUS. No wonder the number of violent incidents are going through the roof."

It is also the line domestic violence perpetrators use - "she had it coming".
The “if she had complied, she’d still be alive” line that we’re hearing from ICE defenders is the mantra of apologists for security forces in dictatorships through the ages.

I actually spent a decent amount of time coming up with a plan to continue working next year while collecting SS AND not paying any taxes, other than SS & Medicare: work for the first nine months of the year, start taking SS in Jan. Use the SS to pay for everyday life, put the salary in my 401k.

I don't think it's a coincidence that all of this (worldwide) is happening when most of the people who lived through WWII have just died. We need to do a better job of keeping their memories and ideals alive.

Going to the record store to buy a 45 rpm single of that song you love listening to on the radio, and picking up the radio station's list of top hits while you were there.
Did that every week practically when I was between 8 and 12 years old.
