PUNISHING heat wave Wednesday through July 4 in DC. NWS now forecasting highs of 104 Thursday, 105 Friday and 102 on July 4 -- all record highs. High indexes 5-8 degrees higher.

Just in time for the NWS outbreak too. OP you are a trye genius. Can i have some cattle? I’m in Texas
Exactly right about high performers hitting new highs continuously. This pattern shows up in weather prediction markets too - 55% of volume goes to exact temperature contracts where algorithmic traders exploit small timing advantages in NWS forecast updates. One trader, Hans323, made around $1.1 million on London temperature trades by getting in at precisely the right moments rather than waiting for "better" entry points. The key insight is that markets trending up tend to keep trending up, whether it's stocks or temperature forecasts. Waiting for pullbacks often means missing the move entirely.

A rose by any other name. At least with weather there’s science behind it (NWS daily climate reports), unlike sports
RMR and NWS...but i had it backwards. Sell the RMR and buy the NWS.
I thought this was because 3 companies have multiple tickers: - GOOGL / GOOG - FOXA / FOX - NWSA / NWS Which causes it to hold 503 **tickers**, but only 500 **companies**.
Good luck buddy. Just to be clear though I placed my bet yesterday on temps that were already recorded, not a prediction. Your bet should go up today assuming that the climate market gets more volume today. It's a new market that just released yesterday, so I think that's why I had such an edge. I assume more people will find out about it today though. I took a similar bet this morning, but if volume never kicks in then the play I made last night might actually happen again lol. I'll just be keeping an eye out on the volume, and if my odds increase even a little bit to where it should be I'm selling my play. Otherwise I'll wait until the NWS reports come out around 4pm today to see if I get another edge. GL
The bets for November 19 count for today yeah. The one I bet on yesterday was for the daily high of yesterday which was already recorded on the NWS by the time I saw the bet. I have no idea why the odds were so wildly different, but if it happens again today I'm doing it again lol
A lot more than you might think. Anyone doing military or homeland security work. That's a lot of people. FEMA. TSA. NWS/NOAA. Tons of people besides ATC. Neighbor is a civilian govt employee at a naval shipyard. Still has to work. They could furlough ICE, but won't.
New World Screw worm has also been spotted in a cow 70 miles from the U.S Mexico border. NWS is a major threat to the beef industry, especially if that shit comes into the USA.
Good Question. I went looking... Vanguard. JP Morgan. Chase. Barclays. Goldman. etc. These are the buyers. The rules of the ETF's mean that every $100 you DCA into VOO, someone somewhere is buying approx. $7.75 of NVDA, $6.87 MSFT $6.32 AAPL........>....$1.71 TSLA....>.... 15c DASH, 15c MMM .....>....1c NWS. They need to buy those from the open market. Pushing up the price. Interesting data here: [look at VOO Fund flows recently](https://etfdb.com/etf/VOO/#fund-flows). Some big number are getting out of VOO recently.
Instructions unclear, sold RMR and bought NWS, where money?

DNN becouse no one is talking about but Barchart as one of the top 5 volume traded stocks.
Isn't this from the import ban on a lot of cattle due to the NWS parasite?
I’m glad that the NWS can to to beef prices what the oil cartel can do to gas prices
Did you miss the part where the budget for NOAA was cut by at least 25%? Or how the NWS has lost 14% of its staff since January while sitting at a ~40% vacancy rate for current positions? Numerous offices for the NWS are no longer able to provide 24/7 operations due to the recent budget cuts and lack of adequate staffing thanks to cuts from DoGE.
Central NC. NWS basically has the TV blacked out for warnings. Nothing on the phone. USA done as a nation.
The DoD stopped providing satellite data to the NWS on July 31.
