Sure, aluminum tariffs will be bad for America, but at least they'll be good for the aluminum industry, right? Right?!? seekingalpha.com/news/4413299...

Pro: Musk is good at the "vision thing" and getting people excited about it. Con: Musk overpromises/underdelivers. He's not interested in details or steady improvement. He disregards process. He likes being loved by 10-20% and hated by most. (These last two matter more when it's not his company).

If Mitch Daniels was running DOGE, they'd have already began implementing GAO recs to fix the $191 billion in payment errors, consolidating duplicative programs, and auditing 1000s of programs for efficiencies - legally, competently, and with minimal disruption. That's real savings.

The stock market had an ugly week. The S&P 500 hit a record Wed., but was down to its 50-day by Friday. The Nasdaq and Dow are clearly below their 50-day lines, while the Russell 2000 closed below its 200-day for the first time since late 2023. 1/ www.investors.com/market-trend...

It's strange to hear an intellectual case for steel tariffs - as opposed to a populist stump speech - because it's so obviously wrong, as @scottlincicome.bsky.social makes clear.

It's an Eminem market - calm on the surface - but nervous underneath. The major indexes dipped Thu., off lows with the S&P 500 right at highs. But growth sold off again, esp. high P-E stocks. Investors should be cautious. MercadoLibre surged late. Booking rose. www.investors.com/market-trend...

Futures rose slightly with Coinbase, Twilio, Airbnb and Roku key earnings movers. Earlier, stocks rallied with the S&P 500 almost at highs and key growth funds doing so. Why? The PPI inflation report and new Trump tariffs weren't as scary as the headline. www.investors.com/market-trend...

The major indexes had a narrowly mixed session, still trading within Friday's range. It's a choppy market, though the range seems to be tightening somewhat. The CPI inflation report could be a catalyst - or not. 1/ www.investors.com/market-trend...

www.investors.com/news/tesla-v... Even I didn't have this on my bingo card. An EV giant broke out on self-driving hopes last week - and it wasn't Tesla. BYD skyrocketed ahead of Monday's smart-car event, where it's expected to roll out an advanced driver-assist system to cheap EVs.
