    Taxes too high? NO!

    Price gouging - YES!

  2. You can read right? Zimbabwe tried to force price controls and they blew up one year later.

    Thats irrelevant to my Statement.

    The reason Prices won't come down after Inflation comes down is due to Price Gouging. Companies taking advantage of the Inflation "crisis" to raise Prices higher than Inflation, and then keeping them high after Inflation comes down.

    Nothing to do with higher Taxes.

    How much $$$ did you lost yesterday?

    Yesterday was an easy day to trade and easy day to earn $$$.

    When the CPI data was released,
    US index futures, Asian European index futures, bonds, eur gbp aud .... were down.
    And those things moved decisively.

    You should have profited from the down movement rather than to vent
    your frustration on the Fed.


    With the profit from trading, you can buy carssss, houseseses,
    yachtsssss and many other things.

  5. What determines the price? You're on a market forum trying to tell us that the government should determine the price?!

    Not sure why you keep posting irrelevant replies to my Statement. Perhaps you have a vested interest in Price Gouging - Business Owner?

    Once again: The reason Prices won't come down after Inflation comes down is due to Price Gouging. Companies taking advantage of the Inflation "crisis" to raise Prices much higher than Inflation, and then keeping them high after Inflation comes down.

    Nothing to do with higher Taxes.

  7. I didn't "lost" any money yesterday. I made money yesterday and today. But regardless my trading doesnt reflect my opinion of the market. It has nothing to do with it.

    A hot CPI number is going to jam the gears of the Fed and any other model thinking rates are going to come down. We're in a worrying situation here and the current policy is on a crash course. I have no frustration with the Fed. What the hell are you talking about?

    Don't buy a car or a house!! And if nobody is buying then the price goes down, and no more inflation and the Fed stops raising the interest rate and everybody is happy! Tada!!

    Great idea, just like telling kids not to eat candies.

  10. “I heard what sounded like a voice from somewhere among the four living creatures. It said, “A liter of wheat will cost you a whole day's wages! Three liters of barley will cost you a day's wages too. But don't ruin the olive oil or the wine.”


    7. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

    8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
