    Might be voodoo, but I'm on the lookout for an IT low around first week of May. But it definitely could be fugly going into that low.

    Fundamentals *are* strong.

    But like today (big earnings beats; market down ~1.0%), the economy that drives the fundamentals, and the market (the wagging tail on this dog), are importantly different.

    The market went up on cheap cash and *hope* for earnings catch-up.
    The earnings are here ("Finally!"), but the cash punch bowl is running dry.

    Whoever doesn't expect a reaction here???? Yowsa. :confused:

    (Yeah. You knew that. In a way, we *all* knew that.....)
    For 2018, I predict....

  6. It means one thing, wall st. is dumping every little chance they get. You have been warned. For you investors, don’t look at your 401k statement for the next few months.

    I was gonna warn you to close that TVIX... I got busy trading something else and forgot.
    It just fell off a cliff. Knew it would. Hope you didn't lose too much.
