    BlackRock Becomes a Power Player in Global Shipping—With Help From Trump

    https://www.wsj.com/finance/blackrock-panama-canal-deal-trump-a0af7b7d

    Larry Fink’s clout is on display with $23 billion deal for ports in Panama and beyond

    World leaders rolled their eyes when President Trump kicked off his second term by threatening to take back the Panama Canal. Yet within weeks a massive sale put the waterway’s biggest ports and dozens of others in American hands—reshaping the global shipping business.

    larry is a globalist, ck hutchison is technically a british outfit located in former colony, absolutely nothing to do with the mainland chinese.

    this deal larry and li are on the same side to avoid maga took over. and guess what, li’s people are in place to run the ports regardless, it is like sale and leaseback trade.
     

  5. On another note, she is AMAZING!!!

    I truly had NO IDEA, how all these countries use tariffs, left and right. At minute 16 in the video, she beats the living shit out of CNBC...



    And right after this, this poor imbecile is instructed to write this article.

    Bringing a one sided chart doesn’t mean she destroyed CNBC, only that she was prepared. White House press briefings under Trump have been such a joke that a prepared one seems out of this world.

    the markets don’t like tarrifs and all the CEO’s of American manufacturers don’t like tarrifs. As a trader you know the market represents the present value of future expectations. So maybe this kid understands the market better than you. I need to buy two cars. I need to get them before Lexus raises the price by 20k because Cadillac raises the price on Escalades thanks to tarrifs on Mexico.

  7. Hello Mark,

    @Handle123 , @Sprout , @Businessman , @S2007S , whoever else may know.

    Did you ever work with these guys below when you work on the trading floor years ago?

    Michael Milken, Ivan Boesky, Martin Siegel, and Dennis Levine.

    I would have love to work with these awesome traders.

  8. I simply had no clue that tariffs were so prevalent. If you make cheese in America, and want to sell it in Canada, it's a 300% Tariff. If you are Canadian, and you want to buy a Chinese EV, it's a 100% Tariff. I ride UBER :)

    As for "future expectations", things are murky. However, she is giving me MARIA BARTIROMO vibes, late 90s. Which is pretty cool...

    PS. The kid does not know shit. He is probably a permanent Member of "Jim Cramer's Investment Club", along with this other loser clown (who would not last TWO days on a trading desk):

  9. That's very 80's. I read "Den of Thieves":
    https://a.co/d/apUTXwG

    Which accounts the whole mess. Don't bother reading it. Instead, read this. Thorp is truly incredible. He was in the Milken mess, spent $30M in legal fees, won, fucked Guliani, and retired, closing his fund, and investing the proceeds in Berkshire Hathaway stock in 1990. This is worth a read...