The county and state dropped the ball and are desperate to blame anyone else. NWS sent out an alert at 1:15 am that said "life threatening flash flooding" which was meant to activate the EAS. The EAS alert should have gone at within the next 10 minutes but local officials waited hours and posted to Facebook instead of sending push notifications. Kerr county recently explored expanding the flood alert system but declined to do so because they said taxpayers won't go for it. So local residents and authorities don't need to look too far for why they weren't notified in a timely manner
The facts show that the NWS was overstaffed at the time and gave ample warning about the floods. No cuts contributed to the deaths. From a non-conservative source, in case you doubt it: [https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/national-weather-service-nws-staff-cuts-trump-budget-texas-floods-rcna217139](https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/national-weather-service-nws-staff-cuts-trump-budget-texas-floods-rcna217139)
The only reason for this announcement is to distract from the flooding and NWS cuts.
Imagine being a dipshit that believes in God, forcing your kid to go to Bible camp against their will, then your God sends a spontaneous flood that instantly kills your kid and then you go on national news and say no one could have predicted this even though NWS literally issued flood warnings days in advance.
Guys it's fine, all those dead kids are kuz of weather modding drones, nothing to do with cutting half NOAA's weather balloons or NWS' access to critical satellite data...nope just weather drones
He guts the NWS, Texas has a deadly flood and there are MAGA people blaming deep state Biden operatives. They may 'care' but they are never going to assign blame to him
Texas death toll up to 69 and 11 children still missing as of the time I’m writing this. Why? Because Musk lobbied Taco hard to create DOGE and personally run it. He cut 600 employees from the NWS leaving them unable to accurately predict weather. The only thing Musk should be doing is getting fitted for his prison uniform. Fuck that psycho nutcase!
do they actually do anything more than just repackage NWS data? cause if not i wouldnt expect that to work much longer...
For kindling, the average American is getting crushed in real terms. Especially when you look at how much the dollar has fallen. When you look at spy/gold vs wages/gold, wages aren't keeping up. On a population basis, labor is so far behind capital that there's nothing at the end of the month to put towards capital. Housing is such a large % of household spending. Which wouldn't be that alarming if we weren't also cutting all of the social safety nets. For fast catalysts, inflationary tariff policy on the horizon. Dollar devaluation. Government debt. Record high rebounds for indices. The budget bill. Slower catalysts, Geopolitical risks. Climate/Insurance risk. This hurricane season is likely to break records while this administration is gutting NWS, NOAA, FEMA. But reality is that until it starts showing up in filings, It's all green. But I'm systematic long vol so I'm here for it either way.
How are you reading in your NOAA data? Are you pulling straight from NWS or accessing NCEI somehow?
Corruption was using the NWS to fund the ACA
The difference between then and now was the Net Worth Sweep. The company's earnings were effectively useless with the government seizing them. After the NWS was killed, proper valuation of the company was able to skyrocket back to fundamentals.
I would settle for restoring ATC, the NWS, FEMA and NIOSH.
30 NWS weather forecasting offices out of 122 in the country are not operating 24/7. [Link](https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/02/weather/nws-forecasting-layoffs-trump) 
The amount of funding that has been yanked from rural America will be felt for decades. AmeriCorps jobs and training for kids, gone. Grants for small businesses, gone. Grants for revitalization of historic towns, gone. Access to programs that help suicidal vets or vets with substance abuse, gone. Early tornado weather warnings from NWS, gone. Some of the USDA grants for sustainable farming, gone. Seed bank funding, gone. The sell off of our public lands. The tariffs strangling our economy. Some of these things will hurt us immediately and some will hurt us over the course of years. Either way, Trump and MAGA negative effects will be felt for decades and it only took them 100 days. Scary stuff.
Hmmm, don’t think that’s accurate. They depend on data from those orgs for their models. From Google search labs: “AccuWeather has stated that it does not support plans to fully commercialize NWS operations and that NOAA has a critical role in the American weather enterprise.”
Shut down NOAA and NWS? AccuWeather has been trying to privitize those functions for decades.
