LOL if you think Joe had much control of that. But like any president, you get the hand you're dealt. In most cases, circumstances (good or bad) were put in place years before.

Uncle Warren keeps buying when it gets to $55, now owns 15% at around $57 avg I think. Fundamentals matter too. It's a $100ish next year (with oil over $70) if Buffet doesn't buy the whole enchilada. Stellar earnings yesterday, they'll hit their debt target and start share buybacks this qtr. Anyhoo, I feel safe going all in/out with it and it's been good to me this year.

Aside from occasional gambling on penny stocks with a little money...I always just play one thing, usually etf's. I was playing XLE until December when OXY cleared enough debt to no longer be a bankruptcy risk.

Most people I've heard think about another 10% S&P downside before the market makes a real rally.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/dow_jones?utm_medium=ingest&utm_source=markets) returned 56% during the Trump presidency, according to LPL. This represents an annualized gain of 11.8%, which is the best performance for any Republican president since Calvin Coolidge during the roaring 1920's.

During Trump's presidency, the Dow made 126 new all-time highs, which was slightly more than Obama's 123, but still lower than Clinton's 263. Both Obama and Clinton served two terms as president.

It did breakout to the upside $68 on Monday, I should've held over the weekend but I'm happy with a 10% weekly return, shit I'm happy with a 2% weekly return. Anyhoo, it should drop back to the 50ma around $58 plus there is a gap to fill right around that price. Also Uncle Warren has yet to buy a single share above the price on his convertible warrants ($59.50). If it doesn't drop back down, I'll decide a new entry price. It's a 50 to 100% gain in the next 12 months imo but it's an individual stock so anything can happen so I don't buy and hold and hope. Paper hands beats diamond hands 99.9% of the time.

I don't try to hit it big except when playing around gambling with disposable money. If your bank offered you a savings account with a 1% per week interest rate would you say that's not good enough or would you put all the money you could in it?

IMO at their next fed meeting they need to just rip the band aid off and raise rates 100 BPS. That probably sends the economy into a recession but imo that's inevitable now, it stops the bleeding with inflation.

I think that's somewhat Texas specific because the way Texas makes up for not having any income tax is by raping you on property taxes.

Their hands are tied at this point. Sometimes there's no solution other than let the shit break and start over. I just don't see an easy fix.

Their hands haven't been tied. They could've and should've started raising interest rates a year ago and they can still start gettin after it. They have just favored wall street over main street for so long that they will probably end up breaking both imho.

Wall Street is panicking about a recession. But consumer spending and cooling inflation means it's not going to happen, a US strategist argues.

At the end of last year, almost nobody was talking about a US recession. Now, the dreaded 'R' word is on everybody's lips.

A consensus is building on Wall Street that US economic growth is soon likely to turn negative, as the Federal Reserve hikes interest rates to cool rampant inflation.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has sent energy prices soaring, adding to inflation and making the Fed's job even harder. China's zero-COVID policy — which has shut down swathes of its economy — isn't helping.

Traditionally, a recession is defined as two quarters of decline in gross domestic product. Needless to say, it's not good for companies or their stock prices. The S&P 500 has tumbled this year, partly due to worries about growth.

But for all the doom and gloom, there are plenty who doubt the recession narrative, and say the US economy is still strong.

Michael Skordeles — a senior US macro strategist at Truist Advisory Services, part of the $66 billion bank — is one of those people.

"It's the consumer, stupid," he told Insider this week, paraphrasing James Carville's famous saying.

"We're not saying risks haven't increased," he said. "All the conditions were very favorable, and now they've gotten less favorable than that. But that doesn't mean it's a recession."

Skordeles said Americans are sitting on a lot of cash, thanks in large part to pandemic stimulus. Truist estimates consumers have built up $4.7 trillion in savings and deposits since the start of the coronavirus outbreak.

But Skordeles said $1.2 trillion of that has come since May 2021, when stimulus measures had mostly ended, largely as a resulto of a rise in wages.

Skordeles said the strong labor market — unemployment stood at 3.6% in April, near the lowest level since the 1950s — is helping people's wages and incomes grow. And although that is inflationary, it also means spending is likely to hold up.

Yet the Truist strategist said there's good news on inflation, too. A surge in spending on goods during the pandemic stressed out supply chains and contributed to soaring prices.

However, there's now evidence of a rotation back to spending on services, such as as life gradually returns to normal after the pandemic. Skordeles said that should help alleviate inflationary pressures.

Retail trade sales grew 6.7% in April compared to a year earlier, but spending on food services, such as restaurants, and drinking places shot up 19.8%.

At the heart of most economists' predictions for a recession is the Fed. In many analysts' eyes, the central bank will have to hike interest rates so high to choke off inflation that it will derail the economy.

Yet Skordeles said the recent slowdown in growth seen in the US and elsewhere — due to rising energy costs and uncertainty, among other things — could actually be a good thing for the economy overall, in the medium term. Combined with the shift to services spending, it's likely to mean the Fed hikes less hard than many expect.

"It's gonna be uneven. It's not gonna be a straight line. We expect continued volatility," Skordeles said. "But I think we get past it."

That's going to be a good subplot to follow. Consumer spending keeps outpacing inflation all these months, but one would think it'll slow down after the summer, so the question is whether the Fed puts the clamp down now or later on.

Yeah a recession this year or next seems unavoidable. As far as the market, a 100 BPS raise next week might actually be welcomed. After a day or two of freaking out of course lol.
I actually agree; imo the market is half reacting to rate hikes but also half reacting to the fed's incompetence and inability to assess economic conditions. A 100 BPS rate hike would shock the market but it would also show the fed is capable of taking decisive action.

It's funny that the fed is still debating over 25 BPS or 50 BPS rate hikes; at a minimum the debate should be about 50 BPS or 75 BPS rate hikes...instead the fed thinks its job is to operate as an extension of Wall Street so it's taken 75 BPS rate hikes off the table because any scenario where the fed might hurt the stock market is a non-starter.

The market has been surprisingly resilient with the higher interest rates. I see no reason it can't last through the rest of the year at least. Although July and August are traditionally slumpy months for the markets (especially in election years) there may be enough tailwind with potential interest rate cuts to keep the party going. I ran the numbers on the stocks and ETFs I own this morning and with one exception (losing on Pfizer) everything else is up between 12% and 50% since the first of the year. About to dump some more money in next week. Thinking about going long on copper producers.
