Gum on your shoe Bosco. What is the matter? We been knowing.
Ohio’s Tate@OhioTate
I can confirm with 100% certainty that this video is NOT real. Rico Bosco did not throw his shoe at George W. Bush. Rico Bosco threw his shoe down the hotel hallway at 2:00 in the morning because Jack McCarthy noticed it had a white streak on it and tried to take a picture.

HE WAS INVOLVED RICK NOT NECESSARILY THE DRIVER DO NOT ASSUME

The guy is worth a billion $. He can't hire a driver?

@LarkDavis Fantastisc idea, Lark! Could you be in charge of the transition to 1:1? I envision you telling the small business owners that all their notes are being called and telling the farmers their operating lines of credit are shut off.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said in a CNBC interview that crypto exchanges offering yields is unfair!
Banks want competition... but only on a "level playing field."
Cool. Then let's make it fair: Abolish fractional reserves & back deposits 1:1, like stablecoins must under the GENIUS Act.
Your move, banks.

When evaluating bank investments, watch for heavy reliance on brokered deposits.
Unlike core deposits, they're rate-sensitive, less sticky, and can vanish fast if regulators restrict renewals — triggering a serious liquidity crunch.
Red flags to watch:
Brokered deposits >20% of total deposits
Large maturities concentrated within 12 months
Thinning capital ratios
Not all deposit bases are created equal.

@typesfast this is actually a really important distinction he's making between the threat of getting shot at and the threat of sea mines...

Guys, relax, the only risk in transiting the Strait of Hormuz is that Iran will shoot a missile at your ship. Otherwise it's open for transit.
An all-time quote from our Secretary of War.

i just used AI to identify a $100+ million opportunity for Seattle.
currently, to get across the water, you have to drive all the way around it, as cars don't float
this is extremely inefficient. but if you look closely, bainbridge island and seattle aren't actually all that far apart. and if we were to construct some sort of boat that carried cars, it could make the trip much quicker
together with claude code, i planned out this potential route for the boat
does anyone have any contacts in the local government?

@NYCMayor @NYCSanitation “Hey Team, We had record earnings this year and to show our appreciation the board has ordered pizza for the staff. It is in the break room”
English
DSNY has been pulling 12-hour shifts since winter storm Fern. I stopped by during shift change today to say thank you.
They deserve more than just donuts, so please: Next time you see a @NYCSanitation worker, say thank you. They’ve kept this city moving through the worst of it.

@LoganMohtashami Eh, technically no; but your subsequent logic was correct

@fadetheGreek "Could this have been on reason bond yields rallied so much on Friday?"
This was correct

The peak of American house parties was probably 2007–2011. We had texting and Facebook to get everyone there, so plans actually happened. You didn’t need a landline or a 3-day notice to coordinate. But smartphones hadn’t fully taken over yet. Instagram wasn’t documenting every second. There was no TikTok/snapchat, no constant filming, no fear that of acting retarded could destroy your life

@klaw1980 @dirtcheapbanks This has been an issue for decades with an essentially no response at the fed level.
English
@dirtcheapbanks What happens when credit unions become taxed? I believe this will happen if this trend continues. This is a hot topic in the community banking world and banks will push congress and regulators to enact it.
English
I would like to start a credit union and then roll up small banks. The tax exemption is insane and would lead to instant synergies with little operational risk.

@commbankerguy the last year of NIM widening is quickly being eroded. The market won’t allow 4% NIMs anymore. Hell, they won’t let us get away with 3%.
English
A competitor is doing 5.50% on a 5 year term on residential rental loans, running 4% specials for deposit funding. Make it make sense.

This guy is obsessed With micro managing the public schools. Can’t somebody else make this call? Nothing better to do?

I own an HVAC company in Florida and I can confirm the “biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression” is in fact not underway
Jon Brooks@jonbrooks
One of the largest HVAC company reps in my market just texted me this: “The biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression is underway.” Not a hedge fund manager. Not a pundit. An HVAC rep. Meanwhile others think we’re at the start of a new bull run. This feels like 2007 — when nobody agreed on anything.