NWS is a big deal here in Oklahoma but these dipshits know what they voted for
Two things: The State Department's contract for$400 million worth of armored cyber trucks. Trying to shut down the NWS and replace it with private companies using starlink
The meteorologist at the NWS are 100% useful. DOGE also just canceled the lease for the Radar Operations Center in my city that is in charge of repairing and testing their Doppler radars nationwide. Makes 0 since bro. Meteorology is also the lowest paying stem degree while being one of the hardest, so these are all people that are truly dedicated to your work and not just jacking around all day doing it for the money.
Re: Agricultural output, the farmers will be double-fucked once DOGE completely "deletes" NOAA & NWS.
 Tell me about I'm a huuuge weather nerd and I work with the NWS and have lots of meteorology friends 
(Trying to keep things related to the economy and not about the other horrific/embarrassing headlines today) "Inflation-adjusted consumer spending fell 0.5%, marking the biggest monthly decline in almost four years after a robust holiday season." The savings rate jumped to 4.6% from 3.5%. [Trends visualized](https://i.imgur.com/mYyx2T0.png). At the same time, [US long run inflation expectations jumped to 3.5%](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-21/us-consumer-sentiment-drops-as-long-run-inflation-views-rise), the highest reading since 1995. [Graph](https://i.imgur.com/q9i8ogj.png). This is consistent with the headline earlier this week: [consumer confidence fell by most in 3 years](https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/us-consumer-confidence-deteriorates-sharply-february-2025-02-25/). Atlanta GDP crashes to -1.5%... These estimates are volatile, but the last time we ever saw a negative reading was in mid 2022. Apparently it's because net exporters are front running the imminent tariffs. **Upshot:** Mr. President, ur scaring the ~~hoes~~ consumer. We seem to be walking into an expectations driven recession, not something prompted by some kind of crisis in the supply chain or financial sector. There is essentially no reason for the US economy to slow down right now. Especially since we are allegedly seeing red tape getting cut. All of this could reverse in a hot flash if: - Tariffs are never implemented and the President stops threatening them - Federal employment and future hiring stabilizes with funding package from Congress - New trade deals with US allies get announced That's the catalyst in my opinion. We need to see a real public backlash to current policies to prompt a shift away, and that in turn could really push the market to ATH. Instead, on a daily basis, we're hearing about mass layoffs in some major agency. Yesterday it was the NOAA and NWS (oceans and weather research agencies)--the people who warn/prepare for hurricanes, tsunamis, fire, etc. The agency that responds after those disasters (FEMA) is also losing 100s of workers. Businesses are getting scared too. Alcoa (US aluminum producer) warned "100,000 U.S. Industry Jobs at Risk Due to Trump’s Proposed Tariffs on Steel, Aluminum." Hiddenscout below posted the quotes of several other CEOs too on the uncertainty. [Article here](https://www.semafor.com/article/02/27/2025/american-business-leaders-are-turning-on-trump-fast) from Semafor. I realize this comment is full of politics, and this causes some people annoyance, but political change is **real** and clearly showing up in US economic indicators. Consumers suddenly pulling back and saving up money + businesses not hiring all at the same time is a warning sign.
Ah, but there won't be any weather to worry about with NOAA and NWS being cut. They're playing 5d Monopoly.
