NEW GAME: If you could only pick one stock for 2023

All the news from the peanut gallery and where all the nasty trash talk fails miserably.
It can get NSFW-ish here: you have been warned!

I got out of it as well. I could only laugh that it is up 300% ytd. Overall, 2023 has been a good year for me so far in the market.

Warren Buffett Shuns ESG, Invests in Fossil Fuels
https://redstate.com/heartlandinstitute ... ls-n785691

At his recent annual meeting, Buffett made it clear that he thinks oil production remains central to U.S. prosperity. “In the United States, we’re lucky to have the ability to produce the kind of oil we’ve got from shale,” he said. He also declared, “We do not think it’s un-American to be producing oil,” and vowed, “We will make rational decisions” in reference to fossil fuel investment.

Damn, this credit rating drop is going to fuck things up even worse. This is only the 2nd time in history that the credit rating of the USA has been downgraded. Last time was when Obama was fucking up the economy. Now its Biden's turn and the worst is probably yet to come. Next they probably downgrade Freddie Mae and Mac.

Of course it's Obama and Biden's fault. Way to stay on brand and ignore tax cuts that only benefitted the rich and high level corporations. :roll:

I took almost a 10% haircut today. It's just part of the game I guess.

Upstart was down almost 6% today, but still up 427% YTD. SMH

Considering the damage done by the previous office holder, it's been a messy cleanup. I suppose you figure that long term damage can be cleaned up with the wave of a magic wand?

Talk about wilful ignorance.

So, you are blaming trump for Covid and the money the government had to use to prop up the economy during the complete shut down of every business in this country during April and May of 2020. But, then you give a complete pass to the Biden, who went ahead and mailed out another $2 trillion after the virus was on the downhill, the vaccines were rolled out, and the economy had mostly recovered? Get the fuck out with that non sense.

"For individual tax deductions, the TCJA reduced some of the overall tax rates and changed many deductions. First, the TCJA reduced the seven brackets from 10%, 15%, 25%, 28%, 33%, 35%, and 39.6% respectively to 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35%, and 37%. Further, the income levels for the brackets were slightly increased, which generally reduced taxes for individuals. Secondly, the TCJA greatly increased the standard deduction from $6,500 to $12,000 for individuals and from $13,000 to $24,000 for those filing jointly."

Overall it lowered taxes for the middle class. I have a lot of clients who didn't benefit due to the change of the limit of State and Local tax deduction to $10K on Schedule A. Also, employees could no longer claim unreimbursed business expenses on their Schedule A. People who don't itemize generally paid less after the new rules.

Which goes to show you how burned out your brain has become. Its not about sides. Its about truth. The truth is, Trump lowered taxes for the middle class along with every class. Those are just facts and they aren't debatable. And they aren't apparently understandable to someone that only sees it as "sides".

Wow. That is really your default position for everything, isnt it? If it benefitted a whole lot of people from a whole lot of income levels what does it matter?
Youre angry that what youve been told and believed for years isnt actually true so we'll cut you some slack.

Nah, I've had this discussion here numerous times over the past 3 years or so. Many are so hell bent on the the "TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH!!!!!1" schtick that actual numbers didnt matter. Give it time: we'll see another post somewhere where someone will claim "Trump only cut taxes for rich people!"
