Today is another day on which Ward has neglected to tell us how exciting the Dow has been.

As of today, in two days it has wiped out a month's worth of gains.

Still way up compared to 5 months before that.

America is going to mine on the moon.
International agreement is being sought so countries will sign up not to do that.

I know work isn't your thing,  but your quarters would be underground and hermetically sealed.   Dare to dream!

Disturbing the moon could have devastating effects on humanity.
Tides, for example.
I worked hard in workforce, and doing yard work after that...not too hard, mind you, wouldn't want to suffer burnout or get injured.
Slow and steady wins the race.
"Don't finish your...work... by lunchtime, because they'll only give you half of someone else's work to do, and you'll end up doing 1 1/2 jobs permanently while the slackers surf the net, phone their friends, and send inappropriate emails around the office all day" - bambu

Nah, man.  Just click on it.  What's the big deal?

1. Not "it." Them.

2. Courtesy to other posters.

3. I click on items of interest. Blind items don't get clicked on. I read what gets posted.

4. Just post them. "What's the big deal?"

The Dow is just fine.
So is the Economic recovery from the ill-advised lockdowns.

Just to cast a second vote on labeling and introducing links in some way,  I'd point out that the "angry people in fast food place" was still confusing even when you clicked on it.   What happened earlier?   Why was that restaurant chosen for the protest?   I asked this once already.   If poster still doesn't respond,  I'm done clicking their links.

Astra-Zeneca has halted one of is Phase 3 vaccine trials because of an unknown illness among their subjects.

This is a standard precaution, but things won't move forward until they have more information.

Yeah, 1600 points down in two days is nothing, says Ward.

And I am sure the recovery from the ill-advised lockdowns is fine. Since we had none of those, it's easy to understand.

But the recovery from the lockdowns we did have is going slowly, except for the stock markets. Still down 11,000,000 jobs, for example.

Just keep whistling past the graveyard, Ward.

Given that Biden/Harris/Pelosi/Sanders are favoured to win the election...the question is...if China were to invade
Australia, would they go to war with China?

Just pull the covers over your head.

LOL
I like surety.
I'm in no way sure that Biden/Harris/Pelosi/Sanders would go to war with China to save Australia, Japan, Vietnam
etc.

For Facilitatorn...

Unfortunately, with trump’s level of fitness and slow waddling gait, they may never make it to the cliffside without some serious pushing.
