Look at the 10, 20, 30 year picture, not the 6 month picture.


Will it go down some? Yeah.

Will it go up some? Yeah.

Will it go up more than it went down? Always has.

Will it go 'round in circles? Uh huh.

Will it fly high like a bird up in the sky??

So I got all geared up for Monday (today) but the major indexes didn't seem to change much if at all from Friday. And nothing was changing in prices. Sorry if that's socially ignorant and a bit insensitive. I'm just joking around and I respect what the holiday is for. But I had forgot or didn't realize it was a federal holiday until I noticed prices weren't moving as I mentioned above.

I guess I was looking forward to the July 4th holiday. And in my normal mode of thinking there's the Memorial Day holiday for the US stock markets. And the markets' holiday after that is July 4th. The way it was for many years. Memorial Day, July 4th. Memorial Day, July 4th. Then oh it looks like they added another one in between.

Yeah, they decided to take siesta today to recover from Father's day.

At first I wasn't sure I got it then it occurred to me the partying, drinking and hangovers associated with it. I mean most would probably agree it's more of a drinking holiday than Mother's Day. No offense to mothers or women.

And I could turn my post more on topic like with holidays affecting the markets. Christmas rally for example. A Father's Day rally? Even a Juneteenth rally? Probably not on both counts but we'll find out tomorrow.

Like Tesla? (Up 10% today so far). Pretty baffling. Crypto is rallying too..
Tesla and Crypto are basically the S&P but amplified. As the S&P goes up, Tesla and Crypto tend to go up more. As the S&P goes down, Tesla and Crypto tend to go down more.

Example: S&P500 vs Bitcoin in the chart below. It isn't a perfect correlation, but they are pretty similar in the long-term.

Tesla is pretty well correlated to the S&P500, they track one another fairly well:

Off of opening lows as Powell gets grilled. Politicians doing their politicking.

Markets were adjusting when the CPI data released.

I believe we'll see gains stay at the start of a potential mild recession as markets will be priced in for the tail end of it.

Dead cat bounce?

Pretty much but I will say that rate odds velocity has dropped. 1.5% isn't anywhere nearly high enough to get the job done so unless there's some reason to think Powell has been asked to call it off, this bounce will end soon enough like the other recent ones.

2nd quarter earnings announcements are starting very soon, and some are speculating that they might not be as bad as expected.

My prediction for the QQQ in July is $335 on the high end and $250 on the low end. Fridays close is $294. I had a 100 shares buy they got assigned from me on Friday. Might buy them back on Monday.
