LOOK AT ME DADDY!
IM FIGHTING INFLATION!
IM MAINTAINING PRICE STABILITY DADDY!

>shills always come to /smg/ to beg people not to sell as soon as the market gets into trouble
Reminder that these retards coming here again last night was your sell signal.

why did you bake?

i bought calls

how is high inflation not bullish? A dollar going to shit means companies with incomes and assets go up.

>>58359408
Hot, keep going! I’m almost their.

>>58359054

Brendan Frasier working at the NYSE. A top or bottom signal?

lol holy shit it's so over for these dumbasses

>>58359450
Insane how he's now reposting the image that compiles all his screenshots to show how he actually did rage quit at the bottom in October

I owe around $1.5k in taxes on dividends. The problem is I didn't work last year or have any income to pay this. So what do I do, liquidate enough to pay for this?

>>58359450
You posted here last night begging people not to sell, which tipped me off to buy puts right before the market started to crash today. Do you have any other ticker recommendations for me not to buy puts on?

>>58359475
Those are your posts begging people not to sell. What kind of retarded damage control is this?

>>58359485
You bought puts in pre-market, did ya?

>>58359427
If anon is buying when he shits on bears it looks like he's doing pretty well.

>>58359498
Yup I'm up 114% over the last year

I AM OFF MY ZOLOFT AND READY FOR THE GREAT DEPRESSION YEE HAW

is the gay apocalypse bullish or bearish?

>>58359485
Wasn’t me but any man making gains I support, regardless of the method. Good for you. Too bad you schizo rant instead of helping the rest of us make money you crazy selfish cunt.

>>58359520
He didn't make any gains you retard. You can't "buy puts" outside market hours.

>>58359525
>he doesn't have access to the overnight options market

>>58359483
I dunno, I'm not a tax expert, nor do I believe in taxation. If you didn't earn enough to be required to file, you don't file, I think. There's a minimum cutoff for earnings per year.

>>58359497
I put in a limit order my dude.

>>58359498
That poster only shows up to do damage control when the market is in trouble. He showed again last night totally unprompted, except this time *before* the market took a massive shit because of the bad CPI print. The shills have advance knowledge of unreleased economic data: they are the perfect inverse signal.

>>58359544
dude, shut up. you can be so right, you're harming yourself.

>>58359544
>I put in a limit order my dude.
A limit order for what? Puts? By the time the market opened the drop already happened and then it crabbed all day so what big gains did you make? Do you mean you shorted shares? If so why would you say you "bought puts."

>>58359483
Just delete the app bro
But unironically you'll probably either have to sell stock or get a job, both of which are sad options

>>58359517
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMfVnBmpMm8
Short term bullish, long term bearish

>>58359551
No, more people need to start inversing these shills so it blows up in their faces. I would rather see them and the rest of their corrupt political regime put in prison than make a few extra bucks inversing them by myself.

>>58359571

>>58359517

OK lying faggot. Enjoy your imaginary gains from the overnight options market.

>>58359427
Based federal agent discoverer. Saved. I will contiue to not use banks. I will continue to wait with 200K in T-Bills. I will get SPY300 or a decently priced house. Whichever corrects sooner. If society cannot afford either, I will say goodbye to this country, and go live in Mexico, Thailand or Argentina. Fuck the Biden Crime family, the Trump Crime family, the Trudeau Homosexual mafia, fuck all of them.

>>58359544
I'm no expert on options but based purely on the data from your screenshot if you were going to make a retarded strategy based on basket weaving forum posts this guy seems to be a buy signal.

you bought calls right anon?

>>58359629
I cashed out some calls and it felt good shiggy diggy

>>58359609
Looks like it didn't actually execute until this morning, but I still got the price I wanted because it was a limit order. Get rekt.

>>58359517
Nature is healing

It's actually kinda wild these guys are at this level of schizo. They're out there holding jobs and voting and shit.

Shorts are too risky in current year. Just wait for a dip, then buy and hold.
Can't go wrong with gold miners btw.

>>58359689

does this still hold up?

>>58359785
At my Home Depot store, the past week has been very slow...in fuckin April. Even when the gardening stuff like Bonnie and Burpee's plants came in not too long ago. Nowhere near as many customers buying bags of soil, fertilizer and trees either compared to 2023.

Consumers are tapped the fuck out. Later this year is gonna be a financial nightmare.

