This is from about a week ago. The federal government is raising interest rates and banks or major investment firms are hoping that the smaller investor will sell or capitulate in his stock portfolio.
This is not happening and this is frustrating many in the market who are hoping to make money by short-selling stocks that continue to rise. If you short sell and the price of the stock drops, you make money, but the small investor has frustrated the big investor because the big investor keeps losing money on the 'short squeeze' because the stock that they're betting is going to go down actually goes up because the small investor is often stereotyped is not having a pull in the market.
I listen to Fox Business Financial advisor Charles Payne every day at Noon Mountain Time on Sirius XM Channel 113. Charles Payne has people in the financial or economics realm give their opinions on what this administration is doing right and doing wrong. He will often have economists Larry Kudlow ( His show is at 14:00 mountain time) and Arthur Laffer discuss the shape of things to come based on the tax and spend scenarios we are having now under President Biden.
Fox Business Channel will often have corporate executives, billionaires, hedge fund managers, and lately former Attorneys General Federal prosecutors, and district attorneys describing what's going behind the scenes or what the laws are concerning the latest headlines and at the Justice Department.
Sometimes it will have retired General Jack Keane speak on International threats to NATO or the USA.
President Biden is trying to destroy the oil and energy industry yet my stocks are doing better than most of my other stocks. With all the regulations and restrictions President Biden is purposely trying to destroy the industry, the industry is surviving and making good money. I am a benefactor of this.
Environmental, Social, and Governance aka ESG is a new buzzword for the Environmental woke supposed to give equity to everything but energy and oil left trying to make businesses do things their way.
So far, I'm making money thanks to them trying to destroy the fossil fuel industry. While tech and other stocks are going in the toilet because of increased interest rates anticipating a recession due to the economic downturn, the oil and energy stocks continue to go up.
By the way, president Biden's going to stop taking oil out of the strategic petroleum reserve just before election time so watch prices skyrocket after November especially during the Winter when there is a shortage of heating oil.
In the last 5 weeks or so, the market has recovered 15% island and is now out of bear market territory. If you are interested in buying oil and energy stocks, watch for the next major dip because the oil stocks , including coal stocks, are on a roll.
President Biden and the Church of the Gren new deal is actually allowing people to make money by them ( The Woke USG government) trying to destroy the industry and causing the price to continue to go up.
