Headlines -- November 18, 2023

Locator: 46091ECON.

What recession? Barron’s.

Taxes? US oil companies doing just fine, thank you.

Earnings: Thanksgiving Week.

BRK-AAPL: portfolio.

Sam Altman being fired: good news or bad news for NVDA?

Canada! Just when the Panama Canal becomes an issue.

Real estate: $6-million riverfront home in South Dakota immediately raises “value” questions for homes on Flathead Lake, Montana. I’m thinking about homes selling for around $1 million. Are they worth closer to three tines?

Agree 1000%

Last weekend, May and I had a light midafternoon snack at our favorite gastropub (also gastro pub) -- the total bill came to $26 and change. We paid by credit card. We left a $20 tip.
The waiter wanted to know if we were splitting the bill -- half credit and half cash. Nope, the $20 bill was the tip. That's our SOP. We pay for the meal on the credit card and all tips in cash. For all tabs less than $75 we leave $20 regardless of the tab. Above $75, the tip will be more but no set rule. No set rule, because for the two of us we seldom have a tab greater than $75.
