lj: Good luck with that. I don't think anything will change.
lj: The "pear phone" scenario is evolving. The pop in the stock was crazy, imo.
OT: gasoline Prices are back up to $3.50. Given the price of oil, there is first-class gouging happening. Refiners cannot blame it on the switchover to the summer blend. That happened a month or more ago.
I am disgusted. Usually, I am just annoyed.
lj: That cartoon/meme was perfect satire. I give it a 10!
lj: My understanding is that EV's will do a lot of tracking. Another reason not to buy one.
AI will close the deal on State monitoring of everything its citizens do.
lj: I use AI several times a week, and it is unbelievably helpful.
Unless Google juices up its searches with AI very, very soon, it will be obsolete.
lj: Thanks. Will check out the video on Monday. The election will be a VERY scary event.
If the Democrats sweep, there will be the mother of all selloffs.
The sick people in the Biden administration want to tax UNREALIZED capital gains.
Marxism 101. Even the Chicoms are not that tyrannical.
If the Dems sweep, I'll be selling most of my portfolio the following day.
Gmenfan: The story goes that his mother was a CIA agent. Makes sense. Otherwise, why was she in Indonesia?
lj: Good find. Interesting--no interruption-of-business coverage.
I guess that coverage in the oil industry could bankrupt an insurer,
Gmenfan: Nailed it. It won't be Michelle, it will be Hillary. Hillary's cackling these days puts Kamala's cackling to shame. But the Obama camp will fight hard to prevent it. Hussein wants a 4th term.
The harpies in the White House cannot even prep Ol' White Joe for a debate, much less put him in one. He is beyond help.
al44: The Dems will stop at nothing to retain power. They are going to run Michelle. They need to get back much of the Black vote that is going to Trump.
Personally, I think Black males would pick Trump over Michelle.
Nearly 100 percent of black females would vote for her.
JMO.
lj: If it gets back to $5, I'll sell the shares I just purchased to slowly get back to even!
lj: Happy Father's Day
Next Wednesday is George Floyd Day.
Closing the stock market is OUTRAGEOUS.
It is a fake holiday, a creation of Democrats seeking the votes of African Americans.
Happy Father's Day, LJ.
lj: oil inventories
The whole scenario is beyond belief.
On the petrol front, prices in this area have leveled off around $3.25. The school year ended this week, and next week is a VERY big week for vacation travel, as people head toward the beach resorts and other places. College kids are home running all over the place. HOWEVER, the extreme heat in the Southwest, and the 3-days of rain in southern Florida should reduce gasoline use. Also, all of the gas-guzzling school buses are back on the parking lots for summer.
That being said, I traveled about 10 miles today to buy my tomato plants, and traffic was VERY light. (My vegetable gardening in one-month behind schedule. 90-degree weather starts tomorrow, so I'm hoping they will grow fast.) Electricity usage (AC) will surge for the next week.
That should help the "AI" utilities (namely, companies with nuke plants).
The above is just a peon's theses!
lj: MSTR
It is always something. IMO, the stock has dropped like a rock. This peon will keep the powder dry before adding shares.
lj: True. I have watched CEG drop a significant percentage over the past week or so.
Scam is the right word.
lj: GRRR
Good detective work, LJ. This is very disappointing. Disgusting.
lj: SMCI and MSTR
SMCI: Very nice move today. Headed back to the 52-week high and an eventual forward 10:1 forward split???
10:1 splits are becoming the rage in tech stocks. I own a big 12 shares.
MSTR: Check out the chart for the week. This has to be traded, not held.
lj: The problem with the dollar is very troubling.
lj: GRRR
Well, we'll see whether they do another reverse split at some point.
wadegarret: HALO
Well, maybe opportunity will knock. The stock goes lower, and a bargain appears.
al44: A subpoena by a Committee that has mysteriously lost its records of the testimony.
On another note, today we learn that Fauci "allegedly" was involved in trying to turbocharge the monkeypox virus. You know, gain of function.
Lock 'em all up. In Fauci's case, throw away the key.
nelson1234: XOM
$256, not $156?
ecoblot: FRD
Thank you. I still am holding most of my position.
NYBob: If anyone belongs in jail, it is him. He is an accessory by proxy to every crime committed by people who got out due to no-bail laws.
Gmenfan: The amazing thing is that they took 20-some percent of the seats in the European Parliament.
Gmenfan: I believe he rear-ended someone. The DailyMail will get to the bottom of this. Should he be driving?
NYBob: It opens the door for Biden to pardon his son and Trump. Mark my words, it will happen. He cannot have sonny boy going to the pen.
GRRR still on a downtrend. EOM
r59: LUV
Elliott activist group has taken a sizable position. I guess they will be going after management in a big way, given the sad state of the company. Hopefully they will MSWAGA!
Started a position today at $29 and change, and will add shares on pullbacks, if there are any.
lj: GRRR
Stupidity alert: I doubled down in my reverse-split-ravaged positions. Pre-split, the cost per share would be about 41 cents, which was the point at which I would buy 1K, 2K shares and make a decent profit. Now, I buy 200 shares. I HATE, HATE, HATE reverse splits.
As it stands now, the reverse split was a big failure. The only upside is that the EPS will look good, assuming there IS an eps.
OT: Petrol is $3.21 around here. Still ridiculously high.
al44: Ironic, wouldn't you say? But what is the cost per pound, as opposed to mining it. The devil is in the details.
Probably another schizo. There is HORRIFIC. Regardless, she should be executed. Taxpayers shouldn't have to foot the bill for her for the rest of her miserable life. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13505815/ohio-giant-eagle-stabbing-julian-wood-killer-footage.html
al: Merrick Garland, who, in my opinion is deranged, is in deep do-do and he knows it. Doesn't he know that Dems will not stay in power forever and that the truth is out there. But then again, the person who nominated him for a seat on the Supreme Court is pulling the strings--B. Hussein Obamination.
One more thing, al44, the J6 committee destroyed all of their findings, according to President Trump.
al44: EXCELLENT post. Bannon, like Navarro, is being sent to the Federal pen for 4 months on a misdemeanor conviction. This is unprecedented. I will call one of Johnson's office's tomorrow. IMO, he is a narcissistic weakling.
lj: Saw on Bloomberg News that there is a worldwide oversupply of gasoline. At $3.40 a gallon, there is no oversupply around here!
lj: Any Republican who doesn't vote for Trump is not a Republican.
USA Today--left wing. EOM
Bannon scheduled to go to prison on July 1. I have been predicting for months that they would lock him up in July to keep him off of the War Room in the months leading up to
the election. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13502593/steve-bannon-prison-sentence-july-1-contempt-congress.html
lj: OT Just saw on article on the Daily Mail, listing the "narrowed" list of Trump's possible VP picks. Your girl didn't make the list. She is on another list of Trump's. Begins with the letter "s"!
