hm i thought i spotted something in the Euro averages but the FTSE MIB breaks it

dang

(it would've been ... mitigating news. not good.)

Regardless, still looks like the Euro stock markets don't want to be down a full 6%. Multiple averages have been bouncing off that.

But who even fucking knows right now, right? Across East Asia it was "massively down at open, then some bargain-hunting in some markets but not all, but mostly a slow glide down the rest of the day."

Everywhere, governments ARRANGE empty housing units by taxing empty units so little that keeping them empty produces money waiting for "lack of housing" to drive housing prices up.

It is a crime. Cutting taxes on speculators emptying homes is an AREANGED crime. Increasing housing costs is the only product. While making people homeless.

Trump has faced a fierce backlash since he and his wife #Melania launched #memecoins, #tokens with no practical use whose value is entirely based on #speculation, just days before his return to the WH.

Cryptobros creating the same financial bubbles that made them hate the banking system decades ago is pathetic.

[Archive — 2022] Pourquoi tant de NFT ?

C'était la grande mode (heureusement éphémère) des NFT, et le fils de John « imagine no possessions » Lennon tuait définitivement le père en vendant un NFT de sa guitare…

Mème : un homme reste dans un coin pendant une fête. Il dit : « ils ne savent pas que je suis le propriétaire d'un NFT de la guitare de Lennon. D'autres personnages en train de danser disent : « on le sait et on s'en fout » « personne ne t'aime, Billy ».

"This article explores the puzzling ups and downs of Tesla, going through one the most volatile stock market swings of the recent past, under conditions of financialised capitalism. We adopt a conjunctural approach, highlighting both the macro and micro dynamics shaping the firm’s financial market trajectory. Among these, meticulously maintained narratives, boosted by social media, attracted dedicated followers, while the rise of new retail trading platforms and excitement around Tesla’s index inclusion helped in producing its stock ‘mementum’. This volatility was further supported by an exceptionally large volume of financial derivatives trading, paralleling a public battle between short sellers and the company’s defenders. The resulting stock market boom enabled Tesla to stabilise its finances, whilst its ‘mercurial’ CEO Elon Musk negotiated the largest executive compensation package in US corporate history, turning him into the world’s richest individual. In conclusion, we argue that Tesla serves as an emblematic case of an increasingly tech-driven financialised capitalism, which scholars could use as a window to study future conjunctures."

@Scatterseed guess about tariffs against Canada: somewhere I read that RV sales people are urging folks to buy now, before prices go up (most vans and mobile homes are stick-built, with Canadian lumber) #speculation #Tariffs #Canada

#endstage #capitalism = #fascism + #racism is ONLY the #symptom: IT'S NOT LEFT VS RIGHT: IT'S TOP (RICH) VS DOWN (POOR) AND IF THERE ARE ENOUGH (!) STUPID POOR, THE RICH WILL WIN (UNFORTUNATELY)
#DEMOCRACY WITHOUT EDUCATION IS DEADLY DANGEROUS! (SEE BELOW VIDEO)

REALIZE THIS: #BANKS PRINT #MONEY "#QUANTITATIVEEASING" AND BUY REAL THINGS = #INFLATION

at the end of the day Jill + Joe can not afford a home #realestate #speculation #madness

after DECADES of #corruption (revolving door #private and #government in #USA but also #EU #Germany) people feel (rightfully) exploited and are looking for answers (the easy answers are usually NOT the right answers X-D)

"what? i am poor because private banks robbed my purchasing power?" is way more complicated than "foreigners out" and let's switch on #nuclearpower and #bigoil again X-D
