Nice to see Rob’s doing the same math that I’m doing when it comes to Q3’s potential.
Why do you think Afghanistan is that important? Delta COVID is far more important than Afghanistan
Afghanistan is a meaningless piece of land in central Asia which has been the "graveyard of empires" since the days of Alexander the Great. America isn't the least bit special in this regard. Since the Macedonians, the people of that place have successfully repelled the Mongols, the Persians, the Seleucids, the Turks, the Indians, the British, and the Soviets over the millennia. America could have easily avoided 20 years and $2.2 trillion by just picking up a history book but as we all know George W. Bush didn't really pay attention in school.
I believe the market does have some reactions to how the U.S is handling Afghanistan vs whatever happens to the country itself. TSMC stock did crater probably due to fears that the U.S maybe couldn't afford or is softer on securing their interest through the use of military which may opens up opportunities for China to take over Taiwan. Never gonna happen but you know markets doing market things.
Uh, $TSM looks fine to me? I don't see any smoking craters here...
The Afghanistan situation, terrible that it is, has zero impact on the US economy. Likewise Biden slumping in the polls isn’t really an immediate issue either for the economy. CV-Delta is having a much larger impact, and that paradoxically is good news for the stock market as it probably means the fed will continue to take actions to support the economy with cheap money.

Not true. Maybe back in the day it was meaningless but now Afghanistan is mineral rich country. This is why China is looking to work with the Taliban to open up mining in the country. There are also people in that country that want the freedom of democracy but have to deal with Taliban rule. For US, it isn't a good situation but to say it has no impact? With the dawn of EVs, I'd beg to say Afghanistan will have a huge impact in the semiconductor / ev raw material supply. Maybe not immediate but most definitely the future.
More correctly, OE size lowest profile tires have a wider tread width (tread width is not section width) than higher profile tires. This gives the potential of higher cornering forces--but only on dry smooth roads (see any of these in your neighbourhood lately?). Now the chances for needing emergency handling is lowest on dry smooth roads. They also react a bit quicker to steering input than tires with a longer sidewall giving the impression of better handling (responsiveness and handling are not exactly the same thing). In addition, the tread compound on lower profile tires is generally stickier than on higher profile tires, so not apples to apples comparison.
