Should be another wild day in the markets. Futures were up over +700 points a few minutes ago.
About a 1400 point swing.

See you guys in the morning :xf.grin:

I had lunch with a financial advisor yesterday, he told me, do not let your money go, hang on to it, there was selling-selling-selling Thursday, very little buying though. I decided to get a second opinion, i was told the same thing, to keep the money i have and hold and he said this isn't over yet, he said projections show a level out and then another drop. I am holding my cash.

I have been trading stocks and sometimes options since 1984
There are not Always crashes. that is a dumb thing to say.

Good. In 36 years you have learned the difference between a correction and a crash. My bad, careless with words.

On the other hand, your reading comprehension sucks. I said "there are always rallies in crashes." And you interpreted that as "there are always crashes."

You either know what you are talking about or you don't. Millions of Americans have traded stocks for as long as you. Not many are rich from it, though the markets have been very favorable for almost all that time. Some guys have been f*cking for 36 years, and still can't do it properly. Though they all think they are good at it.

Crackpot Democrat Ayanna Pressley Accuses Republicans of Spreading Racism by Saying “Chinese Coronavirus” and Hurting Chinese Restaurants (VIDEO)

Ayanna Pressley is giving Mad Maxine a run for her money.

The Massachusetts Democrat lashed out at “racist” and “zenophobic” Republicans for using the accurate term the “Chinese coronavirus.”
She followed that up that stupid statement by blaming Republicans for people avoiding Chinese restaurants in her district.
What an dope.

And she made the comments during a hearing!
This is today’s Democrat Party.


Rep. Ayanna Pressley: “Since the beginning of the #COVID19 outbreak, we have seen not only the spreading of the virus, but also a rapid spreading of racism and xenophobia. We have witnessed it in fact at the highest levels of the Republican Party fanning irresponsibly these flames. One colleague tweeted quote “Everything you need to know about the Chinese CoronaVirus.” My district is home to nearly 32% foreign born residents with more than a quarter immigrating from Asia.

This painful rhetoric has consequences. Restaurants across Boston’s China town have seen up to an 80% drop in business. And I believe this has to do with the rapid spread of misinformation and paranoia. It is critical that we stand against these inciteful messages.


https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...avirus-and-hurting-chinese-restaurants-video/

- So...She's a DEM elected by a VERY large majority of DEMs in Boston.
- Is she saying that her DEM constituents blindly listen to REP tweets?
- Is the 80% drop of Chinese restaurants due to REPs racism? How can that be? There isn't an 80% majority of REPs in Boston?
- Could it be that she's seeing the racism of DEMs in Boston---much like the racism and sexism they've seen in their own DEM party--those that didn't vote for Booker or Yang or Harris or Klobuchar or Warren or Castro to prove their non-racist bonafides??
- Is she saying that only REPs were patrons of Chinese restaurants to begin with?---which would be the only way she could blame REPs AND claim that there was an 80% drop in patronization of Chinese restaurants... and that would only show that DEMs were such racists that they didn't patronize Chinese restaurants BEFORE the Coronavirus.

It would be nice if people would actually take a minute to THINK about what these hypocrites are actually saying....

"You either know what you are talking about or you don't" <Right back at ya

Lets talk about what you said "there are always rallies in crashes"

When you replied to me you knew I was speaking of the market as a whole when I called it a crash.
You even cited 1929 so you too I ass{u}me were speaking about the market as a whole as well.

So I replied to you speaking of the market as a whole not as individual securities.

Yes rallies are way more common then crashes. Whenever the market turns up from any kind of a downturn it is a rally. But like I said a downturn and a correction is not a crash.

You put the two together as if they were always linked together. They are not.

As I said Crashes are very Rare unless you are talking about individual securities which can happen more often.

You can usually find some kind of a rally everyday somewhere if we are talking about individual securities and/or sectors even in a bad market you can find one somewhere.

Now about my time trading. I have known brokers who have been in the markets for decades yet they are not rich. Just because one can trade for decades and they are not rich doesn't mean they do not know what they are doing. Many play it very safe, some take a lot of chances.

Nobody has a crystal ball. If you have one please tell me where you got it so I can get one.

I have made lots of money and I have lost lots of money.
I took a bath with the 2008/9 crash so I have been playing it a lot more safe since then.

The mid 2000s was very good. My best day I made $17k I use to do a lot more day trading. That can be very risky. You can really lose your ass day trading. And always remember the 30 day wash rule.
I try to stay away from day trading these days and I just go long in stocks.

And today is another wild day as I said it would be. The Dow has already swung from a high of up +1300 to only up +200 right now.
Lets see if they try and paint the tape at the end of the day like they did the last two Friday's.

Good news for America:

The University of Michigan’s index of consumer sentiment fell by 5 percent to 95.9 in early March. Economists had predicted a steeper decline to 95.

For context, that is lower than the high of 101 hit in February but above where sentiment stood just last October.

This is an impossible number to know. Highly doubtful this applies to healthy people who recovered.

The world is sick... sick and tired of all these viruses coming from China, thanks to their horrible, unhygienic and disgusting eating habits.
89532350_3117461591606195_3892936014674526208_o.jpg


Just like over 50 years ago Mao Tse Tung enforced a 1 child policy for every couple, to slow down their population explosion at the time, so too should Xi Jinping enforce a total ban on eating, bats, snakes, dogs, cats, bears, shark fins and dozens of species of wild animals, many of which are close to extinction thanks to their cultural culinary habits.

China’s government placed a temporary ban of the wildlife trade. That is NOT enough. It must be a permanent ban.

The Chinese government allows 54 wild species to be bred on farms and sold for consumption, including minks, ostriches, hamsters, snapping turtles, and Siamese crocodiles. Many wild animals, such as snakes and birds of prey, are poached and brought to state-licensed farms.

Here we see caged Civet cats for sale at a market in southern China, at the height of the SARS epidemic. It's believed that Civets transmitted the SARS virus to people. Today, civet soup remains a delicacy for some in China.

And I haven't even started talking about the millions of Elephants, Rhinos, Tigers and other wild African Wild animals being poached to satisfy strange Chinese cultural habits.

here is what gets me, they have been eating these wild animals , just as every country eats sorts of game meat, none of the meat they eat is new, they have been eating it for 200 years, then the Chinese come out immediately that it was a bat, two days later it was a cobra snake, two days later it was some animal that is almost extinct.

What does "Paint the Tape" mean?
It means market manipulation.

An illegal practice that traders like to say when market or a security goes up right before the end of the day and it looks suspicious as if it was manipulated.

I shouldn't say down when "painting" usually means up. but you can paint red as well as green.

Usually the sign is heavier volume at the end.

The one thing that makes me concerned is that NK says they have no covid 19 cases and no deaths.

You know that is the biggest lie in the word today and I hate to think of the horror the way NK maybe treating the sick :xf.frown:
