Roulette Reading Randomness

Perhaps you mean the Korg MS-20? It's a reissue.



I have the Roland / Studio Electronics SE-02 So I don't need it.

 

Within 3 weeks the oil prices shall rise again due to increased air travel and the stock markets will like it.


The end of the liberal doom and gloom mentality is near .

 

Oil probably won't get to where it needs to be to really be a market driver I don't think ($50+/bar), but it will definitely rebound as Russia and Saudis feel real pain as weeks pass (37% of Russian economy is based on the price of oil, 66% of the Saudi's economy is based on it as well).

What mainly concerns me is that there's a lot of other things to drag the market down for at least the next 18+ months.

-No dividends from a lot of the majors could be a deterrent for investing back into the market, i.e., "I'll park $$$ in gold until divs return", etc.

-Earnings being down from the pandemic (of course) but not returning to anywhere near where they were prior. Or taking too long to do so (12+ months).

-Any and all entertainment sector stocks will take ages to recover (cruises, disney/amusement parks, casinos, movies, etc, no one will be excited to go to any of that shit in 2020, or probably 1H/2021 mainly due to money probs).

-And some ancillary stocks to entertainment (smart phone mfgs, television mfgs, etc) will also take big retail hits as people clutch their wallets this Xmas instead of spending freely due to consumer confidence falling.

-Big corps using the pandemic as en excuse for mass layoffs that they've been itching to do for a bit throws a curve ball into everything, because unemployment has the potential to cripple any possible recovery.

Pilosi and Trump are both starting to put ideas out there for Stimulus Phase 4 possibilities, and I think we'll see it happen sooner rather than later to try and goose Q3 where both sides want it to be (Trump will want it as a cynical election boost attempt, Pilosi for the free hand out their base loves).

I'm no analyst, I'm parroting things others have said, and they're all capitalists by trade (meaning they lean right). If they're doom and glooming it, then I'm listening for sure. This one is going to be a bitch economically.

I've been short in a few things the past six weeks or so, disney being the biggest win, but I'm having trouble figuring out when I should actually buy to own. I can't sell myself on it basically.

 

One other thing I've been seeing mentioned lately is the possibility of Stim Phase 4 including the extension of any Fanny or Freddie mortgage holder (home owner) being given a grace period of 12 months on payments. No payments for up to a full year basically. That could really help consumption and recovery obviously for the critical Q4 retail period, along with a whole host of other benefits, like, not having the entire housing market crash again due to climbing unemployment.

The money will not be forgiven, meaning it's going to be added back on to the mortgage terms itself and thus wouldn't add to the country's long term debt, but it would create a huge amount of breathing room for those with low equity and large balances on homes.

We'll see what happens, but you can bet that Stim Phase 3 isn't anywhere near the last electric paddle zap they'll attempt on the flat-lining corpse of this market.

 

Now your are reading randomness.

 

Why reading randomness ?

Because it`s there.......

 

Why 70 degrees? Because almost nobody can do it. ...and in most cases if they try and fail, they die. It's known as "skiing with consequences." It's not reading randomness. It's 100% calculated. Life was meant to be lived and not experience from a living room couch.

 

70 degrees ? Just go zig zag side ways . We did that way in the Alps .

 

No, you did not. This is how it is done:



I learned it indirectly from these guys in Chamonix France when they brought it to America with Bela Vadasz and the Alpine Skills International. I was in the first class. I can make it look easy. All you did was go sideways on the couch. I would know. I know all the people back then that could do this.

 

Mark,

That is a heavy snow cover and too much for comfort . Better to traverse this particular slope in zig zag .

ND

 

The entire point is to ski past mountain climbers on a very difficult and dangerous roped ice climbing route. It's a sport with an acquired taste. If you fall on the ice climb unroped, you die. If you fall on the ski decent you die. So few have tried this stuff that it is considered a new level of crazy. It's just like free soloing granite. Only it's more like the balance beam with consequences. If Nadia Comăneci falls off the balance beam then a Romanian Gymnastics judge pulls out a gun and shoots her. That would be the balance beam with consequences.

Gambling for the bankroll is like a wienie roast at a great outdoor wilderness experience. So you blow your paycheck. Big whoopee. You need to blow the entire mortgage on your house and your children's college education to make a comparison.

 

Mark,

At what age did you give up skiing ?

 

It was 60. I need oxygen now to ski. A combination of the latitude and the extra effort all leads to almost passing out.

Made another song last night. Being stuck without casinos is a drag.

 

At a certain age it is better for lower altitudes like the sandy beaches near the ocean.

Atlantic City became the perfect recreation spot ( RT 575 miles )

 

Wow, so I'm listening to some live music from a person that was in one of my brother's bands back in the 70's. And the video moves to this song by someone I have never heard of. It's called "Wishful Thinking." That is so appropriate for here because a lot of new gamblers rely on wishful thinking as a system to win by.

 

Another performance please........

 

Reminds me strongly to London Grammar..

 

Shades of Annie Lennox.

"It ain't over until the fat lady sings."

 

"More is more." Who ever said "less is more?"
