  1. I think Perplexity is giving you inaccurate information. Cheers!
  2. So Cubs, who is responsible for this...Biden or Trump? Cheers! https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-labor-market-adds-147000-jobs-in-june-while-unemployment-falls-to-41-192105531.html
  3. Some big news for Balkar and White Falcon this week! Congratulations Balkar! Cheers! https://www.whitefalconcap.com/post/white-falcon-x-windermere
  4. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/250530/t006a-eng.htm https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/250530/cg-a001-eng.htm I would imagine there will be some contraction in the next few quarters due to the tariff issue. Canada will probably go through a recession...maybe already beginning it. But as you can see from Statistics Canada above...while growth has been slow...there has been growth for the last several years. Tech jobs are more prevalent in the U.S. It's why so many people go there to work from other countries, including Canada. But the tech industry overall in Canada is growing. Cheers!
  5. You are not getting proper information by using AI chatbots...geez, how many people are doing this now and not getting all of the data?! Let's look at more recent articles...the trends you refer to have been for the last few years...but decreased in 2024, and I would imagine decreased even further in 2025. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/36-28-0001/2025003/article/00004-eng.htm https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/canadian-immigrants-united-states Cheers!
  6. +1! Cheers!
  7. +1! Cheers!
  8. +1! Cheers!
  9. Not yet. He cuts taxes, lowers rates and floods the U.S. with investment and jobs...there definitely will be inflation. Cheers!
  10. Totally agree with you! But unfortunately, ever since the GFC, this whole maintaining 2% inflation goal has simply created distortions we probably don't understand. Same with quantitative easing...it worked...but what path in the multiverse did we steer into? Only time will tell. Cheers!
  11. I'm pretty sure they've been an "unexceptional no moat" company for the last 5 years! Cheers!
  12. With all of the stimulus that will come from Trump policies, reducing rates probably would have created massive inflation long-term. Trump policies will create lots of jobs, increase consumer spending, reduce taxes, increase investments...and those policies are probably tempered now by reduced illegal employment, decreased spending by the bottom 50%, flat interest rates, lower energy prices and a slump in housing. One or two cuts might have been ok...anything more like Trump wants...that would be a long-term concern. Cheers!
  13. I'm not one of the MAGA faithful, but I have no problem with one asshole taking out another asshole! Neither one of these guys has an inner dialogue. They just can't help vomit anything flowing through their head. Both have their beliefs and will do anything to bring them to fruition...doesn't matter who it hurts because the goal at the end of the road is always more important than the roadkill! So if they decide they want to drive their Hummer or Cybertruck over one another, I'm ok with that. Cheers!
  14. A new guest in Hell: https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/01/us/jimmy-swaggart-dies Cheers!
  15. Speaking of tech brothers...I recommend watching "The Mountainhead". First half is absolutely hilarious as Corey Michael Smith, Steve Carrell, Ramy Youseff and Jason Schwartzman play tech bros hanging out for a weekend at Schwartzman's mountain retreat, as the world around them burns and they enjoy the collective power they have to help it do so to achieve their end goals. Second half loses it and goes all American Psycho...still funny, but too over the top. Definitely worth watching just to realize that the current batch of tech bros are the new oligarchs, some of who clearly need to be reined in. Maybe in the real world, Elon is the first! Cheers!
  16. Canadian stock market is closed. But your Canadian broker will execute US trades...they just might not settle them until close tomorrow or Thursday. Cheers!
  17. Agree! I just saw it this weekend. Would have been better as a mini-series, but was still one of the better movies this year. Jude Law was always a pretty good actor, but I have to say, as he's aged, he's become one of the finer actors of his generation. I also recommend "The Return" with Ralph Fiennes as Odysseus. A slow build to a dramatic, brutal finish! He's exceptional...one of the few actors who I would rank up there with Daniel Day Lewis, but never got his due or some of those juicier roles that he deserved. He's even better than he was in Conclave. I'm sure Christopher Nolan's movie on Odysseus will be terrific, but doubt very much that Matt Damon's version of the King will stand up anywhere near Ralph Fiennes version. Like Day-Lewis, this guy can say so much just with his look and voice...something only the great actors really have such control of. Do not watch the trailer...it literally lays out the entire movie in order...fortunately, I didn't see the trailer till after I had seen the movie! Cheers!
  18. TACO...TACO...Trump Organization no longer says Trump phone made in USA! Grifters! Cheers! https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-organization-quietly-rescinds-built-153054474.html
  19. Isn't that Jeff Bezo's yacht! Looks like Loren's been steering again! Cheers!
  20. Of course there is. There's been one for over a decade since this demon seed idea was spawned! Cheers!
  21. You and Reds should go have a beer. Seriously...I'm positive you guys are brothers from another mother. Cubs...how old are you...what's your favorite sport...your favorite car...your favorite tv show? 73Reds...how old are you...what's your favorite sport...your favorite car...your favorite tv show? I bet the answers are nearly the same! Cheers!
  22. SC basically said that Federal and State judges cannot invoke nationwide injunctions...on any matter. So I could understand that for State judges...but Federal judges are handpicked by the President. They rule on Federal matters. This would mean that only the Supreme Court can invoke nationwide injunctions?! Bizarre! Cheers!
  23. Are you two going to make out? The love-in is unbearable! Cheers!
  24. "Peace Through Strength" Cheers! https://ca.news.yahoo.com/karoline-leavitt-gets-instant-fact-090610149.html
  25. https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/25/economy/fannie-and-freddie-crypto-asset-mortgages What causes the next Depression! Cheers!
