Short QQQ (Nasdaq 100 etf and our benchmark) The chart with the weekly bars is still not oversold. Valuations are fair for a normal economy but there are businesses that are shutting down. The entertainment industry is shutting down almost all live events. The national health experts are recommending people to avoid travel, restaurants, bars, etc. Until the trend is to reopen shut down business I can't see a reason to be bullish on stocks. schrts.co/NRPePkVN |

right you are, clark.
the SP500 PE is 18. historical MEAN is 15.
that means that we have 15% or so to go before we reach AVERAGE valuations.
look out below.
I probably don't need to say more, but I am going to. for over a decade now, people have been talking about these multiples as if they were the new norm. but I just don't buy it. it is not NORMAL to have stocks trading at 20x earnings. that is simply not normal, it never has been, and it shouldn't be. it is too rich a price to pay.
but I am a value guy. so this has just irritated me for decades. this idea.

djAdvocate takes the lead with a triple digit gain on day one. ModE96 is second and clarkrl2 third. I am going to recheck all the opening prices tomorrow.

Clark, can you do me a favor please...when you have time. MSN says that DUST closed at 5.71 rather than 5.68...that would drop my loss a tiny bit more. Thank you!

kadee75 Yahoo historical data has the close at $5.68 for DUST yesterday. Thank you. I looked in 2 places & they both had the $5.71...but it doesn't make any difference now any way. |

Noon (Tex. time) (Fri.) 20 Mar. 2020 Good morning, everyone. I thought I might join you next week at the starting gates; however, I'm thinking I'm going to be on the sidelines for another week. When you get old, things just happen a lot slower. Anyway, the bear count is still too bearish for any "bull market". Arch. |

I am going to ride NUGT long again, just like last week.
I see a pattern forming in gold, I am just not sure it is stetting in, yet.
