So I read an article today that has spooked me off of the banks (not enough to have sold Citi if I'd kept it where I bought it, but enough to not want to buy it at these levels). It also paints a potentially scary picture of the broader recessionary developments in play. I was able to read the whole thing on FB, so unless you have a subscription to the Atlantic, you may need to find it elsewhere, but worth a read for sure:
Every time I see a JPOW pop or sell off, I'm on full on caution mode. I think you said it in the past.. .The JPow fakeouts can be FIERCE. And really they're more common than not.
The range on the SPX weekly candle is a mere 52 points. Looking at the past weeks, we are owed another 40ish points of range - thats either 3140 or 3273. Presto has his popcorn ready after eating a mother fucking gorgeous amount of wings for dinner.
Fun fact that I just found out today on an account that I never open. I have a baby amount of APHA in my RRSP with a 4.24 average.
Okay it's not that fun really. But for all the shit talking I do about APHA I'm not sure why I have any. All I do is shit talk them. I won't sell though. It's small enough that if they somehow one day get yuge, I will do well.
You know as soon as I saw buyers come in after JPOW's remarks I got a weird feeling that those buys would result in bigly regrets. Now I didn't make any plays because it truly felt like a casino yesterday and it was just a hunch more than anything... But man. Would suck to be balls deep in calls right now.