DOGEs goon squad going after NOAA now  My work gets funding from NOAA and NWS 
Did you know that after Fannie and Freddie were put into conservatorship, they were directed to buy $40 billion per month of subprime mortgages from the TBTF banks at face value? If they were insolvent, as many people claim, where did they get the money? From the US Treasury! Why did they do that? Because Hank Paulson wanted to bail out his banking industry buddies. Years later Fannie and Freddie sued the banks and won about $100 billion in settlements. Where did this money go? To the US Treasury, not to the enterprises. And are you aware that in 2012, Ed DeMarco, the head of FhFA unilaterally implemented the 3rd Amendment to the Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement AKA the Net Worth Sweep. What’s a net worth sweep? Well instead of paying 10% interest on the money they borrowed ( to buy the junk mortgages) the companies were required to turn over ALL their profits as a “dividend” not a loan payment. Thus the companies could NEVER repay a loan they never needed in the first place. And it gets better.. just prior to implementing the Net Worth Sweep, DeMarco was told that the billions the companies had reserved as potential losses never materialized and were about to be reversed. These loss reserves (DTA’s) or Deferred Tax Allowances would hit the books as profit but because of the NWS, this money was swept away to the US Treasury. The companies make about $20 billion a year which just happens to be the shortfall needed by Obamacare to break even.. so their profits were diverted to fund the money-losing ACA. I know SCOTUS ruled that FHFA could do just about anything to the entities they regulate (Collins v Yellen) but a jury ( in Washington DC of all places) ruled 9-0 that DeMarco breached his authority when he on his own with no evidence justifying his decision, signed off on the Net Worth Sweep. Trump didn’t end the conservatorship during his first term but I’m pretty sure he will this time. The only question is when and what are the terms?
Yes - starting at end of trump admin they ended the NWS and have been allowed to retain capital
“Today the press secretary for President Donald J Trump announced that all official communications from the federal government are now mandated to use Truth social. This includes the NWS, NASA as well as all law enforcement and any department that falls under the executive branch. News agencies will be required to purchase a license to report any news communicated on Truth social for rebroadcasts” Trump is planning on following the Victor Orban model of integrated his personal finances into the country’s. This is a layup for him if he is elected.
Thanks for asking my friend! The thesis is: In 2008 the government wrongly and illegally put fnma and fmcc into conservatorship. There is lots of evidence that shows they did this illegally. They then go to fix the financial crisis by virtually liquidating these 2 assets. They get cellar boxed into oblivion, and evidence shows they were going to shut them down eventually and bankrupt them. In 2012 though, the Obama administration got ahead of themselves, both companies had a profitable year due to swaps that occurred in 07’! So then they start becoming profitable! The Obama administration runs what they implement as the NWS net worth sweep where every dollar they make gets swept into the treasury forever! This starts lawsuits, and now they publicly brought attention to this illegal conservatorship. Now they can’t bankrupt the company, now the conservatorship must continue. Trump removes the NWS, both companies now have 100b $ cash piles and are set to be removed from conservator ship through contract ending 2028 or any Congress that releases them first.
Atleast 8 people that commented on my callout yesterday about NWS models. The squeeze is gonna continue.
Nah. NWS models has 80% of rain offloaded in the Gulf. Only 20% of the current inertia will hit the coast. Momentum = inertia x speed.
Milton damage is overplayed. It’s going to weaken considerably before landfall. It’s moving west to east which weakens hurricanes. Combined with NWS models putting 80% of its rainfall over the gulf before landfall.

the 7% gain height was enough for me to sell off to some other chumps for 250% gain. Glad I didn't hold the short term position. However, long term with NWS beating earnings shows good signs for media in general
The top holding is MSFT at 7.16% the bottom holding is NWS at O.OO% which do you thing is moving the index?
So buy NWS and hold for 5+ years?
NWS long term probably 🤷

its basement got flooded. BIO, ZION, HAS, WHR, DVA, VFC, RL, MHK, FOX, and NWS all drowned. they need money for the funeral
NWS is at the bottom with 14 billion market cap, no? That's large cap.
NWS Kansas city imploring and begging people not to be out doors today. The wind chill will be -30 for the dolphins chiefs game NFL: Son, we need you to suit up and go play some football for us 🥶 Everyone calling the dolphins soft and bitches somehow I think it’ll be a close game despite the dangerous conditions
Is there any specific evidence of this? More money into a larger company doesn't imply they grow disproportionately to me - a $1B dump into a $100B company is a 1% increase just like a $10M dump into a $1B company. Market weighting should mean all daily investments into a company are an equal percentage of their market cap and hence the market cap (by percentage) would increase identically. I would actually assume the opposite - I would think AAPL is much more liquid and actively traded (top of SP500) compared to, say, NWS (bottom of SP500). A more liquid/actively traded company is going to have a deep order book, so a large order by an index fund would have a lower impact to price. I have no idea if I'm right here, and I'm happy to be corrected.
