@neoavatara If Iran ends up with some control over Hormuz, this would be substantially worse.
Also, even with the Obama deal, the potential for U.S. military action was always there.
Now? Hard to believe the U.S. would go after Iran in the future, esp. with Gulf allies soured.

This sounds like the Obama nuke deal.
Good job, everyone. We:
- Increased inflation
- Increased energy prices
- Spent billions, and lost American lives
And we got... The Obama deal.
GREAT SUCCESS!

Lying about public infrastructure costs on an order of magnitude is just standard operating practice. 1/

COLUMN: Wall Street is full of hope, leaning on a tweaked version of Stein’s Law:
“The Strait of Hormuz cannot be closed forever because it will cause too much economic damage. Therefore, it will reopen.”
But what if it didn’t reopen?

@the_munkie Elizabeth Warren portrays herself - and is often portrayed - as an intellectual with high-level policy thinking in a grubby political world. So it's especially important to point out her nonsense.

@IBD_ECarson I’ll end by saying that I think you are one of the truly good guys, so this is not a knock on you. There’s room in a healthy democracy to debate these issues. But in today’s environment if you are going to sling arrows, EW should not be your first target.

Malls were a product of their time. If you wanted to shop and have some variety - mall. If you wanted to hang out/go to a movie as a teen - mall. Parents would take kids to the mall as an outing for something to do.
Ecommerce, social media, streaming etc. ended that. 1/2

How private equity gutted local malls: Joann Fabrics, Red Lobster, Claire's, and more.

@scottlincicome I wonder how much of the expensive watch decline is simply a decline in "dumb" watches period. Who really needs a watch (even a fancy one) just to tell the time when you're carrying around a smartphone?
Much like print newspaper readers, watch-wearing generations are aging out.

@StatisticUrban Even in China, food-delivery firms are losing a lot of money keeping prices low in a brutal fight for market share.
Ofc., China labor costs aren't as cheap as they once were, but stilll.

@scottlincicome Nice to know that these corporate giants see tariff refunds as a better deal than Trump's vague crony capitalism comment/threat.
English

"Trump said he’d ‘remember’ companies that didn’t apply for tariff refunds. Many of them are anyway"

"Among the major U.S. corporations that have tried to get the money they paid in duties back are Walmart, Apple, Nike, Home Depot, General Motors, FedEx and Costco"

You need a lot of faith to believe Hollywood can resurrect old IP like this.

@NatPurser My eleven year-old today gave me the question every parent dreads: “Dad, what is socialism exactly?”

@neoavatara Nuking the filibuster 6 months before likely losing at least partial control of Congress is like being a mile or two away during 50s-era nuclear tests. It's not going to end well for you...

This idea completely died the moment Trump endorsed Paxton over Cornyn.
