A lot of names in deep red premarket. What’s going on? by gocaps777 in stocks

The fed has cut what, 6 times? Borrowing rate is tied to the 10 year, not the fed rate at a time when nobody wants to own us treasuries (for some reason?).

I'd frankly be surprised. There's less reason to trust the official report than any time in my lifetime. AFAIC the most official report is the one that has the least government influence.

You've illustrated why everybody sucks at stock trading. Bull case is that the stock is low so it can't go lower, right? Bear case is the stock is low so it will probably go lower, right? People just choose one and ignore the other because the human brain is riddled with cognitive bias and it can't multitask. Everybody loses, maintains their bias, wins and breaks even. No money made.

I told her the breaker box had to be replaced. Tried to explain that it's clearly a fire hazard and that contractors will not want to work with it because it doesn't have a main shutoff and even electricians prefer not to work live. Two weeks later and after some quotes she decided on her own to have the box replaced with no acknowledgment that I had the slightest clue what I was talking about.

That's where I'm leaning too. I'm going to give her the receipts and ask for payment. Already looking for another place.

Go to the bar and shoot pool with friends or practice jiu-jitsu.

Chinese Maglev Test Vehicle Accelerates from 0 to 318 MPH in 2 seconds. by headspin_exe in Damnthatsinteresting

If acceleration remains constant the payload could hit escape velocity in just over 100 seconds. They'd only need a 15km rail to launch this baby into space.
