2015
We have a LOT of cool things coming out in 2015, but the office is forbidding me from opening my mouth. I can give you a hint…..It all stemmed from student’s suggestions.
We will let you know in a week or so when we have all shook 2014 out of our heads.
1 MORE YEAR
LASTLY ā I have signed up for one more year, most of because of the great students we have. I really enjoy you, and will quit the moment you do.
Great Morning !

BOOM !
The market opened up on Friday with the expected +50 Dow move higher that I predicted. What I didn’t see coming (but was warning all week could happen) was the subsequent sell-off. At about 12:30pm the market turned down, and rested before taking a massive drop in the last hour.
I SUSPECT that this was lack of liquidity and would not have happened had the majority of traders been around during the day. The end of the day was just stupid, and I suspect most of it will come back.
TODAY
Unless the dynamics of this bull market, the longest running one in history, has changed overnight, the weak and uneducated (don’t know how to buy a put) individuals selling Friday will regret it by the end of the next week ā if not today. We just have not spent enough time above 18,000, and markets just don’t die because they hit a huge number.
I will add one caveat….
The start of the new year is always strange, and can often lead the way to how the year goes. The year 2000 was such an example, falling 8% the first month 16% by the end of the 3rd month.
ALSO…..(Below)
About 2 months ago I stated that the US can’t help itself, especially with this president. I really thought that we would open a window for Russia to sneak out of by secretly getting into the fight with ISIS as a team. I might be off in time, or all together wrong on that, but it looks like we will take our foot of of Putin’s threat.
This is why we are so balls out long RUSSIA (RSX) in POT. It is causing wild PNL fluctuations, especially with crude and currencies falling (USD higher). But we are long it when their market is down 50% for the year.
