Re-Posting Earlier Notes -- October 12, 2023

Locator: 45736B. 

New:

  • NFL TNF: tonight, Broncos at Kansas City.Fanfuel spread: 11.5 points.
  • Hollywood strike back on.

In case you missed these earlier posts.

Social Security, COLA for 2024: 3.2%. Inflation is tamed.

From what I can tell, the deficit has only increased, Fed rates keep going up, and, of course, energy prices are as high as ever.

It's amazing how fast inflation came down once:

  • supply chain issuues began to resolve; and,
  • avian flu was contained.

Inflation: I still maintain that the cause of inflation is when there is a shortage of products wanted / needed by consumers.

Jobless claims: in line (slightly lower than forecast). Link here.

EVs

Price? If you ask, you can’t afford it.

But for the record, “it’s north of $200,000.” Base, starting. 

Top speed? Less than a 2021 Honda Civic — 137 mph vs 130 mph.

By the way, our neighbors — we live in an apartment complex — now own a brand-new Polestar. Somehow they got a 220-volt outlet put in their garage. At least it so appears. They charge their Polestar outside the garage for sone reason.

XOM, what can I say?