I'm trying to find some stocks outside of tech but I can't find anything I like. People recommend Home Depot and Walmart but I think those will disappear soon. What are some non-tech stocks that are things everyone uses and will continue to use?

>>58359799
that picture makes me so angry, what the fuck is it implying? they were just taken when they happened to hike the price. do you expect them to raise prices by 1c each time?

Are you guys not having a really late Spring? Alberta’s getting snow for the next week.

>>58359882
I'm just curious if it was NVDA (because I remember your post about buying puts last night was in response to bullish NVDA posts) so I can laugh at your heeming. If it was SPY or Qs you haven't made anything except theta decay because they crabbed all day.

I remain bullish on SIGA

Just getting back from Jesus Christ Superstar. King Herod was a literal tranny in high heels. And Mary Magdalene and Judas were nogs. Oh and Jesus wore skinny jeans, a hipster sweater and had a man bun. Oh and they had songs that made light of the Sanctus at mass. And the background dancers threw glitter while Jesus was getting scourged. Other than that it was scripturally accurate!

How is this all having an effect on the elections? Unlike at previous times, it seems like these 2024 electoral rounds havent even started at all outside of the US.

>>58359990
Honestly anon you should probably go to confession for being complicit in that blasphemy. I'm not joking.

>>58360003
Yea I'm due for a confession anyway. I will bring it up. I view Jesus Christ Superstar as just another way of extracting cash from the goyims pockets

>>58359990
that sounds terrible

>>58359847
Interesting. Talking heads already saying consumers are getting price conscience and saving a lot more. I would love to see these mega corps seethe that people won’t give them monies.

Freddy Got Fingered. No one's gonna say this? Let's look into this.
(AI generated prompt illustrating how much I disrespect and disbelieve in you, you, meaning the general collection of people in this general)

Comparing Jerome to Tom Green, I'd say Green was more forward-looking with his daddy issues whereas Jerome is backward looking. He is no one's son. He is the father. But he's waiting for Trump to say certain things again. He need to be told to cut.

And he won't cut. He will hike. Biden is pres.

I fucking worded this so incorrectly.

Just finished booking my air travel this summer. Sadly I could not use my travel rewards card to save the %5 because capitalone travel doesn't support Cebu Pacific which has fare half what other airlines would charge. In addition my 0% apr card I got $200 in benefits on top of it. Still waiting for the physical card to finish consolidating some debts onto the card so I can start yield maxxing using the 0% apr.

theres nothing to trade for tomorrow...

Currently shorting NYCB, expecting them to have to dilute come their next shareholding meeting. List of proposals..

>>58360300
Here are the CEO recommendations to shareholders. His first recommendation is as follows:
"Proposal 4: Proposal to Amend the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to Increase (A) the Total Number of Shares of Stock of all Classes that the Company has Authority to Issue from 905,000,000 to 2,005,000,000 and (B) the Number of Authorized Shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 Per Share, of the Company from 900,000,000 to 2,000,000,000"

and then this
"Proposal 7: Proposal to Approve the Issuance of Shares of Common Stock in Exchange for Preferred Shares of the Company issued in connection with the March 2024 capital raise"

which I am not as sure of.

What in absolute shitfuck are these futures? I am ruined not only for life, but family generations

>>58360329

Huh?

I have so far been doing pretty well on my option plays. Though I paper handed my PBR and sold too early. Missed about %33 potential gains if I had held the calls. Might jump back in now that CEO is confirmed to stick around for now and hes a divy machine.

What's the take here on MSTE? it jumped today from a support area

China is so unironically not even YouTube boomer clickbaiting fucked. Their economy hasn’t even grown since Covid they have young people in a revolt it’s like zoomer quiet quitting on steroids. Baba probably missed earnings by 8 billion. It’s more over than we have seen thus far.

>>58360325
This one is interested. The preferred shares...
"For the period of time between March 11, 2024 and the receipt of the requisite Shareholder approval of both the COI Authorized Share Amendment and the Share Issuance, the Series B Certificate of Designation provides for quarterly non-cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 13%, as and if declared by the Board. The Board cannot declare or pay any cash dividend or make cash distributions in respect of any parity Company preferred stock or the Common Stock, unless the Board declares and pays to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock a dividend at the same time."

"

During the period of time between March 11, 2024 and the receipt of the requisite shareholder approval of both the COI Authorized Share Amendment and the Share Issuance, the Series B Certificate of Designation also provides for a liquidation preference equal to $2,000 per share. "

"Each share of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 1,000 shares of Common Stock"

so.. based on this that would mean there is a supportive floor at NYCB = $2/s ? I dunno exaclty how to read this, but they fucking raked NYCB over the coals making them pay a %13 usury tax.

