This Changes Nothing

What a dumb reason to sell off. Israel began a ground invasion and Russia probably smoked an airliner full of children. So what, I ask you, outside of the obvious moral quandaries posed there?

How does this effect US business?

If I thought for a minute the US was about to go to war, this might change something. But we’re not. Look at our chief executive – the man ate barbecue and “had a conversation” with Putin. Is that the posturing of a man itching to enter a war (or possessing a spine)?

I say to you, “no”.

These global events are fascinating to watch, and I’ve been having quite the time on Twitter watching Vox make complete asses of themselves.

But I seriously question any lasting impact either of this has on the US stock market.

    Does something really have to change? For the tape to get raped. More sellers than buyers?

    My guess is we bounce around here. But even if we sell off, today was a dumb excuse

    War?….. That might depend on whether one or more of the 23 US citizens on the flight were important or just…..how does 0bama say it…..everyday folks or something like that.

      I concur, clearly Terminator is superior to Robocop. By extension, it’s obvious bee wax candles are the best.

    Mr. Thaler, I am long both HCLP and SLCA and looking to initiate a long position in the energy transport sector. How do you view PAA and ENB in comparison to ETP for a long term play?

      PAA looks similar to ETP – probably interchangeable.

      I’m interested in staying domestic with this, so ENB is out for me.
