LMAO.... no sweat Macs.... all good.... I'm not going anywhere... just will keep data and thoughts to myself..much better than share at times..... the sheep will always fall together as we know it. Not referring to the current situation at XPE... but, happened before and always will..... the beautie is that too many do not understand the market forces... and that's where some make the biggest money.....

..."First, do not be invested in the market all the time. There are many times when I have been completely in cash, especially when I was unsure of the direction of the market and waiting for a confirmation of the next move….Second, it is the change in the major trend that hurts most speculators."....

...."Remember, it [the market] is designed to fool most of the people most of the time."....

..."I believe that having the discipline to follow your rules is essential. Without specific, clear, and tested rules, speculators do not have any real chance of success. Why? Because speculators without a plan are like a general without a strategy, and therefore without an actionable battle plan.
Speculators without a single clear plan can only act and react, act and react, to the slings and arrows of stock market misfortune, until they are defeated."....

..."
The unsuccessful investor is best friends with hope, and hope skips along life’s path hand in hand with greed when it comes to the stock market. Once a stock trade is entered, hope springs to life. It is human nature to be positive, to hope for the best. Hope is an important survival technique. But hope, like its stock market cousin’s ignorance, greed, and fear, distorts reason.
See the stock market only deals in facts, in reality, in reason, and the stock market is never wrong. Like the spinning of a roulette wheel, the little black ball tells the final outcome, not greed, fear or hope. The result is objective and final, with no appeal.
I believe that uncontrolled basic emotions are the true and deadly enemy of the speculator; that hope, fear, and greed are always present, sitting on the edge of the psyche, waiting on the sidelines, waiting to jump into the action, plow into the game.
Fear keeps you from making as much money as you ought to.".....

"Asset Allocation Rebalance" this could be as big as one could imagine...... the calm before the storm Macs.....
