You know they’re up to no good and rotten to the core.
This makes it to easy for him with no qualified citizen running. Qualified would no longer waist their time on this leftist group is the problem. They’re going to have to crash and burn no matter who wins, just a matter of how bad.
Data from S&P Global Market Intelligence shows that 71 major U.S. companies filed for bankruptcy in July 2025. This marks the highest monthly total for large-company filings since July 2020.
Why bankruptcies are rising
Several factors have contributed to the increase in corporate bankruptcies in 2025:
High interest rates: Following numerous rate hikes by the Federal Reserve in 2022 and 2023, businesses are finding that higher borrowing costs are straining their finances.
Inflation: Persistent inflation continues to put pressure on corporate bottom lines.
Tariff uncertainty: Recent tariffs have created an unstable operating environment, especially for companies in the consumer discretionary and industrial sectors.
Increased competition and debt: Retailers, in particular, have faced stiff competition and have been forced to grapple with rising debt.
Companies affected
While not all 71 companies from July 2025 are public, high-profile bankruptcy filings this year have included:
23andMe: The genetics testing company filed for bankruptcy in March 2025.
Del Monte Foods: The canned food giant filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July, citing issues with excess inventory and rising interest costs.
Forever 21: The retailer filed for Chapter 11 for the second time in March 2025, with plans to close all its U.S. stores.
Claire’s: The accessories retailer filed for its second bankruptcy in seven years, citing increased competition and tariff pressures.
The broader context
The rise in bankruptcies is a notable economic indicator for 2025:
Year-to-date high: As of July 2025, the 446 large-company bankruptcy filings represent the highest total for the first seven months of the year since 2010.
Surpassing recent years: The 2025 year-to-date total has already exceeded the full-year bankruptcy totals for 2021 and 2022.
Across various sectors: While concentrated in the industrial and consumer discretionary sectors, the bankruptcies span many parts of the economy, including healthcare
First thing that comes to mind is check with Edgar or sec filings. If the average citizen is piling in to to index funds but the companies they track are selling are the company insiders selling their shares into the buying? Who’s selling and why. Would you put it past them to be sneaky?
If anyone needs to be isolated in Europe and UK it’s the invaders. Not worth talking to just get them out. They’re sending their worst.
They just up and said it in this protest. They really believe they are being invited there by the traitors under direction of the Islamic UN??? to turn the UK and EU into a Islamic state.
Why are you flying the English flag in England says the migrant. It’s no longer your country you know, About a minute.
Watching the weather right now. Tornado warnings going on in the south.
The mark of the beast going on in AI.
It’s already starting and ding bats are writing these programs. Have you ever tried to pay a bill with their talking AIs? They just make things more complicated and cost more time. It was fine the way it was before and they want to record everyone’s voice. What happens if something happens to their voice and hard to talk on top of it. No other option.
I heard from someone today they went to a restaurant and were served by a robot. The only way you can stop that is to not go there and let them know that’s the reason.
I heard a lot of these businesses in the stock market have been doing a lot of buy backs. That businesses are NOT doing as well as the media is making them out.
Yes I’m familiar with him and know he’s one of the good guys I just never went to his sight before. From what your saying he’s not saying anything I don’t already know. I fear for the future of the young. They need to start climbing the ladders. Learn as much as they can, in anything they can and learn to put on different hats they may need to survive and that no job is beneath them if need be temporarily just in case. Get as high as they can but not so fast their blind, it’s easier to go down than up, stay in groups or teams if needed, a flood is coming, it’s already here.
They’re inflatables. Highlighting the epidemic, the desperation, of loneliness, really. Kunstler is a good writer, as amals says.
Society changes. Eventually the norms change, and people accept isolation as normal. Everyone is isolated, they say, so it’s ok if I am too. Most people just want to be normal. Or at least to appear normal. That doesn’t make it natural, though. We are naturally a social being, we cannot survive without cooperating with others. Accepting your isolation as normal is ensuring your doom.
The article has nothing to do with porno. The only thing the lead picture was about was an example of how nuts AI has become. Kunstler is a very good and insightful writer. It’s a good article, believe me. Read it on a computer if you can if it’s difficult to read on your phone. Or don’t if you don’t want to, but it is not porno and not a waste of your time if you get the chance to read it easily. It’s only one page. Others on this board have linked to Kunstler many times. He’s one of the good guys, trust me.

Personally, I think a bounce here will be met with a complex corrective c – wave in November (to complete a flat) … followed by something more substantial in December … and the New Year.
The rally was defined by the Gold/Silver Ratio (GSR) decline that lasted 6 months … ending a few weeks back.
Given the move looks like a crash … where the nutbars in charge are accelerating fiscal needs … and no amount of taxation would ever cover this largess … currency debasement is set to surge … so what this means is while the correction in the GSR could take a historical sector signatured three months (50%) of the time … there is likely a better than even chance it could only take a month (16%) or two (32%) to trace out … putting completion time within the year no matter.
So wave a is done … b should come soon … perhaps with heightened unrest associated with the government shutdown … and then c … perhaps associated with broader equity weakness … who knows?
Looks to me like da boyz aren’t going to let the stock market fall in any meaningful way before they get their bonuses in December.
the shares bottoming out and turning higher first with the metals to follow.
Maybe they’ll let us off the Fed hook. Or maybe that’s why we got clobbered the last week.
Captain – If gold falls 10% in 6 days and it gets 8.9% back in 2 months, is that winning?? How is that a “generational” buying opportunity? I’m confused.

BREAKING – The House Oversight Committee has declared all of Joe Biden’s autopen pardons and executive actions null and void, releasing a 100-page report calling on the DOJ to launch a full investigation into the legality of Biden’s pardons and executive actions.

Gold has violently plummeted by over 10% in the past six days and yet this chart reveals the last 10 times this has happened, gold has risen 8.9% in the next 2 months.
H/T SUBUTRADE FOR CHART
Gold has plummeted by over 10% in the past six days, a violent correction that has shaken the conviction of even the most ardent bulls. But as Mark Twain famously said, “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.”
The historical data provides a powerful and compelling reason to believe that this crash, far from being the end of the bull market, is actually a generational buying opportunity.
As the chart above illustrates, this is not the first time gold has experienced such a dramatic selloff. In fact, over the past 40 years, there have been 10 prior instances where gold has fallen by more than 10% in a six-day period. The results that followed have been nothing short of spectacular.
Musk’s Anti-Woke Grokipedia Has Landed – Hosts 900,000 Articles On Day 1
Elon Musk’s anti-woke alternative to Wikipedia — an aspiration he announced less than a month ago — went live on Monday, with “Grokipedia” already boasting nearly 900,000 articles by the end of its first day. “The goal of Grok and Grokipedia.com is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. We will never be perfect, but we shall nonetheless strive towards that goal,” Musk wrote on X, referring to the launch-day Grokipedia as Version 0.1, and promising that “Version 1.0 will be 10X better.”
Metals have been recovering albeit slowly for the last couple of hours, but more impressively the shares have improved since the 4 am EST pre-market open.
I’ve got nothing more than a hunch, and gold looks stubborn, but it’s been a brutal down leg in a raging bull market. We’ll see.
