Regardless of their veracity, we'll be hearing about "miracle vaccines" if the market starts to dip hard.

I remember quite a few well-timed vaccine news items when the market was a lot lower. Haven't heard anything since the market rebound.
 
I have, but only from non-public companies. Pretty intrigued by the Oxford one in particular. Seems quite promising and may be our only hope to get one something together within the next 6-8 months.

Apparently it doesn't prevent us from getting covid, but it essentially eliminates all symptoms. And since it's a vaccine that has been around for awhile, safety is not really a concern. So they can fast-track it in a far safer manner than the other candidates.
 
All it takes is one miracle vaccine slated to be on the market late this year or early next year and my thesis will change completely... I know you mentioned that could be sell the news, but that only works when the news is expected. A miracle vaccine would create short-term euphoria.


With that said, I just laid out a very (unfortunately) unlikely scenario.

My sell the news was more "We're re-opening for business"...which actually didn't happen like I thought, so I did endure some days of pain.

Long term RRSP and short term trading account back to ATHs. TFSA account is mediocre.
 
Went bearish, nailed the top of the bounce. Set my stop and will happily break even on it if that's what it comes to.

I know it wants to wait for me to buy before it has one of those down $10 for just a day moves they all have. My waiting game isn’t working at all.
