A little hard. It looked to me like it was twitter. Like watching twitter for 90 minutes. I did not stick to my original plan. Baseball and bed the two bs i stayed up. I want my time back. I didnt stay up for that long you can play this game with me i felt dissed. How much words can you come up with disappointing, disturbing, disspiriting, distracting, disheartening. Disgusting. You can probably go there disspiriting i looked it up thats exactly what i wanted to say. After all those disses, i wound up with disinteresting thats when i was gone right . It was a let down ly say that. Some people like to watch the fighting it is hard to turn around from it if you were somebody who was tuning in. In my core pin of both candidates, nothing really changed. Mike Wallace Chris wallace had a tough job. I guess he did okay. Im not going to nominate him why do you bother having rules for a debate if nobody is going to bother to follow them kill the rules or give the moderator a kill switch. Both s
Questions, i think, heading into this new month is can big tech stage a big rebound because september was fairly dismal. Apple was down more than 10 alphabet down 10 microsoft down almost 7. Amazon down almost 9 facebook down 10 y do you see all those pull backs represent consolidation. That up trend remains thoroughly undisturbed. I really dont think profit taking and consolidation the month of september end up being meaningful i could be wrong thats the way i would think about it 42 of stocks in the s p five hundred are above their 50 day more than half of the market is not. The consumer stock, Consumer Discretionary looks incredible equal weight retail looks great. Anything that has to do with the consumer looks pretty darn good. The big trends are all in place. Target, new highs. Walmart looks like it wants to break out again. This morning i heard 11 of americans are now already paying for walmart plus they rolled this thing two weeks ago.

Were learning in the wake of the shocking ipo yesterday where buyers seemed indifferent to the share price if you wanted to buy snowflake, you had to sell something else, which triggered a selloff in the nasdaq, and that spread today, with the dow dipping 130 points, and the nasdaq losing 1. 27 . A lot of people call into question what theyre doing paying such high prices. We saw the spectacle of a stock trading at more than 100 times, not earnings, but sales.

And amazon and facebook that was high for the whole entire group, pete theres no doubt about it facebook being probably one of the ones watched most closely, i think. When it comes down to apple, the reason that stands out is they had a record q3. You look across every part of their business model, their eco system and it phenomenal the growth is there. The double digit growth is there. I think the big surprise coming in iphone because people were looking at a number far less. The real key is service, not only the growth but look at that revenue. Add that with wearables and you get almost to 20 billion youre getting the other side of the equation and far better margins. Thats why i think apple still has plenty of room to the upper side because they have room in the wearables, the services. The servi

J j does really well the gold run is a combination of Central Banks printing money and also a pest misimistic view on is going to happen with covid we try ceos who are very excited about their vaccine the more people say this is going to end and at the same time we have a huge spring board because of all the money being printed. Things will be good. David, ive never seen a moment where you have a coiled spring if good news happens, but if you dont get a vaccine, just get ready for another one of these things in a couple months.
