SPX the adults in the room

[Scott Redler @RedDogT3]

Markets are mixed ahead of today’s jobs report, with $SPX futures -28. Key is whether 7516 (yesterday’s low) holds, or if they shake the tree lower. 7551 is the near-term line in the sand, with 7620 as the recent high.

Once I started bouncing between espn’s featured pairings and the CBS “production”, it was obvious. Then you could hear the prescience (e.g., “watch this”) in Dottie’s and others voices,.

Proposing a different tax is thinking past the sale. You’re doing their work. Try gutting the graft.

[Chamath Palihapitiya @chamath]

a counter proposal to the "billionaire tax", aka the asset seizure tax, which is gutting the state of hi income tax payers, would be to tax carried interest or tax the use of margin loans. both would solve the revenue goal without driving hi value californians out of the state.

Try it with “Another Roadside Attraction”.

[Moxie Marlinspike @moxie]

When I was in highschool, a friend gave me a copy of "On The Road."

It was a big part of what inspired me to wander into a freight train yard and climb on a 48 for the first time, or to stand by an on-ramp and stick my thumb out for a string of rides across the country a few years later.

I remember reading it and wanting my life to feel as full, to have friendships as meaningful, to know so much more about what was "out there." On those trips I was always wide-eyed, writing poetry, talking to everybody, leaning forward into the road ahead.

I'm in a re-reading phase, and I tried re-reading "On The Road" for the first time since I was a teenager. I actually couldn't finish it. Far from being inspiring, all I could think was that I'm glad that isn't my life. It seemed almost the inverse of everything that inspired me as a teenager: shallow relationships, absent of meaning, a small and almost unadventurous existence.

This has been the same for almost everything I've re-read. It has made me realize that if I re-read something and am not disappointed, it probably means I've been doing something wrong.

@PeterDiamandis I love it Peter. I’m damned tired of burying loved ones who were killed by cancer.

But how does this impact the finances of the cancer industry?

National Cancer Institute says the total spending on cancer care in the United States for 2024 is estimated at over $250 billion.
