To continue....the older I get the more I realize that EVERYTHING is simply...PERFORMANCE ART. It is greatly entertaining to watch the human race. What an amazing daily show....if you can step back from it and not get caught up.
The markets today....you would think that yesterday NEVER happened. DID IT? Or was it all a dream? Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq push higher after sell-off ADP jobs report returns to growth https://finance.yahoo.com/news/live...-jobs-report-returns-to-growth-235720142.html
Yes...we are ok. ADP: Private payrolls show modest rebound in October The country’s private employers added 42,000 jobs in October — the first monthly gain since July. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/adp-private-payrolls-show-modest-rebound-in-october-134112187.html
Good old PLTR. Palantir's epic run-up gives the market a reason to sell https://finance.yahoo.com/news/pala...es-the-market-a-reason-to-sell-120040393.html Good news is....bad news. Bad news is....bad news. NO news is....bad news.
I am totally FLAT today with only GOOGL and NVDA in the green. I see that the DOW is now red. AND....I am having problems with Stockaholics....posting, editing, and connecting.
I dont care how the media and companies try to spin it......this is the start of the impact of AI.......just a forerunner of the huge avalanche that will come. On the good side for investors....it will create..... MASSIVE PRODUCTIVITY GAINS....for business. I have no interest in fighting progress....even if I could. I am an INVESTOR....not an activist. AI-washing and the massive layoffs hitting the economy https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/04/white-collar-layoffs-ai-cost-cutting-tariffs.html
Probably good advice for many people. After years of outsized stock market returns, it’s time to reassess your portfolio ‘risk exposure,’ top-ranked advisor says https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/05/rebalance-your-portfolio.html
Today....we are STILL in the shadow of yesterday...in the markets. So I am not going to spend a lot of time thinking about the short term. I will sit and wait and do NOTHING. YES.....I continue to be fully invested for the long term as usual. AND....I am way out there in the ocean.....off my surf board.....dragging it off the little underwater reef that I am stuck on for a day or two. I will soon be once again....RIDING THE WAVE.
The internet is real GLITCHY for me today....especially this site. BUT....the DOW has now gotten over the little bump it hit earlier today. All the big averages are now green. AND....I have a nice small gain right now in my account...approaching a medium gain. A good time to bow out and let the day run as it wishes.
Noticed the same thing today. Also, some other difficulties with it a few days ago. Seems to be getting worse. Makes me think....one day it is just going to quit. It is just this site that I have noticed here lately.....nothing else.
Some issues....site very, very slow to connect at times, or not at all. Weird stuff with trying to post or quote....disconnections, etc, etc. I will likely move on if it continues to persist. Very frustrating to try and use and participate when it is not functioning properly.
I'm just a passenger on this boat but it made me think are we better off jumping ship before it breaks in half and sinks to the bottom? I believe the majority of the site traffic is this thread so I would imagine the site owner would have some sort of motivation to retain it. Time will tell.
