@Gubloinvestor China wants Taiwan to join willingly. It’s the way Chinese operate.

@HedgeFundFomo I’m waiting for what Mike Alfred’s caller says. Then I’ll do the opposite.

@iranin_arabic_ They’re clear and honest and committed that they are a satellite state of Israel.

@World_Affairs11 The strait is open, zionists are just afraid of passing through.

@Yiannisstam2 What does it matter what others think?
To each their own geographies and circumstances.

BREAKING: While Trump posted “48 hours before all Hell will reign down,” the European leader closest to him was in Doha telling Italian national television: “This time, we do not agree.” Giorgia Meloni became the first EU, NATO, G7, and G20 leader to set foot in the Gulf since the war began on February 28. She flew into countries under active bombardment to negotiate gas contracts. The UAE engaged 23 ballistic missiles and 56 Iranian drones on the same day she was scheduled to arrive there. She came anyway. She came for gas.
Italy gets 10 percent of its total gas consumption from Qatari LNG. Qatar’s Ras Laffan export facility was hit by Iranian missiles, losing 17 percent of its capacity. QatarEnergy declared force majeure on Italian cargoes, cancelling five shipments. Meloni sat in Lusail Palace with the Amir and pledged that Italy would contribute to restoring Qatari energy infrastructure damaged by Iranian bombing. She reaffirmed the necessity of reopening the Strait of Hormuz. She did not offer a single warplane to help reopen it. Italy denied the US use of Sigonella airbase for offensive operations. Meloni’s government called the strikes a “dangerous trend outside international law.” And then she flew to the Gulf to negotiate the supply of the molecule that cannot flow because the strait she will not help open remains closed.
The Bank of Italy lowered GDP growth forecasts for 2026 and 2027, citing the war. Italy breached the EU’s deficit ceiling last year. Italian families are paying for a war Italy refused to join, in fuel prices set by a strait Italy will not help reopen, for gas produced by allies Italy supports diplomatically but not militarily.
Meloni told RAI: “I continue to believe that, geopolitically, Europe has little to gain from a divergence with the United States, but our duty is, first and foremost, to defend our national interests, and when we disagree, we must say so.” That sentence was delivered from the Gulf, to Italian cameras, about an American war, by the leader Trump once called “fantastic” and treated as his closest European ally. The friendship is not over. But the sentence “this time, we do not agree” is the most significant public break between a European leader and the American president since the war began. It came not from Macron, who blocked the UN resolution. Not from Starmer, who is hosting the Hormuz summit from London. It came from Meloni, the one Trump expected to stand with him.
The day before Meloni arrived in Doha, eight Iranians were killed when the B1 bridge between Tehran and Karaj was struck. They had gathered underneath the unfinished structure to celebrate Sizdah Bedar, the Iranian holiday known as Nature Day. They were picnicking. The bridge collapsed on them. Over 3,000 people have died across the Middle East since February 28. The strait is closed. The gas is trapped. The ally who was supposed to help is negotiating contracts instead. And the leader who promised all Hell is posting countdowns while his closest European friend tells the camera, on the record, in the Gulf, that she disagrees.
The alliance did not fracture over ideology. It fractured over a molecule that cannot pass through a 34-kilometre strait. Meloni needs the gas. She will not fight for the strait. And the distance between those two positions is the distance between a partnership and a transaction.

I started my first job at a SUBWAY Restaurant.
Three months later, I asked my boss if I could perform his tasks, like inventory, scheduling, bank deposits, training, etc.
Owner: Yes, but I can't give you a raise right now.
Me: I don't need a raise; I love working here.
Six months later, I was better than my boss.
It was his $350,000 restaurant, but it was my machine to learn for free and still get paid for it.
If I had screwed up during my time there, the worst that would have happened is that I would have lost that job.
Tons to gain and nothing to lose.
All I did was show my eagerness to learn and take responsibility.
1.5 years later, I quit and bought my own Subway.
This is how you grow; this is how you break the cage of financial freedom."

@Gubloinvestor 100%
I worked for free at brokerage firms and money managers throughout the 90s. I just wanted to learn and in 2014 I retired.

@mamboitaliano__ She went to Saudi. That’s hardly in the line of war.

@amitisinvesting Army chief fired is 💯 ground invasion coming. If the war was over he’d be getting a medal.
Trump still thinks it’ll be a short war. He needs the strait to open otherwise the petrodollar is gone and US sanctioning strength is reduced. So he also needs the clarity act as a hedge.
English

so do we think we’ve bottomed or no
all the weekend headlines just feel like escalation
but monday morning, could easily see Trump just retract or delay his warnings again
oil still ridiculously high…earnings season with bad guidance because of uncertainty wouldn’t be the best…
maybe an April 9th 2.0 scenario?
just so confusing to try to analyze the market not on fundamentals but on new headlines daily…
