Franco,

Have you added any long positions, or are you convinced that there will be better opportunities in a few months?

I hope we have another rebound, so I can exit some longs that I prematurely entered, and reshort some more.

Franco, of course they think there will be a recession. They define a recession as a month when their outrageous commissions go down. Screw your conservative Canadian broker. Canada has been in a funk for years, and they do not know how to lose it.

I go to Canada regularly. It is predictable. Is always cloudy, there is no energy in the people, the mood is always fairly gloomy, and so on. It never changes there.
