I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.
Will almost certainly be buying quantities of ntf PRWCX and FPACX at Merrill within the month, or so I hope, and then similarly TACF and JQUA at Fidelity.

Absolutely merciless.
sure, but mercy or anything like it is not the point, not when cruelty explicitly is, making public sector workers wake in fear and revulsion each morning, libtard tears etc etc

You’re not old enough to remember how much colder and snowier winters were in the 50s 60s and 70s? Seriously ? Lots and lots of data on that, some of it just recently. Do you recall all the huge West Coast fires, the scale and scope and tempera…
Yikes! the sky is falling. Everybody grab their tinfoil hats. MFO has become MSDNC.

Generally a good topic but has low correlation to what markets do in the next 1-4-16 weeks. A trader like me is interested only in what to do now and disregards politics and economic indicators.
There are concerns all the time. My idea is to be inve…
anyone who makes their decisions based upon that liar needs to have their head examnined. Krugman has never been right once in all the things he wrote in the NYT.

Just today Mump1 is publicly trying to (re)rehire bird-flu researchers and senior AT controllers.
And yesterday Mump2 asked his Cabinet if anyone was unhappy and they all applauded.
Truly bad times ahead.

@FD1000, I was comparing returns the last few period, and want to ask you of the bond players here why for the last several years you did not simply combine FIGXX or similar at Fido with STIP, instead of putzing around w PONAX and all of the other b…

Nah, we should put our trust in a guy who backs Putin and regurgitates Russian propaganda - i.e. dictatorship accusations towards Zelensky.

...And around and around we go. Never address the point being made. As Robt. McNamara said in "Fog of War:" "Don't answer the question you were asked; answer the question you wish you were asked." Shit.

@FD1k, so layups over threes as a principle.
(I'm a successful threes shooter --- on the court but only there. Off-court, have had to restrain myself to look for layups.)
I'm fairly certain that the Fed and/or Jerome Powell will be blamed for any market downturn or recession.
Oh, I do not think so, not at all. I think the tide is turning, a little bit. Not that Destructoman and Leon and the Muskenjugend will ever fac…
