Today’s Market October 2023

Not bad for Visa either. What happened to the much anticipated recession? Consumers just keep on spending.

Google down after hours. Google Cloud is not doing well.

Where is the rocket that Face Ripper Tom is talking about?

Zuck double beat.

Financial engineering doesn’t work.

Market continues to decline sharply.

It’s weird how consumers defying all expectations and spending like crazy is bad. I guess people are realizing the more savings people spend and more debt they incur, then the bigger the hangover will be.

The Ford-UAW contract is a HUGE win for the UAW. It’ll drive up labor costs,

This success could encourage other industries to follow suit. Forcing Fed to hike rate. Market is catching this scent.

I think Covid taught them life is unpredictable. The logic of spending less, save and invest for the future sound good BUT no guarantee that you won’t die before reaching there. Might as well spend and live your life TODAY. The earlier you start living life, the longer you get to enjoy life. I am buying into this reasoning. Recently I have spent a lot monies on consumables. Life is not about burning your youthful years studying, working 925, investing and making tons of monies.

My Dec QQQ put 350-355 spreads made $$. Sold today.
Still hold 340-345 spreads.

Wow! You are moving back to the Bay?

You have the evil thought of me dying from pneumonia?

TX and CA same pneumonia death rate :stuck_out_tongue:

Distorted by Covid :slight_smile: Look at earlier years… earlier than 2020.

:question:

Is this the latest fake scare from Fox News? Never heard of locals freaking out over pneumonia.

At your age I’d pay more attention to daily exercise instead. Here in the Bay the weather is always pleasant and locals get lots of sunshine and exercises. Versus in Austin it’s either too hot, too cold or blanketed with pollens. Think about how these allergens are attacking your body. SMH…

Come back to paradise. You can afford it. Live a little before it’s too late.

You have learnt the wrong lesson. Diet is the focus. Eat low carb :slight_smile: Drink water or tea. Intermittent fasting.

You need exercise too unless you plan on sitting all the time.

.

What I mean is no need for going to gym or any intentional exercise. Everyday you exercise unless…

then need intentional exercise. Everyday, you walk around in the office and home; mowing the yard; walking to and fro from the car; walking in the grocery, department and gardening stores; and walking during sightseeing.

That much walking is not enough at all. And what sightseeing in TX?

Going to Buc-ees for gas, HEB and Costco for grocery.

Everything’s bigger in Texas they say…

And so would the people following Haneras regimen.:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
