    Happy 4th to you, Muck! Here is some fun stuff on the market. Year to date: Nasdaq +11.9% and the DOW off 8.05%. This is the second largest divergence since the formation of the Nasdaq in 1972. Other 4 largest divergences in order of magnitude were in 2001, 1973, 1973 and 2002. In every case, the second half of the year was down significatly. Just a heads up, buddy! Enjoy your 4th. I am.

    Happy 4th to you, too. Of course, my experience is that whenever I
    recognize a historical pattern, it ceases to work ever again... LOL.

    Know what you mean. I have been a bit more fortunate. Just another trading edge (merely the higher probability of one outcome over another outcome). The market just talks to us all the time. Some are deaf. At times, the market even sings. Need to get a hearing check myself from time to time to be sure I have not gone tone deaf. LOL..
