    China May Soon Lead the U.S. in Tech

    Lead in tech isn't about IQ but about investment. It's probably fair to say the US never had the educational structure to produce large numbers of scientists and engineers. Instead it relied on attracting the best from around the world by investing huge capital in R&D. Post WW2, most of our...

    Days I hate..

    I'd say it depends on how long you've been following a stock. Some I follow (chart and news) for months and get a pretty good sense of what to expect (net positive result). Those stocks I like the middle chart because of the many opportunities. For stocks I don't follow frequently, I look...

    Baron's Crypto Trading Journal

    SunTrader wasn't satisfied with my statement and, since BTC is still in the hole, it's rather easy to find an analyst corroborating what I said. But yeah, I don't give any weight to analysts either. Anyway, back to Barron's Journal!

    Baron's Crypto Trading Journal

    As I was saying, but if you need validation from a reputable analyst: MarketWatch's Distributed Ledger spoke to Katie Stockton, founder of technical analysis firm Fairfield Strategies, about the crash in crypto over the past weekend. The declines took bitcoin to around $42,000 and Ether on the...

    Days I hate..

    I'm impressed. With the greatful assistance of "the one who can't be named", I started scalping earlier this year, methodically reading the charts for signals and... within 2 months my stress level was through the roof! This nose-in-the-handlebar trading method was just too difficult for me as...

    They're tied at the waist. BTC is so volatile that I look at MSTR for the trend, and it dropped again today, thus my fear that we aren't over.

    AMC and Gamestop Pinned to $40/$200

    GME hasn't been this low in a while. Earnings call will be interesting. Better than expected results could lead to a buying frenzy, or not.

    November job growth falls far short of expectations, unemployment rate hits 4.2%

    Employment numbers are always massaged to suit any government's agenda, and if the formula is modified, it ought to be reported and debated. I disagree with your assessment of covid reporting because I trust the medical hierarchy over politicians or media. For example, medical authorities...

    Newbie question about gifting crypto

    Great idea! I used to give a Scratcher to a friend for every year since their birth. Hit or miss.

    Global Market Crisis Analysis as of Dec 5, 2021

    I think and hope Xi will be disappeared by the CCP before he triggers an invasion of Taiwan. The CCP survival is more important than Taiwan today, and the risk is too great that China will lose in a regional war that would pit it against all other nations in that region, except for North Korea.

    November job growth falls far short of expectations, unemployment rate hits 4.2%

    I've learned a long time ago that few things in life are real. Government provides data from which numerous analyses and further research are performed. Reality is what they provide until such data is unequivocally proven false (like China's number of covid cases). The problem with alternate...

    I'm going to mostly cash in Long-Term portfolio

    Just watched the latest All-in-Podcast on YouTube (highly recommended): Chamath: "Almost 500 stocks have fallen 30 to 40% in the last 30 days, but the stock market is still basically at an all times high." That was my point. The market may not experience a crash, but specific sectors...

    Why China is the winner in all scenarios

    Absolutely not. The exact same thing can be said at the other end, as C level packages reach 9 figures they create inflation as everyone down the food chain expect higher pay. Higher labor cost is a result of labor shortage. Labor shortage is a result of Trump policies to tighten immigration...

    EV Charging Station Drive-In

    I get it. In America the transition to EV will be longer than in Europe where deadlines are set and infrastructure developments are in full swing. By 2035, Europe will be a 95% EV market. By the same time in the US, some states will be 75% EV while others will be remain very low, maybe 25%...

    EV Charging Station Drive-In

    :banghead: Your antics over EVs is like JSOP and China...the predictability is comforting. Of course you know that CA's blackouts are not tied to a lack of availability but to antiquated equipment carrying electricity from point A to B and responsible for some of the fires there. Europe...
