How do we stop this? This is wrong. It has to end.

US military says Iran threat to Hormuz 'degraded'

And yet just a moment ago trump promised war crime level actions, bombing Iran's power plants, the largest first, if Iran doesn't immediately open the Strait of Hormuz up.

"Mueller's report fully exonerated me!"
"Glad he's dead!"

- Trump

MAGA - Mindless -------- Gloating, Again.

(hasn't helped drop oil prices one bit, has it? Daamn. The US elected one big league bozo as pResident)

Well we're making Russia extremely rich now. We (the US) removed sanctions, and Russian oil is now selling for $120 a barrel, twice the price of a month ago.

The message is crystal clear to Putin.

ChatGPT.com:

"Compare ROI on ESG investment vehicles against more traditional investment vehicles."

Factor ESG Funds Traditional Funds
Short-term ROI More volatile relative performance Baseline benchmark
Long-term ROI Comparable or slightly higher Comparable
Risk profile Often better downside protection Depends on allocation
Consistency Inconsistent year-to-year Inconsistent
Sector exposure Tilted (tech, ESG leaders) Broad

Final takeaway
The old assumption that ESG sacrifices returns is largely outdated
The newer reality is:
ESG = different risk/return profile, not inherently better or worse

Trump hates windmills and wants no one investing anything in responsible and green alternatives. Just like DeSantis in Florida. I'm pretty sure his EO is total ----. And here you are loving it and Trump using his EO power when you went ape---- over Obama's far less expansive EOs.

The EO, and I haven't read it, if it targets ESGs then it is incredible government overreach and it's playing market maker.
If it applies to ALL investment vehicles and mandates Fiduciary responsibility, it will upend the entire Financial industry. It will therefor be challenged in court and tossed as total garbage and unconstitutional.

Yes, exactly. I would think ANYONE who invests their own money through an investment manager would want said manager to put their best financial interests over other non-related interests.

That's why I chose a CFP that's a fiduciary.
That has absolutely nothing to do with ESGs.

Implementing ESG in an investment plan (or with various vehicles) has shown to be competitively profitable and can positively impact the world around us.

Lots of accusations, with little, if any, substantiation of those accusations.

Exactly.

What evidence was provided for that assertion?

None. It's the way they live. Assert, believe, move on. Never let facts get in the way of the story. The reason seems obvious.

As I understand it, the gist is that Trump's issued an EO that states Investment Managers have to "prioritize" investor's best interest over advisers. It makes Investment Managers act as fiduciaries when considering investment vehicles/strategies including environmental/social goals (ESGs).

The author says that ESG investing has been pushed without investor consent and doesn't deliver decent returns, often without consent, and doesn't deliver "real world" results.

Younger investors, however, prioritize non-financial outcome over pure financial return on investment (ROI).

What a ------- --------.

For the two biggest --------- around on the DR (excluding Visitor and Fartfisher) the translation is:

"Go ---- yourself, you piece of ----. Maybe you should acknowledge that stupid ---------s like you are why we're in this situation to begin with and then kindly shut the ---- up because what you "think" is not needed nor relevant."

Given how straightforward and obvious that "translation" was, and how neither of you two could figure it out? Well that's an indictment of both of you, not JPW.

You morans (sic) owned yourselves.

(Poster boy for of MAGA America)

Different thing entirely.

EC doesn't reflect Americans.

It was 2,284,338 votes, or 1.5%.
That's close.
It's not remotely "not even close."

Fireworks are now WMDs for the Trump Fascist -----.

All those 2nd amendment, tree of liberty, blood of tyrants rants? Turns out that was all --------. They want those 2nd amendment rights only for themselves in defense of fascism, not to prevent it.

---- Trump.

You could afford $3000 if you'd swallow instead of spitting like its gross.

Take it from someone that knows, eh?

Lampliar?
What are you doing? Trying to compete with 1nut for 1st place for Stupid trophy?

ICE is already funded by the BBB. Dems withholding DHS funding has nothing to do with ICE. HC it sure does apply to TSA.

LMAO!
I think we all know that answer.
