Me jimcramer. You have a pessimist you have the camp that believes the latest covid outbreak is no big deal because the mortality rate is lower and then the super pessimist that say spiking cases mean no sports, no going out and millions of job losses these four camps, i have to tell you, they are going to they are at war every single day. Including this one, the dow gained 557 points, s p advanced 1. 34 and nasdaq inched up 4. 9 one can win because there is so much money going into stocks the recovery plays dont go up as Fund Managers need to sell one group to swap into another and thats why the dow stocks did much better than the s p that did better than the one scorching nasdaq this is highly unusual but it makes sense if you think out market in terms of competing camps. So who is winning . Or who won today i like to use the sore thumb index as in which stocks stuck out like a sore thumb today . Let me give you todays examples f ....

I said so at the time and im saying it again because it is that important in fact, tonight i want to go one step further and immunize you against false fears, thats right, false fears that cause so many people to panic over the past few days. I have to go back to history i think it was an f. D. R. Moment where the only thing you had to fear was fear itself so many of these worries were totally groundless those fears set up the situation we havent seen since the many bear market bottoms in december.

Those were negative readings when you see those kinds of numbers, its a reason to buy, not a reason to sell why . Because when you get numbers that weve had in the last week where all the weak ....
And for independencets 202 6280205. Lots of issues in the news to talk about including the unrest in ferguson. The fallout from the fraternity at the university of oklahoma. Hillary clintons personal email use. The letters sent by republican senators to the leaders of iran. What are you interested in this week . On the ferguson issue the front page of the usa today, how to fix ferguson is the headline. The Washington Times has the same photo. This is what the st. Louis postdispatch is writing about. Here is their headline. The ambush is still fresh. In a spot yards from where two Police Officers were shot hours earlier, the shootings escalated and already jittery city. It was an issue that the president addressed. This is what the president had to say. What has been happening in ferguson was oppressive and objectionable and was worthy of protest. There was no excuse for cr ....
