Skier you are completely correct.

Hardup I agree. Have rent flats when working away. I appreciated the service landlords provided.

DT I'm with you. I'm just pointing out that presently the problem in the world is non tariff barriers erected by bureaucrats and far worse than anything the orange one has done. At least with a tariff you can still import if you have a comparative advantage with non tariff barriers you can't sell anything.

DT diplomacy got us enormous tariff barriers called non tariff barriers.

DT dumber and dumber 🤣 you are aware they are trying to wrest trade policy from a bureaucratic elite that deliberately make free trade impossible with stupid rules.

Guns the tariff war has been raging for decades what do you think bureaucratic regulations are actually about. These non tariff barriers are far greater than the ones the bad orange man has temporarily erected.

Fleccy I don't want to move Russia. I just want political leadership in my own country that can defend the realm and police it's own borders. Not much to ask. Presently we can do neither but you think the Ukraine's are more important than our own.

No guns yr talking too much sense. Putin is such a threat the answer is sending money to a vet corrupt country we have no strategic interest in rather than spending said money improving our own armed forces.

Where did I say I like Putin?? His crimes are well documented Im just pointing out we don't even even have a dog in this fight but pouring billions down the drain stupidly. And please don't come back with Russia will roll across Europe if we don't waste billions. Patent bs, any professional soldier will take you an incursion by Putin into NATO would result in his overthrow in a week.

Fleccy I'm well aware the Crimea was pinched 11 years ago. Nothing was done. Not that I care whether the naval base is US or Russian there. Get out there and fight if yr so bothered?

Lti no awareness you've been miss sold. He could not escalated the war in the east, he could not have cut the water supply from Crimea, he could could have accepted a peace in 22 which kept virtually all Ukraine intact. Instead he's carried on the war for his personal gain sending his countrymen to their death. You naively believing he can keep tossing men in the meat grinder over some fantasy about former border displays gross foolishness. He will now be leader of a fat smaller country with far fewer ppl in it.

Lti you've swallowed the Zelensky is Churchill nonsense you can't take yr hand out of his trousers and see he's closer to Hitler than Churchill. History will not judge him well especially when the extent of his corruption is known and the various chances he had to stop the war.

Stp completely on the wrong side of history, we stoked a war that should only have had 10s of thousands of dead and turned it in to over a million. Ironically the west had achieved everything it needed to by April 22 humiliating Putin but some crazed ppl in the USA had a fantasy that they could do regime change in Moscow.

Yeah but look ppl who believe nothing can believe in anything, see COVID and climate nonsense as prime examples in our post religious society. The purpose of religion is not the bearded man in the sky but to stop ppl feeling anxious about death. I'm not sure most intelligent ppl ever believed in it as all obvious bs.

Carter 1.5m Slavs dead. Not to worry once they're in the EU they can fill the place with third world folk. Progress n all.

Forward earnings are forecast around 270 for 2025 that supports a valuation around 5420. Not much upside from here if you look at the numbers.

Skier I think the s and p 500 should be around 5500, the AI froth is being well and truly blown off. Should see more sensible growth to 7000 by early 2028 imho.

Quite right chid. I'm not sheep obviously as he's clearly just discovered climate change is bs and evangelical about it Whereas I know unscientific brain washed ppl could literally be shown absolute profit and still not accept it so I don't bother mentioning it half as much. What is troubling 67 etc is on the right there is a growing Ron Paul movement of like minds.

67 as ever you are totally wrong. I will take sum that you care that I am not sheep? A trillion is fine with since I know I'm not. Put yr money where yr mouth is and I'm happy for admin to prove you wrong as per.
