The RAM shortage is upon us.

Xbox is about to raise their console prices again.

The Steam Machine might be DOA next year.

Surprised MS, Valve, Sony, Nintendo, etc aren't blaming the tariffs for this too.

It reads right there: "Xbox did not account for this, and have told retailers they will be raising prices. Sony is said to have stockpiled RAM and should be price stable for now."

They aren’t blaming tariffs yet because these issues are supply-chain and component shortages, not trade-policy costs.

Does that answer your question? (Yes, I know it wasn’t actually a question, but I just wanted to drop the hammer with that one)

US posts solid job growth in September, but unemployment...

U.S. employment growth accelerated in September, but the labor market remained sluggish and failed to keep pace with new job-seekers as employers dealt with fallout from import tariffs and integrated

@Cult Icon I’m HIGHLY confident (>95%) that the +119K jobs figure for September will face significant downward revision. The initial expectation was around +50K jobs and that was already relatively optimistic given recent months and broader market indicators. The rise in the unemployment rate from 4.3% to 4.4% also suggests the labour market isn’t nearly as strong as one might hope. Also, with no separate October report (it’ll be merged into November, apparently), we basically lose a month of clear data.

Thoughts?

TBH I don't really follow the jobs numbers since the great recession around 2010. This is when I (and many Americans) realized that the jobs number and the BLS, and other government statistics are highly suspect- just like stock prices they are a mix of fiction and reality. I have the BLS handbook and used to believe it salary inflated and unrealistic figures until I became an adult and saw the real job postings myself.
