Watching BTC sell off gotta make him sick with fear that the days of selling nonsense are drawing to a close.

Yeah from what I’m seeing millennials and gen z’s have mostly dodged the right wing propoganda machine. Gen X though is succumbing.

How very apropos that the scam economy’s two biggest stalwarts are led by men named “Karp” and “Musk”

Oh fuck

I swear to god these people would jump out of their skin if a butterfly sneezed too loud. Fucking pathetic.

Huge MS fan but I don’t honestly know how you can equate anything on the far left to the kkk adjacent gremlins that are breaking down the wall between far right and Fox News right.

I’m tempted to Derek Guy a thread on Wusthof Classic vs Gourmet series knives for everyone.

I can’t believe they’re worried. This passing 70/30 I bet.

It’s early but it’s nearing arrested development territory.

At least he’s not pretending to be anything but a shill. Dems repeatedly get tricked into voting in people who pretend to be a populist and then finding out they’re Fetterman or Sinema.

All factual. I think the market however will make up its mind on the oral arguments. Pretty easy to count votes based off of the questions the justices ask.

Also, all of the SCOTUS noise is moot if Trump rolls back to 10% on China this week which is what I’m predicting.
October 29, 2025 at 1:10 PM
What I do know is some people are going to be offsides thinking they had until Nov 5th (date scotus starts the deliberations) to get in front of the news. Now it happens this week.
October 29, 2025 at 11:13 AM
I truly don’t know. I think no one dared go short or to cash before this happened but once it does, you get rid of this weird market put we’ve had. I think I’ll derisk into the euphoria and try to scoop up some more gold as it slides on the news.
October 29, 2025 at 10:59 AM
The real question I now have… is this a sell into the euphoria or do we sustain the run in anticipation of our economy getting a bump from the trade nonsense being discarded?
October 29, 2025 at 10:54 AM
The market has defied gravity all these months in anticipation of this final moment. I couldn’t sell before the trade war blow the lid moment happened. Well. Here it comes.
October 29, 2025 at 10:52 AM
What trade is best? Clearly the chip makers have all run in anticipation of this happening. Gold has cratered. Chinese stocks are catching a bid… it’s all lining up for a blow the lid off moment.
October 29, 2025 at 10:46 AM
My hunch is we get access to rare earths, China buys beans (bean prices are already climbing in anticipation) and we go back to 10% rate.
October 29, 2025 at 10:43 AM
With time running out, Trump needs to get some minor concession and agree to roll off the tariffs so that he can take credit for ending the trade war that he started.
October 29, 2025 at 10:42 AM
I believe SCOTUS has already back channeled this info to Trump so he is aware of the clock ticking.
October 29, 2025 at 10:40 AM
SCOTUS will soon strip Trump of his ability to unilaterally shot call a tariff rate. He will lose all power to bargain with China when that happens.
