Re: DOW at 24,600--what the fuck is going on?
^More jobless people = DOW going up
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78838836


Dow stopped reflecting jobs to its rise years ag

Think about it.

Dow and all the others markets reflect only how big businesses will / are doing

With the current scam we are seeing all small / medium businesses get put out leaving nothing but big retail / food / etc

If the little town has a McDonald’s and a Taco Bell competing with mom and pop restaurants what happens when the economy crashes? I know

The McDonald’s and Taco Bell’s will weather the storm with the billions they have and wait out until there is nothing left of mom and pop shops.

Amazon booming
Walmart booming
Costco booming

Little stores not so much

Dow is a total disconnect from reality

hiding
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31180111



Excellent comment!!!! The big companies reflect The System. The Mom and Pops reflect US. Our family try to support the Mom and Pops - we have NOT been going to the chains during this SCAM, but the small companies have such low margins, it may not be enough to keep them going.
 Quoting: Blue State Rebel


Yes
One poster above said mom and pop businesses will comeback
True
But it will take many years
That is if the sheeple don’t stray from corporate

I don’t have much faith
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31180111


But it won't be mom and pop anymore. Next generation Millennials will be running the small businesses and wow are they amazing.

They have new ideas and are way more efficient and practical then the old days. They know the customer base and they can change direction in an instant.

The thing about the old mom and pop was that they depended on Tradition. On a certain way of life that would NEVER change. Well the world changed. The mom and pops are obsolete for all practicality.

Many millennials have home businesses already, Etsy, ebay, all from basements and garages. They sell everything from wheat sprouts and fresh produce to gadgets for everyday use. Some amazing stuff. Local Delivery Service will also be booming.

I'm optimistic.

The stock market is a racket. They control it fully. They’re trying to suck people back into or creating false confidence in the worried folks who are invested in it then out of nowhere they’re going to liquidate it and leave the sheeple high and dry.

The fact that it’s been going up and up despite the lockdown should make (smart) people realize it’s a game and has no basis in reality. We are all phucked.

Lies are temporary in relation to Truth.

The numbers and the colors are constantly changing.

Those are lies which constantly change and Truth which does not is the supply of power to the demand for power by lies you believe are Truth.

The selling that rammed the DOW down to the game over point was massive.

The closer to game over the more power you require to reach game over.

Then after all the gains in three years were wiped out.

The selling pressure was at maximum potential.

On March 23rd.

Two months from the Wuhan lock down.

Then the buying pressure at that level was enough to cause all the leveraged sellers to begin turning into leveraged buyers.

The crude or simplistic description.

When you short a stock.

You sell more stock than you own.

Like lets say you have 10,000 shares of a stock.

You use that as collateral backing your loan of stock you do not own.

Lets say you own 10,000 shares.

I use my 10,000 shares as collateral backing my loan request.

Of your shares.

I Sell 20,000 shares.

As the shares drop in value I earn the difference.

Lets say I have 10,000 shares at 1.00

But then Sell 20,000 Short at 1.00 and they collapse down to 0.50 due to selling pressure.

That is 20,000 Dollars

I then cover or buy back 20,000 shares at 0.50

10,000 Dollars profit.

Then buy 20,000 shares for a total of 30,000 and borrow another 30,000 for 60,000 total and sell 60,000 and the price drops to 0.24

But then buying pressure forces the price back up to 0.51

It causes the trade to have to cover and buy 60,000 there and this leads to higher prices and more short covering or more and more buying pressure.

What was being imploded down to maximum potential is then forced to explode back up towards maximum potential.

That is basically what has been happening since 3/23/2020

Technically selling pressure will take over from buying pressure and it will collapse back down to the last point and continue past there and then expand back up again.

The path to getting back to normal where everyone basically feels back to normal is going to be far different than any of you can imagine.

Wuhan was locked down 1/23

New Years ended on 2/8

The Dow peaked on 2/12 then traded sideways until 2/19 where it almost peaked again then down from there to 3/23

Then up from there to here so far.

Oddly enough I'm making more money that I ever have. The quarantine has had very little effect on my company. We're actually getting TONS of investment inquiries and looking to double or even triple our client base before end of year.

Some segments of the economy are actually doing very well. You just don't hear about it because good news doesn't sell.

Yeah, it sucks if your business requires large numbers of people to gather in a single place (Disney is TOAST). But if your business is distributed and can work in groups of 1-5, then the future is yours.

Plan accordingly. Lots of stuff is going decentralized.

Death to the old dinosaur (work in big buildings) model! Death to the Globalization business models where we outsourced slave labor to save a penny.

Even factories, like meat processing, will down size and become more localized and less international.

The market took a beating when this "pandemic" was gearing up, because no one knew what would happen.

We quickly learned it was wildly exaggerated, and people have been buying back in aggressively.

People saying it's "funny money" have nothing in it. It's not funny to me if I cash out and retire tomorrow--it is, in fact, very real money.

Pay no heed to doom prognostications or financial advice on here--that much I can say with 100% certainty.

Who knew oil could drop 50%, you could close 90% of the economy, let tax revenue fall through the floor and give out free money...yet the Dow is up...we obviously don't need a functioning economy any more... maybe we could all pack in work...

The market price is what the market will be in X months. So the market fell at the start of the pandemic looking a few months ahead and a slowing of the world economy. Today, a few months later, looking a few months ahead, it sees growth and prices reflect that. If tomorrow some new developments indicate negtative effects, then the market will drop.
