I think Buffet is hoarding cash because the market peaked right after the election and has basically plateaued the last four months. Valuations were already high before the election.
You could feel the economy slowing last year and the Fed has had to keep rates up. Doesn't make sense to many unless you understand the economy has been working off the massive monetary injection and fiscal stimulus the last few years.
The affluent have been spending because of the inflationary gains on stock and real estate valuations. That seems to be running its course. I suspect 2025-2026 will be challenging.
I think the backlash he recieved from bending the knee was a part of her calculations. She saw the pressure mounting.
What are you talking about? Trump's been in office for a month.
Reading is your friend, try it, absorb it, and then spout off your nonsense again. I did a better one for you, listen to Minister Joly starting at the 7-minute mark and learn something from someone involved in the talks instead of spouting off your nonsense and bullshit.

Wrong, rubbish, he did what he needed to do and Trump throws out a joke which then ends up becoming a goal because Trumputin is a clown. Again, Trump had absolutely nothing to do with Justin stepping down and Trump at this point doesn't think much of Pee Pee, that is evident.
The reasons Freeland stepped down were she wasn't on board with her demotion and the HST and rebate cheques Justin insisted on. Facts count not spin and phony narratives.
Justin's time had come and the polls were bearing this out, he had no choice but to step down. I wish he had done it sooner to give Carney a longer runway, but it is what it is.
I was referring to if he brings in the tariffs he loves so much it will cause exactly what is in my post. Take a breath Wyatt and read the posts slowly without getting your tighty whities in a knot believing your cult leader is being slagged.
Actually, that's a great thing. Realistically, Canada brings commodities to the table. Five years from now, will Europeans be buying more accessible commodities from Russia and the Ukraine.
Generally, I think high level "trade missions" are for show.
I do agree, it is a great thing. We need to cut ties with the US as much as possible and bring in new friends to trade with while the felon is in charge.
Sorry my friend, but you were speaking in the present tense about inflation.
Some of us had this exact discussion last year. Liberals/progs now seemed to be locked in on inflation because Biden/Harris got burned by it. Ehhh, it's one metric.
The more important metric is where are real wages in November 2028. If all anyone wanted to do was keep prices down, they would let the Chinese flood the market with cheap goods.
I didn't say it was Trump directly. I said his going down to Mara Lago was. There is a distinction here. Trudeau should not have gone down. It made him and Canada look weak. Sending down his Safety Minister to deliver a message would have been fine.
Certainly not a major reason. But it absolutely added a decent sized chunk of straw onto the camel's back.
Justin's Canada Last policies has led us to this existential crisis. If Canada was more self sufficient instead of milking the USAs golden titty then this would be a non-issue
sure squeezy...sure...Justin tried to salvage the relationship with Trump...throwing freeland under the bus...because Trump didn't like her too...
The final weekend signings are the show. The trade missions open negotiations for the usually months long processes most treaties go through. They are also an awareness raising thing.
As an example we send people to Hollywood every year to court the TV and film industry. And over time, we now have a robust year round production schedule.
I understand, but I think TV/film production has a lot more moving parts including negotiating incentives.
You said it has nothing to do with the border when indeed it does.
I don't have the time or the crayons to explain it to you further.
You don't think "incentives" are a major part of trade negotiating? Cripes you do realize we discount oil going into the USA right?
Canada has a monsterous amount of raw materials and the expertise to get them out. Time to go all in With the high paying jobs that go with it. And all the subsidiary industries to supply it.
She's almost as good as Trudeau at avoiding answering questions.Reading is your friend, try it, absorb it, and then spout off your nonsense again. I did a better one for you, listen to Minister Joly starting at the 7-minute mark and learn something from someone involved in the talks instead of spouting off your nonsense and bullshit.

They let the border slip into disarray for a decade and now scrambling to fix it and saying "they are doing good work"? What exactly is the "good work" they are doing if there weren't any issues and now like magic they are stopping smugglers?
Justin is a post nationalist...Canada has never been his priority.
If it had been Canada wouldn't so reliant on American support.
His smoke and mirrors show is over. The question is can Carny cloak himself into conning the Canadian public that he is somewhat different than his predecessor. Because it's obvious to those paying attention he's cut from the same cloth.
Trudeau and his party have done nothing substantial to move oil east and focused more on appeasing lunatic environmentalists. Too little too late.
Even after Biden cancelled the XL pipeline they sat on their hands and did nothing.
Time for some new leadership as if that wasn't obvious.
