Yes.. The buildings look like the one we visited in the images, and the timing was about right.
I remember on the tour there was some oddity about the owner, I think he was with Makers Mark for years and busted out or something. It sounded like he did not make good decisions in the Herald Article.
A relative gave me a tour in The Lexington Brewery and Distillery. It was awesome. I have had family there for 30 years. They emigrated to Georgia to be with their grandchild. Had the honor of taking Mom on a car ride there to join about 8 months after they left. That's when I went through the Giant Tesla Heavy Lift Cross world and the hand painted Jesus or Hell signs every 5 miles or so. I thought for awhile I'd see toothless folks dancing with venomous snakes on the side of the road.

Why should the goal be to benefit American “companies?” They already benefitted from 40 yrs of outsourcing.

There is another thing you need to realize. Competition does not only lower prices. It also raises prices. That is why governments like to have regulated monopolies handle certain jobs - to keep prices down by preventing competition.*Beekeeper » 03 Apr 2025, 6:31 am » wrote: ↑ The STUPIDITY of "investors" on how these tariffs will actually benefit American companies is astounding.
Once they realize that American factories will soon be producing goods that used to be produced in slave labor nations, the buying will begin. Because you can rest assured that much if not all of our former manufacturing self WILL be restored. Things like textiles, components for ALL things being assembled here like appliances, automobiles, and other "hard goods". That level of competition will also bring down prices and tell China, Indonesia, and other pacific rim nations to "go **** yourself". It ALSO makes the US of A much more secure in not relying on someone else to get things we need here when needed. Like computer chips, electronics, etc.
Add to this, the AMERICAN WORKERS understand that this not just preserves their jobs from be shipped overseas, but WILL open doors for more top paying jobs in pretty much ALL sectors of society.
It is only an UNREGULATED monopoly that will raise prices. A regulated monopoly is able to keep prices low because they own the entire market. They have no need to market for customers. They automatically have an economy of scale.
One example of an excellent monopoly that has served the nation extremely well for its entire history is the post office.

ENOUGH SAID !!
AND THEN, Janet Yellen came out and ADMITTED... Tariffs probably WOULD NOT cause price increases ! ...AND WHY? BECAUSE America companies will QUICKLY fill the void... and AMERICANS will quickly learn to BUY American, and there will BE NO price increases !

Awwwww, his ****** is throbbing now! Trump must have really worked it hard!

With Trump, you have a New Yorker, a self made Billionaire, tough as nails, AND had been talking about (and thinking about) how to GET AMERICA on the RIGHT side of the trading arrangement again for 40 years... WHAT started out after WW2 as a way to help the world recover... WAS NEVER FIXED by the dozen or so "U.S. Presidents" who served since them till now... TRUMP DECIDED to DO AMERICA a FAVOR... and the Republicans are milk toast, and the Democrats don't give a RIP about what's good for America...

I'll stand behind Trump on THIS one, UNTIL the bitter end... because IF we don't let HIM do it... NO ONE ever will !!

That being said, I actually disagree with R “Eggplant” that it’s Trump’s fault. The Minsky moment is always triggered by some kind of liquidity crisis / debt bomb exploding. So ironically I am defending Trump here (but not for the same reason as everyone else) although I am 100% certain he is a conman.
I guarantee you these tariffs are not helping.
Those factory jobs aren’t going to come back, and if they are, the machines / robots will do the labor. The unemployment rate in America will hit 15% sometime before 2029/2030.
I will go long on various stocks soon for a dead cat bounce before SPX makes another leg down to 3500-3800.
You have been warned what is coming. This is not a correction. It will be the Second GFC.

1) A $37+ Tillion debt (and counting)... doing NOTHING would lead to a TRAIN-WRECK soon !
2) The Washington Bureaucracy is being exposed as a CORRUPT MAFIA... THEY are stealing American BLIND, and doing nothing would be critical !
3) The Democrat Party OPENED the border in order to RECRUIT "Democrat voters"... and FURTHER abused the American taxpayer in the process !
4) The WORLD has been abusing American workers, and American businesses, in order to benefit themselves... and
5) China is the worst of the worst... a COMMUNIST anti West regime, that is ready, willing and Able to ABUSE World Trade, enrich themselves, and BECOME a world Power in the process...
ALL of that NEEDS to be rectified IF America is going to EVER be GREAT again... and Donald Trump is trying to do EXACTLY THAT !! That said, DO NOT expect a 1970's style, assembly line, worker-centric manufacturing... WHAT is coming is automation, robotics, and AI... I don't know exactly if there will be an "unemployment " problem... it seems to me the largest companies have already committed to spend $5+ Trillion to manufacture in America.. PLUS,China is DRIVING other manufacturing OUT of China... AND THAT might find a home in America (or at least the West and or Counties Friendly to the West),,
So, America had a choice... do something NOW, or become more and more vulnerable to the China's of the world in the near future! There would have been a crisis ONE way or another.. but THIS? THIS feels like the outcome is controllable... I see MOST of the world coalescing around America... where fair deals are made, manufacturing will be brought BACK to the west, America & the west will become strong again... leaving China, Russia and THAT entire Totalitarian circle isolated...

Last year he told us to spend more money, we didn't of course. After a decade of working 50-65 hours a week for both the wife and I and saving as much as possible, it's not easy to turn off the frugal thing. What we did in a 15 year period usually takes a couple 40-50 years to accomplish if ever. It's amazing what you can do with a diploma from Stoner High.
I hope your forecast is wrong, a lot of people going to experience considerable financial pain.
The Wife's professional license is good for another 7 years here in Colorado, I might have to smack her in the *** and have her go make some more money.

I remember @Blackvegetable said he was “hopeful but skeptical” of a V shaped rally. Today might have been a bear market rally but it shows how fast these reversals can be. (We don’t know if the bottom is in)
We should be past 6000 by EoY. Hard to call tops but I wouldn’t be surprised if they take it to 6666 before the true crash.
