I am doing fine, thanks to the 7/21 paying attention to the Force and acting on it for a change.

Even took a small dive into a weakly leveraged ETF that shorts the Russell 2000 which I sold today for a numerically small but very emotionally satisfying profit. It's the first time I had ever done anything short.

There will be more bounces and wild swings. I will buy this short ETF more massively the next time and sell it when the real stuff hits the fan.

Patience is a virtue, to repeat a cliche. I don't think we are yet done.

Uncle Abner said the person, that had took a bull by the tail once, had learnt sixty or seventy times as much as a person that hadn't,

and a person that started in to carry a cat home by the tail was getting knowledge that was always going to be useful to him,

and warn't ever going to grow dim or doubtful.

Chances are, he isn't likely to carry the cat that way again, either. But if he wants to, I say let him!

Mark Twain, "Tom Sawyer Abroad" [1894]
