The Stock Market is Not the EconomyWhatever happens to the...
Robert Reich - 6 hours ago
*The Stock Market is Not the Economy* Whatever happens to the economy – jobs, wages, the hardships so many are facing – *the stock market seems to be in a world of its own. Why?* The primary answer is simple. Stock values roughly reflect profits, especially anticipated profits. When profits are expected to rise, stock prices trend upward. But that only raises a deeper question: *How can profits be trending upward when jobs and wages are doing so badly?* Because of a disconnect in the American economy that began way before the pandemic – about 30 years ago. Before the 1980s, th...

The U.S. Economy Is Rebounding: Will Trump’s Reelection Prospects Do The Same?
Milton Ezrati, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Milton Ezrati* *Economics, Americas* There can be no doubt that the third quarter’s GDP tells the story of a powerful growth rebound. Whether recent good news on the economy will affect the election result remains an open question, but there can be no doubt that the third quarter’s GDP tells the story of a powerful growth rebound. The Commerce Department reports that the economy’s gross domestic product during the third quarter grew at a stupendous 33.1 percent annual rate. This is surely a record and verifies a host of other statistical evidence that the economy has been roari...
P-51 Mustang: Could World War II's Best Fighter Have Replaced the A-10?
Michael Peck, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Michael Peck* *Security, * Here's why it never happened. *Key Point*: Had life worked out differently, the Mustang could also have fought in Vietnam and flown against a Soviet invasion of Western Europe. The North American P-51 Mustang was one of the greatest fighters of World War II. Had life worked out differently, the Mustang could also have fought in Vietnam and flown against a Soviet invasion of Western Europe. In fact, it might even have replaced the A-10 Warthog.

Dear students, If you ask about your grade, I’ll gladly tell you that you’re doing well in the course, or that you really need to do better, as the case may be. More specifically than that I will not say. The main reason for this is that if I were a hiring manager at a company, the very last thing I would ever think to ask you about would be your grades. When you interview for a job, you should show that you understand the company’s situation, that you have knowledge, skills and experiences that prepare you to do the job, and that your personality and way of working fit the company...

All indications are that Joe Biden is heading for a landslide win. Losers will be Trump and those Republicans who have not already defected to the Democrat’s big tent.
