Here, Martin, let me help you interpret what he’s trying to say. “Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah”. ![]()
Right
the guys a trip for sure.
I don’t really buy dips. 75%+ of my portfolio is just two stocks. At times, those two stocks make up 90% of my holdings.
Here’s your hero: Lindsey Girl grinnin like she’s got a saddle full of pickles. It’s a shame SC is such a bevy of confused whores.
Get ready for a bad day in the market today. It starts in 1 min.
I never spend too much time in the market. I try to keep my money out, especially with recent events.
I saw the market was down substantially and couldn’t resist.
I didn’t do too bad. I didn’t put too much money at risk. My inspections start when the market opens, by the time I circle the house I sell.
Now I can focus on other things and not worry.
You’re doing better than me today. I’m slightly negative.
Why, what did Trump say or do this time?
So Trump controls the market? TDS.
Too bad about Savannah ![]()
As I said, that is a by-product of your ignorant investment in Wall Street corporations such as Blackrock, Vanguard, etc.: in this case, funneling their monopoly money into pricey exclusionary real estate. In doing so, they are also buying influence in local governments.
Adults need to hold themselves responsible for their actions. It’s easy to blame a theory for your shortfalls. Liberals blame and conservatives solve.
Yeah, like being Sunday School cheerleaders for World War 3 and the Antichrist.
The stock markets were once a marketplace for real capitalism and investment for retirement. Now the stock markets are the means for hegemonic control of entire economies and civilizations..
Slow day yesterday $84k for the month of April is a pretty nice haul
anyone with a good head on their shoulders can control their money. It’s not big business controlling our money. I control all of my own retirement money. At the end of the day all my money is out of the market. I push in how much I want to. I take out everything before closing. I’ve been doing this since 1995. I’m rarely in the market for more than 30 minutes.
Even the Great Wall of China was built one brick at a time.
You have your head so far up your rear end with conspiracy theories you’re missing the big picture.
All of the conspiracy “theories” have been proven ro be true, Einstein.
Your faith in the stock markets is a lot like the spec home builders who must progressively raise the prices on their new homes to meet the temporary high demand for homes at certain phases of the market. They and their competing builders cause a shortage of materials along with a rise in the wholesale prices of those materials. Eventually the spec builders find that they cannot get the prices for their homes that they expected. The homes will sit on the market longer, costing them in interest payments and a loss in cash flow to even pay their subcontractors. Eventually the builder bankrupts, losing his own home, his wife, his dog, and his boat.
During periods of hyperinflation (mostly due to wars, massive immigration, offshore and criminal enterprises, and other insane government special interests) we can see the same pricing phenomenon having its effect on other businesses. I stopped at a new barber shop the other day in rural Cleveland, Georgia. It was a spartan operation with only two barber chairs and no chairs for customers to wait their turn for a haircut. I asked how much for a haircut, and the owner told me $35.00; but since I am a senior it would be $30.00. And sure enough, his handwritten chalkboard sign bore him out. I told him that until a year or two ago the going price for a haircut was $15 or so; and only recently most barbers raised their price for a standard haircut to $20.00. Why the steep increase to $30-35? He said that his professional electric clippers cost almost $1,000.00 each and his stainless steel scissors cost $400.00 each. (Looking online now, I see that his tools of the trade are actually available for about a third of the price he said he paid, the prices having a recent market “correction”.) I thanked the barber and told him that I would go think about it while at the driving range.
The stock market experiences the same pricing mania and depressions as spec homes and haircuts. The markets are in the most overbought condition in recorded history. Most of it is related to the unrealistic hype around Artificial Intelligence. The hype would have the naive adherents believe that Ai is so smart that it can fight our ongoing and future wars for us, while removing from the battlefield any semblance of human conscience and whistleblowers. In reality, today’s Ai proves to be ineffective in simple tasks such as transcribing voice-to-text for close-captioning in videos. Today’s speech recognition software is not much improved over the DragonSpeak software that I purchased in 1989.
Today’s seemingly impenetrable stock market bubble is being propped up by the Ai trading software that has been incorporated into the market. The market has been jiggered to “mend” every negative move downward by repurchasing with funds drawn or borrowed from another positive momentum elsewhere in the market. (Not to mention secretive injections by the Federal Reserve and other banking systems.) And it is of equal significance that two or three companies (BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street) have been allowed to monopolize ownership and control of about 90% of the holdings throughout the stock markets. And they have been packaging and selling home mortgage portfolios throughout the stock markets in much the same way as they did before the stock markets crashed in 2008-2009. The only real difference is that the market capitalization is 400% bigger than it was in 2008. Good luck with your stock bubble.
You’re the same guy that gets 60 shaves out of a disposable razor. I’m sure when someone questioned your home inspection fees you validated your prices somehow.
Somehow you think it’s unfair for another business to charge you for their services. Their service fees were upfront and honest. Yet you still disagree.
No worries I hope the market crashes 50% to 75% overnight. I love it!! It’s very easy to make money in a down market.
I have been out of the market for 6 years now since I lost nearly my entire retirement (1.6 million) that I had saved between 15-38 yrs.
I had moved my money with a family member who started their own financial services. Unfortunately, they partnered with 2 guys a year later that embezzled or faked documents to steal nearly everything, including my account. I’m not really sure how it all went other than it’s gone.
I have built back a couple 100k since then but haven’t had the courage to put it back into to market.
