Hope it continues. Endless growth is unsustainable.

The retail sales decline was in large part because people are paying less for gas. Stock market traders are herd animals, and about as intelligent. When one gets scared, they all get scared and vice versa. I don't think there's an original thought to be found anywhere on Wall Street.

There was a 0.8% decline in spending on gasoline which contributed to the dip; but, consumers didn't spend the money saved at the pump elsewhere.

It's not how you start, it's how you finish.

It's going to come tumbling down like the flimsy house of cards that it is soon. Creative destruction.

I know right. We should move to Europe or China ASAP.

It will bounce back to a lower high then erode again.
Just as its done since May. I'm going back in when it's sub 13k.
Can't short with my 401k

You won't be able to run. It will be a global phenomenon.
