Isn't Iran's TV all fake, all propoganda? Why would anyone believe that?

Iran's state TV: We have a draft of the initial unofficial framework for the MOU with the US

Quit blaming Trump and blame the Iranian leaders who keep going back on their (worthless) word. THEY keep playing chicken and are sure going to be surprised when Trump declares enough is enough and just blasts them to kingdom come. I feel so bad for ...

Iran will not attend Wednesday Pakistan talks - Tasnim

You can change the order yourself in that "Comments / Top" link at the upper left, right under the initial news box. Default is now top (most popular) comments, but you can select Oldest or Newest, if you so chose. I switched mine already.

FF Blog: Redesigned News comments

The bitching on this forum is unbelievable - like a bunch of children. The EURO switched directions exactly where I would have expected it to, at the 61.8 retracement of the last leg up on the hourly chart. Most of these moves you all complain about ...

Iran: Drafting protocol with Oman for Hormuz Strait traffic

How could last month have been THAT far off, for a revision of 147K to 14K? Unreal. Powell should have cut rates on that alone.

The US Employment Situation -- July 2025

I was waiting for some type of response about now. Trump had stated letters were going out to the various countries about their tariff percents at 12 noon eastern time today. So this move is right on time.

Trump to impose 25% tariff on goods from Japan, South Korea on August 1st

I think it's great. The countries that keep threatening war keep pushing nuclear war. It's smart that we work to protect ourselves in case they ever truly do get an itchy finger. I'm all for keeping my family safe. Best to be proactive instead of ...

Trump and Pete Hegseth make an announcement

I think the tariffs are all more than fair. He's charging half. I hope if any of the countries give him grief, he should go ahead and charge the reciprocal amount.

President Trump Participates in the Make America Wealthy Again Event

I am not happy about this....

OANDA acquired by Czech prop firm FTMO

Thanks, Biden, for helping to start WWIII by offering Ukraine the use of some of our weaponry against Russia. Just had to make sure Trump starts his second presidency in a sh*tshow, because you haven't messed things up enough already.

Ukraine Makes First ATACMS Strike Inside Russia - RBC Ukraine

Have revisions always been this huge? It seems that these massive corrections are appearing more frequently since the US has tried to prop up the Biden/Harris economic agenda.

The US Employment Situation -- October 2024

We bought our first home in 1980 and interest rates were 16%!! People how cannot even imagine.

Powell: Not going to be sending signals about timing of future actions

Elizabeth Warren doesn't even let him respond! Reminds me of a parent, tearing into their kid, where whatever they have to say doesn't matter because she doesn't want to hear it.

Powell: Not going to be sending signals about timing of future actions

Wow, Elizabeth Warren sure read Powell the riot act! Of course, she never gave him a chance to respond, either, just kept cutting him off.

Powell: The Semiannual Monetary Policy Report to the Congress

This sure isn't anything to brag about! Maybe if he'd kept the pipeline open, costs would have been cheaper for all and we would have ALL benefited from much cheaper energy bills!

Biden-Harris Administration Announces First State in Nation to Launch Historic Home Energy...

It's surprising this meeting was held on Good Friday, with some of the major markets closed. That's why there was no reaction.

Monetary Policy Conference in San Francisco: Remarks with Jerome Powell and Kai Ryssdal

It's pretty sad that one would be better off to take a nice, luxury vacation trip out of the country each year and purchase a goodly amount of the needed drug while there and still come out ahead. Too bad you'd feel to crummy to enjoy it.

Senators ask CEOs why their drugs cost so much more in the U.S.

It sure looks like it, coming out immediately after that terrible Empire State Manufacturing Index number. I would have expected the UDS to tank a bit but no.

Fed's Williams: We aren't really talking about rate cuts right now

That, along with the fact that one more person voted to increase rather than hold rates, than they had anticipated. Even though the vote had them hold, it shows an increase in the desire to raise the rate.

Bank rate maintained at 5.25% - December 2023

So much for all those jobs Biden keeps bragging he created.

Job Cut Announcements Jump in August 2023; YTD up 210%
