Apparently the Seafood business in Houston, Texas is not the only industry going through a rough patch. The guy brings up some good points about how plenty of people are going to baseball games and buying 20.00 beers but there are segments of the economy struggling and it is likely to spread to other areas.

Buffet may be losing his touch. Over the past 10 years Buffet's company Berkshire-Hathaway has under-performed the S&P 500 index (SPY) by about 1.5 percent per year on average (dividends included).

Costco started selling the 1-ounce gold bars in late 2023 in its stores and via its website, available only to members.
Since then, the company has started selling silver coins and now platinum bars and coins.
Wells Fargo in April estimated that the big-box retailer is selling up to $200 million in gold per month.
And Costco sells sells disaster supplies too.

Good for them. Hopefully taking some of the pirates out of the physical gold market that make a fortune on simple exchanges... |

Good for them. Hopefully taking some of the pirates out of the physical gold market that make a fortune on simple exchanges... There are some places of exchange that are reasonable. Silver carries a "heavier" markup.
Costco gold sales may also be an indicator of "depression" in some areas.
A flurry of buying from Costco is happening amid signs elsewhere that cash-strapped Americans are cashing in on gold’s rally. New York’s pawn shops and jewelers have seen a flood of sellers. Sales of American Eagle gold coins — a proxy for retail buying — tumbled 64% in the January-September period from a year earlier, according to US Mint data.

The way people shop is changing also.
My wife is a shopaholic and I have worked from home in the last year, the average number of drops a day is horrifying. We have friends with a small chain of stores, very small, all their growth is online no more stores to open and the existing ones are really just profile or something.
