We were at the infamous Birch Run mall today on the way back from
Frankenmuth. There was an area that was completely empty and roped off.
A good 1/4 of the site. Sprinkled throughout away from this area were
stores missing. They had most of the premium stores all crammed
together.
After I dropped the wife off at the "good" section, I drove to around
the back where the not-so premium stores were (across from the
completely empty set of stores) and saw a 60-70% off sale sign at Haggar
For Men. Holy smokes, I practically robbed the place. Between my son
and I, we bought 3 suits, 5 dress pants, 6 dress shirts, a belt, 3
ties, a pair of jeans...I know I'm forgetting some things...anyway at
Men's Warehouse this would be easily been $2,000. With the 60-70% off
the already marked down prices we paid > get this > $275. It felt dirty
but I'm supposed to return back to the office soon and I'm SET. Imagine
getting a premium sports coat for $20. It will cost more to have it
tailored!
Beyond that, I chatted up the lady running the store and we discussed,
"retail apocalypse". I'm 100% convinced people have absolutely no idea
what is about to happen. The lady was super-smart and a real go-getter.
If I was a hiring manager, I'd bring her into my group. At any rate,
Haggar, like so many other stores is permanently closing in a month and
"going online". Ideas like customer service and trying things on are
going to be lost concepts soon. Welcome to Amazon Basics.

Soyjacks and Karens shilling for perpetual war in Ukraine pleases
Blackrock and Raytheon. Dye your hair purple and shake your fist at
January 6. Pawns.
America is being remade into the image of a homeless, drug addicted,
Nicaraguan drag queen.
What is the endgame of migration replacement?
Ever look at the labor participation rate? It keeps shrinking.
I wonder why.
Once unique as the breakfast tacos people replace the working poor and
middle America, who pays for the endless wars and soup kitchens? Who's
pension, bank account and 401k will serve as bag holders for the inside
traders in Washington?

WTI Crude oil in June was $130 a barrel. Today it's $77 a barrel.
The chart shows a line straight down. Oil stocks are high. Price at the
pump is high. Yet the price of oil per barrel is almost half. Hmmmm...
WWIII on the horizon.

Egg prices have soared 60% in a year. Here's why.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/eggs-prices-2022-chicken-bird-flu-inflation-
cpi/
"Nearly 58 million birds have been infected with avian flu as of January
6, the USDA said, making it the deadliest outbreak in U.S. history.
Infected birds must be slaughtered, causing egg supplies to fall and
prices to surge."
3 sources of attack: plant fires, bogus feed, "bird flu". You pay 60%
more. Eggs are in almost everything.
