  1. so you timed the market? just remember that you need to time your return into it. you're halfway there. I sense some anger and resentment. perhaps I'm in error.
  2. I think it holds more weight when you show the actual speaker on video
  3. if I was worth $150 mil, I could live with that error. As it is, I can live with that error. If the market doesn't bounce back within a couple years, I will have to live with the error of not pulling out, but much less comfortably. So what are you doing with your market holdings right now? let's see how your prediction works out in 1 or 2 years. Go on record.
  4. your intellectual dishonesty is hilarious if not profoundly sad. you asked for data. I provided it. you reject it out of hand, without data to support your "argument". btw, what does race have to do with it? look it up. As Frank pointed out, there are plenty of whites in that demographic including Vance's family members. losers....As far as why the losers (like you?) changed their party, it's multifactorial but anger, resentment, the longing to believe in an economic and cultural messiah and the belief they have found someone who (pretends to) listen to them all play a role.
  5. Cramer's worth $150 mil. Sometimes the best prognosticators get it wrong. https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-businessmen/wall-street/jim-cramer-net-worth/
  6. and that's going to help increase your personal discretionary income how? but you'll "own the libs". Bravo, retribution will be swift and substantial....
  7. They know it - I hope. if not, they're hopeless. Posting a dishonest piece typical of alt right media and getting caught is disgraceful. They've learned from their evil leader - "never admit you're wrong". Of course, the publisher OK'ed every word in the front page story. And of course, the dishonest author of the shyte right blog, read the front page story before posting this bs. This is how they roll... btw, do you remember actually reading a physical paper? I love having coffee and paging through when staying in a nice hotel with a view. You need to turn the front page to get to the editorials....Bman likely has never done that?
  8. well no. that would be 51/49. this was 51/47. but your analogy is more apt for the popular vote for president. they played a role especially in places like Fla or Texas. But there are many Hispanic voters in that earnings demographic. I might even say most but I'm not certain it's over 51%. We'll leave that to Doc Brown. Neverthelessless, there are more voters making less than 100k than there are purely hispanic voters. please fact check me, doc!
  9. 51 is more than 47. by a margin significantly greater than that which the president was elected. it's arguable whether that demographic won it for him. That Trump won 77,284,118 votes, or 49.8 percent of the votes cast for president. That is the second highest vote total in U.S. history, trailing only the 81,284,666 votes that Joe Biden won in 2020. Trump won 3,059,799 more popular votes in 2024 than he won in 2020 and 14,299,293 more than he won in 2016. He now holds the record for the most cumulative popular votes won by any presidential candidate in U.S. history, surpassing Barack Obama. Running three times for the White House obviously helps. Kamala Harris won 74,999,166 votes or 48.3 percent of the votes cast. That was 6,285,500 fewer popular votes than Biden won in 2020, but 774,847 more than Trump won in 2020.
  10. 17 The number of points that voters who make less than $100,000 a year shifted in Trump's favor. The country is in a political realignment with working-class voters moving even more in Republicans' favor and wealthier and more educated voters moving in Democrats' direction. Four years ago, Biden won voters who make less than $100,000 a year, 56%-43%, but Trump won them 51%-47% in this election. On the flip side, in 2020, Trump won those making $100,000 a year by 12 points four years ago, and Harris won them this time by 4. from npr https://www.npr.org/2024/12/27/nx-s1-5222570/2024-politics-recap
  11. This link actually says 59% https://www.cbsnews.com/news/saving-money-emergency-expenses-2025/ I said "mostly voted for trump". Look at the voter demographics from 2024
  12. That's because you and the "we" responsible for this yellow journalistic garbage supposedly didn't bother to look at the front page article that links the publisher's letter somehow (doesn't surprise me that you didn't fact check what you shared). !/2 truths are untruths...but that's who you are.
  13. No. You. I linked the front page article of last Cortland Standard which included a 25% tariff on newsprint as a cause for closing. And you double down...on lying. Shameless I heard an R commentator on CNN say that 56% of Americans can't drum up $1000 for an emergency expense. They mostly voted for trump. They don't have 401k's. They don't care except they really, really want to "own the libs". But, yeah, I'm not looking. Unfortunately, my mental arithmetic is still fairly good.
  14. This is the last edition of the Cortland Standard you will ever read. The family-owned newspaper will cease publication, a casualty of declining readership and increasing costs, including an expected 25% tariff on newsprint. It was the second-oldest family-owned newspaper in New York, but one of the five oldest family-owned newspapers in America. “I hoped this day would never come,” said Publisher and Editor Evan C. Geibel. “I’m so very grateful to my colleagues and the community for what they’ve done for me, my family and each other.” https://www.cortlandstandard.com/stories/goodbye-cortland-and-godspeed,133575 who is lying now b boy?
  15. the pattern that I see and is most concerning is trump's capitulation to putin.
  16. washing machine died after 15 years. went out to replace it and saw a friend in the parking lot. he said he had recently bought a dishwasher even though his was somewhat functional because he thought prices would increase significantly soon. I hadn't really considered that. these are strange times. all types of strange economic forces at work and most aren't good for American consumers or investors.
  17. What a deal! https://thehill.com/policy/international/5192475-russia-putin-ukraine-ceasefire/
  18. Geez, I can't figure out why MAGAs ignore the price tag for these tax cuts...
  19. II love pastrami https://katzsdelicatessen.com/pastrami but I can imagine it not being a favorite of radical Muslims. Radicals of any stripe suck.
  20. no one here is the least bit surprised. you're a man baby like your cult leader.
  21. Welp, there goes whatever was left of real Republicans. Conservative posters here aren't bothered. there aren't any traditional R's. The tent is getting smaller https://finance.yahoo.com/news/the-stock-markets-fate-all-depends-on-tariffs-080026877.html Guggenheim Partners Investment Management CIO Anne Walsh told Yahoo Finance on Wednesday that the "the on, then off, then on and then off again narrative" surrounding tariffs is driving volatility in the market. And as long as that persists, there likely isn't a direct path higher for stocks. "It doesn't feel like a smooth trajectory [for stocks] because of all of the noise," Walsh said. Piper Sandler chief investment strategist Michael Kantrowitz recently offered similar sentiment, writing in a note to clients: "[We’re] unlikely to see a material recovery in equities until we see the start of fiscal policy uncertainty abating," noting that a recent surge in fiscal policy uncertainty, as measured by an index tracked on Bloomberg and seen below, has coincided with the market's recent slide.
  22. Most everyone is tightening their belts. meanwhile Tommy Tuberville says "no pain, no gain" which is the opposite of orange slobs campaign promises. https://www.wsj.com/economy/consumers/consumer-angst-is-striking-all-income-levels-ab32d5d5 or we could wait til the next pandemic and discourage vaccine use on far right media...It's clinical language
  23. shocker! but we don't need their stinking business. hopefully they keep selectively targeting the red states. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/12/i-feel-utter-anger-from-canada-to-europe-a-movement-to-boycott-us-goods-is-spreading
  24. I just golfed with a guy who has a house in Kiawah. He thinks they'll be many fewer Canadian renters for it this year. Can you blame them? I told him he should advertise his D party affiliation on VRBO. Either that or he can gift me a few weeks there.
  25. it's difficult to ignore a tesla crash on the side of the road, but try...This guy is a total wreck. try to ignore him. it's what will hurt him the most.
