AAL jumping +11% is like an elephant playing hopscotch
Got to be in it to win it!All these huge gains I'm seeing will be gone by close tommrow..... next week at the latest.
Im still too scared to play the game.
I think synthomer had been oversold.
I made a buy today. Unfortunately not early. I'm up a bit.

There is a part of me that thinks Putin is about to pop a small nuke in Kherson and the markets are going to implode. But meh, least of our worries if that does happen!They must be assuming the war's ending. How true is that tho idk.
I think it's quite possible interest rate rises will be eased rather quickly.
The primary effect of energy prices going through the roof is high inflation numbers. The secondary effect is economic drag, which will work to reign in inflation in. I just don't see that we need to endure a crushing, drawn-out recession in order to fight inflation.....once the initial sharp increase filters through, all the YoY numbers are going to soften into the new year.
I don't think we are in any danger of going back to a stock bull run any time soon, but I think there's a good chance that the bottom is already in.

people really believe a tiny war in Ukraine is the sole reason inflation happened? it jsust speeded things up surely.They must be assuming the war's ending. How true is that tho idk.
