  1. One reason for the “Zero COVID” policy is that China is unable to locally produce its own mRNA vaccine, while refusing to buy vaccines produced outside the PRC. Their own inferior vaccines are estimated to be only 40% “effective,” if the government can be believed. Beijing’s homegrown, much-touted Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine has been rendered “ineffective” as China’s National Health Commission registered a mounting caseload of SRAS-CoV-2 respiratory disease among the “doubly vaxxed” or even boosted Chinese population. Looks as though the “chickens” have come home to roost.

  2.  @JosephMartin7226  “…elect more progressive politicians…” That’s akin to pouring water on a drowning man. You people must be Californians.

  3. Make you a deal, Graham. You buy BTC when it reaches $1 million, and then I’ll buy it back from you when it falls back to $10k. Deal?

  4. Sorry, Graham, but your figures don't give a complete picture of the true condition of the housing market. The U.S. housing shortage has doubled in less than a decade. When you boil it all down, it’s an issue of supply and demand. Even before the pandemic, in 2019, the U.S. was short 3.8 million homes — both places to rent and places to own. That’s according to a new report out from the research group Up for Growth. The shortage is much bigger now than it was in 2012. Double, in fact. And it’s a big part of why home prices and rents are up so much. We’ve known for a long time that there’s not enough housing in certain parts of the country: places like Salt Lake City, Boise, Austin, Detroit and Atlanta. More than half of all metro areas in the country now have a housing shortage, Up for Growth found. Renters especially are getting hammered. In my locale, monthly rents for a 2br, 2ba apartment have risen from an average of $750 in 2019 to $1250 today. And that's without any accompanying increase in salaries or wages. Some places are experiencing an influx of out-of-towners with money to burn, and there's no end in sight. Sure, there may be a "crash" coming for some markets in the future, but for now the sky's the limit. Cheers.

  5. It’s all theater. Look at the DJIA just before (1/10/25) Trump was inaugurated: 41,938. Now look at the DJIA today (3/10/25): 41,912. Notice any change in 2 months? Hardly any at all. So stop being mesmerized by the stock market, get your 🫏 back to work, and let President Trump do the job for he was elected.
