Powell's Out, Now What?

Yo, it's Rocky here. Just heard Jerome Powell's hangin' up the gloves at the Fed. End of an era, see? Like when Mick passed, I had to find a new way, a new fight. The stock futures are down this mornin', tellin' ya the market's feelin' it too. But remember what I always say: "It ain't about how hard you can hit, but how hard you can get hit and keep movin' forward." So, let's see who steps into the ring and how they handle the punches.

Trump in China: Deals and No Deals

Heard Trump went over to China, talkin' business with President Xi. Sounds like a heavyweight bout, right? Lots of jabs and feints. He wouldn't even tell Xi if he'd defend Taiwan! Talk about holdin' your cards close to your chest. China might buy more oil from us but ain't said nothin' yet, and they might get some Boeing jets but it is not final. Remember, "Every champion was once a contender who refused to give up." Wonder if he checked out Iran's Bold Counteroffer Stuns US Peace Plan while he was strategizing. All this stuff affects everyone, even Adrian!

Chip Makers are Booming

This Cerebras company, they jumped up big time when they went public. Like Apollo Creed doin' a backflip in the ring. That's good news for the fellas in Silicon Valley, yeah? But remember, "Money doesn't make you happy. I have $52 million and I'm miserable". So, keep your eye on the prize, which for me is Adrian and my family. There's also talk about Musk's SpaceX goin' public soon. The rockets are still working!

Wall Street Scores a Knockout

The Dow and S&P 500 are makin' new records. Cisco is climbin' faster than I used to run up those museum steps and Ford is lookin like they're back in the ring. It's lookin' like things are good now but that can change any minute so remember what Adrian always says to me 'Show your love. And show it now. Because now is all there is'. The market is a long term thing.

Auto Industry Hits the Brakes

The auto companies, they are cutting back because of the robots comin'. They're tryin' to stop cars from China comin' in, too. It's tough out there, like fightin' Drago in Russia. Gotta protect those jobs, see? Just like I had to protect my pride. Its a tricky situation but we can figure it out.

Crypto Gets Some Rules

They're makin' laws for the crypto stuff now. The Clarity Act, they're callin' it. Some folks are for it, some are against it. It's all about keepin' things safe and fair, right? Like makin' sure Apollo didn't have lead in his gloves. Seems like the crypto exchange called Gemini made a big investment and stocks went up big time.
