    He doesn't even realize how damn stupid he sounds. All he does is brag about himself. The damn strait closed because of him to begin with. Bibi talked the orange buffoon into fighting another of its wars, after buttering him up with affection and endorsing him for the Nobel Peace Prize, and giving him other awards. It's just like back when they talked about Trump Towers and gold on the Gaza strip, all while Trump pretended they weren't committing genocide in Gaza, and killing and mutilating thousands of children and babies.
    Trump and Bibi are both lying soulless human beings.

    Need some more think pieces about Trump's magical political instincts.

    Can't believe the press rehabbed this deranged sack of ****. I mean I can because the press is controlled by rich morons who don't know how stupid they are, but honestly **** anyone who ever countenanced this

    At this point I think that basically translates as, "F You, I'm tired of getting asked these questions"

    His base will believe it. Everybody else already knows him for what he is.

    Can’t remember the last time I heard a president say he LOVES inflation. Any president of any country. Ever.

    Really looking forward to all the Trump sycophants now claim that they also LOVE inflation.

    Trump doesn't give a sh*t. He has ballrooms and arches and fountains and reflecting pools, promenades and golf courses and bombings and wars to spend money on. The rest of the country can kiss his ass.

    Wholesale inflation surges again and keeps the pressure on businesses and the U.S. economy

    Producer price index records biggest back-to-back increases since 2022

    That, and just keep adding asking for hundreds of billions more so Donald and Pete can have all the bombs and missiles they need to blow up any countries they want to make deals with, or forced regime changes around the world, and hide under their big beautiful bunker with rooftop drone port and Golden Dome when the retaliation starts.

    The 26-week (6-month) Treasury bills sold at auction last Monday came with a high rate of 3.69% and an investment rate of 3.812%.
    In the secondary market at around the time of the auction on Monday, the 6-month “constant maturity yield” was 3.805%.


    In the secondary market, the 6-month yield closed on Friday at 3.80%. It has been well above the Effective Federal Funds Rate (EFFR, now at 3.62%, dotted blue line), which the Fed targets with its policy rates. This is an indication that the market has assigned a substantial chance of a rate hike within the 5-month or so predictive window of the 6-month yield.

    ==============================================================================================================



    The 10-year Treasury notes that sold at auction at a yield of 4.538% came with coupon interest of 4.375%, and so they were sold at
    a discounted price of $98.70 for each $100 of securities, for this coupon interest rate to turn into a yield of 4.538% on the purchase price.
    At maturity, holders get paid the full $100.

    The next day in the secondary market, the yield dropped by 10 basis points from the moment of the Iran announcement to Friday
    in overnight trading, to 4.44%. It then bounced off, and closed on Friday at 4.49%, roughly 5 basis points below the auction yield.
    For the week, the yield declined by 6 basis points.

    Crude oil prices are plummeting after Trump reaching a peace deal in Iran. Liberals must very angry tonight!
