stock market was up today...

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Since @evillawyer didn't post a bad tweet about today, I will.

I want to see back-to-back up days and net gains for the week as a whole. No doubt with 3 more sessions, one or two will be declines. However seeing that Boeing plans to restart 737 production in May, that's encouraging.

What is with your sick love affair with Boeing?

What is with your sick love affair with Boeing?

Calm down.

Boeing is a component of the S&P 100 and the Dow 30. They employ well over 100,000 people around the world and their suppliers employ tens or hundreds of thousands more. Their revenues were over $100 Billion. They have a multi-year backlog of orders that they can not fill. Their value has declined by around 70%. When they are doing well, it's a strong indicator that the global economy is as well. BA is also a potential security to buy in a market recovery.

Maybe you haven't noticed, but they've been in the news lately.

Boeing is kind of a big deal.

The 5th biggest S&P 500 gainer in the pre-market (6%+) is some company called Boeing. Has anybody heard of them? I wonder what they do?

OK, well who do you believe creates the market's momentum (either up or down)?

It's relevant because it gets at the issue of whether day trader dude can beat the market.

Depends. It can be either professional or retail. Professional traders/investors are, well, professional, so they tend to be more attuned to trends as they start happening, while retail is stereotypically late to the party. Of course, lots of professional investors are buying/selling on behalf of their clients, many of whom are retail investors who might be invested via mutual funds, pension plans, etc..

"Smart money" or "dumb money" is only known in hindsight.

Sell at 21,300. You'll have an opportunity to buy back in sub 18K. Market bottom is a ways off.

I know.

But I have a lot of "To do's". Unfortunately they are in the "I don't wanna because they suck" category. That's why they are still "To do's."

Heh. I can relate. Finishing up the last season of The Sopranos... somehow failed to complete the series back in the day.

Worth while endeavor.

Loved that series. Binged watched it after it was over. Unlike some, I liked the ending.

They have made a plane that hasn't flown in over a year.

Great series. Make sure you report back with your feelings/view on the ending.

I thought it wrapped nicely. I enjoyed it.

The 737 will fly again.

China already has facial recognition technology being enabled on the population.

You are exactly right. Here's a picture from last year in Tienneman Square, and this is only ONE light post. They ALL look like this:

They used to make really good airplanes.

Who's gonna take delivery? There are more than enough airplanes parked around the country to take up any shortage of seats. The industry is being reset right now to a degree. I would think if they start production in May and start cranking out airplanes, they are gonna have to give them away.

Not going to have to give them away. The airline industry is being bailed out and the big 2 had an order backlog less than a year ago approaching a trillion dollars.

Not to get all politically incorrect, but that's got to be some amazing facial recognition software and processing to distinguish between over a billion not so diverse people.

Back to back market gains for the first time since February despite Bernie trying to piss on the fire.
