Hopefully, Trump will successfully oversee the bankrupt DC corporation (which is apparently already gone. BidenActor et alia and various congress critters are DC corporate zombies in addition to being election fraudsters and imposters). Also hopefully, Trump will re-establish the mooted Republic from the date of its murder by the Brits, Royals, banksters and the Vatican through their agent saboteur Abraham Lincoln.

As for the illegitimate agencies, Fed, CIA (already foreign) and the Vatican bureaucracies (aka IRS) in DC, it will be interesting.

Companies Plan To Ramp Up Capital Spending

The latest release from the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) shows small businesses plan to put their capital spending into overdrive.

Further, overall optimism spiked to the highest since June 2021 and is now close to pre-pandemic levels.

The percentage of businesses planning to increase capital spending in the very near term rose to 28%, the highest since January 2022, when companies were spending a lot to accommodate hybrid workers.

But 2025 capital spending plans are not uniformly positive across industries. Chevron (CVX) plans to lower spending relative to 2024 but others such as MDU Resources (MDU) have ramped up plans given the demand for more infrastructure.

In general, our view is businesses find the current climate to be positive for increasing capital spending.
