The chart is interesting. Lots of spikes down, then up again. Seems to be indicating significant bottom fishing followed by brief recoveries and more bottom fishing.
? Short term trade for you, then?
"...pinning responsibility on Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York and other Democrats for refusing to negotiate and alluding to their stances on immigration policies."
So, the work-halt is nothing more nor less than REVENGE. Because Democrats are Democr…
Anyone care to share their international equity allocation? I am looking at 60% to avoid heavy tech weighting and generally high valuations.
I'm holding just about 5%, and only recently did most of that become Japanese. I'm dying to see the react…
Washington's rare earth push with (former?) allies. To counter China's dominance. Jeez, The Orange Doink bad-mouths them all, then wants cooperation. Child.

Trump’s approval rating stands at 42.2 percent and his disapproval rating is 54.6 percent, according to an average of recent national polls compiled by Decision Desk HQ.

Something I learned a long time ago in the way back after selling PRWCX when it was experiencing a slowdown. Just go have a margarita and let Giroux do his thing. I am doing so with PRCFX.
I own both, but much more of PRWCX. Call me stoopid and kick…

Big Head Tod and the Monsters spared us that "Brandy" version when I saw them LIVE, a couple of years ago. ;)
"Cortez" is wonderful stuff. And the fiddle on "Simple Man?" Delicious.
Glad for the introduction to The Big Push.

But the Irish gov't is mincing no words:
Ireland has consistently condemned the Israeli government's actions in Gaza, calling them a "genocide" and a "crime against humanity". In May 2025, Tánaiste Micheál Martin stated that Ireland was the first E…
How's the Palestinian-less beachfront resort and casino coming? (Wait, WHOSE land is this? OH, ya: they can commute from their tents and serve surf and turf to the uber-wealthy.)
one of trump's most repulsive weasels is Kennedy center prez dick grenell.
just a few weeks ago, he was 'overtalking' questions on pbs on how he and trump have put the center back on a profitable footing.
now he is busy retrospectively justifying t…
Racist/whitesupremicist/ Christian nationalist/ xenophobic/ homophobic/ misogynistic and anti semitic. Not all maghats are all of the above but he has built a big tent. A hatred for everyone. They were always out there,,, he gave them legitimacy…
Re: RCI, I have owned and then sold Rogers' rival, Bell Canada. (BCE.) It went nowhere, basically. A real stinker. I believe you made the better choice. I've been to Rogers Centre a couple of times, myself. Toronto is fun. Its airport in Mississaug…
I was surprised at the Market's reaction regarding Warsh. He had been an inflation "hawk." But more recent reports told of a man who had morphed into just the opposite, to curry favor with the Orange One.
Sabeel: 02 Feb, '26:
"On January 31st , Israeli strikes across Gaza killed 31 people, the highest day’s death toll in over two months. The reported toll includes six children while a further 30 people have been injured. The latest deaths come despit…
02 Feb, '26: Emptied the account of all FBP for a 10% profit on a day when it was zooming upward. Proceeds are destined for EWJV (iShares Japan Value.) The limit order is in. Surely it'll fall now, and stay there. Kiss of death. There's a snap elect…
Precious, that. And so convenient. It'll be the greatest and bestest renovation ever done to any edifice, anywhere. People will come from miles around and proclaim: "Holy cow! What an erection that is!"
