It does seem to me that right now its the most irrational I've ever seen.
Because of that speculators have done really well... many of them haven't been through a real crash. They'll be the first ones to bail in the inevitable next crash, according to history.
Most of them don't even know what value investing is. They're all momentum speculators.
I started investing too late to really make money in it and learned the key to it the hard way Make sure you aren't forced into selling at the wrong time. If you can hold through downturns and buy companies who actually make money you're pretty much guaranteed to win long term. Nobody can time the markets. Even science fiction writers and film makers get predicting the future way WAY wrong.
But the best thing historically to buy first is a home. Hard to lose on that long term. Ya gotta live somewhere. |

Apple Watch is a very important part of the Apple ecosystem. I was thinking that they might open it up for the Android system but it probably won’t happen for a while. |

Apple Must Embrace This Word in Tackling Climate Change
Tech giants deserve some kudos for embracing clean energy and recycling, but real emissions progress means reducing consumption and reusing the products they’ve already made. |

Seems counterintuitive that short-savant Michael Burry should give up his position, and long time champion Cathie Wood moved funds out of it, just before this run.
Too big to fail now? Not sure I would bet on it… |

Not going to happen. Until it gets REALLY bad. Seriously people don't even try to slow down to hit a red light green... it would only benefit them with less gas consumption and their car lasting longer and actually getting them there faster.
Its hardly lifting a finger... but no one is going to sacrifice THAT much, which isn't even anything, just to save the world from catastrophe.
So I'm getting pretty nice dividends that are super safe from Exxon and way better than any bank. I'm pretty liberal but when I see that attitude day in and day out when I drive in my job... well I KNOW people are not going to stop consuming, not even those who complain the loudest. So the price of oil? Not going anywhere much.
I love Curb Your Experience where the wife is an ecologist but choses a giant mansion and a limo. That is just real life... the genius of Larry. |

| To: NAG1 who wrote (211043) | 11/6/2021 10:59:30 AM | | From: NAG1 | | | | | Apple has held up well since the earnings "disappointment." Closing the week over $150 is definitely a plus. There are lots of things, both to the upside and downside, that can really mess with the valuation right now so we will need to see how things play out. I don't have any clue to the short term but as long as the economy stays decent, I see Apple growing into its present valuation before it makes its next assault at an increasing share price. |
