  2. Trump cleaning up the Democrat's messes!
  3. Not true!
  4. Today
  5. Did not know there was such a center in Texas! Paxton!
  6. I still have the Beaumont Enterprise with both teams on the cover.
  7. Exactly and ppl on this site didn't respect it, well at least one person. He know who he is.
  8. I watched you guys win the same night as Silsbee went back to back.
  9. Trump!
  10. Welp, looks like Trump is still gaining black voters NOT in SE Texas 😂
  11. All stocks are making huge gains as they recover from Trump’s “Liberation Day” abortion of a tariff program and start of Operation Epstein’s Fury. Insurance is up because the costs that they pay to repair or replace products has risen tremendously. Utility cost increases also fall squarely on the Trump administration for disrupting global supply chains with the Operation in Iran. Property taxes are decreased for homeowners in Texas, not increased. That part is just not true.
  12. I own a small piece of UNP (Union Pacific). Another solid, leading indicator of growth. Check out their past year. Good divvies as well. Boring, but solid. My type of stock. My personal opinion is the economy is primed. People aren’t really dying because of gas or food prices. What’s killing folks is insurance of all types (medical, auto, home, flood), utilities, and property taxes. These are what’s hitting people so hard. It just makes everyone notice the smaller items more, and that leads to a general sense of financial insecurity. The grocery and gas bills seem really outsized because the insurance, utilities, and property taxes are jumping astronomically, and affecting people’s ability to even stay in their homes. Just my opinion.
  13. That’s a big part—yes. They are also a major play for equipment required for building any type of facility. Where Big Cat goes, engineers, electricians, welders, instrument techs, HVAC, plumbers/fitters, millwrights, scaffold builders, and just about every construction craft you can think of soon follow. Good paying jobs. Caterpillar is a leading indicator. Not a current snapshot. Similar to rail. This is also good news for the American steel industry. Good jobs in that industry. Important to note that many of the jobs necessary to build out will also be required to maintain the facilities. So, there will be more than just short to mid-term construction jobs. There will be long-term maintenance jobs in the crafts/skills/trades. Ironically, jobs that advanced AI has to have to exist. Jobs that many with a wasted 4 year degree will wish they had not looked down on as beneath them.
  14. I was curious if you’re correct, and the article that I found shows them up 180% over 12 months, not as flashy, but still great. So I asked myself “why is Big Yellow doing so well when the rest of the economy isn’t?” Their generator business has exploded with the growth of AI and data centers. It’s a new segment, and it explains why cat stock price is doing better than Deere, Komatsu, etc. Those gen sets are primarily made in China, Germany, India, Brazil, and the UK. But there is a small facility in Georgia
  15. It’s what Trump believes not Ivanka!
  16. Got to give him some credit when he gets a win. 👏👏👏
  17. Correct…sorry….didn’t mean from there but was at school there
  18. You were not joking - Caterpillar is up 302% in the last 6 months...... [Hidden Content]
  19. Me, too… it says that he hasn’t been online since November 7th, though.
  20. I just sent him a message and it went through fine.....
  21. One of the best indicators for growth that will help Main St.: Caterpillar The stock is on a tear, and is a construction/manufacturing/infrastructure bellwether.
  22. Really......? Why are you concerned about Israel first? I could care less what their markets are doing. S&P 500 heads for it's best monthly gain in 5 years.... [Hidden Content] As of late April 2026, the NASDAQ Composite (^IXIC) has been trading near its 52-week highs, closing around 24,673.24 as of April 29, 2026, after experiencing strong performance over the past year.

  23. Makes sense now, buddy ball - "Bourg led the Flour Bluff Hornets boys team to a District 29-5A title and three rounds deep in the Region 4-5A-D1 playoffs this season and is a familiar face to Barbers Hill Athletic Director Cody Simper. Bourg started his coaching career as an assistant basketball coach at Corpus Christi Ray in 2010 which was the same year that Simper took the helm of the football program."