Entertainment companies are bait. DIS, NFLX, WBD, FOX, VZ and CMCSA, T and NWS. The barely make any money because they are producing content all the time, tens to hundreds of millions for one movie or tv series. Excluding the media telcos which make money from internet plans. There are no reasons for a customer to be 'loyal' to a company. They are going to watch whatever is good and if the prices are too high people just watch stuff 'for free'. I've pointed out that what makes GOOG and META different is that they don't create content, and don't have to worry about creating good content. People create bad content and good content for free, and only once successful do they get any money. I avoid the entire sector. Stick with companies that have good business models.
This 600 tweet daily limit on Twitter is such bullshit. What if I want to get a weather update from my local NWS account? I’m SOL. Fuck Elon.
Why don't you talk to the NWS and let them know that I agree. Also, happy cake day.
[https://www.flightradar24.com/NWS3512/2ef0cbdc](https://www.flightradar24.com/NWS3512/2ef0cbdc) damn. russian have to do a huge loop around.
The only time a post from this sub should have been tagged NWS, and it wasn't! 😄
Do tell me... where is our nearest large airport? Vegas. Our trauma vics get transported to where? Vegas. What NWS office serves us? Vegas. Where is our nearest shipping hub? Vegas. Where is our nearest Social Security office? Vegas. I never said "metropolitan area," I said "*greater* metropolitan area," which is the same as a combined statistical area. I can drive 40 minutes from my home, to be greeted by LVMPD. Things that happen to the Vegas economy directly impact ours. Don't even tell me that the entire tri-state area as a whole doesn't get impacted by Vegas. What happens in Phoenix, Prescott, Flagstaff or Tucson doesn't impact us like Vegas does. What happens in Lake Havasu doesn't impact us like Vegas does. You see where I'm going with this?
While it is true that the NWS provides a ton of data, it's not the only source of data that your local meteorologist uses. They will also use private data sources, and depending on the size of the network, they may have their own ("The Channel X Doppler Radar!"). It's also not true that they just add flavor to the NWS data. Basically what they get are say 5 different model outputs. And they have to turn that into something to show you. Something to show your grandma. Some of us want to see "Model X showed rain in your area in 40% of simulations, while Model Y showed only 25%" but the average person just wants to know if they should bring an umbrella or water their plants. The other problem is that weather is hyper local. The same meteorologist for the same town can be totally spot-on accurate and totally wrong at the same time. Sometimes a storm cell only hits half the town. Sometimes the pressure front literally goes through the town. Sometimes it's a really spotty storm and just some people get it and some don't. Etc.
If trump doesn’t win 2024 then there will probably be a WWIII, it actually might pop off sooner than the 2024 election, how does this affect $NWS and spacs and westworld season 5?
you are way off on the fuckery... any "meteorologist" you see doing broadcast is just regurgitating output produced by tax-payer supported weather models. The CEO of accuweather would like to take your tax-supported US national weather service forecast and repackage it and sell it to you even though you already paid for it! The US national weather service in partnership with NASA collects so much data and produces value-added weather model output, it's all free to the public, there is specifically laws to keep the NWS from making a weather app, they are trying to fuck us, google things like "weather data assimilation" to get a glimpse at how crazy this stuff is
What bugs me is half of shit asks you to sign in with Facebook or has an option. You think tom with MySpace would stand for this shit? Loading up on $NWS 200c. Think facebooks going down and it’s myspaces time to shine again. If you got any questions message me on AIM.
