Inflation does combine to put us squarely into bear market territory. Housing prices have now officially started to fall (again, in nominal dollars).
What I still can't figure out is the job market. It just seems to be going, and going, and going, and going. I get the push for re-shoring and all that, but the US$ is at a multi decade high, and exports are, necessarily, getting clobbered.
Who in the world is making the payroll on all these people?

The S&P company’s earnings reports should tell us the answer to your last question.
Your hero the Bidet is going to make the economy turn to schiett and you're stupid enough to think it's just an accident.
What is it about "I promise you I will destroy the fossil fuel industry" that you fail to get? You insist on proving that like the Bidet, you too are as stupid as schiett.

The stock markets will be just fine and we’ll all prosper endlessly because the Patriots are in charge and Q beam says to trust the system. Biden and the democrats in charge right now are merely apparitions and figments of people’s imaginations.
Ask poor demented Sock puppet Eyeball Jag about this. He will confirm it with vehemence and 20 blurred pics all dated properly if you can read it.

Taiwan increasing their energy stockpiles of natural gas, coal and crude oil with the China threat. Taiwan also increasing their military budget.
Hey dumb azzzz the fluctuations in the market has been caused by the stumbling Biden agencies release of the fed rates and employment data. Your president is causing this

Uh, maybe "payroll" is inflated?
We have lost several unskilled oil changers to $25 an hour doing something else. That something else is an inflated rate for something they aren't even in the league for.

I hear ya...
IMHO... jobs are about to fall off a cliff...
Post Midterms...
Part of a 2 year plan... make it a RINO problem... to gain future D supremacy... i.e. 51% begging for Socialism.
As long as JackMountain keeps paying taxes, my investments are good.
Interesting perspective...
A GC friend of mine Dan does DOD/FBI type stuff...
Put in a SCIF door last week. $22k on the door... (that is $11k for the door and $11k on the labor (3 men @ 1 day).
Also an $8k C.O. to reinforce the wall...
That $8k... was $300 in material... one day of labor for two men.
Another friend at the NN shipyard put a SS ice cream machine in to a sub... $360k. Machine cost less than $10k.
All these guys get paid with YOUR tax dollars... or JMs.
Personally, I don't think that is sustainable... or at least... not forever.
But to each his own... I reckon.
Well, at least I know how THEY are able to make payroll.....
The biggest American problem is that government spending and healthcare is more than 50% of our economy, and there are no meaningful cost controls on any of it. Just spend, bill, spend, bill.
If we're going to make the transition to actually MAKING some stuff again, we better figure out how to make stuff on a budget (again).
Even though fed and state requirements reach deep into a company and cost that company money at every step, the labor rates being charged are unsustainable for the taxpayer.
Various politicians have attempted to address the costs. Remember the issue of $1000 toilet seats installed on B-52’s back in the 80’s that the Reagan Administration tried to address…….?
I started thinking that maybe I hadn't been giving Toot the credit he deserves for the news AND wisdom he shares with us, so I took occasion to reread the thread. I trimmed out the banter and have provided his substantive responses below. You know, instead of being a bunch of smartazz ingrates, we should be paying him for his services to our community. I think the hardest hitting jewel in the the below pearls of wisdom is "markets are volatile." Pause and ponder the genius in that comment. Please join me in coming to appreciate the incredible value that he brings to this family. That is all. Carry on.

I walk thru Walmart or Dollar General once a month... just to observe the EBTs, the Medicaids, the Medicares... the 800 pound load rated scooters.
Cost Of Admission I pay... kinda thing.
We used to go to D.C. some (Shakespeare @ The Folgers etc.), but D.C. is so much more disgusting than Walmart... we don't go anymore.

Walmart for the sheer humanity entertainment value is well worth the free price of admission versus the pissed off aggravation of being a tax payer from it.
Unlike a gunshow where ya gotta pay to get in . With the same dynamics involved in many ways.
You gonna do a Happy Camper jig over the great Xi news?
Chinese leader Xi was named over the weekend to a third, five-year term as general secretary, ignoring the custom of stepping down after two terms, as the Associated Press reported. Xi also dropped No. 2 leader Premier Li Keqiang, a proponent of market-style reform and private enterprise, from a seven-member Standing Committee in favor of stronger Xi allies.

