Revision History For: Kirk's Market Thoughts

Return to Kirk's Market Thoughts

==> My Facebook " Investing for the Long Term" group with 2,048 members as of 12/24/2020.

This is my Silicon Investor board where I will post charts, ideas, rambling, newspaper clippings, etc. that are investment related (stock market, housing market and US economy.)

Note how "the media" and Cramer still are not talking about IIVI even after a triple off its recent low. Glad I made it my LARGEST position when it was cheap so I can take profits today with a new target price to buy the shares back to be announced in my next newsletter.

Not too shabby new from Timer Digest:

8/3/20: Trump Barometer
7/16/20: TSMC to Increase Capital Spending by $1B
