ICE

Housing’s always impossible to predict. It’s possible (in fact, entirely confirmed) that “dirty money” infiltrated the real estate market really hard after 2008. Shell companies, private equities, foreign oligarchs, you name it. Putin indirectly owns US properties. Hell, most of his round circle had(has?) luxury condos in the Trump Tower. It isn’t hard to connect the dots. State laws make it legal to buy property with a shell company. It was up to the FBI, CIA and ICE(!) to investigate these potential conflicts of US interests, but those departments have been re-assigned to boogey-man causes. To get even more depressed, we can consider that these Saudi/Russian/Chinese shell companies possibly got huge PPO stimulus packages in 2020, and bought even more houses since they are the most tangible and secure place to park money (especially with the USD seeing huge inflation).. So from that angle… yes, housing became a portfolio chip for giant players. Now the dollar keeps losing value. But stagflation is on the horizon. Either way, even if housing drops 50% in the next 5Y in some awful employment crash, in the 10Y cycle, housing is a generally secure asset. And rent sees inflation at its own pace… sometimes completely inverse of mortgage rates. Once the average post-2021 mortgage and rent catch up to each other, the housing market ought to spike again. Especially since building is going to see a hard freeze in the next few years.

PrettyFlyForALawGuy

Must be about when South Korea tried to invest money into a Georgia factory but then the ICE gorillas paraded them around in chains so now all those investments have been canned.

reddog323

Puts on the US for now, until ICE gets their shit together, if at all.

Apprehensive_Rub3897

When they're welcomed back with a red carpet, if they come back at all, the people in the community will still treat them like shit. Getting raiding by ICE was making official what they've all experienced personally, millions of racist micro aggressions. Plus I bet the food was pretty bad, especially if your native Korean. If we see SK at the next meeting with Xi Jinping, Putin, and Modi what then?

Usual-Comedian-9206

Everyone knows about the Hyundai ICE raid by now, right? JMFC smh

penguincheerleader

Hyundai was building an electric car factory in Georgia and ICE locked up and arrested over 400 contractors, who were then sent back to South Korea. Hyundai has said best case scenario is they are delayed a year in opening up the factory, but of course there is a lot of pressure on them now not to open it at all.

VonnyVonDoom

He can keep that sh*t. The fuck would want to bring their workers here so they can be targeted and locked away by the ICE gestapo? 

GeeBee72

Yep, nobody can trust the dysfunctional government, even if Trump says it, someone like Gnome (sic) and her ICE posse can just be dumb and round up a bunch of skilled labor and toss ‘em into purgatory. If it wasn’t for that dummy Tori going all public about how ‘awesome’ she is, do you think those guys would be back in S. Korea, or still stuck in some cell somewhere?

IBJON

Well that'll help put us ahead of China in the EV industry /s It's almost like blindly sending ICE after immigrants and visa workers is a horrible idea

Possible-Rush3767

Basically, ICE raided a factory and pissed off South Korea by imprisoning a bunch of their citizens in inhumane conditions so now they're threatening to back out of building in the US. It's his fault, but he won't take accountability. 

Hairy_Muff305

ICE ICE baby, sounds like there was an unwanted leopard face meeting.

Techchick_Somewhere

Uh, is he talking like about how South Korea brought their experts to teach the American workers how to run their battery factory, except then some Representative of the State actually called ICE on them and now South Korea is actually killing the plant all together? Puts on the U.S.?

rdrias

The other day I saw on the news that an Irish woman with a green card, married to an American, was jailed by ICE when entering the US after a trip to Ireland, because she had a check bounce 10 years ago. (Look it up, I think it want in the Guardian). I now know what Palantir does.

