Several Big Stories Breaking, About To Break, Or Scheduled To Break -- September 20, 2022

Ukraine: it looks like Putin is ready to "go nuclear." 

  • No, not with nukes but putting his entire country on warfooting; mobilizing entire country; all men aged 18 to 60 will be subject to recall; none allowed to leave Russia or Russian-held territory. Putin's speech scheduled for today, postponed until tomorrow. 
  • Putin to speak Wednesday.
  • Next up: 
    • the UN: worthless
    • the EU: will be interesting
    • the US: the big question -- who is writing the speech that Joe Biden will give?
  • If you thought the market was ugly today, just wait until tomorrow.

Stagflation: Mohamed El-Erian, a regular feature on CNBC says "stagflation" is coming. Oh, no!

Mohamed must be reading the blog -- what does he recommend? Sell everything? Nope, buy, buy, buy. But be laser-focused. 

ND Legacy Fund: should report September, 2022, deposits this week.

Hurricane season: update.

Beer: shortage looming.

  • for the archives, here in north Texas:
    • generally, price of a six-pack is $10.99; but often seen $11.99 and $9.99 is common
    • I have no problem finding my favorite IPAs selling for $8.99
    • but if someone were to ask what beer costs in north Texas, I would probably have to say: $10.99
    • so, we will check in on the price of beer one month from now (if I remember)

Sort of like all those global warming stories from 1994: link here.

Why USAF loadmasters earn their pay: link here.

I'll get to these stories and more later this evening but right now spending some time with Sophia.
