My portfolio is down 1.7% today... which is not an unusual one-day swing at all. All year it’s been a bit of a roller coaster. I’m not going to lose sleep over this one.

Sorry if some of you are losing money today.

My 401k is gonna suffer pretty good, but the fact is, I'm proud of and happy for the UK. You gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette, right?

This tells you how many people were betting against Brexit. Currency traders are probably bailing out of windows.

By Wednesday it will be back to yesterday’s numbers.

It will rebound, but clearly the socialists have put an anchor on prosperity around the world.

VIX (my typo)

IT tracks volatility—when markets go down and investors are nervous, VIX goes up.

I lost quite a bit today. My one consolation is that Soros probably lost millions

Chicken Little, the commonly known quote: “The sky is falling.”

VIX and it measures volatility in the market.

This had to happen. Sorry if some of you are losing money today.

Not me.☺ I got out of that manipulated corrupt charade long ago. In fact, the D.C. disciples of deceit have made it so most in Middle America have little or zero faith, trust or money left to prop their rotten corruption up.

I wouldn’t buy anything until we see what shakes out on Monday. This thing has the whole weekend to fester.

No worries. It goes down for a little while, then it goes up even more.

EXACTLY my thought this morning. They’ll catch up with the log, presently.

Reports are that he has MADE a bundle by shorting the pound.

This will kick a few companies in the ass, but the overall financial and market health of England will only increase.

1. Which online stock trading company would you suggest I use? I wanna get set up so that I can take advantage of this opportunity by the time things hit rock bottom. I’m pretty much out of the stock market in my 403(b) right now, but I’m toying with the idea of supplementing it with an account I can manage more directly myself.

2. Would you suggest opening an IRA account, or a regular after-tax account? I understand the tax implications of both. I’m asking more from the perspective of you all believe the money would still be there for me in a 401(k) when I retire in six years.
