Predictions, AKA wild ass guess. I haven’t a clue. Bluestocking quoted JP Morgan “‘’It will fluctuate.’’ “. I like that so I’ll stick with that. I don’t see anything right now that makes me think the overall uptrend is over though.
Of course if it were that simple we could all become hippies and not worry about anything.
What we do is we predict the sun will come up and we predict that if we put in a good day's work we eat better than if we don't. Predicting the Dow at 36,000 in 2025 is a very safe bet because the big industrials have been doubling every decade for over two centuries. There are some other very safe bets for the shorter term but we can't know everything. If we knew everything life wouldn't be nearly as much fun.
