Thanks to bernardolezka for turning my investment of $1,000 into mind blowing profit of $6,000 I'm grateful for your good job sir🙏🙏

The stock market represents the corporate economy not the people's economy

Unfortunately the country is lost.....the inequality is driven by the FED massively. While millions lost their jobs and starving, the Rich had the best year in their life.....One sentence from JeromePowell last week showed exactly what really counts: '...markets are listening'

Stocks have no idea what they're in for under Biden but it doesn't end well.

Perhaps Biden can create a plan to build minority-owned manufacturing plants here in U.S.? Kind of like Opportunity Zones from Trump Administration? It would be a win win - help minorities and create jobs. Putting people of color in management positions isnt enough.

thank you very much for your work
