How is Grads still here? He was an April fools joke that didn’t go away on April 2nd.

Let’s hope this year does not mirror 2018.

well my one and only thought on this article is, how do you take an article serious when the author states this: "Think 10% nosedive, or more. In other words, a classic collapse."?
Year to date. Where will we be in December?

Agreed. Remember the last 10% drop the market recovered from 5 months ago. Naysayers thought it was the beginning of the end. Not saying there is not a drop coming, there always is.

Where is @Classic Daycruiser ??? We survived Memorial day! He was nearly 7000 points off his prediction. ;)


18,500 by memorial day weekend.

Economy is good, profits not so much.

I’m not much at predicting. I also don’t get hung up on what number the Dow is at. There’s opportunities at all levels of the Dow.
At my age I am more conservative.

Oh yeah, if you’re in retirement or are within 5-7 years of retiring I think a more conservative approach is a good strategy.

I’m 15 to 20 years from retirement, so I don’t worry too much. I stay aggressive and use dollar cost averaging primarily, with some individual stock purchases when I see a good opportunity.

If a person is no longer actively adding new money to the pile, I’ve got to think that will make it a bit more difficult to manage the portfolio to achieve desired goals.

My golf game is getting better and the stock market moves down. Time to go boating.

The market is down but it's all relative, I'm still up over 15% for the year so I don't think there is reason to panic, still I'm disappointed that Tony's golf swing seems to have lost it's magic. :D

perfect timing for a stock sale. payday; time to buy stocks at a discount :)

If TCHB starts taking a golf cart and selling trinkets across from the country club, then we know the market is done. :eek:

Let’s hope the market turn soon, or I will have to go on the PGA Web Tour!

Should be an under par day based on today's market. If only the game were that easy...

Today is a pretty big hit. I've actually made more in the market this year than I have working but it wont take many days like today to eat up those gains.:eek:

I wonder if the msm will take some of the blame for the big drop. I watched some financial guys on msnbc this morning that were just absolutely pushing fear of a recession with just some speculation, no facts. My dad said he saw some other morons on the same chanel a little later doing the same thing.
I know there are signs with the bond market and commercial lending, but these guys were flat out pushing fear and didn't mention either.

Liquidity is king when this market corrects. Maybe the used boat market will correct itself too! . I got the itch for a gently used toon.

Posted this in another thread. I updated the spreadsheet to include current day's change.

Some of you like this kind of analytics stuff. Here is a link to a quick spreadsheet I created. You can input your stock, ETF or Mutual Fund symbol (upper left: cell B3) and get some recent results:

Check Yourself: How is my stock doing lately?

  • The rest of the spreadsheet is locked, but will be updating live (when US stock market is open).
  • Performance is price change only. No dividends are included.
  • If a mutual fund symbol, keep in mind that many of them paid cap gains distributions in Q4, which is not reflected in this performance.
Feel free to check your symbols and try others.​

How is the golf game @TCHB ? After last year, you must be near scratch. :cool:

Updated the spreadsheet in post 52 linked in this thread. Data includes to 2020.......

Looks like we have arrived.
Trump and O’Cornell’s healthcare plan in full action.
Looking forward this summer to the Chinese tariff kicking in, and the Saudi’s & Russia agree to restart reaming us again with high oil prices.

I predicted 16,000-18,000 in a previous thread, I hope it won't go below 16,000 but at this point it's wishful thinking.:eek:
If it goes down more, I wish China going down the toilet too. :mad:

I’ve been trying to find a room in Maui, and use a couple weeks worth of my Hilton points. The place is sold out all April.
:(
