lmao if they try to do it next round. Jerome, "Well, you see, we mumped up. Now I must lob this grenade at you". doing a burnout in his camero and then slamming on the brakes and then immediately doing another burnout. but, like, opposite. you get the idea.

When, I wonder, will we get back to the point where car dealers are truly desperate for customers?  I miss the days when they demeaned themselves regularly.

If you are looking for a new car it won't be long at all. Few months. Used may take longer.

Yeah, I have a freshman in high school right now who will need a used car at the end of summer.  Hoping that the new car market has stagnate inventory by then, and collapses the used car market.  I could push it to November or December, but not beyond that.

A lot of used cars have come down quite a bit in price. I think used car prices are roughly 15% lower now than they were a year ago.

Wait if it’s a good time to sell your car, is it also a bad time to buy a replacement?

Yeah. The real reason it's a good time to sell your car and buy another is that the jobs outlook indicates that interest rates are going to go up and stay high for awhile.

Hella short squeeze on Friday. Do we hold SPY 410 on Monday or retrace back to 405? Glad I'm a price action player. Draw me levels and play whatever happens. My current favorites are XOM, COIN, and SPY. Can usually get good movement daily from one of them.

$APPL. That run up was all a squeeze and short coverings. Shorts were covering and price kept going up. Once covers were done, bloop. Rejected right off $157.38 like clockwork. Then you get a little range trading before dropping down to next price level.

I'm getting more and more bearish. Going to increase my ETF shorts over the next week in the rollover.

I think we're definitely going back down now that inflation appears to be sticky. Who could have foreseen that. I saw someone comment that January would mark market highs for the year. I'm not sure about that but I'll probably DCA more heavily late spring summer with a hope for a strong end to the year.

We're teetering on a big downturn. Hopefully tomorrow's House hearing will be a bit dovish and we can rip a few points. I'm swinging option calls for SPX.

JOBS STRONG!

Counterpoint, 3.6% unemployment and wage growth slowed.

Banks melting down because of contagion worry from SVB. Putting this here instead of investing thread because of Fed stuff.
