Overall rate of inflation has slowed.

Due to President Trump or President Biden?

True, inflation has gone down 0.2%. Nest egg has gone down 10.0% SAD
Just think of it as a 10% off…
Seriously? I get the concern and I don’t see the logic in what he’s doing other than setting a madman baseline. And I think my income is probably more current economy based than most of yours. But I’m not going to rush to conclusions and am a little more willing to wait and see. Maybe I’m wrong, but what am I going to do either way? Buckle up and hope that I’m right, and that if I’m wrong the United Stated relationships and the global economy can take it.
IT DOES HELP THAT I’ve sent Luke’s final tuition bill in…

Congratulations!
Next question is: Will the labor market look good for Luke after he graduates?
-
Yep. He should be good.

Seriously?
I’m not too worried. Honestly I kind of hope S&P gets below 5k then I’ll shift investments into aggressive growth mode for the next few years to capture the rebound. It was only at like 3200 before COVID…

Importing eggs is two week old news stuff.
Prices have fallen...
But I do think prices will rise for Easter, before resuming falling.
-
But let's be realistic. The cost of eggs has nothing to do with President Trump (or President Biden). Fun to try and blame one of the other, but I think we are all smart enough to know otherwise.

TRUMP: Eggs… you were the one who asked me. It was the first week. I didn’t even know what you were talking about. Egg prices were so high you couldn’t buy eggs. They didn’t have any eggs. None! And then—we had Easter at the White House and we had thousands of eggs. Thousands. And prices were down 87%. People couldn’t believe it. They were crying.
WELKER: That spike was because of bird flu, not policy. It was a temporary supply shock, not economic sabotage.
TRUMP: Why do you say that? I had—We had the same bird flu as he had. Same birds. Same flu. Maybe worse birds, to be honest.
WELKER: Sir, your timeline doesn’t even match. The outbreak peaked after you left office. Prices surged under Biden due to reduced flock size, and they stabilized because supply recovered.
TRUMP: No, no. Under me, eggs were patriotic. Everyone had eggs. Golden eggs. Under him, people were hunting pigeons. I saved the egg industry. Look it up. Google “Trump Easter Miracle.”
WELKER: You’re taking credit for an agricultural cycle and blaming inflation on poultry diseases.
TRUMP: I fought for eggs. Biden’s too weak on eggs. You need tariffs, you need toughness. You don’t beg the birds — you dominate them.
WELKER: That’s not how avian flu works.
TRUMP: That’s what they said about COVID too. I was right there too. The birds loved me. I never got bird flu, did I?
WELKER: I don’t even know what we’re talking about anymore.
TRUMP: We’re talking about winning. With eggs.
