False Alarm! Recession Averted, Trump and Musk Feud Like Beet Farmers at a Convention

The Numbers Don't Lie! (Unlike Bears. And Sometimes Dwight.)

Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica. And JOBS! The May employment report was stronger than Michael Scott's negotiation skills. I'm talking a 1% jump in the S&P 500. Turns out the economy isn't as doomed as Mose's scarecrow collection led us to believe. The Fed has got employment and prices where they should be but Trump he wants to pressure them for those interest rate cuts. Sounds like something Michael would do at a chili's.

Dwight vs. The Machines! (Oh Wait Trump vs. Musk)

This is like when Michael declared war on Ryan for being a temp but with more money and less company loyalty. Trump called Musk 'crazy.' Crazy like a fox! Or maybe just crazy. Musk called for Trump's impeachment. These guys are like Jan and Michael just trading barbs. The stakes are high with billions of dollars and federal contracts on the line but I've seen more mature behavior at a volunteer fire drill.

Trade War? More Like a Schrute Farms Barn Raising!

China and the U.S. are talking trade again. It's like when I tried to sell beet futures with questionable data. Trump and Xi Jinping chatted on the phone. Last month they agreed to slow down the triple digit tariff rates. Remember everything's negotiable! Even the price of beets. (Especially the price of beets. Gotta stay competitive!)

Cybersecurity and Semiconductors: Hotter Than Angela's Disapproval!

CrowdStrike and Broadcom hit record highs before their earnings reports. Then came the inevitable sell off. It's like Pam thinking she's an artist then getting her work shown off at a public exhibition! CrowdStrike had a software outage which is almost as bad as when Michael accidentally locked himself in his office. Broadcom is crushing it with AI. Even I can see the potential of technology to enhance beet farming! Wait wait wait. Are they competitors to Dunder Mifflin paper and to Schrute Farms? I will need to have a word with these parties.

Bears. Beets. Broadcom. It All Comes Down to Earnings

The stocks sold off on news that should have raised the prices! Much like Jim beating me out on sales for a few weeks in the past the better party does not always win at first glance. The selling frenzy was from people thinking they could make a quick buck much like Stanley at the office when he sees the possibility of a pretzel.

Investing Like a Pro: (Or at Least Like Jim Cramer)

Jim Cramer says Broadcom is a buy. And Jim Cramer is no fool! (Unlike Andy.) Much like I would tell people a person should always start with a partial position and build their way up over time! With Schrute farms I did not see the value in the farm initially but over time it turned into a beet empire! (Almost). This is not financial advice. Do not come running to me for financial help. You are responsible for your own investments.
