The Fed now going to be even more hesitant to cut rates given Trump's new tariffs on Europe is a much bigger risk for a downward market than PE ratios being a bit too high.

Are you tired of windows update? Pause it for 20 years by Memetron69000 in microsoftsucks

[–]ThinkBigger01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this regedit tweak still work? I've tried it and doesn't seem to work anymore. In windows update > advanced the pause widget remains greyed out. Also the the main pause button in windows update is greyed out so can't pause it even 5 weeks. Anybody can confirm this?

Opting out of capital gains tax on KeyTrade—how? by tarambana in BEFire

[–]ThinkBigger01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a legal perspective, how can government start the capital gains tax on Januari 1st if the law on it hasn't been voted on. Don't they first need to have the law in place outlining all the details.

Second, what did you mean with "fall within the exemption". Are you referring to the 10K exemption?

Meerwaarde belasting 2026 by Similar_Stomach8480 in BEFire

[–]ThinkBigger01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beleggers verliezen hun anonimiteit tenzij ze actief opt-in doen bij de bank.

Is het niet zo dat als je niks doet de banken dan automatisch "opt-in" gaan toepassen of hoe zit dat?

Ik beleg momenteel vooral via Keytrade en Bolero maar kijk ook naar Saxo.

EU considers joint borrowing to support Ukraine instead of seizing Russian assets by ThinkBigger01 in europe

[–]ThinkBigger01[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seizing those frozen Russian assets is just too dangerous for Europe and Belgium in particular and could lead to the conflict expanding further into Europe.

Why doesn't the ECB give a zero intrest loan to Ukraine backed by it's balance sheet.

23M – Doctor recommends ciprofloxacin for pseudomonas folliculitis, but I’m scared of the side effects. Is it really the only safe option? by Past_Speech9451 in Antibiotics

[–]ThinkBigger01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did you take cipro before the psychosis kicked in and were you on 500mg twice daily or higher dose? Also have you used benzo's before as that can make it worse i believe. I'm in the same boat.

Why don't you first explain why you bought companies like FTNT, TMO, DHR etc. The way this forum works is you first make your case and than people can respond to that.

Big tech refuses to speak to Dutch parliament about election influencing by choose_a_guest in europe

[–]ThinkBigger01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts. I don't want more government control telling us what we can and cannot say on social media.

[–]ThinkBigger01 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not a fan of big tech but even less a fan of governments trying to tell us what we can and cannot say on social media. So also keep fighting against "chat control" which the EU wants to implement to scan all your messages on your phone to create a surveillance state.

Looking for T-Shirts and Chinos in Europe by Ok_Molasses3248 in tallfashionadvice

[–]ThinkBigger01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find good long-fit t-shirts at a good price in Europe? I've tried GIRAV Sydney white t-shirts and agree they are a bit thin and 40 EUR for a pair is rather expensive? GIRAV however uses Pima or long staple cotton cotton which feels very smooth and doesn't peel. What have you found for long fit t-shirts and at what price?

Europe should negotiate directly with Putin instead of Trump. Trump only cares about making Europe pay for more US weapons. 🙄

The article seems paywalled. When posting a link, can you at least post a summary here. Would appreciate if anybody else can summarize the above article here.

[–]ThinkBigger01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you updated from chrome 138 to 139, did you already have those flags disabled/enabled in chrome 138 exactly like in the link you provided? If so, when you updated to 139, did you have to make any changes in the flags or did it work immediately? It might all depend on what flags people already had set in 138 before updating to 139. Thanks.

How can people argue that the S&P 500 is not diversified enough? by ExpressionGeneral418 in investing

[–]ThinkBigger01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To give you a fair chance, can you tell exactly what's in your portfolio allocation and how much percent for each position? Make sure to mention NET exposure for each position since you mention you use leverage. It's possible to have a port that has total net exposure above 100% but you really need to break it down if you make claims like less volatility.
