For those who celebrate, #HappyEasterWeekend! Oh, and if you’re doing the whole egg thing? I really hope you got a good rate on the loan you had to take out to buy them. Happy Friday, everybody! #Easter #GoodFriday #HappyEaster #inflation #EggShortage #InterestRates

That time you complained about every single #NFL analyst... and then watched the #NFLDraft for 6 straight hours. Let's get ready to fumbuuuuuule! #NFLDraft2025 #Cardinals #NYJ #ESPN

I dunno. I've had a really long minute to think about it, and if #ShadeurSanders isn't pissed off, he's a better man than I am. He'll be starting by Game 9. Book it. #DillonGabriel? Not so much. #NFLDraft2025 #NFL #ClevelandBrowns #coloradobuffs

#PCE – the #Fed’s favorite report for guidance – came in cool (2.3% HL, 2.6% Core), but it probably means nothing for #nterestrates. It’s tricky for Jay Powell, with #inflation, #tariffs #employment, and #GDP (-.3%) sending some serious mixed signals. cnb.cx/3EKJQIe

Look, there’s no denying that these are good stats (177K jobs added, 4.2% #unemployment), but there’s also no denying that if #trade policy continues to be a Nancy Drew mystery, people will lose their jobs. #Tariffs #supplychainpower #WorkersDay #inflation cnb.cx/3Z1R4hV

Finally watched #FBIMostWanted and now fully understand why it was #cancelled: Dylan McDermott can only channel David Caruso for so long... before he explodes into a million shards of ham. #CBS #primetimetv #actor CBS Paramount+

Hopefully, none of you will ever have to consider #bankruptcy, but if you're there now, this article unravels a few of the mysteries surrounding the process. Check it out then give us a call at Money Management International to find out your options. #consumereducation #DoDebtDifferenty #debt

Look, no doubt #MichaelJordan is still the GOAT -- nope #LeBronJames -- but the dude has never been good on the stick. He's not a media guy. I'd rather he come back and spot for the #Bulls than get all fuzzy with John Starks. #NBA #NBAPlayoffs #NBC cnb.cx/4jSdmLD

#CPI came in a little light (HL .2% M/M. 2.3% Y/Y; Core .2% M/M, 2.8% Y/Y), but it won't matter to the #Fed as they will wait for the impact of increased #tariffs and new #unemployment stats before they consider cuts to #interestrates. #inflation cnb.cx/4mdb6jt

#Fed Chair Powell got to the point quick: #Interestrates are most likely gonna be higher as long as snap changes in policy remain a thing and #inflation becomes more volatile as supply shocks get more frequent. Kind of a big deal speech. cnb.cx/4mdDGBv

Saw #MissionImpossibleTheFinalReckoning. Gotta say, the whole Tom #Cruise running really fast thing has become like Caruso's sunglasses, but it's worth a silly summer action movie watch. And get ALL the #popcorn 'cause this joint is long! JimBob Sez: "Check it out." #Paramount

Happy #MemorialDay2025 and thank you to those service members who gave the last full measure of devotion to this country and what it stands for. Despite the trying times, we will never forget your sacrifice. #veterans #Army #Navy #AirForce #Marines #CoastGuard #America

U.S. payrolls increased 139,000 in May, but I'm not sure how sustainable that number is with #tradewars and #tariffs peeking over its shoulder. Much like #inflation, I think we're seeing a calm before the storm. #Fed #InterestRates #FOMC #unemployment cnb.cx/4mQABaK

#CPI came in light... and I'm not surprised. Why? Well, energy prices took a hit, retailers and wholesalers are currently eating the cost of #tariffs, and it always takes a minute for #inflation to react to #trade policy. #Fed #FOMC #interestrates. cnb.cx/3HA0yv3

#HappyFathersDay to all the #Dads out there! While it's nice to get a present or a card, the real gift is spending time with my kids and watching them grow into incredible adults. Although, I wouldn't turn down a post-#USOpen round at #Oakmont. Just a thought. #FathersDay2025

Well, the #Fed did nothing on #interestrates. Not a big surprise. Hurry up and wait is going to be the default of the #FOMC for the foreseeable future as any clarity on the impact of #tariffs and #trade policy will be a long time coming. #inflation cnb.cx/45wver6

#HappyJuneteenth! Remembering the abolition of slavery is noble, but it doesn’t mean there's not work to do. Income inequality, food insecurity and educational disadvantages are still issues in the Black community. #Civilrights are human rights -- one diminished, all diminished.
