If you need fuel, get it today

Well the QT in Powdersville was out of gas this morning according a friend.
 
I read it did poorly due to Elon and his SNL skit.

Not sure how one man can influence a stock like he does legally
I oddly thought the same thing during the Game Stop/Crypto run earlier in the year but when you think about it, he's no worse than a Kramer on CNBC or even a Mark Cuban for example if he openly said he was buying Exxon and it was about to make a huge run.

What they need to investigate though is if these on-line influencers with tons of followers have any affiliation with hedge funds, asset managers, broker dealers etc or they have a large position that stands to gain from retail driven volatility. Some of these "crusaders" are very likely taking money from wall street to influence stock picks.

Learned something new today. Last year I noticed that the range on my SUV dropped 60 miles for no apparent reason. I keep up the maintenance very well. Then today, I managed to get 3 gallons of gas after the auto stop on the pump kicked in. I kept squeezing the trigger to get more and ended up pumping an extra 3 gallons. That's 60 miles right there.

So this got me thinking. Did something happen where the government made all theses pumps kick off sooner or was it the ethanol that makes them kick off sooner. About a year ago, Colonial Pipeline changed their spec to accept up to 15 percent ethanol in the pipeline. Mostly what you get is 10 percent. Before that ethanol was added at the tank farm in Charlotte and you paid for that additive. Today if you want ethanol free, you need to go to a special gas station that buys if from port of Charleston because ethanol free doesn't come from the pipeline anymore.
 
Market raised min wage a long time ago.... unskilled labor isn’t the issue some think it is.
On my journey thru the mechanical engineering program at Clemson, I took economics and got As in micro and macro. The concept seemed logical to me. The minimum wage is a price floor and creates unemployment. That is, the demand curve slopes down. Why is this so difficult for people to understand?
 
Supply chains are hard. Just in time deliverables got hosed by the Texas freeze.
