Well be careful. I hope you are not depending on the stock market for
your retirement income. I would also hope you are putting your money
on the USA and not betting on her demise. And I would make sure I was
not putting my money into hollowed-out companies that are just US
marketing and distribution arms of Red Chinese companies controlled by
the Communist Party.

Nope. My retirement is set. I just do the market with mad money. I
just came out of a global (not international) company. I was ther eand
saw it first hand. I'm playing it pretty conservatively.

(Still sippin' that exceedingly nice zin.)

I agree that there are too many of those companies popping up. A friend
of mine got screwed by one of them trying to set up distribution
channels for automatic teller machines.

From a technical trading perspective, if the current wedge pattern from
today holds, the DJIA is moving toward 5500, S&P500 is heading down to
500. The market is pricing in a depression.

There doesn't seem to be confidence in either the current or incoming
administration to turn around this economy.

That spells money market or cash equivalents.