Bewbonic

Well there are *many* civilians in the US. They could spend a trillion and it still wouldnt matter if there was a proper revolution, unless they plan on nuking american cities (which seems a little unlikely), just from the sheer number of people involved. They absolutely want to assert authoritarian dominance over the population though to make sure when shit gets *real bad* for the masses (coming soon), those masses will have already seen the show of force against existing 'dissenters', and so feel too afraid to stand up for fear of reprisal. Other than deploying the national guard and other military, having a highly funded internal control force that only answers directly to the maga fanatics in charge (like ICE) is how they are planning to do that.

Thencewasit

What’s there to fix with unemployment ? It’s at 4.3%.  There have never been more jobs in the US than right now. 7 million open jobs.  More coming every day as ICE removes illegal workers.  Numbers won’t look rosy for GDP, but it won’t be an employment problem.

TechnicianExtreme200

It's pretty obvious why the stock has had this recent spike.Trump's ICE just caused an international incident with Tesla's main competition in the US. Which will likely deter other foreign competitors from manufacturing in the US. Not sure why this connection isn't being made more.

TLDR: **Buy $GEO,** the #1 private prison and mental health facility operator in the country, ahead of Pres. Trump's decisive actions and new policies/funding initiatives against repeat criminal offenders and aliens. I strongly believe the stock will easily triple from here, and could very well be our next $OPEN. Guys, I’m sure we all know the awful and tragic situations involving Charlie Kirk and that young pretty Ukrainian lady recently. Charlie Kirk was a beloved husband and father. The sweet girl came to America and worked a regular job at a pizza restaurant (super rare I know, considering how easy it is to be an OF whore nowadays). They deserve all the good things in life right? And they had it good. But next thing you know, their lives were taken away by some fucking monsters.... The worst part is: **THERE ARE MANY OF THEM OUT THERE.** I couldn't stop asking myself "What if that happened to my loved ones?". We must prevent these kinda incidents from ever happening again, full stop. We have an obvious solution: the police do amazing jobs arresting these felons; we just have to keep them in jail. Thankfully, with all these announcements and press releases from politicians, from Pres. Trump to Senators from both the left and right, I think we're at a turning point. Trump himself has signalled the intent to launch sweeping crackdowns on repeat offenders, with proposals for mandatory minimums and tighter parole standards already in motion. Immigration enforcement will intensify, with expanded detention capacity, faster deportation proceedings, and stricter border controls forming the backbone of new initiatives. With tougher sentencing guidelines, stricter enforcement on repeat offenders, and heightened immigration control, private prisons are positioned to see a surge in demand as public facilities face capacity strains. GEO is the best private prison and mental health facility operator in the country. GEO doubled after Trump was elected, but recently got back to election day levels, despite an evolution fundamentally that bulls could have only wished for. Arrests and detention numbers at all-time highs, ICE officers rising 50%, ATD prioritizing higher cost ankle monitoring, ICE budget is tripling. The administration is filled with former GEO employees and lobbyists, from the border czar Tom Homan to the AG Pam Bondi. Thanks to their recent state prison sale, they've even delevered and introduced a buyback sooner than I expected. Despite all this, the market doesn't seem to appreciate the uncertainty and lack of current earnings inflection. With ICE only receiving their new budget funds later this month, seems premature to give up on it to me.

***What are some thoughts on how this might play out..........*** The weekly jobless numbers came into today sorta high at 263,000 jobless claims. First time above 250,000 weekly loss jobs since 2021. But CPI inflation was still under control at 2.9%. What does this mean & what will happen? **First the stock market is not the ecomony.** The stock market had a broad rally today across all sectors and all market caps because of the bad news with jobless claims. **The bad news was good news to the stock market.** This bad news will force the Federal reserve to lower interest rate next week, so the job market doesn't fall apart. The Fed Reserve meeting on 9/17/25, next week will probably lower interest rates because the job market is degrading. The stock market already has this bake in today with the rally and might not rally on this action next week. Unless the rate cut is 0.5% versus expected 0.25% cut from 4.5 to 4.25%. Mortgage rates 30 year have already declined to 6.47% from 6.9% and should boost the housing market. I think the fed will do 3 rate cuts downs at 0.25% each to 3.75% before the end of the year and they will monitor what happens with Trumps tariffs action or inaction. The blue collar job market might be improving as illegal immigrant are self-deporting or force deported by ICE. The white collar jobs are alreay being replace by Ai software. Americans are replacing the immigrants leaving the USA. New manufacturing is relocating back to USA to aviod tariffs. The tariffs are another wild card and so far hasn't cause a major disruption or inflation surge. The stock market is a forward looking type and reacts more on the news rather the actual event, such as the day of the rate cut. The rally already happen today with the DOW +617 and NasDaq +157. So the rate cut is already baked into the market today and not next week. Good luck investing.

