None.Did you all hear about the proposed 44% capital gains tax? What effect will that have?
This. It's pure blowhardry. It's shitThatWontHappen.jpeg about a budget scrap in 2025 from someone highly likely to be unemployed by then with a non-zero chance of dropping dead before then. With a Senate hell-bent on his ruin and a friendly but weak House Majority at best.None.
Best policy would be to abolish cap gains taxes completely and tax it all as income. That would help reduce class divisions in society and drive down the rates for everyone which is always a boost for the economy.None.

Please note that I have no idea if such a thing would be true or not, just putting this up there for the lolz and boost my pittance of shares.
1 Thought general tendency for S&P500 listed firms is to warn on poor earnings, not good, but I wouldn't take that opinion/thought to the bank with "real" money.
2 I am expecting great earnings, which in this case is above predicted earnings, but I wouldn't take that opinion/thought to the bank with "real" money.
Which begs the question, what is "real" money? The money in my low cost index 401 funds.
PS
Full disclosure: I do have some SMCI at sub $400 in a retail account because life without risk can be somewhat dull.
