NEW 2022 gas prices

Oil 71 bucks barrel early this week...62ish now. Tariffs for the win!!!
My Maverick hybrid gets 49 to the gallon. The effects I'm seeing on my 401K from the tariffs far outweigh my interest in gas prices.

Whatever happened to Prince Orange's concern for egg prices? You know, the issue he ran on?

They say that the average 401K in the U.S. has lost $8,000 dollars so far. It is farther down today, that was yesterday's estimate. I'm not worried about the large investors, but the people are getting hosed.

I'm down a little over $12,000 this week. Not cool. I'm 62. A lot of damage could be done by the time I'm ready to hang it up.

In the last nine months we sold two pieces of property. We had parked that and an inherited windfall in a money market fund averaging 4%.

Two weeks ago I had my quarterly chat with my broker. I asked if we were too cash-heavy and should we do something else with that money. He didn't like what he'd been hearing and suggested keeping it where it is for another quarter. We agreed and we'd look at in June.

Friday I received an email detailing the brokerage's trades in response to the tariffs and reactions. In addition to the content for all clients was a reply to me suggesting we leave the money in the market funds alone until at least September. Damn straight.
 
$60K last week, total of $70K over the last two weeks.

Peter Navarro is the one who went to prison for the "Green Bay sweep". Turns out he is also the genius about tariffs..
