But I have residence in Britain so the Dutch might not be able to keep managing my account. Or rather, to offer guarantees good enough to have me keep it with them.


I'll take it off your hands. Special price, just for you  :shifty:

You guys let me know when I should start buying stuff.


Worst of all with the timing is that probably I will be forced to close my little stock account at the end of the year due to it being in the Netherlands and I am being a subject of Boris Johnson.

For what it is worth my financial guy isn't going to look at buying until early April.  He was selling into the blip of strength last week.  If I miss the front end of a recovery I am ok with that.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah, we're back to the dreadful days of...Dec. 2018.  :hmm:

If the losses keep coming, then I'll worry. The VIX being as high as it is is concerning, however.

On the bright side, if this keeps up, it might take away Trump's only realistic shield for 2020.
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.

Yeah. I look forward to hearing the brain-dead pundits talk about the inevitable "Biden Bounce".

Admiral Yi

New financial buzz word seems to be "leg in."

I legged in today.

I mean if we are going to have another economic collapse I guess it is better to have it right before the election than right after it.

But if we could not have one at all that would be preferable. Stupid infectious disease.

Agreed on all fronts there.

In order of preference:
1: Virus ends tomorrow, no more deaths, market recovers, everything's great
2: Market keeps tanking, Trump loses hard

If you have a lot of cash on hand, what would you do?  Is it time to be greedy when others are fearful, or is there still plenty to be fearful about?

I posted about this upthread.  My guy tells me not even to think about buying in until beginning of April. If he changes his view he will let me know.
