%% The markets did uptrend well when the US gov got shut down last time. DAL is only down about 44% ytd, so maybe that gov loan explains the 00.40 cent upmove.?? As far as DAL blaming the virus, thats possible, but does not explain their earlier bankruptcy,with no virus. Tech stocks/ETFs + LUV are doing much better. So maybe there is an advantage to not taking gov loans + not going bankrupt when there was no virus?? Our conservative run state did well this year on sales tax, so I dont know what happens if the gov does not give them more money?? LOL...……………………………………………………………………………………………….
I'm still waiting impatiently for a market drop. Next week's banking earnings releases will be a potential trigger. So many negatives re stim bill stalemate, China trade conflict, covid escalates, election, unemployment etc Ar least inverses are down again, looking for pivots SQQQ TZA UVXY SDOW etc, or upside in solars and cannabis next week
What to you is a market drop? Please define it. So September was not one? How about March of this year? Q4 2018? At what point will you be satisfied the "market has dropped"?
%% TECS went up a bit, on the gap; but as of 9;27 CST, may not have time to trade it/ because ofscaling in orders/long tech ETFs A quick trader could have gotten some good change.
one way, probably, would be for 100% of the population to consistently wear a mask and wash their hands for about 8 to 9 weeks. Then the infection rate should drop below 1 and we can almost go back to business as usual.
I realize it is a little late to to be bringing this up, but of course we could have done what the other countries did that successfully beat the virus, i.e., have had a nationally coordinated effort based on Science starting last January. Oh well.
NASDAQ +32.2% Vs Small cap Index -1.9%: a sign of aging bull market. (small cap index is not leading).