>>58360418
Good. Revolution is super bullish.

>>58360418
>young people in a revolt it’s like zoomer quiet quitting on steroids
Younger generations, in general, no longer matter. They'll just make more industrial robots.

China is more or less uninvestable for me at the moment. Too many weird cross currents for my bullish thesis to become reality. You don’t even really get to know what you own with some of these ADRs

What do you guys think bout AUNA? Pretty disappointing since its IPO.

>>58359483
What is your overall income? If its below a certain threshold you generally won't owe federal income taxes. Though state taxes may be another matter. And yes, if you do have the tax bill you'll have to find some way to pay it so should just sell some stock.

Prediction: SoFi gets bought by JPM or Goldman in the next decade

so...yoy expectation was missed by only 0.1%. cpi only rose by 0.3% since previous month and we're basically back to where we were at in Jan. its not that bad all things considered.
the market tends to over-react during these cpi/ppi/fomc days, reaction was rather muted.
new zealand is holding its OCR at 5.5% and im guessing US is going to remain unchanged as well. the game plan of higher for longer stands, so nothing has really changed.
im guessing in all likelihood the market will trade sideways at an elevated range bound plateau.

>>58360698
Absolutely based prediction, anon. My shares would be pleased.

>>58360494
Energy

>>58360650
I have no idea, I tried doing a deep dive looking up their bonds but apparently those remain stable at the moment trading for 88c/1d. Racked my head enough on that one for the night.
>>58360677
speaking of sofi, about to do some wizardry with it and balance transfer a loan I have from there at a 9.6% rate to a 0% apr card which will only cost %3 as a fee.. Then use the premiums I was paying just to buy bonds to then roll off to pay the debt once 0% apr ends. I dunno why I was so scared to try 0% apr.
>>58360709
The issue is not the absolute value of inflation anon, its the long-term suggestive trend of inflation ticking back up month/month. Meaning the "Inflation is dead" narrative is losing steam, and we're stuck with sticky inflation that cant be crushed without more tightening in the financial markets.

>>58359854
Vidya stocks. I know I’ll catch shit for it, but video games are recession proof, and gen z is big on em

>>58360725
What I'd like to know is why Certificates of Designation are written with the most ridiculously dense language. I can read through anything else and understand it, but not those.

>>58360713
I just found out that Anthony Noto, CEO of SoFi, is a Goldman Sachs alum so perhaps my prediction isn’t too far fetched.

>>58360743
>recession proof
>gen z is big on em
Kinda need money to game, bud. Wont be any cash to spend on vidya, when mommy and daddy expect you to contribute or move out.

>>58360762
"The terms of the Series B Preferred Stock are more fully described in the Series B Certificate of Designation, a form of which is included as Exhibit 3.2 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2024 and incorporated by reference herein."

Corporate speak is fucking dense. But it has to be so they dont get sued.

>>58360709
>>58360725
Whenever I look up inflation metrics people talk about how the monthly inflation rate is always shown as rising from the previous year, if I am understanding that correctly then the .3% is relative to either: the inflation of march 2023 OR the inflation rate in excess of march 2023. Can someone explain to me how inflation is measured?

>>58360649
In N Out has signs saying starting at $21 in most places I've seen. Not enough to live off of in CA and you are working nonstop the entire shift so idk who would even take these jobs.

>>58360725
sure the uptick is definitely noticeable now, but what actions does the fed take. more hikes or do we hold at current rates? personally i feel like the market hubris and pump of the last year was somewhat uncalled for. perhaps another heeming is on the way

>>58360743
How are they recession proof if kids no longer have the money to throw into V-buck? And regardless, most western video game companies are just imploding from being shit and being bloated to the gills with useless everything such that their budgets are insane.

>>58360803
I mean we already got the answer. The fed holds until after the election. So inflation is going to remain higher for longer. It also puts cuts off the table because rate cuts would just further stoke inflation. The premise that three rate cuts this year was based on lagging effects.. Rate cut now but it also starts stimulating economy months down the road.. and the fed believed & projected that inflation would come back down to their mandate in time before the rate cut stimulation kicked in.

Current portfolio is 350 shares palantir, average cost 17 a share, 949 shares soundhound average cost 5 a share. Anyone see that oracle palantir deal? Palantir is a government contractor and majorly slept on imo.

