  1. Manufacturing PMI prices paid came in hot yesterday. Services PMI today is basically the reverse. Prices paid index sunk to a 4 year low.
  2. Prices gradually started to come down over the last few weeks, but are spiking crazy high again for Easter weekend. One place I keep an eye on went from like $4/lb on Monday to damn near $7 this coming weekend. Lot of places not even taking reservations.
  3. Consumer sentiment at highest level in 3 years. Inflation expectations drop back below 3% For the first time in 4 years, more people do not expect a recession than do.
  4. Haven't checked yet, do I still need to pay way too much money a month to have Fubo to watch Astros?
  5. That ain't my friend no more. That's my stepson.
  6. Good ol' neutral Elon at it again. It's just so hard to nail down his political beliefs these days.
  7. FMOC kept expectations at 3 rate cuts in 2024. They also significantly raised their GDP forecast for 2024 (1.4%->2.1%) while only modestly raising their Core PCE forecast (2.4%->2.6%). Stonks to the moon.
  8. New ATH for the S&P today at 5178. DJIA (39,110) and Nasdaq (16,166) both back to within 0.5% of their previous ATH.
  9. Cabbage and Hensley sent packing to minor league camp. Loperfido still hanging in there.
  10. Is the scientific explanation that you have untreated schizophrenia?
  11. On the other hand, GOP folks keep crowing that we WERE energy independent under Trump (based on the same "net exporter" metric) but that Biden has crippled it. Trump lately has been dusting off the "we're gonna drill, baby, drill" line as one of the top priorities in his 2nd term. All of which is pretty fucking dumb given current production levels and import/export numbers. By and large, people outside the industry, both on the left and right, have absolutely no idea what they are talking about when mixing politics and O&G.
  12. Spandex, hair spray, men's makeup kit, and kilo of cocaine ordered separately.
  13. Silly new guitar day for me yesterday. I now have a dedicated "80's shredder." Jackson DKAM (Transparent Red) delivered yesterday. Been learning a bunch of cheesy 80's hair metal solos lately. Style of playing definitely calls for 24 frets and a double locking Floyd Rose. Maple fretboard plays quicker than the Pau Ferro on my PRS and the jumbo frets make for cleaner tapping.
  14. Seems highly likely that today will mark the first close for WTI above $80 since early November. Currently up $1.50 to $81.25 this morning.
  15. Looking for a new Astros hat for the season but coming up blank so far on what I want. Does anyone make a navy hat like this with the 80's logo and a white or orange rope?
  16. Never bothered me much as a younger man, but I've noticed the past 2 or 3 years that it takes me a solid week to get adjusted. Sleep has been all kinds of fucked up the past 3 nights.
  17. The 2 singles released from the upcoming new album by Gatecreeper are both bangers, IMO.
  18. It a appears that a healthy amount of rainfall is on tap for the 2nd half of the month, kicking off with a persistently rainy weekend ahead.
  19. Spring Break week at work when you don't have kids. Traffic on the way in to work is lighter than usual. Can park just about anywhere you want in the office garage. Office is extremely quiet. Useless weekly meetings cancelled.
