  1. THE WARNING A LA GREENSPAN....

    • Quote:"Vulnerabilities associated with elevated risk appetite are rising," added Fed Governor Lael Brainard in an accompanying statement. Stock prices are high compared with earnings, and "the appetite for risk has increased broadly, as the 'meme stock' episode demonstrated." Fed Chairman Jerome Powell also described parts of the market as "a bit frothy" last week. "I won't say it has nothing to do with monetary policy, but it also has a tremendous amount to do with vaccination and reopening of the economy."

  5. Back when the chicken sandwich was being introduced at a major chain to compete with the Popey's success,,, I suggested buying into Chicken. I could get no support here nor at the Hedge Fund.... well now we are seeing " inflation in all parts of the bird."

    Restaurant chains, before the pandemic, were able to purchase chicken at roughly $1.30 a pound, according to Rikhter. "But they're starting to see prices that are two to $2.20 a pound instead," he said.

    Wingstop Chief Financial Officer Michael Skipworth recently told Yahoo Finance the chain saw prices for bone-in wings rise 25.8%last quarter but that was lower than the 50% competing chains were paying. "You're actually seeing inflation in all parts of the bird, not just wings," Skipworth said.

    Not sure what the investment is other than to raise your own chickens!~

  8. Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation exchange-traded fund is significantly oversold and due for a bounce, but if it doesn’t get one the popular fund risks suffering a steeper decline that could spell some trouble for the broader market, says one chart watcher.

    “With the big down day yesterday, ARKK actually violated a trendline that connected some notable lows going back to September, which isn’t ideal,” said technical analyst Andrew Adams, in a note for Saut Strategy on Wednesday. “It now
    needs to recover this line quickly or risk breaking down in a possible waterfall decline.” (See chart below)

  10. I don't know if I'm just Covid focused but the most interesting thing to me is one and maybe two of this companies programs seem to affect the bodies Cycline storm the over heated response to the Covid that results in the body attacking itself. <----

    Right now at the FDA there is a HUGE LOGJAM and at least seven major programs for unmet needs have gone by he wayside as the FDA is so Covid-focused. New OK's are not happening.
    Biotech is suffering because of this.

    Just getting front of the FDA is becoming a victory in itself.
