Trump Media

The stock at $29.16 is only $11.81 from its pre-purchase of Truth Social.   So far aside from the $300 million dollar loss the company has not lost much.  Investors have not gained a great deal, although five months ago the value was in the hands of one group of investors and now it's in the hands of Donald Trump.   IN the last six the SAPAC has transferred about $3  billion to Donald Trump who will have the right to start selling his shares this Friday, six months after the IPO.   All the locked investors will be allowed to slowly sell their shares.  THAT ALONE will ensure that the price remains under pressure, as of today only about 45 million shares are tradable, as of Friday nearly 100 million will be, and five weeks later nearly all the shares will be tradable. 

If you follow charts, then assume that $17.24 is the floor (the value of the assets of the company pre dilution), but of course, many many new shares were issued (about 125 million in March), all going to Donald Trump.  

I would say that it's time to get out of the shares...but honestly buying that stock shows an amazing level of delusion on the part of the investment community.  It is more likely that the share will trade at $1.00 than at $100.00.   Still, you take your money and you make your bets...

what people get wrong about tariffs

 The issue is simple. What percentage of the economy is dependent on tariff goods? The truth, is that the US economy is far more closed than people understand. People genuinely believe that all manufacturing has ceased to exist in the United States all given to China on the altar of woke policy the truth can be further from That statement. Only about 15% of US GDP is related to foreign trade. Of that amount, slightly more than half is from Canada in Mexico. And half of that is energy. What that means, is that about 7% of US GDP is tariff dependent. The proof in the pudding, is how little money tariff generates. People think that 30 or 50 billion is a lot it’s not in an economy that has $3 trillion. The impact on the US economy will be less visible but not absent. Inflation hasn’t occurred yet first because tests have hardly started to bite, but more importantly it’s such a small percent of the economy. Now certain things are critical. The rare earth metals from China were critical....

Trump and Venezuela...

The US now owns Venezuela…and not in a good way.  America is not known for its nation building skills, and yet it now owns the disaster that is Venezuela.   Starvation and exodus are the natural progression.   In addition it will become a haven for narco-terrorists, more so than it already was. I am sure that Trump and his friends really thought that little attack very well…I guess that he will now attack Iran now.

Demographics

 I am preparing a kind of family tree for our children so that they know where they came from.  In my family I am the only survivor, although my brother and sister died recently they were both in their seventies (a story I told already).    It was a fun process, but it provided more than that.  First, I married relatively young I was 26 when I married and nearly 30 when our first child was born.   I was looking at my ancestors.  On my mother's side, she had 6 siblings, Four died before the age of 30, two in war, and two from illnesses.  Only she and a single sister survived.   The two boys had a child each but they died in WWII, and the other sister died as an infant.   what is interesting is that every one of my mother's siblings had children in their early 20s.   I know that my mom was hardly 20 when my brother was born.    What is remarkable is that among our friends, we are the only ones to have fou...
