    LOL I never bought into the news media pretending one guy fixes or goofs most of it up .
    But for ''victims'' pretending that , sure makes it simple LOL:D:D
    Even with a market mover like Fed head J Powell;
    US markets up trended 100 years before FED ever got involved.
    I actually thought the 2 USa debt downgrades would have goofed up the bond market more than it did, but they must look @ US debts market competition ??
    Historically rate cuts are good for stocks/ETFs.
    One monkey dont stop no show; nor does a group of monkeys throwing darts @ WSJ stop a show.
    Not an insult, not a victim or stock seasonal timing remark.
    Like Dallas Fed Rich Fisher noted ,its like shooting ducks, have to get ahead of them-great quote:caution::caution:

    Spaghetti price for 500g has more than doubled: from €0.34 to €0.79, but peak was even higher at €0.99. This is the cheapest one can get.
    The cheapest spaghetti price is my private indicator for inflation :)
    Ie. the real inflation is more than 100% between "Before Corona Epoch (BCE)" and "After Corona Epoch (ACE)" !!! :wtf: :D

    Btw, SPX just hit 5,000 :) IMO b/c of inflation, not b/c of value

    We in LA don't buy our spaghetti with funny money (€), we purchase it with $. Last year two dozen large AA eggs at Costco was $7.99. Recently it was for $3.99.

    But I agree, package food prices once up seldom come down.

    I think a paradigm shift is taking place: farmers everywhere are becoming one of the richest groups in the country.

    WELL they get thier food cheap also:D:D
    WMT has brown eggs @ $2.06 plus tax; our state has farm stand eggs paying no sales tax, ag help , but they need it , profit margin on eggs is so slim.
    White , green + blue eggs tend to sell for more;
    Organic eggs = premium priced .
    Canadian quarter usually works as well as US quarter, except in some vending/KO machines LOL
