Market Fades into the Close, As Expected

That was a shitty close. For what it’s worth, the dollar getting gimp’d to the tune of 0.90% v the euro today was a major plus factor. Both oil and gold rallied, and even bonds held up. Nevertheless, stocks did not outperform this week, so that’s that.

 

 

I added to both TLT and GLD and look forward to a long weekend of debauchery and wayward drinking. What do folks like you do on the weekends? I imagine your housing tenements affords you with some light entertainment, such as bingo or hallway pizza parties?

Ciao.

    Think about this over the weekend.
    Not only is Trump looney but he is also a prophet able to predict future events.
    Observe this tweet from 2013.

    “Danger-Weiner is a free man at 12:01AM. He will be back sexting with a vengeance. All women remain on alert.”

    Is he a loony prophet or a prophetic loony?

      But how fucked up is that Secret Service Agent Gets 20 Years For Underage Sexting

      or Anthony Weiner might be facing similar sentence for something where NO harm was done (!!!), yet Podesta Molesta and the rest of the Washington politicians gets to physically molest kids and nothing is done.

      How fucked up is that? Just turn you damn phone off and it’s done. No harm done. But luring, kidnapping, abusing, sacrificing innocent kids is apparently OK.

    Typically a visit to the local cinema. Friday or Saturday night open several bottles of wine with family and guests. Vivino is a great app for tracking and rating great wines, if you’re into that sort of thing.

    Smoke meats, fix the mower, and continue that stupid basement man cave project.

    I’d rather drink, take a nap and sit in my hot tub all day…

    I haven’t experienced a weekend for about 10 years, the only sense of weekend I get is from traffic patterns and certain stores. Retired at 46 yrs. Ha!

      Better get busy, get a job and hit the gym. Research shows that the longer you work the longer you live. Doesn’t help much to retire at 46 if you die at 56. Just sayin’

      I have a job I never want to retire from. The only reason I would retire is if I became frail or feebleminded.

      It’s only work if you’d rather be doing something else (Yogi Berra).

          I’ve always wondered myself. The older active people I’ve met seem to be more “with it” than the TV dinner couch taters. Although that seems like common sense…. my neighbor is in his 90’s. Walks every day, still works a few hours a week. I went to grab one of his landscaping bags he was pulling down to the street one night. He had a ton of them and it was getting late. He basically looked at me like I was a fucking moron for thinking he needed help. Ha. He’s a pretty awesome guy.
