UMICH survey is crap.
NY Fed tracker shows inflation expectations still well anchored (which is what Powell uses).

A few people in this thread rage posting when the markets dropped sure had a lot to say and post from twitter. Now they are awful quiet lol
They might as well be giving them away. I leased my daughter one for college. No maintenance and free charging on campus.
1000 down 199 month for two years.

Where'd this guy go lol? Him and WVU guy must crying in their Wheaties together.
Siegel more bullish too. Wapner seemed a little annoyed with all the sunshine lol...droned on about silly UMich survey. Prof Siegel schooled him on da inflation.
Wharton's Siegel: Equity market could hit new highs and surprise everyone
I’m very happy for the rebound. Good thing they paused on a terrible idea. Hope they can figure it out before the pause expires. I don’t need the excitement.
We'll see what happens Monday with the Moody's downgrade. I'm expecting a short term overreaction and then we continue upwards at least until Q2 macro data comes in... or we get some disruptive tweets out of Washington.
Non-event. All the other rating organizations were already at this level.
I’m guessing they think (know) the DOJ investigation is not big deal.
Insiders only buy company stock for one reason..........they think it will go up.
Dr. Siegel is the best! Love that guy. Wapner is a tool and only regurgitated some UM horseshit survey. He got pissy because someone disputed his little report. The market is going to be good this year now that Trump is resolving some things.
I’m BEGGING you to keep this same energy come the next earnings call. Please for all that is holy keep up that same energy.
At this point your almost better off investing in beanie babies

I'm pretty sure these guys have buy programs for certain times with decisions made weeks or months in advance. Likely not a Friday decision.
The board and legal can approve share purchases within 24 to 48 hours. Selling is a different story. These purchases were for a reason and made due to the current news.
Very true. I was alluding to the saying:
"Insiders might sell their shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one: they think the price will rise" - Peter Lynch
A scandelous comment would be that insiders only buy when they KNOW the stock is going to go up.
It works as long as you aren't left holding the bag.Works for me as well…..as long as the buys are made public!
The sell off will be temporary. Everyone knows that the US is in trouble with its debt and not a single politician has the courage to fit it.
Captain Obvious stuff but fwiw...certainly shouldn't roil the markets, maybe a short-term blip.Scott Bessent calls Moody's a 'lagging indicator' after U.S. credit downgrade
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in an interview on NBC News' "Meet the Press" that Moody's Ratings were a "lagging indicator" after the group downgraded the U.S.' credit rating by a notch from the highest level."I think that Moody's is a lagging indicator," Bessent said Sunday. "I think that's what everyone thinks of credit agencies."
Moody's said last week that the downgrade from Aaa to Aa1 "reflects the increase over more than a decade in government debt and interest payment ratios to levels that are significantly higher than similarly rated sovereigns."
The treasury secretary asserted that the downgrade was related to the Biden administration's spending policies, which that administration had touted as investments in priorities, including combatting climate change and increasing health care coverage.
"Just like Sean Duffy said with our air traffic control system, we didn't get here in the past 100 days," Bessent continued, referring to the transportation secretary. "It's the Biden administration and the spending that we have seen over the past four years."
The U.S. has $36.22 trillion in national debt, according to the Treasury Department. It began growing steadily in the 1980s and continued increasing during both President Donald Trump's first term and former President Joe Biden's administration.
I agree with your last sentence. But it is in opposition to your first.
And now China taxing US plastic imports 75%. Here we f*cking go again.
As long as the dollar stays the default currency of the world, the national debt doesn't matter much.
+1
Wapner knows that bad news means ratings, so he constantly tries to scare viewers with the worse possible scenarios. Regardless, Siegel is right. The market is heading higher, as always. There is too much buying on autopilot nowadays.
13 years ago, Apple is trading around $80/share. He called for $2k per share. I wonder if he was laughed at then? He pretty much nails every statement in this video, even if he undershot Apple’s ceiling by a few thousand dollars. What if he’s right again?
ETA- split adjustments throwing these numbers off. Long story short Apple is up 10x over this time period.

Any reason for today's BTC pump? Looks like it wants to set a new ATH and then run past it.

Wow, that’s outstanding; I’m only up 2.12% and happy I’m not negative for the year. Unfortunately, Warren has you beat at 12% YTD.Very good idea. Thanks for posting!

Just looked, so far so good! Way too much FUD around UNH. Having the former, very successful CEO return is big.
RIVN is being cool.... up to $16.30, which is the highest I've seen it in the 14 months since I've held it. My average share price is around 10.45. Going to keep on hanging onto this lotto ticket and see what happens
