Foreign investors are piling into US equities at a record pace: Cumulative year-to-date inflows from global investment funds into US equities are up to ~2.5% of their total assets under management. This percentage has more than DOUBLED since May alone. This is also significantly above the 2002-2025 average of -0.3% in outflows for this point in the year. By comparison, excluding the top 10% with the largest inflows and the bottom 10% with the largest outflows of the 2002-2025 period, global fund inflows averaged just ~1.5% by this point in the year. The YTD pace has already exceeded the full-year total recorded in the middle 50% of years since 2002. Current demand for US equities is unprecedented.

The biggest flaw in socialism is the lack of incentives.
If the rewards for excellence and mediocrity become similar, excellence becomes rarer.
A system that weakens incentives eventually weakens innovation, progress and growth. Good intentions don’t override human behavior.
Michael A. Arouet@MichaelAArouet
The main reason socialism has always failed and caused unimaginable misery is that its goal of equality of outcome is incompatible with the incentives needed for a society to prosper. This helps explain why: 1. A professor tested socialism in a classroom. 2. He averaged everyone's test scores so all students received the same grade. 3. Hardworking students stopped studying because their effort no longer earned top marks. 4. Low-performing students stopped studying, knowing they would pass anyway. 5. Overall grades quickly fell to an "F". Socialism has never worked, and it never will. Why is this so difficult for the left to understand?

DO YOU HAVE a PLAN “B”? We are in BIGGEST BUBBLE in world history. Bubbles in stocks, real estate, commodities & oil. FUTURE? Possible DEPRESSION with HYPER-INFLATION. My PLAN B: be an entrepreneur, stay out of stock market, create own assets, use debt as $, save G,S, BC, guns.

May 1950: Hyperinflation or Depression?
English
Yes. 👇
Toward the close of 1777, John Adams, writing in Braintree to Gerry said, "I find the same perplexities here that we felt at Yorktown, a general inclination among the people to barter, and as general an aversion to dealing in paper money of any denomination;
The moneyed men, I am informed, generally decline receiving paper for their debts; many refuse; and it is said all will, very soon. There is a whispering about among the richer sort that an act is necessary for allowing a depreciation or an appreciation, as the case may be, upon specialties; and the poorer sort look cunning, and give hints that the rich are aiming at a depreciation.”
Bolles, Albert S. The Financial History of the United States: From 1774 to 1789, Embracing the Period of the American Revolution. 4th ed., D. Appleton and Company, 1896.

Inflation is when someone is repeatedly stabbing you.
Disinflation is when they stab you a bit less frequently.
Stable Prices is when they stop stabbing.
Deflation is when rich people get stabbed.

@HarryParker_esq @samhusseini Sorry for the confusion, but I'm referring to the social safety net in general. It catches more people than it should.
English
@FedGovernor @samhusseini Productive for whom? If you are referring to the growing number of retired people over 65 years in age, many are still productive according to their ability and needs. However, as one, I can assure you that Soc Sec does little more than cover a small % of minimum costs.

@HarryParker_esq @samhusseini What is the income tax rate in Belgium?
English
@FedGovernor @samhusseini If you and I can consider state-owned and state-operated universal single-payer healthcare as 'socialist', large portions of the planet have poor among their populations benefiting from that.
English
@FedGovernor @samhusseini Thanks for engaging in public discourse. I gotta run out for awhile. Laters.
English
No question about it, if you are referring to retirees and people in need. However, it has also kept many productive members of the community out of the labor force. (I hope I'm not mixing things up)
If I remember correctly, labor force participation is at, or close to, an all-time low.
By the way, I grew up in a socialist country. So did my parents and grandparents.
English
@FedGovernor Social Security I think has kept lots of people out of poverty.

I think your proposal is fair, but I cannot recall an instance in which the military spending of the world's hegemon of the day was not directed mainly toward military expenditures and covert operations.
By definition, the world's hegemon is almost always at war.
So please correct me if I'm wrong.
No aspersion at all. I think it's a fair comparison, since we are subjected to unrelenting propaganda 24/7.
English
@FedGovernor @samhusseini Yes. With more precision than casting aspersions on poster art.
English
@mehibilet @samhusseini Are you asking what I think is wrong with the idea of diverting funds from the military/industrial sector to other public enterprises?
English
@FedGovernor @samhusseini Very good! Here's a candy for a great answer.
Now tell me what's wrong with the idea other than the cold war programming in your mind.
English
@mehibilet @samhusseini The style of this poster is eerily similar to that of the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany.
Maybe it's just me.

@samhusseini You know—like WPA except we're training information workers instead of landscaping.
