So shops in the US have no airconditioning?

 

Summer Movies Sap Chain Store Sales

 

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. chain store sales fell for the second week in a row, as would be shoppers beat the heat by going to the movies, but solid year-over-year sales suggested healthy monthly results, a report said on Tuesday.

 

"As potential shoppers flocked to the theaters, chain-store sales were a little less robust," said Michael Niemira, ICSC's chief economist and director of research, in a statement.

 

What a load of crap :lol: :lol: :lol:

Finally, someone has exposed the truth! We must ban theater-going in order to save the economy and defeat terrorism...particularly prior to the wide distribution of Michael Moore's new film.

Also non-market related, a new "less lethal" strain of Ebola discovered:

 

"The suspected new variant has killed between 25 and 30 percent of the people infected, while other variants kill between 50 and 90 percent of those who contract the disease, Ahmed said." Article

 

It has been theorized that the Fibonnaci level of 23.6 is the optimal kill rate for a virus, in order to save some of it's less-symptomatic infectees to spread the virus elsewhere. The original Ebola wasn't a threat, because it killled everyone so quickly, they couldn't spread it.

 

Nature finds a way.

Silver sure didnt have a problem getting through 6

Never been so loaded

You really shouldn't start drinking this early. :lol: I've been loaded for years. :lol:

 

I'm anxiously looking for any COT updates. I'm guessing if it claws back above $6.50 we could be off to the races again.

An observation on the new economy my Lady and I just purchased a new vehicle after a few weeks of lookung in the subterraniun and murky world of Car Dealers. Finally we found an old, jaded cynical Salesman who told the truth-he said "no one pays Cash, no one has cash, everyone leases, down payments more and more are put on plastic, no one really cares about credit scores anymore we just have to move the Iron. We do that with zero interest and extended terms. He said 7 years is on the horizon and 10 year terms would not surprise him at all. They sure as Hell aren't making any money our warranty is 5 years bumper to bumper with no deductibles and 7 on the power train. How long can they survive??

A very nice start to all positions I track

Looks like connecting the dots may be surfacing with COF MTG MBI CFC

 

FNM and FRE still in the twilight zone

 

B$4

 

Everyone I know leases. Owning anything is out of favor as the matrix has successfully convinced all that we deserve to live beyond our means. Who will pay? We will pay

Like MArk said yesterday, the margins are in the rims. Also the extended warranties and extras like chinchilla rugs, and high-res GPS so that you know your daughter and her clothing are in the same location.

:lol: Thats a new one ....ususally the is the excuse of choice cause it can be twisted any way they choose and it's foolproof....."unseasonably wet weather caused shoppers to stay home as chain store sales lagged".....or the "rainy weather caused people to shop more thus the reason for an increase in sales as shoppers spent more time indoors"...

 

whatever fits....
