Thanks Julie and Team. A little early today? $ DDOG $FSLY
:14 Amazook's new partner in transport...
2:50 Why would the guy thank the wokester staff that cost him his job and tarnished the reputation of the firm? Seems a bit obvious.
4:00 $DDOG
Did the way power production is created and distributed just invert? Same result, but much more palatable framing for consumers who take newz at face value? Perhaps I misunderstood?
too many ads
It's great to have Julie back!
I ponder that AZO will continue to have a tougher time in the future with the nations fleet aging which should be a tailwind, but OEM's with new inventory continue to infringe on right to repair by varying nefarious methods.
Thanks Julie and team. Merry Thanksgiving!
This one sounded oddly familiar. Now I know why, I heard it yesterday too!
Interesting that SPY is more closely correlated to NVDA than it is to RSP, its own equal weighted index. Feels it's been this way for quite a while now. NVDA needs to make earnings this week AND impress with guidance to keep the gravy train rolling up and right for maybe another market earnings cycle?
@1:50 "directly to the people, bypassing big, bad, and money sucking companies". So much for that financial subsector, but this would be much better for society in the long term.Howabout a non-center-left or non-left approach that eliminates the leaky bucket altogether and vanquishes the socialistic crony-capitalist system that was built up 100 yrs. ago and replace it with competition driven market incentives, and backstop it with what actual insurance was meant for, catastrophes not maintenance
China has added massive amounts of energy to power their AI data centers via cheap reliable coal.
Gonna be an ugly day?
Absent from fed chair list is #JudyShelton. Guess we haven't reached the point of desiring a solid reliable currency yet? Can't believe the Madoff thing is still being unraveled. Everyone involved at these levels currently under litigation and going at the deep pockets, should've been sophisticated enough to perform their own independent verification and due diligence beyond the so often employed and much more simplistic method of "trust me bro", that enables these schemes to advance.
Is the US under the current 1990's style center left leadership starting to look a bit like China with all of their SOE's?
@2:55 they have an odd way of tracking this. We cancelled because #ABC backed down on the feces flinging kimmel, and reinstalled the filthy overflowing colostomy bag into our dwelling. Oh well, the propagandists are going to spin it how it can be best percieved by the general population to benefit their comrades.
Leave it to the center left US chamber of commerce to want to cheap out even on their memberships US workforce replacement H-1B's. No worker can be cheap enough for these guys. I'm all for the tariffs on cheap import labor.
@2:50 not the fault of UPS that the shipper failed to adequately complete a legal transaction. Unless of course this crap has been just setting on their docks forever. I'm still waiting for some parts that they "lost" over a decade ago, causing a major setback and forcing a replacement with substandard components. Good news is the parts should be coming along at anytime now.
@2:10 a "smart" EV that that crashes, catches fire, and refuses to open the door to let the rider escape? What? Was this a fiction horror show? Good thing, excluding the victim, that it was just a major Chinese branded smart device posing as a transportation tool and not readily available to all world markets yet. As we become weaker witted and rely ever more on our quite helpful and dependable "smart" gadget overlords to think and do, "they" seem quite willing to hasten our demise.
