The logical place for AI in a company is at the top. Replace the CFO, CEO ect. After all AI,s strong suit is making logical decisions and with 1 job cut the company could save hundreds of millions.

Some healthcare is cutting jobs due to some states recently requiring minimum staffing levels.
Since they can't meet that, they reduce the number of beds they are filling.
Therefore, overall they don't need the staff.

How does the mass exodus out of the US effect that....the unpaid patients without getting into the p's
I never thought of that but it makes perfect sense. Likely a huge factor.

ERs are supposedly much emptier now. I can tell you in my travels to migrant heavy areas, the difference in Walmart crowds is noticeable.

Probably less tourists.
Some people are broke and can’t afford to spend money for vacations….. some are people from out of town avoiding Florida and orange guy.

Petty I know but......
Got a friend that calls me once in awhile to talk investing
He tells me of his scores and I tell him that's great and to keep it going.
I'm sincere in that respect...
Now he asks me and I tell him what I'm in and how I did and he poo poos what I'm doing and sighs with disapproval. I am the one who got him started 6 years ago
The next week he calls me boasting about his scores and they are exactly the ones I told him about that he poo poo'd....
I'm no longer talking the market with him.

You're free to fail if you so choose. We are part of the animal kingdom, no guarantees other than no one starves to death which is a big plus and never used to be that way in the history of mankind.

Yes, the older I get the less the "chaff" bothers me.
Economies are and will be cyclical. The past few years have been on an incredible upswing; a downturn is inevitable.
This is why I am a long term planner and practice diversification.
Contingency planning for the win!
I have to agree, how can anyone argue with an average of 50% increase in the value of stocks over the last three years that POSSIBLY things might slow down? I mean, that is an INSANE increase. It begs for a overall correction and might actually be healthy.
Gloom and doom in the media is for advertising revenue and the media knows throughout mankind's modern history we love to read and hear misery. Proof = How many happy news stories do we see in the headlines even though the good in mankind far outweigh the bad and despair.
AG, as you know, the stock market is highly related to the economy but is not the economy. Also, the market is dominated by the big boys so it is hardly a good economy metric. Tesla is the perfect example; is it that much better than the rest of the automobile market? Of course not. Stocks are not up 50%; probably closer to 15% but that is still a great number.
To keep the employment numbers so high is simply unrealistic. Winners and losers. My thing is, what will AI do to our economy and the world beyond? Silicon Valley High Tech will likely continue to explode while other areas and economies may struggle to keep pace.
Time will tell. My chrystal ball is no clearer than anyone else's. But market cap is dominated by tech.
The Dow Jones, NASDAQ, S&P 500 are all up in the 50% range over the last three years.
Easy to verify.
I’ll give you a head start.
Here is the Dow for the last three years, exactly a 50% gain, and as I posted the others too
However, as I posted, individual stocks, such as one of my favorites META are 100s percent in the last three years as well as WMT and Amazon
Those are indicies, not the market.
