Not sure if this is an attempt to troll me because I said something you didn't like down in politics in defense of Freddie Foresight being allowed to have an opinion on American politics.... but this is a serious thread with long term investment ideas and your post above makes zero sense. To me at least.
Soooo..... either explain what you're talking about, or I'll have the mods delete both it and this post.

This is in trading, the two are kept separate. Second, I do not know what post you are referring to.
These are the weights of a predictive model that I use and are quite profitable. if you choose to use them, I think you will enjoy the results.
Ok.... well fair enough. Now.... what am I supposed to do with these numbers? Because without a more detailed explanation, I have no idea what you are talking about.
They're not fibs obviously, so exactly how do they apply to trading? Which btw.... this thread is not about. Maybe I should re-title it Elite Investor? Or... "ideas for Cramer"--- but either way... what is one to do with these numbers?

California AG says he may sue to stop Kroger from buying Albertsons
WASHINGTON, Oct 12 (Reuters) - California Attorney General Rob Bonta said on Thursday that his office was concerned about Kroger's (KR.N) proposed deal to buy rival Albertsons (ACI.N) for $24.5 billion, and may sue to stop it.
Bonta said the decision has not been made, but added: "Right now there's not a lot of reason not to sue."
Bonta cited as concerns the prospect of higher prices for consumers, lower payments to California farmers, the potential for creating food deserts and possible adverse impacts on workers.
The deal, announced in October 2022, would create a grocery chain with nearly 5,000 stores. In September, the companies announced a plan to sell more than 400 grocery stores to C&S Wholesale Grocers in an effort to get regulatory approval for the deal.
A Kroger spokesperson said only non-unionized retailers, like Walmart and Amazon, will benefit if the merger is blocked.
"In fact, Kroger joining with Albertsons will mean lower prices for customers, secure union jobs and more food directed to hungry families, with 10 billion meals committed to people in need across America by 2030," the spokesperson said. <---

OK. time to review OP's performance since Jun 2023
Kroger - it has been in the range from 43 to 50. It will continue to be in the range
until the chart says otherwise.
Walmart - it has been trying to be on the uptrend. Now it is going sideways.
So is Kroger still a steel compared with Walmart?
Anyway, both charts are equally choppy and ugly.
I wouldn't touch such a chart.
There are other better-looking sexy curvy charts to trade.

You mean "steal"?
Yes. I said it's a long term play. If you read the thread, it's range-bound because of the Albertsons merger.
And fwiw... the SPX is down nearly 5% over the same period. WMT up .3% KR down 3.2%
Check back in a year.
Where's your stock picks at btw?
All you ever do is post the exact same posts. Blah blah blah... the chart.
Never one pick. You don't even make calls on the ES for god sake.
Armchair QB. Put up or shut up.
Probably time to get back in.
