“ I’m taking it up the butt. $30k in the last 2 weeks.”

.....

Which may be terrible for a portfolio value of $100,000

Or insignificant for a portfolio value of $10,000,000

Context is everything.

Unless you really didn’t mean the stock market!

This might be the reason why NO new Coronavirus stats were released today. Every day we get new updates starting early in the morning but today... NADA!

The DOW value is driven by nervous ninnies who buy and sell on the most ridiculous news or rumors.

I might start to worry if SP500 sinks below the 200day Ema.

This is just a needed rest and healthy for the Bull market.

I think we get way more of our medicine from India than China.

Not that is any comfort. What the hey? We can't make medicine here? Give me an effin break.

A false flag does not necessarily mean that there is not a real event going on but that the virus was introduced into the population to cause major distractions and problems!!

Yup, those do supply some - but neither has any capacity to spare at present, even though the Indians are also adding capacity.

Buying opportunity! Not tired of winning.

Indeed. And some stocks continue to rise, despite others falling. For instance, Tesla which was 340/share last month and is now 650 and going up daily. No, I don't own a Tesla but the stock is making me money. There are buying opportunities on other stocks that fell but will rebound. Another example is PG&E which fell to 6/share but rebounded to 15 (recently it was 72); there is still value in their assets, despite their problems will rebound some more.

We ran off most manufacturing under Clinton, Bush and especially Obama. Add to that the overregulation (not of safety and purity, but admin garbage), overtaxation and the fun unlimited liability we have here and you can see why they bailed.

The down side is the companies looking at ramping back up in the USA also know the next president to come along might make them run right back to china.

It’s all about where you have your money. I’m an old guy and fairly heavy into bonds. Up thru last Friday I have been up, not wildly but nonetheless up and not down.

Treasuries being a safe haven plays to my positions.

That said the rest of my holdings surely took a pounding today but since I’m a buy and hold for the most part I’ll just ride it out and make a few purchases on Monday morning.