>>58360784

>Anon I am quite impressed! You can start today.
>Im so sorry your first paycheck was $13, you’ll have to talk to payroll!

>>58360418
BABA gon pop to 110 at least within the year

>>58360781
inflation is down relative to where we were at a year ago but its ticking up relative to recent months perhaps indicating that fed rate is not sufficient at current levels

I don't know what the future holds but I'm glad to have met some of you anons.

What if the real Consumer Price Index was the friends we made along the way?

>>58360774
here's the SEC filing they're talking about, the certificate of designation starts on page 32
https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000910073/2f2c3431-606f-44c9-a4b3-aec2784630ab.pdf

I'm not a corporate attorney, but I think this means that the preferred shareholders get a pro rata 13% dividend of the annual amount declared by the board, prior to approval by shareholders.

>>58360863
I don't have friends.

>>58360835
>starting work without signing an employment contract
don't do that

>>58360835
I know people who have worked there and thats not whats happening. Min wage is already I think $17 an hour in CA. There aren't many places paying less than $20. Why not working some wagie retail job where you can slack off for half the day at $20, instead of working like a nigger for $21/hr. I'm sorry you live in bumfuck Mississippi where they pay $13/hr.

>>58360885
Anon, you do realize wagies (me) don’t know this? It’s far more useful for me to know multiplication tables, the powerhouse of the cell, Pythagorean’s Theorem, African American Poetry during Reconstruction, etc.? If this wasn’t the case schools would be teaching me taxes and laws instead

>>58360895
>I'm sorry you live in bumfuck Mississippi where they pay $13/hr.
Unbelievable nooticing

>>58360867
Oh, so not a %13 annual divvy until they can swap it but just a portion fo the pot that they must be paid.

>>58360743
Buy the Capcom dip ahead of Monster Hunter q1 next year. Or Square Enix if you hate yourself.

>>58360936
yeah I'm pretty sure of that, because one of the stipulations is that the preferred shareholders have to get their dividend before one can be declared for the common shares. But if I were a shareholder I would definitely ask at the shareholder's meeting for an explanation from the CEO or general counsel.

>>58360919
I learned about taxes and laws when I was in highschool. You probably did too, but weren't paying attention that day.

What about TTWO? gta v was record breaking and rdr2 did good, although looking back there wasn’t really a rally for either… there isn’t a scenario where gta vi does not shatter records or atleast triple its developer costs.

they're buying up embracer's scraps hoping to find gold, and their price is pretty high/hasn't dipped far from peak. compare that to CDProjekt's decline since Cyberpunk, with Witcher 4 hype a couple of years away. Easy 4x, unless they fuck up the marketing and their new studio is a disaster...

>You VILL OWN a HOME and you VILL be "HAPPY." You see, how is it that we persuade men to die for their politician, for their bankers, for their bosses? It's quite simple, really. A man who owns a nothing will always be unwilling to die for men who's children live in big homes. Men such as those are worthless. But. And it's a big BUT—if you give a man a home and a family, he NOW has STAKE in his country's future. That's when we declare war on neighboring countries and thus profit from the military industrial complex. Men, impassioned by their stake in their country's future CANNOT help but be COMPELLED to go to war. You see?

Inflation figure is just energy company, car insurance and landlord profiteering. Buy into those companies, I guess. Cost of actual stuff is fine, just need the government to put the boot down on the people making them look bad.

>>58361141
>Inflation figure is just energy company, car insurance and landlord profiteering
>Just invest in energy, berkshire, and banks

is it really so hard to just comb your hair and put on a shirt before you go on camera as an economic analyst and commentator? He makes some good points, but I was hesitant to pay him any attention because of his presentation as a slob, and his clickbait title.

Higher interest rates are inflationary. Irving Fisher figured this out and we are about to find out again. Interest is a cost and when costs go up, prices go up and expected prices go up. Only when interest rates are sufficiently high enough to cause economic damage (people and businesses defaulting, companies going out of business), do higher interest rates become deflationary. We are clearly not there yet.

>>58361168
Its in between middle and upper class neighborhoods.

Speaking of, there's a millionaire boomer that comes to our store occasionally to buy shit for his horses and trees. I shit you not, he told me and other wagies that he and his wife had to CUT DOWN on the usual shit he does. Like, going from Raley's every weekend to Walmart and Safeway to save money.

Just how fucked are we really?

Today I almost considered selling off all my Nvidia shares, 300+ shares at an average cost of $75 dollars per share. I bought more Honda instead.

Slow and steady wins the race.

>>58361234
Correct. Economy is growing too fast at the moment due to illegal immigration which is supportive of more inflation. But the effects will not be evenly dispersed. In addition, tight labour market also means that wages will start cranking which further drives up inflation. If the fed doesn't act quick enough, or some banks don't explode, inflation will accelerate and require an emergency hike.

>>58361557

The US will get sanctioned by OPEC afterwards

>>58361669
$150 seems low considering the absolute state of the dollar plus all the other supply stuff going on with Ukraine and Europe, not to mention Dementia Joe fucking over the SPR and domestic oil.

>>58361678
Not sanctioned. But prices for container ships will explode like it's Christmas. USA will have to print more money for Egypt too and Hezbollah will pop off... Right now China is the only one with any ability to restrain Iran since they buy all their oil. But after striking their embassy and killing a general all bets are off.

>Even when the gardening stuff like Bonnie and Burpee's plants came in not too long ago. Nowhere near as many customers buying bags of soil, fertilizer and trees
Anecdotal evidence for this, in the last 4 years I have mastered off-grid gardening with less external inputs. Make compost, collect rainwater, grow plants from own seeds. Also frugalmaxing and using non-power tools that I already have, or buy second-hand. So in my case the visits to the hardware store indeed are less frequent.

>In March, employment was little changed in retail trade (+18,000). A job gain in general
merchandise retailers (+20,000) was partially offset by job losses in building material and
garden equipment and supplies dealers (-10,000) and in automotive parts, accessories, and tire
retailers (-3,000).

>>58361704
Why the fuck haven't they put their total focus on hydrogen cars already? Its makes the most sense, at least compared to trashy EVs that use a fuckload of resource just for the battery alone...

>>58361835
I'm a retard with math.

That's bad right?

>>58361874
Yes, it’s peak spring season for buying gardening and building materials and those retailers are retracting

>>58361900
Fuuuuuuck

That might mean my hours could get reduced in the next few months down the line, shit.

Somebody do something about the fuckin interest rates already!

>>58361904

yes, higher please

Did the math while at work. Our giga diluted shares are woth about 50 sheets of kirkland toilet paper, with the ladder being more useful. Would it make sense to pursue a job at a company whose stock I like? AXON is apparently expanding into cloud shit and they have their head on straight.

>>58361856
EVs aren't about being environmentally friendly or more sustainable. It's the same as the rest of the green energy sector: make a bunch of money on this shit supported by heavy propaganda and monetary pressure on scientists who know damned well this whole thing is fucked. Green energy is about two things: 1. Make fuck load of money on a 'new' sector. 2.Try to wrench control away from countries with oil (which will be unsuccessful but that's beside the point)

>>58361919
Disagree on energy as a whole but EVs are pretty terrible.

>>58361856
Hydrogen is not efficient as fuel. Besides with all the massive investments in EVs, the path is set. Companies wont invest this much money in a second drivetrain technology

>>58359847

>>58361904
If you get FT you’re okay but Part timers get rekt come end of August like 6 hours a week is generous

>>58361944
EVs are more profitable, less parts to make, less workers required to assemble. They are shit simple machines. The propaganda is required to make people ok with buying an inferior product for a higher price

>>58361919
oil is bound to run out eventually, it's not a question of if but of when. I don't know if EVs will be the future or some other alternative energy vehicle they haven't invented yet, but combustion engine vehicles are on borrowed time. Sure the governments of most first world countries would like this to happen sooner rather than later, but it IS an inevitability.

>>58361998
Anno 1503

>>58362036
oil will run out after you die, if the pharma industry cannot invent an anti-ageing pill
>>58362020
nah I don't like EVs at the moment. I'd prefer a machine that I can rely on, and I'm a techbro myself

>>58361919
With the amount of oil the world consumes daily now and is projected to still consume in the future, I also think the damage that has been done can't be really reversed or in general be stopped. You'd need to stop with everything right now. And people are unwilling to. Not only that, they want growth and growth means consumption in modern economic theory.

It's growth growth growth, and the way pension systems are constructed makes it worse, cause you need more and more people and that also means more consumption of everything. The analogy of us being cancer isn't very wrong. We are growing and certainly not benefitting the planet. You can discuss oil and gas and the CO2 produced by it, but you cannot deny plastic fucking up everything, especially the ocean.
Pandora's box has been opened.

