Someone said he's on Facebook.

I wish someone would ask him to come back.

I am keeping an eye on Raytheon and/or a healthcare ETF to buy into, but definitely not overvalued tech stocks. I don't think free institutional gambling money is coming back anytime soon to pump those.

Negatory.  I'm certainly not going to unload during a trough.

US markets have been in total FOMO mode for close to a month now, and just now seem to be returning to kangaroo-market mode.  It is probably too late.

Oddly enough it hasn't been driven by retail investors, accordiing to a CNBC clip I saw a few days ago.

To respond to Squeeze's question, I've seen a few predictions of apocalpyse, a few saying liftoff, and a bunch saying bumpy for another year.  If you have funds parked waiting to deploy, I might suggest waiting for another dip.

Or better yet sell short dated puts against it the cash.  Earn 12% a year and automatically buy a dip.  :)

Retail money has been pouring in to equities. 

Run away, run away!

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
