Yes. Loved the train. And yes, it was French: Schiaparelli. Here's the whole story:
Dr. Jill Biden Opts for French Fashion—with an American Touch—at the State Dinner in France

What? Yes, he's found some ways to do both.
Instead of spending your time whining on this message board, you should read the news. By which I naturally do not mean winger junk. I mean the dreaded "MSM".
The train was great. I wonder if she went to a French designer.
You can't have been paying attention. Biden's managed to get some debt forgiven, despite the opposition of the Republicans. He's also exploring ways to help states make community colleges free, and state universities less expensive.
So why don't you inform yourself before starting on a new whine?
I'm glad to see that. It's a good place to go to college. I lived here for all four years:
Beebe Hall
Arr, ahoy mateys! Students refer to this hall as a pirate ship due to its nautical-themed stained glass windows. Beebe was named after a Nantucket sea captain whose daughter, Alice, graduated from Wellesley in 1896.
No one EVER said anything at all about pirates. And I don't remember any "nautical-themed stained glass windows."
I am not into your nutty conspiracy stuff. Sorry.
Wish I got college tuition for free to a university that I could not afford with all the great amenities. Wish I did not have to work during college. But, now generous taxpayers like yourself can pay.
You're dishonestly misstating what Biden's doing. The people who're having their student loans cancelled have already paid tons of money on those loans. But with interest, they still owe, even in their 40s and 50s.
Hey, want a free ride? Work for it. I went to Wellesley. If you were accepted and your parents couldn't afford tuition and board, you'd be offered financial aid. Not a loan. Same was true for the Ivies and the other Seven Sisters. Don't know if it's still true today. But if you show promise, you're likely to get at least some kind of aid. Free.
Jill Biden's dress for the state dinner in Paris was great!

A Republican could run on that wealth creation, IF they could mange to create it without their usual trickle down tax cuts and recessions.
If they could, they'd be Democrats.
Probably, if he'd had time. But I think he was as blindsided as everyone else by the awful Q and the announcement of the 75 million share offering.
That's why he delayed starting the livestream. He should just have cancelled it.
Oh God. Not another new paradigm. Somehow they never seem to work out.
Yep. It'll be interesting.
You can't get broccoli rabe? I'll bet you can, if you look. Far as I know, there's one major producer: Andy Boy. Around here, you can get it at any supermarket or greengrocer. But then it's very popular with Italian Americans.
But I'll still bet you can find it. The season is fall and winter, as with most brassicas. But it's available in many places all year round.
Thanks, Andy Boy!
Also called rapini:

The longer it cooks, the better it gets.

I make it with pasta, and I must say I've never had to overcook it. Some people don't like it because they find it bitter. While it isn't sweet in the way broccoli can be, I don't think it's unpleasantly bitter, either.
Yep. He lost $235 million.

Is this Let's Not Make Sense night? Saturday?
I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. But I think you need to learn much more about this stuff. Especially options trading.
167 Short selling central banks closed today. Insolvent!
Today is a Saturday. And only 569 banks in the U.S. have failed since the year 2000:

June 21st is 9 trading days away from expiring
June 24th is the T1 day of share delivery
June 28th is the T3,day for FTD options delivery from 21 June
WTF?? Options trades settle on T+1. As they have for a long time, along with futures. And if you've missed it, equities also settle on T+1 now.
Kitty owns June 21 calls with a 20 strike. That means they expire on June 21. So either he sells them before expiry, or he exercises them upon expiry. Or, if things go south, they expire worthless.
Yes. Now they're even closer together than before. Makes no sense.
And that's why I forgot.
What we see or know - what do memes mean
Memes mean nothing to sane market participants.
Can you offer a reason why it should bounce?
I assume Seize the Grey is a grey. I like greys, so I'd have been disappointed.
Yes indeed! Efficient!!
I think he planned it before Cohen dumped 75 million shares and before the lousy Q was dropped.
Yes, he did.
Makes sense to me.
You're welcome!
The last would be satisfyingly dramatic, I think.
Damn, I just realized I completely missed the Preakness, which I guess is now much earlier than it used to be, AND the Belmont, which was today.
I hope not.
If so, he probably would have thought it was a good way to make his departure.
lol, I believe the article said it was a Beechcraft...
Maybe he had a heart attack or stroke while in the air...
I love broccoli rabe. Though I see no reason why it should cost $3.50 or more for a bunch.
That was good! And the salad should give k9narc an idea for what to do with all that quinoa.
Will he be found facedown in a Mexican stream like the management of SRGE??
That would be WONDERFUL!! How I miss those days!!
Apparently he needs to hold those options until 06/21.
No. No one ever has to hold options till expiry. Most don't. The longer you hold options, the more you lose to time decay. And if he does decide to exercise, he'd have to come up with $240 million, which would mean selling a lot of his stock, with predictable results.
Gill does have a problem: he has so many calls--120,000 contracts--that if he dumps too many, he'll drive the price WAY down, Yesterday, the last trade in those calls was priced at $9.75. On Thursday, they'd closed at $27.02. Reportedly, Gill bought his at about $5, so his position has already taken quite a hit.
People on the GME board are saying they think he "knows" what Cohen is planning, and so he's hanging on. I very much doubt that, because I don't think Cohen wants to go to prison on insider trading charges.
That's amazing!
Czeching CNBC these days is like walking past a hot craps table at the old Binion's Horseshoe at 3AM on a Saturday night. Rampant stoopidity.
LOLOLOL!! I've watched a few CNBC "updates"--breathless stuff about GME--and they seem to have lost their minds. It's just bizarre.
according to the chart, the vertical red line went all the way to the top, that means funds spent to short the stock.
No. That is not what it means. Though the trading was odd. Lots of mostly-small trades.
