Let's start with a little history, shall we? On this day in 1876, Native American forces led by Chiefs Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull defeat the U.S. Army troops of Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer in a bloody battle near southern Montana’s Little Bighorn River. The Battle of Little Bighorn–also called Custer’s Last Stand–marked the most decisive Native American victory and the worst U.S. Army defeat in the long Plains Indian War. The gruesome fate of Custer and his men outraged many white Americans and confirmed their image of the Indians as wild and bloodthirsty. Meanwhile, the U.S. government increased its efforts to subdue the tribes. Within five years, almost all of the Sioux and Cheyenne would be confined to reservations. (After watching "Yellowstone" last night, I had to include this)Also-The last Packard–the classic American luxury car with the famously enigmatic slogan “Ask the Man Who Owns One”–rolls off the production line at Packard’s plant in Detroit, Michigan on this day in 1956. With sales dwindling by the 1950s, Packard merged with the much larger Studebaker Corporation in the hope of cutting its production costs. The new Packard-Studebaker became the fourth largest manufacturer of cars in the nation. Studebaker was struggling as well, however, and eventually dropped all its own big cars as well as the Packard. In 1956, Packard-Studebaker’s then-president, James Nance, made the decision to suspend Packard’s manufacturing operations in Detroit. Though the company would continue to manufacture cars in South Bend, Indiana, until 1958, the final model produced on June 25, 1956, is considered the last true Packard.And-On this day in 1950, an American team composed largely of amateurs defeated its more polished English opponents at the World Cup, held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Dubbed the “Miracle on Green,” the game is considered one of the greatest soccer upsets of all time. Bookies had given the Brits 3-1 odds to take the World Cup, compared to 500-1 for the Americans. The newly appointed American coach, Bill Jeffrey, apparently agreed with them, telling a British reporter, “We have no chance.” Only one American journalist had traveled to Brazil for the World Cup in the first place: Dent McSkimming of the St. Louis Dispatch, who paid his own way when his newspaper would not send him. He later said that the American victory was “as if Oxford University sent a baseball team over here and it beat the Yankees.” Newspapers also had a more alarming matter to cover: On June 29, four days before the game, North Korea had crossed the 38th parallel into South Korea, and President Truman had already ordered U.S. forces to intervene. Just six years after World War II, the country was once again on the brink of war. Nice to see that drones will be used to help restore cell service to hurricane victims and first response teams. It is about time. SEC investigating why the number 4 isn't present more often? I understand the rules of rounding and am trying to figure out how this hurts investors, if it is taking place. Tired of cryptocurrency news. Tired of seeing Bitcoin listed as indicator alongside Oil and Gold in the Futures section. $GBTC, GRAYSCALE BITCOIN TRUST / H1 No Tesla news this morning? Give it time. Over/Under on Tesla bits making Trending News is 2. This is the day The Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Uber could be back in London. No Uber in my neck of the woods. Jameis Winston is facing a three game suspension for conduct unbecoming with an Uber driver. Wonder if criminal charges will be filed and if the driver and/or company look for some payment? Jurassic World took in $150M for the weekend while The Incredibles 2 took in $80M. Speaking of rounding numbers, when will the SEC look into box office numbers which are almost always reported to the nearest million. Forget rounding the tenths place, movie numbers, which move stock prices, are rounded to the nearest million. I am sure the SEC is aware of this and taking action as I type. $CMCSA, Comcast Corporation / H1 $DIS, Walt Disney Company (The) / H1 Where is Jon Corzine and does he use Uber?Where is Marissa Mayer and does she use Uber to get to Google?