>>58362064
It won't have to run out completely before we will see some big changes happening, it just needs to get scarce enough to where several industries that still rely on oil drive up the prices to where it's no longer attractive for the average consumer.

I always get really sad and depressed if the market crabs like that for weeks at a time.
I wouldnt even care if it would plunge down like crazy.
Its just so fucking boring and looking at the charts is always becoming more of a chore.

bears the market only dipped -1% on hot inflation. what the fuck happened?

>>58362017
I was so lucky to be able to get 35 hours/week for March and April so far despite being only PT. Still, I think I should buy more HD stocks.

>>58362094
We will probably run out of it before we can stop consuming it ourselves. We consume about 100 million barrels a day. How do you want to cut that down? The worst part being the US consuming 20mbd, so 1/5, despite certainly not being 1/5 of global population. Why do you think the US is the global economic power? MAXIMUM consumption. And that is only possible cause the US was so lucky to have oil ressources/reserves on their ground unlike europe, which has far less and mostly in the sea which is a lot more expensive and technically complex/difficult.

>>58362017
that's a cozy chie

>>58362106
The problem for me with extended crab is that it breaks my TA system. If it's rangy flat for several weeks what can happen is a series of false buy or sell signals back and forth and back and forth. If I trade any of these I lose small amounts of money pretty well every time. The only solution I have come up with the mitigate this is to identify when these conditions are likely to persist and adjust exposures according. It doesn't really work but as long as I don't blow my account on stubborn frustration bets I'm okay.

Prediction for the day:

Pump on ECB at 8:15 EST (especially EU indices)
Dump on US PPI at 8:30 EST

>>58362020
I am not saying EVs are good, just that batteries are more efficient for a drivetrain than hydrogen. I agree that prices are inflated, but in general a simpler manufacturing process than ICEs is a good thing. Car manufacturers are fucking cunts though and claim sustainability bullshit while building the heaviest, cheapest, ugliest and most expensive vehicles possible

>>58362192
In the scientific/technology community hydrogen is only really seen as an alternative fuel for heavy vehicles like trucks or even ships. Not really for passenger cars. Also in an ideal future hydrogen would have to be produced by electrolysis, which obviously needs electricity (and clean water). Either way, for all of this to happen we will need more electricity production. The only question is whether that'll be African coal, Canadian uranium, or fucking solar panels.

>>58362287
The i4 looks nice, I think. If I'd buy a BMW, it probably would be that, as it is sporty, elegant, not too large etc.
The new BMW designs look better as they suit the brand better than what Mercedes does to itself. Mercedes has become too sporty. That E-Class lacks presence and mass. The back is too short and rounded, cut off like a dog's tail that's been cut. Mercedes needs some edges. It was supposed to look like a ship, like the 2010 model. You are the captain, essentially, navigating a carship. The star on the bonnet expressed that even more, like a sight on a gun.

That modern front looks like Audi+ something else mixed.

>>58362264

>>58362315
The irony about coffee is that it rose in 2021-2022 because of frosts in july due to La Nina. Now it is up for I don't know which reason, at least Arabica. But Robusta is very likely (though I haven't read on it now) because of El Nino which causes troubles in Thailand or Vietnam where most of Robusta production is.

>>58362319
Problem with German cars is how expensive they are if we talk about new, and how fast they lose value. Best bet is probably a used 3, but they also chug fuel like crazy. German luxury carmakers can suck my dick, and our politicians suck their dick incessantly

Actual black swan or a nothingburger with 2 weeks sauce?

The real reason why stadium lights are “left on” can be seen in the way lights “come on”. Power and lighting is managed. It is not simply switched on but progressively empowered. The power grid simply couldn’t handle such a sudden surge of consumption thus it is manged to prevent blackouts. The reverse is also true. The power grid could not handle a huge power spike caused by turning off the lights in unison. That is more dangerous than turning the lights on.

So what we find is that stadiums slowly turn their lights off after an event. The lighting benefits patrons leaving and allows staff to exercise various functions. The most modern stadiums are now using led lighting with a lot less power consumption so the staging of power is not so much an issue.

>>58362424
SVERIGEVÄNNER

>>58362523
Now that is very contrarian. I think the 2010 model still looks fine, and like a Mercedes. At least the 2010 modell looks similar to the W211 but more edges etc. The new thing is just completely different in its nature.
