    My wife is no longer able to drive so I took her name off our auto insurance policy. The premium went up $302. The world has gone insane.

    1/10 I’m becoming more and more concerned by how the market resembles 1972, when the Nifty 50 one-decision growth stocks, heavily-weighted in the averages, went up but almost nothing else did. Because that one didn’t end well at all.

    The stock market generated Breakaway Momentum today for the 25th time since 1945: walterdeemer.com/bam.htm This is a genuine breadth thrust. It means (IMHO) we're in a bull market. How long it lasts, and how far it carries, is something we will know only in the fullness of time.

    Bear markets have two components: Price and Time. Price takes your money. Time takes your patience; all those rallies that turn out not to be the beginning of a new bull market, even though so many people think/wish they were, eventually just wear almost everybody out.

    The stock market is a leading economic indicator. The stock market will tell you what the economy is going to do; the economy will not tell you what the stock market is going to do.

    When the market bottoms you'll have gotten tired of trying to call the bottom.

    Dinner last night at my (upscale) retirement facility: Resident #1: The stock market’s been really bad recently. Resident #2: Yes, but it’s “oversold”. I am not asked about my market thoughts, nor do I volunteer them. (Ever.) And so life goes on here at Sandhill Cove...