Suspicious-Pick3722

Fake news! He’s sending in ICE to eliminate the last few

somethingbytes

They're not going to. People aren't delaying hiring because of rates, they're not hiring because of instability. No one know what will happen with tariffs, no one knows what trump will defund next. Oh, and at the end of September we might have a government shutdown. You have ICE attacking immigrants that work in farmers fields, people bought into AI but are realizing the returns aren't what they thought, and foreigners don't want to come here. So, yeah... interest rates don't fix any of that, but it will devalue the dollar and increase inflation. The US threw out of potential for... reasons. Who knows if that potential will remain if we're ever allowed to have a new president again.

Sea-Level-3538

I would be shocked if the US actually hosts the World Cup. Between the violence and ICE raids, few counties want to send their most talented young athletes into this insane asylum of a country.

Appropriate_Beat2618

ICE doesn't seem to make any difference there. Speaks Spanish or looks Hispanic? Must be an illegal. Why not deport actual illegal immigrants then, like Elon Musk for example? Aaah because of - you guessed it - money! Look up some stats like happiness index, HDI or whatever. Your greatest country in the world isn't anywhere near the top 10 but there are mostly these bad European countries. I wonder why. I've spent enough time arguing some online right wing rando so have a good life, move to the USA maybe, you're a good fit it seems.

Looks like ICE deported all the inflation too

1UpUrBum

SPGI ICE CME NDAQ MSCI They make money off volume.

IAmOneGuessFromRich

TL;DR: I disagree. But not with the points, as much as how we arrive to them. Also, while I do believe the next 5-10 years are going to be absolutely fucking miserable, I think in the end we will all come our senses. And by all, I mean half the liberals who finally realize we don’t need to move center right to win elections, the 30% who didn’t bother to participate in the election at all, and about half of MAGA who finally wake up from the cult dream. Also, I’m an idiot. Also, release the fucking Epstein files. ——————————————————- 1. Happening. 2. Economic collapse won’t be from people not wanting to work, it will be from continued wage gap increase between the hyper wealthy and the working class, pay wage decrease vs cost of living/devaluing of the dollar, leading to extreme debt/poverty, and eventually work camps/indentured servitude. Especially as the oligarchs continue to hoard wealth and continue to increase their role in the government. 3. Immigration? What? He’s totally off the mark here. The fascists do not like immigrants, thus ICE/gestapo in the streets. Again. See point two. They don’t need immigrants for workers. Also, the immigrants that are being imprisoned in concentration camps in the US now will be working for free just like people in our prison system sooner than later. 4. Civil War. I mean yeah, but not because of immigrants taking jobs. It will be when the working class finally realizes all the bullshit talking points by the left and the right are just to keep us fighting against each other instead of recognizing that the real war is the class war. The workers revolt, they are labeled terrorists by the government, insurgency ensues, before eventually full on rebellion. Or maybe, though less likely, some of these governors of states finally stop allowing the federal government to illegal detain and arrest their citizens and a battle ensues with a clash of states vs federal government. 5. Forever wars are an end result if the fascist take over cannot be stopped. This is the 1984 come to full life. While one could argue we’ve already been engaged in forever wars, i.e., the Middle East, it hasn’t reached full potential. At this point there are still voices of dissent. The final form of this would be no ability to speak out about it negatively without serious punishment. We’re almost there. This one doesn’t necessarily have to fall to fifth. It can happen at any time in this process. This of course all relies on good people doing nothing and allowing evil to succeed. While I think we are on the brink, I still have a hard time believing it will come to fruition. It’s going to get pretty dark here for a minute or two, but once the full grip of MAGA is fucking over everyone equally, regardless of how they voted, it could very well drive the working class to unite. And if the republicans and democrats have shown us anything, it’s that they will cower like little bitches when they sense a real threat. So there’s that.

