Libtards and media wrong once again, the government shut down hasn't destroyed our economy or investments, both jobs and stocks are up since the shut down. Those non-essential government employees should simply get a job and start contributing to our country.

There is a strong element of comedy in this.

There are parking permits for BLM which are not being handed out, and EEO officers are off, and many of the coffee sippers in Personnel (now called "Human Resources") are off, and these people are not essential for anything.

Now we have Justme getting excited over every dead cat bounce in the market.

So now go and brag about how you have perfectly timed every single little pop in the market and how you have made a killing by making pennies on the dollar...

And John will be around shortly explaining how Trump turned a "1 million dollar loan" from his father into a multi billion dollar fortune in some 40 years. While bankrupting some 5 companies in the process.

Elkin, my boy, that has been explained many times, but you are too dumb to fathom it.

Not every business endeavor works out, and the road to billionaire status has many twists and turns, and the tax code is intended to be used.

Elkin, if you had had any success in life, you would already know these things are true.

Thousands travel to Omaha to hear from the Oracle of Omaha once a year.

Then there was "Trump University" the now defunct...massive scam.

Buffett has a documented investing track record over decades in time which are publicly available...and Trump still has not released tax returns.

The government shut down has proven just how bloated our government is with non essential workers. Trump is the master at making a point that others didn't even see coming. Democrats were all looking at the shinny object and missed where Trump was going. :D

So what are you saying...that Trump had planned the shut down all along because he knew that Mexicans weren't going to pay for the wall in the first place? And that his wall campaign promise was a bait and switch scheme to sucker conservatives?

Justme just admitted that there's a sucker born every minute.

Unless there is some mandate for every president to release his tax returns, why should any?

Besides -- and this has been explained many times to young Elkin -- any potential conflicts such as he appears to be seeking -- would be manifest in his financial disclosures which are very much available.

Obama was worth only about 700k when he attained the presidency, and at no time did young liberals complain when his net worth was multiplied many times via race-baiting ghostwritten books.

Presidential candidates have released their tax returns in the name of transparency to show that they have no conflicts of interest.

Now John Forbes will claim that financial disclosure forms are better? Are they really? I suppose that were true if you were an investor looking to evaluate an investment portfolio. Many people read Warren Buffett's annual report and quarterly filings to try to gain an insight on his views of investing and business. Well that's because the guy has a documented and proven track record of success...over decades of time.

Given Trump's track record of numerous bankruptcies and business failures, I hardly think anybody is going to waste their time to gain an insight on his views of investing and business in order to try to reproduce his holdings. Jeez...even Trump university was a scam. Are these financial disclosure forms even audited? Can they even be audited? Who knows?

Where the board whipping boy Leroy when you need em. I remember when Leroy would bloviate incessantly that electric cars would never see the light of day.

Johnnie...maybe you should expand your horizons and take a look at Alphabet...the Waymo proposition seems intriguing.

Funny you should mention that because I was watching a stock video just this morning on that.

Still, I'd hate to own that on its own, though I do of course own it via funds.

In other words, an analysis of it from an MBA perspective seems promising. However, I think that company (and other techs) have legislation and litigation risks which are not being properly evaluated by staffs limited to people with MBAs.

A loss of ad revenue is a greater risk to Alphabet than any regulatory risk. The google search engine is not biased...it's not designed to be that way.

The pharma industry is the most regulated industry in the country and they do very well. You don't need an MBA to figure that one out.

Stocks down again today because the economy isn't doing better with the partial government shut down.

For some reason RealTool overlooked his usual update. Don't know why.

I thought I would give him a hand.
#112662
RealTool is so petrified by the outlook for the Trump economy that he has been pushing gold for months now.

He knows we're going into the dumper soon because of the Trump tariffs and Trump's government shutdown.
