Just testing how many checks it makes and on what and where. Not sure what triggers it or where.

So no?

whyrat , in These Two Market Indicators Are Flashing Warning Signals For US Stocks

VIX under 20 isn’t a warning… The stock market valuation indicator I agree with: stocks are a bit over valued right now. But over valued just means we need a correction… not whether it will be a mild or severe one.

What’s more troubling is the market reacting already to nonsense trump comments. From the caption in the linked article:

The latest market sell-off was partly triggered by former President Donald Trump’s comments on Taiwan and tariffs.

Does no one else remember the dumpster fire that was the markets jumping at every comment and policy flip-flop during his four year term? The same volatility indicator (VIX) regularly jumped over 20 after some dumb trade policy comment…

dogslayeggs ,

I find it ridiculous that they are reacting to something said by a convicted felon who isn’t yet involved in US government policy and is known for both lying about everything and doing the opposite of what he says on a regular basis.

Can we put the "thank you", "donate", and "beep boop" in a collapsed section too? That's a heck of a footer for basically the one line of data I'd otherwise want from this bot.

Very cool. I would also recommend Wikipedia’s perennial news list as a source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/…/Perennial_sources

Rooki OP ,
@Rooki@lemmy.world avatar

It will be a little bit difficult to automate fetching that list.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Could just hardcode it and let the community voice their opinions on additions/changes

While I think the current method is a great idea, there’s already people complaining

I guess “consumer pullback” is one way to describe what’s going on with the economy…

solsangraal ,

and “consumer saying ‘hey waitaminute, i don’t actually need half the bullshit they’re telling me i can’t live without…’”

Telodzrum ,

The headline uses that term because consumer spending, across the economy as a whole, is up and a healthy amount. The “pullback” appears to be in select subsectors where price increases have drastically outstripped core inflation and/or specific companies who have done so without regard for competitors’ pricing.

hydrospanner ,

Thank you.

It shouldn’t (still) surprise me, but it always does…when people do drastically misunderstand or misinterpret economic information.

reflectedodds , in McDonald’s earnings, revenue miss estimates as consumer pullback worsens

The shareholders probably care, but to the layman, expecting 6.61 billion and only earning 6.49 billion doesn’t amount to much. They’re not going anywhere.

kate ,

as a shareholder i also do not care

kate ,

i had mcdonald’s for lunch today and was surprised how expensive it is now tbh. i know there’s no £1 cheese burger anymore but how is it £1.79

reddig33 ,

As a shareholder you should be concerned about high prices, poor service, and filthy stores. Not sure why anyone would want to pay a premium for their product when there are much better options for the same prices.

kate ,

more concerned with how the large fries box seems half empty every time now 😡😡😡

Zink , in Olympic Organizers to Christians: Sorry You Feel Butthurt

I saw a distant acquaintance of mine complaining online as soon as it happened. Something about the drag last supper being a direct attack on their way of life.

It had everything. Persecution complex. America is the whole world. Bigotry. Anger.

clearedtoland , in Media Bias Fact Check - Automation

Love this! There are a couple of extensions that do similar around the web but something similar for social circles was missing. Great solution.

Boddhisatva , in The Nation’s First Law Protecting Against Gift Card Draining Has Passed. Will It Work?

An estimated $570 billion is loaded onto gift and prepaid cards each year in the United States

Holy crap, I had no idea that so many people buy these stupid things. My mother used to buy them. She’d give Visa $5 in order to give me a $100 gift card. I told her she was wasting her money and she should just write me a check but she just kept doing it.

Based on the fee schedule at this site, that 5% fee is normal. That means these companies are making $28.5 billion per year providing no useful service at all.

thesohoriots ,

Starbucks had 1.2 billion USD held on Starbucks cards/the app back in 2016, “enough to be a midsize bank,” and I can only imagine it’s gone up since.

MagicShel , in McDonald’s earnings, revenue miss estimates as consumer pullback worsens

I don’t care other than economy is a powerful predictor of election outcome. I think we are due for a market contraction, and I’ve been out of work for 4 months, but I’m hoping it can hold on for another quarter.

Track_Shovel ,

Best of luck finding work.

I’m with you, in that I smell a recession. I don’t think it will be cataclysmic, but we have a lot of things pointing to some shrinkage:

Consumers are unhappy with greedflation

Housing is fucking expensive and no one has extra cash on hand

Multiple reports of a large percentage people not being able to make bills or worried about making them.

CobblerScholar ,

Not to mention the mounds of debt people are dragging around that they are unable to pay off

Track_Shovel ,

My mound is small, but it certainly weighs on me. I can’t imagine how people worse off would feel.

Telodzrum ,

Consumer spending continues to show growth and be positive. This is a McDonald’s and fast food generally contraction due to the industry’s greed – pricing of fast food has outstripped actual inflation drastically.

SatansMaggotyCumFart , in McDonald’s earnings, revenue miss estimates as consumer pullback worsens

Last time I went to McDonalds it was almost as much as a decent pub burger.

Why wouldn’t I just go there and get twice the quality unless I was close by and totally pressed for time?
