TSU LOVE
Based on what's known how can the middle class benefit? I do mean middle class, working class and poor people you are screwed. I'll get this started, and I hope you all participate.

Warning, this not financial advice just thoughts.

Investments in:

1. Large Caps, the big boys are going to do well.
2. Big Tech, he made a lot promises to Silicon Valley.
3. Crypto trading, highly speculative, he made promises to the crypto moguls. He has even created his own coin. Actually this move should have been done before last night so you could cash in today, but there is still time to make money.
4. Fossil fuels, he will deregulate and the industry is already lined up for it.

Fed Cuts Interest Rates Again—But Uncertainty Swirls As Trump Policies Could Fuel Inflation​


The Federal Reserve lowered the federal funds rate for a second consecutive time Thursday, but the economic policies floated by President-elect Donald Trump have some economists questioning the path of interest rates heading into next year.

Key Facts​

At the conclusion of the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee’s two-day meeting, the central bank announced it cut the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 4.5% to 4.75%, the lowest level since March 2023.


The announcement comes on the heels of the central bank’s September summit, in which the Fed announced the first rate cut since March 2020, rolling out a supersized 50 basis-point move.


Economists and investors alike heavily anticipated the 0.25 percentage-point cut Thursday, as the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, which tracks derivatives contracts betting on the federal funds rate, priced in a 99% chance of that magnitude of a cut.

The cuts wont last long after agent orange takes offices. Mass deportations and tariffs will drive up inflation!

You'll have to explain this one, especially with the new administration wanting to roll back everything related to electric vehicles.
The only way I can see this benefiting Tesla is, the tariffs which would put a hefty price tag on foreign electric vehicles, i.e. Asian imports.

Tpop33, It has already begun.

Trump Win Sparks Record $64 Billion Gain for World’s 10 Richest People​

  • Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Larry Ellison among top gainers
The net worth of billionaires led by Tesla Inc.’s Elon Musk, the world’s wealthiest person, surged by $63.5 billion on Wednesday, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Musk alone added $26.5 billion to his pot.


Tpop33, Think about the things you already know thus far. Elon used his company X, formerly Twitter, to dilute Trump's bad image and brand Harris unfavorably. Elon went so far as to run a daily million dollar raffle/lottery for people to vote in Pennsylvania. The media didn't say, but I'm willing to bet that raffle was only good in red counties. The fact is Trump owes Elon and he respects him, he's not going to promote a policy that will hurt Elon.


Consider, also, that Elon owns Space X. Elon has now positioned himself to jump to the head of the line for Department of Defense contracts just as he already has for NASA contracts. With that said, consider the fact that although Tesla and Space X are different companies what happens at Space X moves the needle at Tesla.

Tesla and SpaceX are separate companies doing unrelated business. While Tesla makes electric cars, SpaceX builds reusable rockets for launching astronauts and satellites into space. Yet SpaceX activities tend to move Tesla stock, which trades under “TSLA” ticker symbol.
Though Tesla stock is publicly traded, SpaceX is a private company. However, investors are yearning for a SpaceX stock IPO considering its bright commercial prospects. It receives contracts from government agencies and other entities to send astronauts and cargo to space.

Although Tesla and SpaceX are separate companies in different industries, both have Elon Musk as their chief executive. Investors see SpaceX successes as demonstrating Musk’s ability and that makes them have more confidence in TSLA stock.
The other reason Tesla stock rallies on SpaceX activities is that they also provide free advertising for the Tesla brand. For example, NASA uses Tesla cars to transport astronauts to the mission launchpad.

Why Tesla Stock Rises When SpaceX Does Well

Successful SpaceX missions with NASA have lifted TSLA stock. Billionaire Elon Musk runs both companies.

@pvdogteam:

Brother if mass deportations are to become a reality those people will have to be warehoused until they are transported back across the border.

CoreCivic and Geo Group, private prison industry leaders, are probably still celebrating Tuesday's results. Their stocks have jumped with Trump's win also.

Trump’s election win sends private prisons stocks soaring as investors anticipate hard crackdown on migration

President-elect Trump has vowed to launch the biggest deportation in American history—this could translate to big bucks for companies like CoreCivic and Geo Group.

Folks a huge transfer of wealth is already taking place in anticipation of the policies Trump and the billionaires on his cabinet will put in place. It is unreal how high stocks are now. The year-to-date returns for those invested right are surreal. Christmas will be everyday for the rich under Trump.


The total net worth of the billionaires in the Trump administration, as of Dec. 10 equals at least $382.2 billion – which is more than the GDP of 172 different countries. Since Musk, Ramaswamy, Witkoff, Isaacman and Stephens won’t be part of Trump’s Cabinet, excluding them brings the net worth of Trump’s Cabinet to at least $11.8 billion, assuming all nominees are approved in the Senate.

By comparison, President Joe Biden’s Cabinet total net worth was about $118 million, and Trump’s first Cabinet total net worth was about $6.2 billion. Prior to Trump, former President Barrack Obama’s Cabinet net worth was about $2.8 billion in his second term, according to Forbes.

You probably have noticed all those big warehouses popping up everywhere in Houston. If you start to notice tall fencing surrounding some of them, and another inner barbered-wire fence, you might be looking at a building that is being repurposed into a private prison or temporary detention facility.

I have seen them, I just didn't know what they were.

The initial purpose of them is to capitalize off the demand for storage as a result of projected increased maritime trade, due to the widening of the Panama Canal, but I think they have overbuilt in Houston even though it is a major port city. That's why I think some of them could wound up being repurposed.
 
It's nearly impossible to structure a sound investment portfolio under this dude.

His policies devalue the dollar, kill speculation and cause market instability.

Those of you who were in gold early enough, congrats to you all. Whether it is over spending, threats of government shut downs or actual shut downs the GOP always deliver for you all. Now the threat or actual implementation tariffs is doing the trick.