On a side note, Fun Fact - the S&P 500 has 500 companies but 505 listed stocks. This is because 5 companies in the S&P have dual share structures with both shares listed in the S&P: 1. Alphabet aka. Google (GOOG and GOOGL) 2. Discovery Communications (DISCA and DISCK) 3. News Corp (NWS and NWSA) 4. Fox Corp (FOX and FOXA) 5. Under Armor (UA and UAA)
Sure, but days with a higher chance of tornadic activity are predicted days ahead of time. On the day of, the NWS will issue tornado watches for areas that might be under the gun for tornadic storms to form. At that point it's on the business to have a plan in the event of a tornado warning and to take action as soon as a warning is issued for their area.
Isn’t it supposed to basically be NWS ?
I’d liken to the NWS saying there’s going to be some weather today
Obviously fin fish are easier and cheaper to grow with it being mostly chosen by consumers. The Midwest has supported aquaculture grow outs for a decade or more. Aquaculture was eligible for CFAP payments from USDA and NWS was calling the polar vortex shift for a week before it happened. Can exporters maintain production? How long?!?! Trushrimp, look them up. These intensively managed aquaculture systems are not some fad for no purpose other than stonks. They are the future.
I was curious so I checked this out. Using the data from [this page](https://www.slickcharts.com/sp500), if you invested a dollar in the lowest-weighted stock NWS (I *think* this is the least you can do in Robinhood -- I'm not a customer) and a proportional amount in each other index element, you'd spend $12,900 to cover SPX. *BUT*, the lowest-weighted five stocks all have other classes of stock for the same company on that page, so if you're indifferent to stock classes you could put $1 in NOV you'd only have to spend $6,940. Rebalancing would be a pain. For stock movements you'd naturally be fine. For dividends you'd be fine *if* the stock dropped $1 for a $1 dividend. Buybacks, stock issuance and index shuffles would cause drift. If you have $1.05 of some stock and want to have $1.07, you might be able to "sell $1.05, buy $1.07" instead of "buy $0.02" to get around Robinhood restrictions. Of course, this is mostly dumb -- nobody needs to be this precise.
I'm not going to litigate with you because I have moved on from this and convincing people taking victory laps on the internet is no way to live life. That being said, "Yes the NWS is legal." The Supreme Court did say that this decision was a legal action by the FHFA, but with an illegal director. Thus remanded to the 5th to decide damages Plaintiffs are entitled to. Likely damages will mirror the AIG damages which were zero. As you acknowledge, the NWS was legal, and the SCOTUS decision acknowledges this. In the Court of Federal Claims, where cases are brought when the government takes property, whether legally or illegally, and just compensation was not paid, the case is still on going. Now, the Supreme Court's opinion is that the NWS was legal, the FHFA (which may act in its own self interest) is no longer independent as POTUS can fire at-will, entered into an the NWS agreement with the UST (another person who reports to POTUS). Two Agency Heads who report directly to POTUS, enter into an agreement that supercede, in perpetuity, all contractual entitlements that preferred shareholders hold. This is a 5th Amendment ("nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation") issue for the CoFC to decide. It is not a "what if", because SCOTUS' opinion said this all happened & the FHFA (now no longer an independent agency) can do this, but what payment did shareholders (not the companies) receive from the government when the government entered into that perpetuity agreement that voided their contractual rights with the companies. The government should have zeroed out shareholders through receivership from the beginning. They didn't. Many cases by plaintiffs, in many circuits, with the similar legal theories and the 5th circuit made it to SCOTUS. There were also multiple cases with various legal theories in a different branches of Federal Courts. Final note: The Washington Federal Case, which has been stayed forever is the only one that challenged that the whole conservatorship was illegal BECAUSE THE AGENCY'S STRUCTURE WAS ILLEGAL. They are not nitpicking a single decision a director made. They now have a SCOTUS opinion stating that the agency was unconstitutional in the way it was structured. The remedy is to make POTUS be able to fire at will. Well, the decision to enter into conservatorship was made by an illegally structured agency* (*per SCOTUS).
