My gosh, CWH. Every time I pick a runner I feel like I have to sell. Rarely let it ride.
Conversely, reports of slow or no travel is worse.cryption said:
I'm not sure travel is an indication of a strong economy - since people are funding a lot of it using credit cards these days. CC debt is at an all-time high. To me that doesn't scream healthy economy. Layer in people living off a CC just to afford increases in prices. Yes people are spending - but they're spending money they don't have and won't be able to pay back.
You're probably right, being bearish hasn't worked out for me so far this year. Someday the debts will have to get paid - but I suppose today isn't that day. I just can't wrap my mind around the economy being healthy with so many individual indicators screaming to me things are bad and we're just waiting for the bottom to fall out.Farmer @ Johnsongrass, TX said:Conversely, reports of slow or no travel is worse.cryption said:

Travel is a sign of an affluent population.
People will always spend money they don't have.
I agree with you, How does this end well?? but we have to keep in mind history sometimes repeats and inflation can take years to realize.cryption said:You're probably right, being bearish hasn't worked out for me so far this year.

The June Short Term Energy Outlook(STEO) now "projects" US oil production will average 12.61M bpd for all of 2023 (up from 12.53M bpd in May STEO). So far in 2023 there have been 11 weekly reports at 12.2M bpd and 10 weekly reports at 12.3M bpd for an average of 12.25M bpd over the 21 week period.
To meet EIAs new "projection" of 12.61M bpd, US production would have to magically jump by 655,000 bpd to 12.86M bpd and stay at that level for the remaining 31 weeks of 2023.
Not possible...... not even close EIA. IMO, US production will tick down below 12.2M bpd in the coming weeks. EIA continues to have a clear agenda..... to purposely "overestimate" US oil production..... in order to influence oil markets and drive oil prices
While I agree with you longer term, watch this video it will open your eyes a bit.

There is a gap from Friday June 2 on $SPX in the 4230's. How should I be assessing that for trading this week, if at all?

Looking at MARA and its in a little Darvish box since Mid April. Buying around $9 and then selling or doing CCs around $10 could be an easy 10-12% increase. I have $8.61 area as support so lose that I think is when I would cut. Seems to be bouncing between the 50 and 200 EMAs in this box as well.
Filled some shares this morning at $8.95. Going to give this a try but with the Coinbase and crypto stuff could cause this to fail. We will see!
