"I've never seen an American player on American soil get so jeered ... I've never seen anybody have to deal with that element in a major championship to the extent that I saw him have to deal with it today."
Brandel talks about the crowd's reaction to Wyndham at the U.S. Open.
Supply chains are like refrigerators.
Everyone needs them.
No one knows how they work.
1. Air freight will not solve this. It’s too expensive and there isn’t enough capacity in planes to replace boats, which move more goods by cubic volume.
2. You also cannot solve this the way the world did with Russian oil.
Unless, the U.S. Customs starts encouraging major customs fraud and allowing everyone to relabel their Chinese goods as Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, and Vietnamese (the other nearby port countries), this product cannot come here. There will be massive amounts of cheating, more than ever, but we cannot solve this through rerouting.
3. This is not just about empty shelves and it’s not solved by buffer inventory.
It’s also about jobs, jobs in warehouses, jobs in the port, jobs in trucking and logistics, and jobs in purchasing.
And trust me, it doesn’t matter what your buffer is, you will go out stock because some products always sell more than forecast.
Final thoughts:
When Trump was first elected, I sent my resume to 3 connected people in the hope that I might be able to assist the administration and, more importantly, the country.
The responses I got ranged from silence to “get out of here, no way.”
I’m politically independent and spoke to the Biden administration when I had an opportunity, but this administration is not (yet?) listening.
It’s been odd to see them attempt goals that I support (bringing manufacturing back and American economic revitalization), but do so in a counterproductive way.
And now I am close to having lost all hope that these goals can be achieved in a way that benefits us, Americans.
We will see what happens…
@garyblack00 If Elon gets a margin call, how is that handled since the window for him to sell is now closed? Did he sell last week to cover a potential margin call around $145 (price I’ve seen some suggest where he would get called)?
Love or hate him, @elonmusk turns 50 today.
We're giving away 100 mini Elon statues. What you do with yours is up to you.
