Yes, it may be sold later, but at a higher price. This is the cheapest it will ever be because this is our main event of each year.

This Year’s Predictions
* Apple will hit $750
* Dow will correct > 15% in the first quarter
* Obama will start a war / military attack on a country (but still keep his Nobel Peace Prize)
*Maui ’14 will exceed expectations
Pretty much as expected. Some stocks were hit. Some rose. All-in-all the Dow closed up 25.88 at 16,504.29
The Dow closed up 25.88 at 16,504.29
AAPL closed down 5.57 at 554.52
Another drop in AAPL. This will likely end today and start reversing in 2014.
The VIX was up 1.10 at 13.56
The VIX keeps running higher as people are expecting something big to happen the first day of the new year. This seldom happens. The only real move I remember happening the first day of the new year was 14 years ago when the Tech Bubble burst.
Often the first 2 or 3 weeks of the new year are dead still. I suspect things will be a little different this year with Yellen making her first speech as Fed Chairman.
The ETF closed up 0.70 at 102.51.
The TLT is in a tight an unpredictable range for the last week or two.
GLD = 115.39 down 1.73
SLV = 18.85 down 0.42.
TSLA closed dup 1.32 at 152.44
HALO
The stock closed -0.03 at 15.22.
Yesterday
Nothing. We did close at 16,504 yesterday, which made me look like a genius. I had predicted 16,500 at the end of the year for most of last year. I also reiterated it in September when politicians said the world was coming to an end, the Dow was at 14,800, and the whole world was bearish. Sometimes one gets lucky. Don’t overestimate my intelligence or ability to predict the markets. What little talent I have is because I am hedged and God given.
Today
Same as yesterday. The only difference is I expect something weird in the last hour, but that might not happen. I have already been right once this year, so I may be pushing my luck for twice.
PLEA
Please tell someone you know that they do not have to be a victim in the government created stock market bubble. I don’t care where they learn to hedge from. Send them somewhere else if you like. Buy them our BASICS book for Christmas. Buy them someone else book But help a friend out.

Too True To Be Funny
(Never a joke, but always funny)

WTF? WTF? When will enough be enough?
Attorney Stuff
DISCLAIMER (Seriously!)
Trading is almost as much fun as black jack in Vegas, but without all the annoying distractions of free drinks, Broadway shows, gorgeous people with low morals, and free buffets. It also has about the same odds of success, so when you lose all your money you wont have to walk past a smiling pit boss. Even Bruce Wayne lost everything with options in The Dark Knight Rises, and Superman keeps his day job at the DailyPlanet newspaper.
We did NOT get any TARP money, so we are not aligned with any politician. We have the utmost respect for our attorneys who tell us any attempt to trade is throwing money out the window, and investing is risky business (still a great movie). Past performance doesn’t mean a thing. The future is even scarier. There is no guarantee the sun will come up tomorrow. Random Walk and everyone associated with it promises absolutely nothing. We guarantee nothing. We wont ever do anything right unless it is an accident.
Random Walk only provides education (and a great cup of Starbucks if you visit our office). If you want advice please consult an attorney, licensed broker, Joe Kearnan, tax consultant, investment adviser, etc. Random Walk, LLC is full of morons, dolts, has-been(s), chromosome damaged individuals, thieves, losers, and carnival barkers. Any attempt to find a semblance of intelligence or integrity in Random Walk would be a waste of time.
When reading this you acknowledge that you agree to hold harmless Random Walk, LLC, its employees, independent contractors, authors, managers, owner(s), spouses, children, cousins, friends, bail bondsmen, and favorite bartender. In fact, you agree to grow up, accept some responsibility for your own actions, and stop believing the media that sells you on how nothing is your fault. You further agree in the antiquated and lost values that America is the land of opportunity and not the land of handouts. You agree any loss in the markets is a result of your own actions as we told you NOT to trade without consulting someone other than us.
All paper trades are SOLELY for example and to illustrate how certain strategies could perform without the benefit of hindsight and back-testing. You agree NOT to trade based on anything we say, do, write, advertise, etc. If we were smart we would be teaching high-school math and making the really big bucks. You agree to abide by the laws of your country and that it is legal to accept this transmission.
Every attempt has been made to ensure accuracy, but we are clueless. As a result it would be foolish and impossible to assure the accuracy of any numbers and/or come close to writing a sentence that is grammatically correct. You agree not to get on our case emotionally, physically, spiritually (no Voodoo dolls please) or legally when we screw up. We are doing our best to keep up with evolution, but it is a fast race and we are falling behind. If any of this stuff is too hard to accept please let us know and we will remove you from our mailing list and short term memory.
Random Walk deeply cares about each and every student. We try to keep the selling of products to a minimum. We believe our students are a result of attraction rather than promotion. This does NOT mean that the more attractive you are, the more we promote ourselves (in general).
Our products are written ONLY by floor traders, fund managers and retired floor traders. They are expensive and unique. That does NOT mean they (materials) come on a tablet of concrete from Mt. Sinai. We do NOT sell “special software”, though occasionally we give some out for FREE to our current students. If you enjoy buying software please go to Best Buy. If you are still reading this, you will likely be the first to have gotten this far. No guarantee for accuracy is made.
Because of the proprietary nature of our materials and the ease of electronic copying, all sales are final. There are far too many people who have no problem stealing our materials and putting them on torrents or copying them. These are the same low-life, selfish, whining, half-wit hypocrites that would cry like a newborn with a wet diaper if someone stole their car radio. They have to pay for our materials before stealing them, and live with their karma (and our legal team). Yes, we have caught a few and now have one person working on detective work solely.
Sales are far from our largest concern. If you are a whiner, complainer, or generally unhappy with life please go to someone else in this industry who values money over happiness. We can point you in the direction of other firms that only care about the bottom and top line. Jerry Springer can also point you in the right direction. Besides whiners are a total distraction from the awesome group of students we are fortunate to have. We are truly blessed and thank them (provided that is fine with our lawyers). “Thank yous” are only handed out in countries where legal and void where prohibited. If your country does not allow “thank yous” please refrain from accepting it. This disclaimer is copyright material and not a joke.
