Is it War or Peace

Depends what your data source is

Headlines scream Qatar bombed, massive Israeli attacks, and Trump's ultimate threats, and yet…

Oil is not really up

Gold is down $1000 from its top

and the Euro and the Pound are stabilizing

And let’s throw in a strong performance of the Yen

Japan and Europe are heavily dependent on energy from the Middle East so a continuation of the war would indicate a massive sell-off and continuation of such

So why is it up today?

Directly opposite the headlines

The wild card, and there always is, the HUGE weakness in financial markets this morning, which could indicate business as usual from a post-Fed announcement

But there is a timing aspect to this, and the headlines came out BEFORE the markets open at 9:30, so I think they are managing the fear here as opposed to the reality

Many wonderful stocks in the Indexes are strong and performing well, and from my observation, the markets are bottoming and not the beginning of a “Crash” to end all “Crashes.”

This morning, have a look at BW, BWLP, LINC, MOS, CF, and CB

There is no shame of having drawdown and there is no judgement in asking for another viewpoint

You learn from everyone

Enjoy the day and TAKE NOTE we are living in a legendary time