Who knows… smarter people say: With warrants executes common goes to 5. If NWS is rules illegal this golden goose flys
I think you are correct on most, really the 24 vs 121B is not the focus, but more so how SCOTUS will rule the NWS(3rd amendment). ​ To your second point, I believe the court took it one step further and declared that the implementation of the third amendement was ultra vires, not just that plaintiffs had a right to be heard. But you are correct and I was inaccurate in my first reply (I think). So the court has said it shouldn't be dismissed, but They also did write like a 30 page essay on why it was illegal. I'm not sure the significance of that.
All great points! I'll try to unpack each one a little bit... First, the math. Like I noted in a different comment, I don't think the shareholders are even asking for $120 billion to be returned. At least, that's what their attorney represented at the Supreme Court hearing. Specifically, he said that most of the "over-payment" was interest that was owed to the government. Therefore, the amount in controversy would be **$29.5 billion**, which is still huge, but significantly smaller than the $120 billion that folks are thinking Fannie/Freddie may get back. That lower number would shrink the stock's price action considerably. Second, the APA. I agree with your opinion that APA might be more fertile ground, but again, just didn't see it being a major focus, for some reason. To be clear, I am not super knowledgeable about APA claims, so there may be some fatal flaw in that claim which prevented the parties from drilling down on it...I don't know. Third, a new possibility. During the Supreme Court hearing, Justice Breyer brought up another potentially interesting theory. He asked: if the shareholders believe that the government has taken something of value from them, why don't they bring a "takings clause" case? That question may have teed up a future lawsuit, if the current one does not yield the outcome that shareholders desire. Fourth, the 5th Circuit's *en banc* ruling, I honestly didn't read the whole thing, so I could be wrong about something, and would greatly appreciate any correction. That being said, I read the summary at the beginning of the opinion, and scanned the remainder. My take-away was that the court essentially distinguished between a factual matter and a legal matter. The **factual** matter concerned whether the FHFA exceeded its authority by entering into the NWS. That issue was originally dismissed by the lower court, which means there was no discovery, trial, etc. However, the 5th Circuit said that shareholders presented a plausible claim, and therefore, the issue should not have been dismissed. As a result, it was **remanded** to the lower court, and will presumably be further pursued in the future. That doesn't mean it will ultimately succeed, of course, but it does mean that it is still alive. If the stock price jumps, this is the most probable path, and the journey will likely take several more years to resolve. As for the timing, therefore, OP's analogy about us currently being in the 9th inning might be right, but I suspect that we may be closer to the 6th inning. As for the merits, I would be curious to hear an assessment about the viability and prospects of this claim, if anybody has some knowledge/experience in this particular arena. The **legal** matter concerned whether the "for cause" language in the HERA statute renders the Director's actions void. With regard to that issue, the *en banc* court agreed with the shareholders that the language was **unconstitutional, but** said "that prospective relief is the proper remedy" and that "the Shareholders can only obtain a declaration that the FHFA’s structure is unconstitutional." Because shareholders were not afforded the remedy they wanted, they appealed to the Supreme Court. Because the legal issue is the one that is currently before the Supreme Court, that was the issue which I was referencing in my prior comments. However, I'm glad that you brought up the nuance of the remanded issue because it highlights that this case could continue to play out for a while. Then again, a decisive SCOTUS opinion could sort everything out on Thursday morning. Who knows. Interesting saga though.
that's not exactly what en banc ruled. The did rule the NWS ultra vires, but i believe the plaintiffs lost when it came to retroactive relief, and the courts said to go back to the lower courts to determine what relief should be. Or am i mistaken? You're the law student lol but that's what it sounded like when I read it. And i like that you brought up that they did not focus on the APA claim at all, which i initially found very disturbing. This might just be wishful thinking, but is it possible that they have already decided what they would claim on that (given the en banc i think it was 100 page long opinion or something similar), and that the constitutional claim had much higher implications, so that is what they focused their time on. IMO I think we win the APA claims, NWS is ruled illegal and must stop, and i think for the constitutional claim the language is changed and thats it. ​ If plaintiffs win the constitutional claim the way they want, That means like 120B is returned back to FNMA/FMCC and if that happens, you should honestly expect 300% in a day
Yup NWS. And out of all things to come from the government, it’s actually pretty useful and works. We use it to help plan out backpacking/camping trips. I trust them more than the weather ppl on tv or weather apps.
