%% Exactly; its not really possible to window dress 500 stocks in SPY 500. In accounting its also used for deception, recording expenses , in the next period to reduce appearance of liabilities. Buyers of DIA/DOW looks a lot like window dressing, past 3 days\ but really some are just buying...

%% LOL \ Its a bit like using 7 , or 7.778 different moving averages; eventually have to hit something................................................................................I have used a 55ma ;]fibo LOL] , but IBD front ran that one for decades with a 50 dma , the NON-fibo number[50]...

%% Leader or laggert?? Educational example= MPC has trended better all year than MRO, edit..... I made some money on single stocks; but XLE benchmark = down YTD, when SPY = UP. Single stocks are not a gamble or random walk; but like Dave ramsey\ noted average for most is 7.5% compared to 11or 12...

%% Maybe,LOL . Larry William called a good bottom in DOW,2019,but DIA can diverge plenty from SPY,QQQ. But last i heard he is living in MT, so hopefully he is not on a hair trigger:D:D Sunny maybe on to something with her Sunny Bands; cant tell if its like a modified Don Channel or Turtle...

%% No not really, QQQ is uptrend most of the year. DOW\DIA down most of year, 3 minutes to close.

%% The fractional shares in NetJets may have worked well until they got stranded in AK.:caution::caution: Cool if one wants to hunt in AK; not cool if stranded:cool::cool:

%% YES\ but the charts+ 200 day moving averages work better for me than short the individual stocks. So what worked for Dr Christian Karcher= fine for them . UDOW sometimes + some bear profits off SDOW. Traded out of a start position of QQQ; good thing about a start position, i may find...

%% WOULD not take 2-3 years@ all ; not for family help/LOL:D:D Make sure to get some legal advice before you get non family help. Me, i like[but dont require] 3-10-20 +years to 100 years, but i maybe more selective than most:caution::caution:.One fund manager in US said 10 years is not...

%% Sort of ; except I got much more out Larry Willam's books= not so much hype or expensive indicators. Williams %, dont use it much, but ''price is right'':caution::caution:Do use it sometimes. IBD could have sold a hyped up name for 200 dma, $2 million value!!\ reduced to $2,777:D:D If anybody...

%% LOL\ NOT to worry:D:D The banks+all the victory LLC types are payin' 4.44-5% on commercial paper, cd to your broker's money market fund=fun money. Not sure c/Citigroup is a good risk but i trust the female managers discretion:caution::caution: Sorry SVB did not live to see the tech rally or...

%% EXACTLY+ I did not mean it was risk free \thus the 10% gov bond loss part of SVB noted . Time value of money= right [aka opportunity loss].Amazing how much money even a ''good'' bond fund can lose some years. For a real shocker, a gov bond fund has some real shocker risks...

%% Happens a lot in MAR + OCT.

%% IN US stock market; 1st + last hours tend to be the volume hours. I avoid the open except for resting orders which i dont have to monitor on my monitor. LIKE the UK fund manager said[to Jack schwager] '' dont run out of bullets or then the elephant comes by'':D:D

%% Interesting many of them are skipping the ''risk free gov bonds 10% loss part '' Oops. NOT sure it was only ''panic'' even though that makes for a dramatic read. Maybe many just woke up to the woke -broke bank business plan...............[NOT sure SVB could avoid a tech heavy customer base...

%% PUT enough trend line$ on a chart\ may hit something:D:D barchart.com has a 32% buy on front month copper\which is a 68% sell. Metals dealers here have a 5 day wait on cash copper check, so avoids copper theft.

%% GOOD business lesson; ''avoid temptation to do[SVB-woke-broke] crazy when every else is'' Priceless:D:D

%% NO doubt things will work out in France. [Emmanuel M has worked as an investment banker if i remember right] But 35 hour average work week,OOPS?? No wonder someone said ''50,000 Frenchmen can be wrong:caution::caution:'' I was shocked some years ago, when some voters in my state elected...

%% OK\ but SVB looked really good on the charts,EPS also\but woke broke. Looks like NC bank is not woke broke. I've seen better uptrends; but monthly candle closes, past OCT 2022 was a bear killer. Maybe a semi weak or semi strong bank buys non toxic parts of a woke -broke bank. This may or may...

%% THAT [#70] could be a good thing for human health; maybe not why it was proposed??:D:D SS was never designed for one's only income. Dont need no rockin' chair\ Geritol\ or your Medicare. May take me longer/but i'll get there. G Jones, Patty Loveless, Pig Robbins on piano, from the album...

%% SCHW money market has been paying 4.44%+, subject to change. Do have to plan 24 hours in advance, but looking under the hood looks ,much better than a foreign bank. Foreign bank sounds like a huge risk. It was not Argentina , maybe Ecuador, people commonly steal postage stamps off letters =...