Toyota has been around 70yrs longer and sells far more types of cars, including hybrids and ICE options. They didn’t make any all-electric vehicles until 2022, actually. Not really a good comparison at all.

Regardless of that figure is accurate, and I personally doubt it, the topic is of how long to keep a car. Whether EV or ICE, and most cars sold in China and Saudi Arabia are still ICE anyway, do you think it’s better to be dumping a car after four or five years? Do you buy a new shirt if the old one is fine? Where does the old car go? Just throw it away? “Oh, just sell it to third world countries”. If the argument is about pollution only, then the old car is polluting just as much, and you’ve also made car which is also polluting, as well as the manufacturing environmental cost.

Robj2

Are tariffs and ICE Gestapo the magic wand now to wave away all economic numbers and norms? You need to send this to Fox News; they'll run with it.

Django117

Yeah that’s the fucking point. All the shit that Trump is doing now via executive orders is just going to be a liability for the federal government. (And the taxpayer down the road). So yeah the reason they did this is to try and make a massive bill for fixing it so that they punish the American taxpayer for fixing the fuck-up. Like who do you think pays out when the US gov gets sued for illegally deporting and detaining people? Not Trump, not ICE, not the GOP. Just you, the taxpayer.

rupert1920

>Artificially supporting demand with rebates is plenty to lower up front costs and lower manufacturing costs needed to be recouped, to end users and manufacturers respectively. But regulatory credits also add costs to ICE, which is their other purpose.

rupert1920

It's just two separate ways to encourage EV adoptions. Don't see how it's "double dipping" - it's as if you subsidize farming, and also remove taxes on groceries - you have a mechanism to help reduce costs on the industrial side, and another one to directly help on the consumer side. EVs have a higher up front environmental cost, period. But they enable environmental benefits throughout the lifetime of the vehicle over ICE.

Cease-the-means

Oh I know.. I found myself looking at private prisons like Core Civic who will receive billions from ICE, but decided that wasn't a cool thing to invest in.

lurker165473

Is it possible that ICE deportations drive down jobs numbers? Or is the counting system smart enough to not count illegals with jobs?

Ambitious_Arm852

Sounds like Korean foreign ministry did a great thing by chartering a flight to bring these men and women home. Horrifying to think they would be detained indefinitely while ICE reviews their "paperwork"

Ancient-Stock-3261

Classic case of policy swing giving old-school autos a breather. Sure, it saves near-term costs, but longer run EV adoption isn’t slowing down. Market’s gonna reward whoever balances ICE profits with EV investments smartly.

is ICE going after autists after illegals? what will happen to my holdings

WickedSensitiveCrew

When the IPO market is hot, the consistent way to play it is through the investment banks and underwriters – Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley (MS), JPMorgan (JPM), etc. They earn fees every time they bring a company public, so they’re the real picks-and-shovels of IPO activity. You could also include the exchanges (Nasdaq: NDAQ, NYSE/ICE) since they benefit from listings and higher trading volumes. BX and APO are in a different lane. They can benefit indirectly if their portfolio companies IPO successfully, but that’s lumpy and depends on timing. Their earnings are driven more by fundraising cycles, deal activity, and asset valuations than by whether the IPO calendar is hot in general.