It seems that the low bred, low IQ gang of name callers, foot stompers, tantrums throwing pissants has grown rather quiet about today’s earlier markets predictions by the pundits as posted.
Real quiet like as they scurry for cover like rats pack that they are.
Chinese stocks crash losing $70 billion in a single day attributed to the perceived non business, non capitalistic leanings of the new Chinese leadership cabal.
It is expected that Chinese investors and others who invested in China will turn towards the US stock markets and US Bond markets for safety and appreciation as well as towards other capitalists minded Nations.

Lmao!!
I am telling you, it was one hell of a historic day on Wall Street. The Dow rose 1.3%!!! Had it risen by 5 times that much, the gains would have made the top 20 list of all time. If the S&P's shocking 1.2% gain had only been 6 times higher, it would have cracked the top 20 list. Folks, you can't possibly throw Toots your money fast enough. Toots, if you aren't handling people's money professionally, you missed your calling.
I didn't buy or sell any stock or mutual funds but I did mail in my absentee ballot today. Straight R's plus a few ballot measures. Gives a fellow hope.

Just read all 9 pages of this drivel and have positively concluded that Houston is a dip$hit of the highest order. Who starts crap like this just to stir a pot and be a pain in the ass, I guess that’s our old friend Toot. Good grief . . . grow the hell up.

That’s par for your mentality. Thanks for contributing.
And what does a day or a week have anything to do with supposedly showcasing your financial expertise? Again, the market has been crushed this year and we are in a recession, but suspect you aren’t aware of that.

Market futures for tomorrow up nicely at the moment.
Dow up390 S&P up 40 Nasdaq up 100
But no comments yet from the pundits.
You are not reading that correctly. For example the futures right after the market close would be a subtraction or addition to the actual close. In this case the futures for the Dow are actually down a little over 20 points.

When my Uncle Passed he was able to give 3 of his kids $880.000 an 1Mil house to one a 5 acre ranch to another. and 100K to each of three others. He retired as an Electrical engineer at 55 and was in his mid 80 when he left us. His Job after retiring was the Market 3 to 5 hours a day every day. He did not make his money at his 9 to 5 as an Engineer. he made it after he retired.

Gotten a few feelers about starting a stock market/investing forum.
Thoughts.
It would become a WWE event that would rival the "WrestleMania's" of the '90's.
Maybe but there’s some very knowledgeable people here who’s insight and experience could add a lot.
I’m speaking of those presently in the investment business, the insurance business, those retired who guided money for their former employers and successful individual investors.

Getting to where a fella can’t say scchitt even if he had a mouth full of it.
Market pundits expecting another .75 bump up in rates this week with language to follow the increase indicating a softer approach to rates beyond this increase.
FED hikes .75 basis points and signals smaller hikes to follow if needed. Latest jobs report led to the current .75 bump upward.
WSJ, NY Post
Not exactly good reporting. His comments were far from dovish and he did NOT say smaller hikes as needed. Could very well be a continued .75% push into the future. He didn’t tip his hand one way or another which is why the market tanked in the last hour of trading. Had he said “smaller hikes to follow” as you wrongly state then I suspect the market wouldn’t have went “red”.
FED hikes .75 basis points and signals smaller hikes to follow if needed. Latest jobs report led to the current .75 bump upward.
WSJ, NY Post
Not exactly good reporting. His comments were far from dovish and he did NOT say smaller hikes as needed. Could very well be a continued .75% push into the future.

G 10 Central Banks including ECB, BoC, FED and RBA are signaling lesser future increases to interest rates than in the past and are using more doveish rhetoric for future rates increases if needed.
I’m not bothered Toot, just amused. And I enjoy you embracing your new self anointed position as “financial market” expert of the Campfire. Do tell, what do we owe you for this vast expertise you bring to us???

You seem very bothered, frannie Boy.
Posting articles and professional opinions is hardly the work of a Campfire financial market expert but I can see where that would be far over your head and totally escape you.
You’re coming across as being as dumb as the Glee Club Howler Monkeys and they’re always looking for recruits such as yourself. Go to them.
The Gold market did 100% overshoot in 1980. The Gold market did 70% overshoot in 2011. The stock market did 100% undershoot in 2003. MSFT took until 2016 to recover from the 2000 dotcom bubble burst.
Looking at these curves, i can imagine the stock market is within 20% of the bottom, and will take years to recover.
It looks bad if you are old and selling stocks to live on. It looks ok if you are young and buying stocks.

