Charles Marohn wrote a post in response to my previous posts on his filtering comments. He does a good job of concisely conveying the conventional approach to 2008 and the current housing situation, which makes the post useful for more discussion. kevinerdmann.substack.com/p/more-on-fi...

David Eby says he hasn’t pivoted to populism and fighting the rich in this election campaign. He’s just “standing up” for voters. But however he wants to frame it, his re-election bid has shifted to a clear class based message. Here’s my column after three days on the road with him.

Today I saw the new 4 hour documentary Musk, directed by Alex Gibney. There were too many times to count that a sold out theater burst out laughing at Elon Musk, something he said or did, even sometimes just how he looked. I believe that is his worst nightmare come to life.

I don't often praise big bond traders but this retort to Bessent is priceless: “He is just doing the president’s bidding,” Mr. Sherman said. “It’s falsehoods where you can tell he knows better. It starts to feel like you are being lied to everywhere.”

What’s Behind Bessent’s Boasts About the U.S. Bond Market
By one measure, U.S. government bond markets have posted negative returns, but markets in others countries have experienced steeper losses.

Did you know that the best part of Stop Making Sense, a track from a collaboration between Byrne and Twyla Tharp into an afrobeat adaptation of a Dadaist poem, isn’t even in the movie? They had to cut it because David playing Little Drummer Boy during the drum break would have killed people.

Find it hard to understand Trump's logic. Ofc there may be none at all. First, he often describes cutting off trade as a good thing, because he thinks trade deficits are akin to losing money. So he's saying 'cut rates or I will do this good thing'....

BIG tax change announced today. A “productivity mega deduction” broadens how much is eligible for immediate expensing. That cuts the effective tax on new investment in half. More to do, but this is big. Details: www.canada.ca/en/departme... #cdnecon
