You’re underselling the extreme fear component. IIRC it was at levels not seen since 2008-2009, if not worse.

I wonder how anyone here actually makes money. Most people on this board were acting like fricking retards.


Black Monday!!!

I sold all the MSFT I bought below 380 today for a nice return. I still kept all the shares I had before this latest downturn. Made a quick profit and dumped the profit into SCHD like always do when I take a quick profit. Long term investor mainly but when opportunity hits I take advantage but love SCHD for the safety.

Been a heck of a year with swings. About 3.7% down YTD.

It’s not the years, it’s the miles.

Greed returns to the Stock Market


Maybe among retail investors… IMO, this is a head fake, just like in Q1 2000. And I still bear the scar tissue from that lesson. Not a good time to be piling in to equities …. there is still much near term volatility

The USD Index has been bouncing just below a critical major support level of $100 since April 12th …. which is what I would consider a “sustained” breakdown at this point. Currently at $99.60, it needs to break above $100 and sustain the upside of $100 if equities are to breakout.

The index could just as easily erode to $94 and take the equities market with it. IMO, the USD Index battle is a key indicator to watch before piling in heavy in equities.

Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful. Profit.

Correct me if wrong but hasn't it typically been inverse correlated (stronger $ hurts S&P 500 returns)?
Let me guess "this time is different!"
