    I worked in the Board of Trade building for decades. We would day-drink at Ceres once each year - it was the Monday after the December Friday expiration of Treasury options. Any more often than that means you have a problem.

    Underrated Chicago experiences: 1. Walk thru Jewel-Osco or Mariano's w a friend who knows all the corporate lore. 2. A morning drink at Ceres Cafe. 3. ISAC/Oriental Institute museum in Hyde Park. 4. Downtown-Chinatown water taxi. 5. Wrigley Park guided tour. What would you add?

    July's unemployment rate was 4.1% and the last time the rate was above 5.0% was September 2021. But way to take the long view.

    We've had two terrible payroll numbers in a row and the estimate for this week's is 55K. There is a 66% chance of a rate hike at the next meeting.