Toot Toot Song for your Toot Toot listening pleasure...
Ultra high net worth families are relocating from northern states to the south. Main destinations are Texas, Georgia and Florida with Colorado in the mix.
Union Bank Of Switzerland is following along opening multiple locations in the south to compete with Merrill Lynch and other wealth management companies there.

Well said.
My Fidelity person is telling me there’s some major foreign money out there looking to get into the US markets and hoping that a bottom is developing. Right now much of that money is in our Bond markets.
Fidelity Investments believes that Crypto currencies are in no way a fad and they’ presently settling up Fidelity Crypto where retail investors can buy and sell crypto currencies free of commissions as long as a $1 balance is kept in the account.

FWIW.
I am guessing my big tech stocks could go 20% lower at the bottom.
Stocks go up after elections. Things should go up a little in 5 days if reps get the house and senate.
If we get a "reduce taxes and regs" President in 2024, I expect more recovery.

Tooty fruity. You said repeatedly that stock market bottomed out in May this year
Can’t keep up with your lies. Lol

FED Governors now saying that hawkish policy has now recently shifted to a new phase of using lower interest rate hikes to effect inflation containment.
The Glee Club Howler Monkey support is always appreciated.

So acting as a parrot and simply quoting headlines, I have an honest question. Your primary motivation for keeping this thread going is:
A. You are proving to us that you have vast financial wisdom to share and are educating the “fire” with cutting and pasting headlines.
B. You love to hear yourself talk/write.
We all know it’s “B” but looking forward to your answer.
BTW, this morning headline you posted is now wrong given stocks have given back their gain and are now in the RED. Better update the group as to why and who is reporting on it. See ya Toot.

Look in the mirror Toot. You write drivel on top of more drivel. It’s completely meaningless. Kind of like watching CNN, which we know is right in your breadbasket. Keep going strong, this is some good humor!!

Glad to have you onboard and to finally see you increasing your financial acumen.
Standby there’s more to come.
You seem so bothered and dang near distraught by your musings here. Try to add value if it’s in your capacity to do so, as yet unseen.

Uhhh, ’frannie boi’, would you care to revisit and revise your last paragraph quoted here? Just in case you missed today’s markets closing numbers.
I can help you should you need it and you most likely will need the help.
You really do belong with the Glee Club Howler Monkeys.
I’m hopeful that the rest of the Glee Club Howler Monkeys didn’t start boozing too early tonight. They’re known to do such when depressed thus their need for group moral support.
There is no glee club. Just the majority of members that think your bizarrre headline posts are a sign of mental weakness.
Read this again Toot. When everyone, literally everyone is saying the same thing it’s time you look in the mirror. Jackmountain is right, no glee club, just a bunch of guys calling a spade a spade.
Just curious, why did you need to change your name? Trying to run from all the collateral damage you caused?? Figures.

You and little jackoffmolehill are 2 peas in the same pod, franny boi. You’re most definitely Glee Club Howler Monkey material and I know they’re happy to have you.
Now about your revisiting and revising your statement that you made which I quoted you on above? You have anything to lend on that today? Probably not as you’ve already tucked tail on that.
“Collateral damage you caused”!! Such drama, franny boi!!
Damn but you are dumb and an excellent fit for the GCHM boys.
Hey, almost forgot to thank you for your contributions to the thread subject, I do so now.
I'd say the only boost would be from more of the people realizing that if they spend their money right f'ing now, it'll buy more than it would if they wait until next week or tomorrow, or even ten minutes from now.

Yessir. Just like back in the 1970s when inflation was ramping up to a crescendo. People felt that if we don’t buy it now it’ll only cost more later on and they weren’t wrong.
Lots of similarities. The past is pretty much prologue.
Why is anyone replying to Houston 2? It's clear that he gets sexual gratification from the attention of other men. Your replies make you enablers of his deviant behaviour.
Still bedded down in TTT and TBT for my biggest positions, as I've been all year. Doesn't feel good to bet against the US economy but I didn't vote for this administration.

This will be an interesting week with the elections and economic reports.
Your thoughts on Bitcoin and Ethereum going forward?

I bought 3000 shares in July of TBF. Might sell this month
