Can we blame the 460-point Dow drop Friday on the end of a political election report?
Because of travel, we will have an exceptionally short report this morning. Assisted by an ill-timed Microsoft update that stole an hour of work time. But, not like we’re the first victims under that bus.
For those wondering, yes Blood Sweat and Tears at the Apache Casino here in Lawton, Oklahoma was a real nice show. I thought the sound was a bit “busy” in the first couple of songs, but as they rolled along, it kept getting better right up to the end after a two-song encore. (I resisted my inclination to offer a lecture on “overlayering” which is when nearly a dozen instruments light off at once.” Better mix (FOH and BOH) is to sub-group and not exceed four “layers” or everything gets cacophonous… Like I said, though, I know when to shut-up.
OK, a mish-mash and then back to bed. Man needs his sleep…

The reason why our economy & stock market is still on top & will remain on top & grow at a consideral pace… The coming $37 trillion dollars tech boom will be greater than the auto production line manufacturing boom (Ford), computer boom (Microsoft), & internet boom (AOL email – You Got Mail). Three areas – 1. Blockchain technology 2. Artificial Intelligence (the chips to power AI are here). 3. Internet of Things. Forget all the political craziness, it is just noise… money rules.
Interesting stats out today…For those if you who like to bash California…
California accounted for nearly three-quarters of US jobs added in February
California accounts for nearly three out of every four nonfarm jobs created in the U.S. during February, according to data released Friday.
Employers in the state add 14,600 nonfarm payroll jobs last month, the California Employment Development Department reported Friday.
Earlier this month, the U.S. government reports nonfarm payrolls in the U.S. rose by just 20,000 jobs.
The AI chip revolution is coming from Boise, ID, but will probably create more jobs in CA.

My Goodness.YOU ARE RIGHT… I think we need to raise taxes.. the big question is WHO…… who pays for the huge percentage of illegal aliens getting federal assistance..
the top ten percent my pay the 97% of taxes.. yet they invest elsewhere to not pay taxes.. with one third of the population forced to seek out federal assistance programs to survive.. this puts the burden of raising the taxes completely on the middle class.. well there isn’t really a middle class anymore.. its just a two party the haves and the have nots.. now with that in mind.. stop paying illegal aliens public assistance.. that would save the taxpayers just in California alone 65 billion dollars a year.. consider the top three states…the average cost in taxes per laborer is around three grand a year.. IF… 65 percent of those funds go for illegal aliens.. the tax savings alone by changing the laws so that only US citizens get the welfare programs would essentially save someplace around two trillion( now I haven’t done the math just a quick glance assessment from what I see..)..a year.. leaving plenty of help for citizens and money left over to rebuild infrastructure that has been put on hold for decades and in dire need of repair and upgrading……

OR.. a person could keep things they way they are.. charge any alien or refugee all the taxes that americans pay .. stop all assistance programs for anyone not an american citizen and charge them a non resident tax… increase the funds keep those in the usa that are here to raise a family..
or send them back.. and cut taxes overall for everyone..

p.s. glad you enjoyed the Indian Casino, nice to have comfortable places to socialize and be entertained out in the sticks, my spouse works in a Michigan casino..
Sure it will and I have a dream too, a dollar and a dream to win the lotto, and that will happen sooner than the $37 trillion dollar bonanza coming down the tube.!!!!
Some people can’t see the forest for the trees. As Ford was told, Cars are a passing fancy, horses are here to stay.
Wow. What a great time we had at the casino..went to the show got to meet and greet the entertainer..except for the four ladies sitting behind us talking and giggling about their butts ..( had to shish them) the show was a knockout.
The room or should I say rooms wow nice..
Wife was playing the slots and I hitting the bar and shooting the shizt with security when he said oh my god.. In walks one of my favorite rock legends from the seventies and the security guys as well.he wasn’t entertaining just passing through. The security was informed to watch out for his arrival…..anyway so I got to meet and shoot the shizt with him to for a little bit .. Amazing he has the same warped sense of humor I have..(we got the band in the one bar to play a polka lol everyone loves a good polka.. I think they did it just because of who he is) Lol.. (He spent way to much on his suit and noose but hey really who cares.. He’s a pretty good ole boy and I enjoyed visiting )
The food was awesome and the young lady that checked us in a real sweetie (its a good thing the wife was there I’m pretty sure I would have tried to get her to help me figure out the curtains)..
I’m hard of hearing so it was just a roar on the floor and we spent way to much.. I learned I detest motorized curtains. I totally plan on going back….
I was impressed with the fountain.. I couldn’t stop looking at it..all around one of the best times I’ve had in a long time.
AI is not about replacing humans with sex robots; it is about making business more efficient & profitable. Follow the money.
Sunday news prediction: just enough to keep the report distraction going for another year. This is all good business, so it will continue. Expect some rock and roll on the market. Question: with all this hoopla, what are they not talking about? Watch the hands, not the moving lips. Words are just beards at this point.
