Update....

Looks like the Hedgers must have woken up, and turned on their computers.  Pre-market DOW down now about 1,6%. That's an implied additional near 1000 point drop.  Another point that I had almost forgotten....  During the pandemic mini-crash, the DOW had dropped as low as 18K.  Is that the floor?  Possibly, but I don't want it to go that low.

Admittedly, I don't follow him all that closely, but have gotten the impression that whatever Cramer says is the opposite of reality.

I understand that there is a Reddit group that calls themselves something like the Anti-Cramer, and they have made a fortune shorting what Cramer recommends on TV....

Dunno. I checked my meager portfolio, and it went up in value (mostly mining concerns).  :shrug:
I have always liked resource stocks, companies that have real hard assets vs those having patents, software and intellectual property/arrangements that one cannot readily understand.

Easy for me to understand copper, oil and gold much better.

5). I always like to pull silver linings out of the storm.  One, if others have not noticed is that oil is down to $60/bbl.  We sure don't like what is going on right now, but do you know who is pooping in their pants more?Putin and Mullahs in Iran.  Break point profitability at last glance for Russia is $50/bbl, and Iran Upper 40's.
Putin could easily be put in a situation where he strands his army in Ukraine, if $50/bbl oil can be sustained for a few quarters.

If Iran makes good on its threat to attack the US base in Diego Garcia, it will not worry about the price of oil as it will not be selling any as the US will have destroyed its port.

Count on it.

Peaks and valleys....  Seems there always some underlying sentiment driving the market, that don't boil down to nuts and bolts business fundamentals.  This is important when trying to parse the market looking for like entry and exit points.  This is kind of simple way to do it but....  Chronologically working backward with the DOW as an example

Apr 2025- Tariff crisis- 37K
Dec 2024- Post Biden Euphoria- 45K
Aug 2022- Height of Biden inflation malaise.- 29K
Jan 2022- Biden fake money infused -inflation reduction act- 36K
Mar 2020- Pandemic mini crash- 18K
Dec 2019- Peak of Trump Mini-Bull Run- 28K
Feb 2015- Peak of Obama 2nd term market stagnation- 18K
Jun 2013- End of post '08 crash recovery- 15K (infusion of QE I, II, and III)
Mar 2009- Trough of the '08-'09 crash- 7K
Jun 2007- Peak of Mid 2000's mini- bull run- 13K
200-2002- Outside DOW NASDAQ and techs suffer a close to 75% correction, including overall drag on DOW during same period.
May 1999- Start of about 5 year period of market stagnation- 11K. see NASDAQ above
1995-1999- Clinton/Gingrich bull market-  4K to 11K

VIX at open was at 60...  It only reached 50 during the Pandemic crash of Mar 2020.

Good chance we see some circuit breaker action today.

Ohh the irony...  Canucks are threatening a WTO complaint.  Hope they start with their 90% Dairy tariff.

Ingenious if he does, and uses it as a country by country based agreement over that 90 day period.     Also, market is back down 600-ish.  Kind of pointless to do play by play.  This has become a crazy roller coaster today

All moot...  WH just announced there will be no 90 day pause.  Too bad, wish he would have. For 0rderly process.

Wonder who promulgated the rumor.  They need to be investigated for market manipulation fraud.

Spewing the woke rhetoric these days makes China look like a weak paper tiger and not a serious player.
The Republic is lost.
