  1. You could be right OptionsOptionsOptions, but I think the sell-off will be VERY brief, in my estimation better to get in early. But your scenario is certainly plausible. Regardless, get in or get left behind haha!!!

    Buy buy buy!!!

    That's complete nonsense. I know people who live there. It was elections in Russian/North Korean style. Completelly manipulated and with enough threatening and pressure on people to vote pro Russia. No Western observer were allowed.

    It was an election like they organize it in North Korea. There everybody is also "free" to vote.

  5. I'm not so sure it is "contrarian". More just like, inflation news is out, rate hike news is out, economy slowing news is out, supply chain issues news is out, and Russia invading Ukraine news is out, all the bad news possible is out.... perfect time to buy!!!

    Buy buy buy if that big red bear crosses that border!!!

    MAYBE a good trading rule\
    buy when there is blood in the streets/banker=Banker Baron Rothschild/maybe\ where we got the name of Roth tax free accounts??:D:D
    BUT with UDOW, DDM UPRO, SPY,SPXLspyg down; have to be an agressive buyer to buy below 200day moving average. Gulf war[desert storm desert shield what ever]ruined a lot of oil bulls\short war can turn out better for shorts.
    DID do a starting / plus position on SPXL,LABU, spyg, sso,VXX /FRI/ today\cut loss on spxl took profits on VXX, soxl, [loss on ddm.]
    SPYG , sso are still down 1.65% today, may sell tomorrow if they get bloody\so buying blood red or oil in a war\ may ruin some unless its a good bull blood.And a bull trend did not help the oil bulls in gulf war much. NOTa prediction

    Never buy a stock just because you think it is cheap. It is cheap for good reason. When hedge funds who are probably, aware of that stock's inherent weakness and actual value are probably, shorting it---you do not want to go against the trend. Look at the StockCharts and analyze it. All the market participants interest in that stock is in the StockCharts. Even a strongly trending stock going higher will have its pullbacks. And if a stock is very weak and falling and falling for days, chances are good, it will continue to fall. Maybe, a few days rallies to trap the longs, when it resumes its downtrend.

    Plus the markets are at sky-high valuations and all time highs right now. I have no idea what will happen (and don't trust the narrative coming out of D.C. at all), but it's not like you'd be buying a depressed asset that's deeply undervalued.
