Vacuous
or
Rhetorical

I would never stoop to such tactics, that would be vacuous and rhetorical. We need rhetoric, it makes the thread go round, I have no vacuum at all. Now that I have proven my innocence and the necessity of of engaging in rhetoric I will cede the field to your patience and wisdom.
I rarely vacuum even though I know I should, ask Rocks, she will tell you.
Now here is a wonderful quote which should be on the quotes thread but it isn't because it is on the Tiger thread.

“There is no insurmountable solitude. All paths lead to the same goal: to convey to others what we are. And we must pass through solitude and difficulty, isolation and silence in order to reach forth to the enchanted place where we can dance our clumsy dance and sing our sorrowful song - but in this dance or in this song there are fulfilled the most ancient rites of our conscience in the awareness of being human and of believing in a common destiny.” Pablo Neruda

"Um, aren't dramatic rallies a normal symptom of bear markets?"

Down today, at least so far. I'd like to add that volatility is supposed to be a sign that a market is looking for direction before breaking in one direction or the other. But we know these to be rules of thumb, not always reliable.

Yesterday's recovery and today's downer may be suggesting we are entering such a period before we can understand that a new mid- or long-term trend is underway.

I'm still siding with Larry Kudlow on this. Many things outside of securities are still pointing up. Couple of examples...

Often news and history get blurred and sometimes the news tries to actually (they believe) change that history. The Khashoggi killing prime example....MBS thinks he can bury it and get thru the month of headlines but history will clearly show him as the uncouth brute that he is. To think that economic cycles just end with time and not the actions of those who have the control and power to implement the procedures that cause that end is not one that I share. History shows that we mostly determine the outcomes......dynasties ,empires come and go often on a stupid decision to assassinate or eliminate a perceived threat like Khashoggi. or a little further back the consequences of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand or the 1000 years of order that the Roman Empire brought to Europe ending in the assignation of Romulus. How would Britain fared without Churchill ?

Our first premier....skip the dishes is right.....!
Declared insane[ edit] By 1895 he was declared insane. One of his more notable eccentricities was the founding of a hot food delivery company to prospectors in the Klondike Gold Fields. The difficult logistics of this service scared away investors and ultimately provided its downfall. He died in Victoria at the age of 71.
