Made some good money yesterday on Bitcoin, purchased at a low month back, and was thinking I had wasted 10k, but yesterday it climbed 10% before dropping, a nice 1k profit.

The moral of the story is when shit is about to hit the fan, cash in!
Works great til it doesn't.

But buying the dip has worked now for almost 40 years.

Honestly, every man and their dog thinks they're Gordon Gecko now, but the truth is the vast majority of them (95%) would be better off just continually adding to an Index like the SPY. It's nice to get things on sale, but buying the dip is very high-risk and you still have to be able to work out which way the puck is flying. Problem with that is the easiest person to convince is yourself.

Best dip I've bought over the last few was AMD, during the last tech collapse. Total no-brainer.

I think the best comparison of the world economy today is a fella who's been on a lot of opioid pills for decades, the withdrawal will kill him if he stops or liver and kidney failure will kill him if he keeps going

The $17 billion wipeout of Credit Suisse bondholders has not gone down well




With all this money being lost and all these jobs being lost in high tech and elsewhere, we are just waiting for the disastrous reports to be issued.

We are 10 months into declining real estate sales and reports are that there are huge numbers behind on their car payments.

This Wednesday the Fed will announce it rate stance. It can't really go 0.5 so it is expected to be 0.25 and an announcement of a hold going forward.
