Since Trump started the war sales and refi assignments have practically stopped. REOs are the only thing on my desk.

It should be moved (I'm not the forum police). But my car is sitting in the garage because even though the US produces 104 million barrels a day (I'm might not have that right) and consumption is only 100 million barrels a day, world wide, I'm afraid of running out of gas. if the Straights of HerMoose are said to be closed, the oil traders can make up a years worth of profit in one day and no one is going to stop them. I heard the cow guy say, "You can't buy a barrel of oil today, at any price." I asked AI about that it said, no, oil is traded every day. Then I asked about being stopped out and it said it is just a misconception that is common. I think because oil is fungible that qualifies it as a conundrum

It's always a rough day when HerMoose is closed.
 
My Data Collection Biz is way down. Dam Trump.
 
Maybe I should rephrase the question. Is anyone else’s business down because people are nervous about the war and delaying purchases and refi decisions? It’s happened in the previous wars.

Haven't noticed any yet. I think it's still a little too soon to tell.
 
Insane week - $4K+. Just today, got over $2K in orders - just for the rest of the week. BIG $$$ orders. Its Bully down here I tell you - JUST BULLY!!!!

PS. That life-size bronze of Col T. Roosevelt on his horse stands just behind the Alamo, facing the Menger Hotel - where Col Roosevelt stayed and even recruited some of his Rough Riders as they trained at nearby Ft Sam Houston for the Cuban Expedition in 1898 ...
