Well I suspect after a good decline here we will be bully again for the remainder of the year. It seems to be the pattern on election years. The shell game will have to end eventually though I'm certain.

And yes on the confusing brains thing. It was my problem as well. Made huge money on the initial down and then gave it all back not believing that we could go up again or should.

I finally realized that my poker strategy and stock strategy should be the same. Play very few hands when the odds are steep in your favor. Run from the vast majority of hands. Forget about flush and straight draws and praying at the river. But above all else muck things quickly when they are not behaving. Everyone knows you need to take small loss's and not turn them into big loss's but it was much easier said then done. The ole it will turn my way tomorrow routine.

No more of that nonsense for this idiot.