easylife12345

My favorite coffee beans are up a lot at Costco. That’s definitely tariffs driven. At the same time, I buy a lot on amazon. I’m not really seeing that much of price increases so far. Energy costs are down. I drive electric, but my wife is still using ICE. I fill her car up each week - it costs less now. I also can’t raise rents on my tenants much this year. Market rates are pretty stable, and I live in a highly desirable area with with rent cap laws. During covid times, i was raising 8% a year. I’m in the camp that servicing the national debt will require printing, which is inflationary. Dollar has lost about 10% of its value this year, but so far, things are very stable & the market continues rising. Have to be along for the ride, until things change. GLTA

fngutie

ICE is going to deport this candle.

cyborg_elephant

Well not really. Theyre probably masked because of how they get targeted and doxxed constantly. Whether you agree with the deportations or not im sure you can agree that doxxing somebody you know will be targeted with violence is pretty scummy stuff. They are federal agents because thats literally what ICE is...a federal agency under the DHS. So its not really shady that theyre federal agents or that they are protecting their identity. Its literally just who they are and what their job is and trying to stay safe while doing it. As far as rounding people up...again thats sort of the nature of what ICE is. You might be able to argue that theyre casting too broad of a net or that the immigrants are owed more of a chance in court, but as far as the statement you've made it sounds ignorant and more like youre echoing the virtue signalling screeches of radicals than actually understanding the situation.

lipmanz

DeadbeatJohnson

Gosh, those ICE agents arresting all those Hyundai employees while they were trying to roll out that plant upgrade paid off. Total coincidence.

SwordfishDazzling455

Consider ICE and NDAQ. They are financial market exchanges. They make money when investments are bought and sold. Both are fairly valued right now but worth buying on any dip. Both are bringing new products to market and forming new partnerships around stable coin transactions. Both are sensitive to market instability but recover from media hype pretty quickly.

beerion

I agree that a crash early on could kill the prospects for the entire industry. >EVs aren't nearly as viable for ICE power sources when it comes to heavier than air flight. It's just an energy density thing. This is very true, but electric helps solve other problems. Noise and reliability are big advantages over combustion engines. Noise, alone, is a big reason helicopters aren't a common mode of transport, already. And electricity is cheaper than gas. So a more reliable powerplant and cheaper fuel will bring down operating costs immensely. And if they can scale (due to the low noise profile), that will help the unit Economics even more. Early on, it seems that they'll basically operate as point-to-point shuttles: like from Manhattan to neighboring airports. There are 11 million global trips to and from the airport each day (developed markets). In general, airports are located far outside of city centers. That's a big market segment right there. We'll have to see what exactly the air taxi segment looks like. Uber & Lyft provide 40 million rides per day. But air taxis won't be able to pick you up at your front door. It may take from current ride share services as well as create its own market: think pair-city day trips (LA to San Diego or NY to Philly) or "super" commuters (Montclair to Manhattan). If they can get landing fees down, the unit Economics won't be that much worse than ride share. Overall, I'm much more bullish on the industry than you are, but I'm definitely under no illusion that this will become part of our daily life any time soon.

paradox60660

Yeah, that Hyundai plant need new workers. It wasn't ice they were giving out it was ICE giving out free zip ties, one per undocumented worker.

cultoftheclave

well run business solid technical solid fundamentals, and the long story arc just gets better and better due to a positive feedback loop: the more hybrid and EV adoption takes hole, the more people need to keep their old ICE hoopties running themselves with fewer and fewer service shops around to work on them.

I mean, he sent ICE into the Hyundai plant to detain 450 South Koreans. So that is like 450 manufacturing jobs that opened up. He is bringing the jobs, just not the way people want.

