The spokesmodels, cheerleaders, and stock pimps were all smiles today as the equity indices were bouncing back hard.
But alas, after the bell both Amazon and Alphabet, the behemoth formerly known as Google, shit the bed on their financial results, and the futures headed south with a vengeance.
Gold and silver were off a bit in honor of the Comex expiration today, and a stronger dollar.
There was intraday commentary that attempted to put the migrant caravan boogeyman into some sort of perspective. I have done so previously with the nonsense that is Russiagate. Actually I believe I did that on day two because it was such obvious puff and stuff.
Not that anyone will bother posting something like the facts about 'the caravan' to Facebook, or sending it in an email to their poor long-suffering kids. We're too busy repeating outlandish nonsense like most of the stuff that shows up on certain click intensive sites that traffic in sensational rubbish.
And the jokers who runs stories and fear pieces about 'the caravan' know exactly what they are doing. They do not believe that rubbish they are spouting. They are brazen liars and snakes.
Think about that. By their fruits you will know them. What other poisons are they using to infect your minds with hate and fear, and twist and harden your hearts?
There is no love in them. Except for the darker powers of this world.
We will be getting the Advance GDP numbers for Q3 tomorrow morning.
Have a pleasant evening.
