A lot fewer acronyms would make this a lot more intelligible to those of us who are not deep into the jargon pool. It gets as bad as a group of yachtsman drinking after a sailing race. So please have a bit of mercy on those of us who don't do financials for a living.
I am realizing the government induced inflation is a direct attack on the value of my savings, and I am not happy about that. Yes, most of them are invested in an attempt to outrun the evil inflation monster. But it is clear that inflation is certainly NOT my friend.
Since I have quite a bit in bonds, while this is educational it leaves me wondering what to think. A little bit of knowledge may not only dangerous, it may be worse than that. But thanks for the report and the information. Perhaps all is well in the long run.
Not his election, but rather some of his current actions, which, had he not been elected, would not matter so very much. Spouting off with hostility will, at the very least, reduce public confidence that things are going well, and that, in turn, seems to reduce the total value of my portfolio.
Really, the world would be better off if there was a HUGE tax on all acronyms, such that nobody would use them. And perhaps the worst abusers could be drowned in the huge pot of acronym soup, and then fed to the hungry bears in the market.
This information is just as disturbing as the rest of the news about the actions taken by president #Trump. BUT don't blame me, I did not vote for him.
Unfortunately the ill-thought actions have caused a real decrease in my investments. Why does he need to do these things for his friends? What ever became of fiduciary integrity in the office of the president?????
We must also understand that by importing oil we are conserving our remaining oil reserves. That is the other side that is seldom mentioned. Sort of important for the future, not obvious today, though.