Yup. It's called NWS.
Just an idea but if you are out of money borrow some from NWS and buy more AMC with it screw the FUD news outlets 😂
Why dont you short NWS shitadels FUD news company 😂

Market watch issues high out perform rating for News Source: NWS (News Source is sole owner, proprietor, and content contributor for Market Watch) Imagine a newspapers headline: Daily Bugle voted best newspaper for 10th year in a row by Daily Bugle...🙃
🤔 so can we shortsell NWS out of business? 😂
> Not a single pregnancy was carried to term after receiving it, and nobody knows what it might do 2, 3, 5 years from now From a quick google: As of last week, 69,337 people reported to v-safe — a voluntary health check-in tool from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention — that they were pregnant when they received the COVID-19 vaccine. Some also enroll in the pregnancy registry, which involves being contacted once per trimester, after delivery, and when the baby is three months old. The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices reported that among the 1,815 people enrolled as of Feb. 19, 275 had completed their pregnancies, including 232 live births https://www.theday.com/article/20210404/NWS01/210409762
thoughts on NWS? Rupert Murdoch bought a fair amount.
I did some resarch and need your opinions. All the month we saw FUD from mainstream trading medias : WSJ, Motley fool, marketwatch... etc Thoses medias are property of NEWS CORP. (NWSA & NWS, didn't understand why there was two tickers ?) I checked on whale wisdom thinking Melvin or Citadel could be invested a lot in this stock and could make pressure on them ("i own you, write what i want") But I found out that Citadel was "only" 1,37% of shares. Aside you have : - price T rowe : 15% -vanguard : 13% -blackrock : 6% - independant franchise partner : 7% - and many more Then, if the GME saga is a Hf war, wouldn't it be great for the other HF to spread good news about GME ? Why all the Fud if they own the media ? thanks for tour thoughts !
If anyone wants the DD link. Investing in Watermelons 🍉 With summer coming up and cruises starting up again I would like to know how I can invest in the watermelon market. Watermelon is one of the most-loved fruits which are essential to the hot summer season. A slice of the watery, sweet delight can instantly rejuvenate the body. The immense water content in watermelons can also hydrate from within. Unlike most fruits, melons in particular watermelons require very warm temperatures to grow and fruit. 70 degrees for the vegetative stage. They also have a long time to fruit which is 90 days. NWS and NOAA released their weather reports and they predict a long winter for the Western Hemisphere. Mexico is supposed to get hit with a polar vortex ruining the watermelon crop and they are one of the biggest exporters of Watermelon. In Asia and Europe square watermelons are becoming very trending and will be a huge market this year. **#Wada Farms#** Wada Farms extends watermelon season, hires new sales person https://theproducenews.com/watermelons/wada-farms-extends-watermelon-season-hires-new-sales-person **#Growth of the Seedless Watermelon#** Seedless watermelon breeding takes off. https://www.lancasterfarming.com/news/main_edition/pollen-plants-promote-seedless-watermelon-growth/article_57c3d511-2794-53e8-9620-aaeb6f344cdc.html **#Pop Culture Influence #** Movie the Watermelon Man is making a comeback. https://www.hollywoodchicago.com/news/35629/film-review-watermelon-man-is-a-pivotal-film-in-black-cinema-history?page=1 **#Watermelon Drink#** Top Players in Watermelon Drink Market are -WTRMLN WTR -LemonConcentrate S.L. -Asia Food & Beverage Co., Ltd NAWON -World Waters, LLC -PepsiCo Inc -Nestlé S.A.
