Hi @bee
Thanks for equity performance image.
I'll add here, the global etf link that was in the first post of this thread.
Global etf's, multi-sectors, active real time changes through a trading day, as well as, closing performance data. The "opi…
Dirty AC perhaps. Your unit may not have sufficient"electronic filtering" which would attempt to remove "noise" in the AC power source.
Is this now a constant condition? Being flickers, no matter when the unit is powered on.
A few things you could c…
Hi @Sven
Anyone is welcome to start a new, related thread.
The pre-market substantial "red" for the commodities area is the reason for adding to this thread.
Purely an observation of the early day numbers, nothing more. Traditional equity areas are so-so after recent positive runs............BUT, commodities getting the big face slap at this time.....8:30 AM, EST.; reportedly based on poor China economic…
Thanks @Mark
I agree that this sector has a lot of price swings. And not unlike other sector plays, the etf's being introduced has expanded a lot. My interest and use of etf's for sector investing goes back to the early '80's of using Fidelity selec…
@Mitchelg
You stated: "Pelosi should be in jail for hubbies frontrunning trades. Disgusting."
Will you please expand upon anything factual about the "frontrunning".
With the growth sectors sell off through this year into June; purchases into growt…

Presuming that Mr. Colbert is just after laughs, which is the nature of some of his show; I will suggest that the ironies of events, life and human nature are also an attempt at teaching the viewing audience.
It is my opinion th…
Hi @AndyJ
We've had a position in TAN for several months.........just after the "Putin" decided to play war monger. The basis, at the time; being disruption in traditional energy sources. Should've bought a boat load. TAN, among the many choices in…
Hi @Derf and @Old_Joe et al PBS Frontline produced Gasland in 2010 regarding the problems with fracking in the Marcellus range in Pennsylvania. The pressurized system used for fracking was pushing gases into the private/muni well systems.......…
Thanks @Old_Joe. Another cheer from this fella for technology and the thinkers who apply same, for a better world.
Remain invested in broad tech., bio-tech, med-tech., genomics; be they in research stage or selling products.
@hank
My ability to comprehend the universe is limited. Although I've tried to ponder the distances and "what's out there".....I get stuck at some point. My best sensory feeds directly to my brain have been times spent at Eagle Harbor, MI in the Kew…
Hi @Derf @Mark et al
I've looked at previous, but don't use Yahoo Finance for performance data. Perhaps one needs to "sign in" for accurate info.
My one quick and dirty view is via M*......no subscription needed.
I look at about 20 items per week…
Hi @InformalEconomist Thanks for the reminder. I've viewed Fairmark in the past but had not added the site to my current "to do" list.
Take care,

Thanks @sma3
What we've done over the years is to not withhold much tax from the monthly pension payments, knowing we will underpay for the year; but when pulling the RMD's for the IRA's in December, we withhold extra tax for these distributions. Th…
Thanks @Ben
Your summary is in line with our understanding, too. Although not of consequence; one may pay estimated taxes at any time; not having to follow quarterly ending dates, to the best of our understanding. But, your note about Jan. 15th, 202…
As mentioned previous, the correct M* link requires a rebuild.
This will take one to the M* page for a ticker.......just a few extra strokes.
---As before, click the ticker symbol
---right click Google search
---select incognito mode.......Googl…
Hi @Sven et al.............Take a peek with the below link. If you know of someone with a big ego and money to burn, I snooped around Michigan auto sales and found THIS lovely.........scroll down the page a bit to discover the MPG data. Michigan in…
@Observant1
Same with the below link.......was in place a few days ago. I used this "legacy" link to view the "old style" risk graphics, that I preferred.

Hi @Charles
What is the source and date of your image for CD rates in your opening post in this thread? Anyone else able to discovery these type of rates today?
Thank you.

@BenWP
Sorry to read about your illness. Just not fair, to have this trip and then not feel well.
Hoping you are able to have access to OTC meds for some relief.
Apparently, my writing and cognitive skills have become much diminished. I didn't realize what was written would be interpreted as establishing an overall plan for the remainder of their lives; only to offer "what to think about" regarding the marke…
@yogibearbull Thank you for the follow-up.
Their investing experience is zero, as far personal knowledge of investing choices available. This is why I mentioned a 30% piece of the monies to be in a U.S. equity etf to allow for a type of conservati…
@hank et al
You noted "home sales are falling off".
This "Bankrate" page shows current mortgage data. Scroll down the page about 1/3 for current data, which also includes a rate change chart from the beginning of this year. Select "mortgage" ; al…
