Taking a break yesterday, but we have apple climbing again. Investors want in on this defensive and growthy tech stop. Facebook up 4. 7 after facebook and twitter both blocked President Trump, a video on covid misinformation. Facebook getting a bounce on that considering they had not taken a strong action in the past, something some investors wanted to see. Making it interesting, when we take a look at the vix on the nasdaq 100, it is higher. That tells you going into the payrolls report or some expectation volatility tomorrow could pop. David stocks may not be moving much yet, but there is action on the bond side. My question is how low can the 10 year yield go. We are well into negative territory on the real yield.

Twitter interested me because donald trump is not able to use the persuasive power of twitter for any of the programs he promotes whether the dismantling of obamacare, building the border wall or the tax cut. Those are more unpopular after he pushed for them than before. It is not successful in the unifying tool of his base is successful but doesnt have the power fdrs fireside chats did so to control the media and throw distraction up he has been singular in his success doing that.