[I work in the industry](https://i.imgur.com/rieNOMY.jpeg). I personally wouldn't invest in eVTOL stocks. If I felt like exposing myself to them I'd go the pick and shovel route and buy into companies selling battery and charging tech since that's more universal. And if I wanted to diversify into aero I'd look into rocketry. My main concern is there are TONS of regulations surrounding commercial civil aerospace and getting to a point where you're profitable in that world is incredibly difficult for new companies. A secondary concern is that to my knowledge (granted I haven't really done a ton of research into it) EVs aren't nearly as viable for ICE power sources when it comes to heavier than air flight. It's just an energy density thing. Until we get the battery storage tech that can over come that heavier than air EVs (especially VTOL) is going to struggle. A tertiary concern is how they plan on using them. Basically as taxies. Dense urban environments mean lots of traffic and buildings to potentially collide with. A crash or two early in the product life cycle and you absolutely kill any future this company may have even if the tech is there.

bigorangemachine

Send ICE to Tesla's plants LOL

D_Pablo67

I would stick with the individual stocks and sell VUG if that is just buying the same stocks as the bulk of your portfolio. You might want to look at some growth financial stocks like Goldman Sachs, Robinhood, NASDAQ (the exchange, not the ETF), and ICE. For diversification, buy some gold or gold miners, GLD or GDX. Let you winners run and use new buys to diversify.

sock_express34

Diversity isn’t in this guys language. He works for ICE for sure and soon Wendy’s

Ill_Ground_1572

No offense to that guy but they represent a fantastic step in the right direction but not a game changer. Solid state lithium batteries are still going to be super expensive; though outperforming current systems. Though, any companies that sell these improved batteries will certainly be excellent choices. But a real "game changer" would be new chemistry that uses Magnesium or especially Sodium. Super cheap widely available metals. Then factor in energy density (what I meant by battery weight). Something that could power a EV but the size of a larger ICE car battery. Or a phone that could last for a week. A solid state battery that uses sodium would definitely change the game. There is no doubt in my mind, within 15 years batteries will be crazy advanced because of the investments in basic research. But sadly the science isn't there yet where companies are commercializing this yet.

I've been told that the illegals were stealing our jobs, that China was stealing our industry, and that our statistics department didnt know how to count. Now that there is ICE, tarrifs and someone new for the statistics, the job numbers will definitely be good right ? **right ?**

Ah yes,retail, that industry famous for its required professional vetting of employees. Have you tried checking for a pulse instead? Also, most low-wage jobs like retail are obviously where most non-natives will wind up, so being 'vetted' by an AI system which ICE / law enforcement can access at any time is really just a race selector without calling it that. I'm sure it's gonna be great

With how much ICE has been around my local towns I wouldn’t be surprised if we see some cool numbers coming in soon

Depends on the parts they are making. We are on the verge of a major transition (ICE to EV) so if we are talking about engine parts, there might be a problem. But if we're talking about chairs, windshields, electrical controllers for windows etc.. then I don't expect anything to change.

Sundar will bring down the country with fraud because of ICE-FIGHT

He has the National Guard assisting ICE. He is merging the arm forces with the rest of Homeland Security... just like every other autocracy, oligarchy, and one party state does. I have lived in 3 such countries. They always have military on the ground, with the population, as that is the real risk in those countries.

Or ICE contractors. They are the loyalest.

Re-read it. My question was quite simply: What makes this one different & why does it stand out from the other 100 cases I hear of a year (and the 10000000 I don't)? \> None of those was targeting people only accused of smuggling drugs. Youre being obtuse but I think its intentional. \> Its like me asking how many people does the US execute for drug charges  The method was thru bombs & it likely was intentional - yes. So it was drug related... citizens of my own country have been killed by ICE recently - illegally kept inside detention centers. Kinda pissed my entire country off. America executes so many of their own citizens for drug related things... they even execute foreigners. see: ICE. It's a serious question - what is different about this one? \> dropping links to death penalty. Nah, I just dropped a link showing how frequently these events occur. Reality is I'm kinda numb to it hearing of people being killed every day. Injustices exist everywhere & when you have billions of people they're bound to happen every day
