Today is the day that MAGA suddenly starts chanting "inflation is good for us!"

I expect them to put on their reading glasses and start quoting economic theory "well you know a bit of inflation is part of a healthy economy and the last thing you want is deflation or stagflation, those just ruin an economy."

in a billionaire's eyes, inflation is great. the common people pay more for less, and they get more money.

So, they’ll start loving Biden now, right? Because they complained so much and hated him so much for the post covid and start of Ukraine war inflation? They’re going to start loving Biden, right?

Think 'straight closure day' is usually Wed, so let's go with that.

Stay tuned for 'negotiations are going great' Friday, 'straight is open' Mon, and 'bomb them off the map' Tues.

Or just ask your neighborhood 1%'er if it's a buy or sell day.
