These are not liberals; these are not progressives; they are certainly not patriots. These are anarchists who want the US government to fail, completely. This, of course, includes Schumer who still voted to keep the government shut down. He hates the military, as far as I can tell, but loves illegal immigrants.

Tea leaves: for investors, this next week could be an incredible week.
- rare earth metals:
- shutdown: we've reached a tipping point. It's only a matter nor for the opposition to figure out how to end this shutdown without losing face. The "Fetterman model" is probably the key. [Five minutes after posting that -- US Senate -- may have reached an agreement to end government shutdown.]

Financial Independence
This idea for this blog began here: link here.
Reminder: I hate the word "retirement." I prefer "financial independence," which I define as enough "mailbox money" to do what you want to do. "Mailbox money" includes quarterly statements from investment vehicles.
The article linked above included some jargon, which led me to this:
Briefly:
- I am inappropriately exuberant about the Bakken and I am often well out front of my headlights. I am often appropriately accused of hyperbole when it comes to the Bakken.
- I am inappropriately exuberant about the US economy and the US market.
- I am also inappropriately exuberant about all things Apple.
- See disclaimer. This is not an investment site.

- If anything on any of my posts is important to you, go to the source. If/when I find typographical / content errors, I will correct them.
- Many posts are not proofread for several days after they've been posted.
- Reminder: I am inappropriately exuberant about the Bakken, US economy, and the US market.
- I am also inappropriately exuberant about all things Apple.
- And now, Nvidia, also. I am also inappropriately exuberant about all things Nvidia. Nvidia is a metonym for AI and/or the sixth industrial revolution.
- I've now added Broadcom to the disclaimer. I am also inappropriately exuberant about all things Broadcom.
- And Oracle.
