Brexit victory: UK scraps 'mad' EU plan saving taxpayers billions

oops, if that rant gets through, that was me, forgot to log in...again.

Facebook's 'reprehensible' move to block news in Australia will have dire consequences, MPs...

That "someone" is FB. {edit - this is confusing, having read some interpretations - some say that outlets unilaterally post on FB, I find that odd. How? Are there just generic links to say SBS?}. Should FB lift that "news" from a public broadcaster, ...

Facebook's 'reprehensible' move to block news in Australia will have dire consequences, MPs...

Yes, quite the Empire.

Sterling hits $1.40 for the first time in nearly three years

Here I was thinking that the mafia would be a challenge as they are in charge of Italy.

The challenge for Draghi's technocratic government is a political one, says economist

The bloke is not not Australian government. In opposition, like Labour in UK. Obviously. He says FB is credible. He also says Australia is in a corona virus pandemic. Comrades will stay in Opposition until they grow more than 3 neurons.

Facebook's 'reprehensible' move to block news in Australia will have dire consequences, MPs...

That's OK. People might seek healthier and cheaper alternatives, but I digress.

US workers go on strike in 15 cities to demand $15-an-hour minimum wage

I didn't know that. Do people stay on that wage permanently? Or is it like a starting thing, and they progress? I know that in countries with a relatively high minimum wage it can be permanent. If ya don't like it, you leave (or maybe promoted to ...

Empire State Manufacturing Survey

It depends, of course. Forget IV, that is mostly for options traders and subjective analysis like sentiment (along with other stuff like COT, put/call ratios, volume, news, forum tips, and everything else in that kinda basket). Rather, get to know ...

Implied Volatility: What is it & Why Should Traders Care?

Well if that contention is correct then that's what Keynes desired, and his central planning proteges (government and central banks) have delivered it in spades - zero or negative real interest rates, wildly inflated asset prices, a mountain of debt ...

Dwindling cash use is pushing central banks to race toward digital currencies

The key word is "alleged". Australian authorities must be worse than incompetent that after years of suspicion they cannot prove anything. Without proper due process and any actual conviction, no director should have reason to be subject to this ...

Crown Resorts chief Ken Barton resigns amid money laundering scandal

That was me immediately above, forgot to log in. Yeah, so, basically if everyone is given a wheelbarrow of fluff, those who actually need it would spend it how they usually do to maintain their previous state of hand to mouth existence. This is ...

Dwindling cash use is pushing central banks to race toward digital currencies

Yes. This is why briefcases were invented.

Dwindling cash use is pushing central banks to race toward digital currencies

Thankyou for sharing your experience and wisdom. As I mentioned, I don't really know why lumber prices have rocketed. I doubt, however, that it is due to some derivative pump and dump play, or a deliberate squeeze, but rather what is happening in ...

Inflation Expectations Are Up. Should Investors Worry?

Yeah, that YOLO theology is a bit of a no brainer, really. Too many dollars, not enough cents (yes, they can afford the latest gimmicky iPhone/smart technology, so none of this crap about being poor). They actually don't care if they lose? Och, made ...

Retail investors are flocking to Discord amid the Reddit day-trader revolution

We understand, Big Brother, oh wise one. You can try to think of better lies, though. That one is just silly now.
