RE-ELECT FRANK SOBOTKA

The damages by this strike would be enormous. This is a game of chicken, they're not going to go through with the strike. That said, they may make the announcement without actually going through with it. Frankly, the deal offered by USMX is perfectly reasonable. They are just being hard asses and playing a high stakes negotiation game. There will be an agreement reached.

They're not going to let the ports shut down 40 days before the election. No way.

No way this will happen in the next 10 days

Biden admin. will neither step in, nor allow Julie Su to get in the way of union demands - strike will happen

Montreal doesnt count right? “This market will resolve to "Yes" if the International Longshoremen's Association (ILA) or its leadership declares or announces a strike affecting any US East Coast or Gulf Coast port” https://montreal.citynews.ca/2024/09/27/port-montreal-union-files-72-hour-strike-notice/amp/
