Gee, Cali rips consumers off the most. Shocking.
Hawaii residents pay 3.5x more for electricity than North Dakotans. See how power prices compare across all 50 states and Washington, D.C. https://t.co/X7Ieej1GxZ via @visualcap
Jobs Blowout
The US added 172k new jobs in May vs expectations for 80k. Unemployment rate remained at 4.3%.
Leisure and hospitality led the way w 70k new jobs created.
Still, no way we see a rate hike this year as many to most economists are predicting.
JP Morgan turns bullish on Tesla (TSLA $408) after firing an analyst that had been bearish on the company since 2015 (price was around $15/sh back then).
More recently, he was predicting the stock would plunge to $145 by year end.
Hilarious.

The Fortune 500, in its 72nd year, just dropped. For the first time in over a decade, it has a new No. 1!

You are great, @HaroldFordJr, but I remember watching Carson, and his political jokes against Reagan and other pols were actually FUNNY. Kimmel's are vitriolic, and you—very respectfully—know that as well. You should run again for a larger office, your party needs some quality candidates.
