The data is unadjusted and real time. I want more information about who exactly runs that site. But they say practically nothing on the page.

They may prefer not to be targeted. |

Steel wire that we buy at work, imported from China, is up close to 100% from this time last year. I thought it might back off but it's getting worse. Purchasing power of the dollar collapse? I don't know what tariffs exactly are affecting it but we are just passing it on to the general population...

I don't know what tariffs exactly are affecting it but we are just passing it on to the general population... A good illustration as to the falsehood of taxing corporations to ease the tax burden of the middle class. Corporations are in business to make a profit and ultimately pass on the cost of doing business to their customers. Whatever increase they see in taxation, the customer base will pay in higher prices. This isn’t rocket science. |

No one wants to work for free.
The tariffs seem to punish the exporting country as Trump planned, but they punish the consumers at about the same rate. China started all of this mess with their list of tariffs in the first place.

Stock market looks dicey headed into next week. VIX futures look set to launch. It's that moody time of year when pullbacks happen, and now they are talking about tapering. And the market is sitting on yards of foamy froth. And rates are already zero. The fed is out of tools this time. We'll see if the printing presses can stave off the bear one more time Walnut, your prediction was right on. |

It's usually hard to tell when a bounce back is real, or instead still the beginning of a much deeper plunge.

The Crypto Baron thinks its going to look like a long ski slope with cliffs. I'm sticking with hard assets and no debt.  |
