A funny thing is happening as I regain parts of my life as a result of receiving #HBOT after a 14 month battle with #LongCovid. While I'm incredibly grateful to be one of the lucky ones who found a treatment they respond to I'm also trying to come to terms with the possibility
That some of the damage maybe permanent. For example the other day I was taking the boat out after a spin up the river, there is a winch on the stern that keeps the boat on the trailer. I couldn't figure out how it works. I've been using those winches for years. Literally like
Second nature to me. It operates in such a way as you have to have several things lined up so it will tighten properly. Not matter what I did I could not put the pieces together. #Brainfog means I am unable to do tasks which require multiple areas of focus.
CPI Preview vs Realized CPI
1. #CPI data came out largely in line with our expectations. Our expectations were for a print of 0.17%, while the print came in at 0.10%. Below, we show the composition of our estimates relative to the realized print:

2. Our pre-view note mentioned two factors we would be watching out for. First, we were looking to see whether #motor vehicle inflation remains persistent.
3. Given the industry dynamics we monitor, there was a potential for new cars to see deflation as manufacturing productions alleviate some degree of supply shortages. Nonetheless, #used car inflation likely showed significant potential to re-accelerate this month.
#ES flirted with 4,115 again after that great intraday $HYG reversal portended downside #volatility when cyclicals didn‘t really point higher.

#LoanOfficers and #Realtors continue to butcher the #TaxSavings conversation regarding having a mortgage. When they do, they usually make it appear bigger than it really is which misleads the buyer.

Here is how the calculation really works:

Here is how the calculation really works:
The Standard Deduction means you do NOT pay income tax on the first $13,850 earned as a single taxpayer or $27,700 for a married couple.
If your write-offs exceed those limits, you receive an additional tax refund, as your payroll providers do not consider this.
If your write-offs exceed those limits, you receive an additional tax refund, as your payroll providers do not consider this.
An easy way to calculate the mortgage deduction is to deduct the SALT (State and Local Tax) limit of $10k from the standard deduction. SALT is essentially your state income tax and property tax. In high-cost markets, you can assume the $10k will be met with those two fees.
Today’s #CPI report continues to depict #inflation that is just too high for most people’s good, especially the @federalreserve’s.
In fact, the report showed that #inflation remains remarkably sticky, which doesn’t correspond to virtually any practical thinker’s timeline of when it might be expected to start to come down further.
These elevated levels of inflation continue to be remarkably high relative to the many months with which the #economy has now operated with persistently higher #InterestRates.

When I (would) describe what most elected officials do for #Homeless people, I (would) say that they do as much as their constituents will let them get away with. Today won't be the case with @CMWhitburnD3 at the behest of @MayorToddGloria
today's discussion about amendments to the @CityofSanDiego's Municipal Code Related to Unauthorized Camping or Encampments on Public Property should be condemned
Whitburn is following the lead of his #NIMBY constituents when they won't allow any small measure to relieve the suffering of their #neighbors

🧵 Poilievre's #misinformation saying the federal govt has done nothing on #housing is bogus. #Housingsupply is a primarily a Provincial & Municipal issue. During 2022 the federal govt has taken significant steps towards making housing more affordable for Canadians including:
#Budget2023 announces that financial institutions will be able to start offering the Tax-Free #FirstHomeSavingsAccount to Canadians as of April 1, 2023.
#Budget2023 announces the government's intention to support the reallocation of funding from the National Housing Co-Investment Fund's repair stream to its new construction stream, as needed, to boost the construction of new affordable homes for the Canadians who need them most
This picture is a perfect representation of the current #housing situation in Arlington: a NIMBY w/ their yellow "NO" signs trying to reserve the entire space around them to keep others out. 1 person taking up an area meant for 6. #MissingMiddle

Today’s #JobsReport was very solid, but like is often the case in the movies, it’s very hard for the sequel (today’s report) to match such an unexpected hit (January’s revised 504,000 jobs gained).
Still, a nonfarm #payroll gain of 311,000 jobs is quite good and having 815,000 jobs created so far this year after the #economy has already created 12 million #jobs over the past two years is pretty amazing in its own right.
Further, the 3-month moving average of 351,000 jobs, after a 12-month moving average of 362,000 jobs gained per month is also pretty remarkable, particularly after the market-implied pricing of the terminal #FedFunds rate has move up 500 basis points (bps) in a year.
“Some don’t work. It’s very important to find out at an early stage which ones they are.” This was particularly the case where “someone overpaid for the land & think(s) they can get that money back from the council”

The #BuildToRent policy introduced by @MurphyEoghan & the SHD policy introduced by @simoncoveney didn’t “encourage developers to build more homes” they set up a framework where 1. more bad units could fit in any site & 2. 100+ unit schemes could skip normal planning processes.

This became a feeding frenzy. Developers and investment funds purchased large land banks in prime urban locations as the potential of fitting a lot of tiny rental units close to well served locations (big rents) meant land values went up up up.

@PierrePoilievre's dishonest and shameful 'blame it all on Trudeau' campaign for things the PM does not control rages on. In fact, the PM does not control #foodpricing, #fueloilpricing, #rentpricing, #mortgagepaymentpricing or #interestrates in Canada.
IMO @PierrePoilievre 's dishonourable rhetoric on rising food, gas, oil prices, interest rates & rents is evidence of intent to deceive.
Why doesn't the media challenge him to provide alternative proposals instead of publishing his attacks on Trudeau for things he can't control?

1- Market #rents will keep retracing in the coming months. Household formation and rental demand are slowing in response to macro conditions while #housing supply will gain traction, with a peak expected around 4Q23.
*The collision of these factors will probably result in a contraction of market #rents on a YoY basis at some point next year. In the past, the CPI’s measure of rents for homeowners has typically lagged other measures (9 to 12 months looks appropriate for this cycle).
