    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    This is the thing that annoys me. I know DBG's target audience is the box army krono farmers. I know they are dense.. But can't they just realize their core nostalgia fan base is now 40-50+ years old? The majority of that demographic cannot sit around raiding and grinding xp/AA for days, weeks...

    The Heroes Journey (Multiclass EQemu Progression Server)

    Bottom line, it was the best EQ experience I have had in decades. Most of us grizzled vets are fully grown adults with responsibilities like families, careers, etc. 98% of us don’t have the free time to poopsock live EQ rule sets as we did when we were teenagers / young 20s. THJ will ultimately...

    Exactly right. The people peddling Fed cuts = cheap mortgages are often in the RE sales industry. “Date the rate & marry the house” has been repeated over the last couple of years, making buyers believe you can just buy no matter what at elevated rates and “just refi later”. Bottom line: Fed...

    In today's AI circle-jerk news: NVIDIA announces $100B of its own money to give to another company, so that other company can buy NVIDIA stuff. Market adds $200B market cap to NVIDIA on the headline. Can't make this stuff up.

    It is a few mega caps carrying everything today. Quite the mixed market and Bitcoin has been the leading indicator to markets and it is down over 2% and given up the 100D MA once again. This doesnt look like healthy market action today. Of course this is just a daily snapshot, but nothing about...

    The only thing I will say is the stock market is not the housing market. Stocks are fickle, liquid and can be panic sold at the push of a button. Housing? Not so much. From the historical perspective of the last “crash” of the 2008 GFC / Housing Crisis: Lehman collapse (alarm bells blared)...

    @Sanrith Descartes Market shouldn't be pricing in a 50bp cut at all tomorrow. There's like 4% odds on that, which would be counter to market positioning. https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html

    SPY/QQQ/IWM all well into the green today, yet the VIX is up nearly 6%. Clearly shows there is a healthy amount of hedging taking place going into this Fed week.

    Tesla had a big move on Friday that some were trying to attribute to lower rates coming this week (auto loan positive impact). Never made sense to me as .25% is fuck all in the scheme of things. Turns out that a filing revealed Elon bought $1B in Tesla stock under a trust that day. Move has...

    IWM's problem is you have most of these companies relying on debt. Some completely unprofitable and 100% reliant on cheap debt. Since the tightening cycle, it has really put a ton of pressure on those companies. It is a precarious situation where we have a current stagflationary environment...

    You're not necessarily locked in. You can sell on the open market if absolutely necessary. And if we get Fed rate cuts, the underlying value of the bond will increase. (Inverse relationship price vs yield)

    SPAXX isn't terrible to park cash in, as you are getting just under 4% yield (minus fees). Better than sitting in a bank account. You can always buy 3 month treasuries currently yielding 4.04% (no fees). The return likely drops after Fed rate cut next week though. There is a 3 & 6 month bill...

    My mother had hers with some retarded Edward Jones managed advisor account.
