Retail investors are piling into equities at a historic pace:
Cumulative retail equity inflows year-to-date are tracking above every comparable period over the last 7 years, except 2021.
After a brief pause in March, retail purchases surged in April to a level seen only 13% of the time in monthly data since 2019.
In the week ending May 1st, retail purchases ranked in the top 2% of all weekly inflows recorded since 2019.
At this pace, cumulative purchases by individual investors will exceed the 2021 record by as early as July.
Furthermore, the average daily volume of options traded by retail investors is up to 1.57x of January 2024 levels, the highest since the October 2025 record.
Risk appetite among retail investors is accelerating.

In an era where US govt debt is $40 trillion and the govt budget deficit is at $2 trillion to $3 trillion per year, owning govt bonds long term is going to get you crushed.
The govt can’t raise taxes and can’t cut spending. The Fed will have to print the $$$ (digitally)

US oil reserves are falling at a record pace:
The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) dropped -8.6 million barrels last week, the largest weekly drawdown on record, per Zerohedge.
This marks the 7th consecutive weekly decline, the longest streak since 2023.
Over this period, US oil reserves in the SPR have dropped -31 million barrels, to 384 million, the lowest since October 2024.
This wipes out nearly half of all the oil added to the SPR between July 2023 and March 2026.
Meanwhile, US crude oil exports jumped +742,000 barrels last week, to 5.5 million barrels per day, the 2nd-highest in at least 3 years, after a record 6.5 million barrels per day 2 weeks prior.
The world is scrambling for American oil.

I've received a lot of vitriol regarding my post about ChudTheBuilder, so I would like to clarify a few things:
1. I am 100% correct on every single point.
2. Dozens of people have commented saying that Chud walks up to random people and antagonizes them for no reason. Every time I ask for even one video of him antagonizing people who are not already misbehaving in public, these commenters disappear.
3. Dozens more are whining about the fact that he doesn't just turn his head and walk away. This seems to be their answer to everything, because they are cowards.
4. Many more continue accidentally proving our point. "Go around using the N-word and you are going to get murdered". Yeah. That's the point. We are being forced to live with violent an unstable people. There is no name you can call me that will make me murder you.
5. "Your boy is going to jail". Meh, I doubt that. He was hit first, and had reasonable grounds to believe that he was in serious danger due to the violent history of the man who attacked him. This is the same man who was charged with domestic assault and attempting to burn down an apartment building when he was mad at his wife. Seems like this will be a pretty simple case of "Stand Your Ground" in TN, as these two elements would seemingly meet the burden to justify the shooting.
6. That post really brought out the degenerates. Pray that God would save them, or spare us of their presence.

You know what’s crazy? If the black guy who attacked Chud succeeded in killing him, the judge would rule he’s “incompetent to stand trial” and let him off with a warning
