AWF Slowing Down

In the future, these massive energy centers will be built much like modern stadiums holding local taxpayers hostage with threats to move to another city that’s willing to pay.

The problem with AI is more or less the same as for ANYTHING where a "bubble bursts." The thing in question was oversold, over-anticipated, ... somehow given great expectations which it could not achieve. Stock market crashes and housing crashes and Progressive Liberal beliefs in presidential candidates and belief in Joe Biden's mental acuity... all thought to be better than they actually were, and then the bubble burst.

I think it may be the negative corollary to "Hope springs eternal in the human breast." We hope for a good thing to last and ignore that sage advice, "Get while the gettin' is good, then get out." Remembering the first one is how bubbles form. Folks remembering the secondone avoid splash damage when the bubble bursts.

Hey Guys, consumer here. I would hate to see this resource disappear for sure. YouTube would probably drive-up participation. I am an office manager, construction industry, in the US started in the small business sector and while we have grown into a larger corporation who can pay Salesforce ect. we have a better system than that of any SOS. I think your base consumer is a small business sector and we rely on being resourceful. We google everything but to understand a complex procedure I go to Youtube to learn. Simply having some instructional type videos plugging the forum should drive your numbers.

Which, let me tell you! I found Alexsander's Gnatt Chart searching this forum and I've watched the whole video twice I am eager for some down time so I can try to implement it. In searching YouTube there is not a lot of resources there - the couple people/accounts I came across weren't helpful.

Should I now buy the dip, or is it going to sink further?

I am NOT a financial advisor and don't portray one on TV. Any advice I might give derives from my natural skepticism. But I'll tell you about my exposure to Bitcoin. I never bought in when it started and haven't changed my mind since.

Anything that is speculative in nature is a fast way to lose your shirt. The timing required to get out of such markets is remarkably difficult to pin down. I know better, and so I stayed out.

Unless you have Nancy Pelosi like skills it's best not to speculate on stocks. On the other hand the market has been up 13% YTD.

In 1974, I started my apprenticeship on £9.81 per week!

I understand this was approximately a 3rd of a man's wage...

Copper must be doing well, nobody around here can keep an outdoor item that contains copper for longer 'n a week before the homeless find it and claw it away

We need to make certain things illegal for recycling yards to accept from the public. Like catalytic converters industrial wire some building materials. If we put the onus on the recycling business we might get better results than we are currently experiencing.

 

[AccessBlaster]

They would lobby legislature against doing that. Recyclers are making lots of money from stolen metals.

Well that's it then, the thieves win. On to the next unsolvable problem!

What I have seen done is undercover law enforcement profiling and intercepting people arriving with shopping carts full of copper wire and plumbing, but letting through the carts of smashed aluminim cans. I

What your describing is the status quo, if that solution worked we would see a decline in thefts. My solution would threaten the business licenses of shady operators.
