Finding a new base.

Today's Tids Issue 3,903

For Seaching new depths:

Creep: Any unsavory character as defined by dads evaluating men calling on daughters; 2. The unfortunate limitations upon stock growth as valuations sneak up on reasonable maximums. Alas, my daughters have all married great people, but unfortunately, we are all now wed to a healthy market with nowhere to go. How do we drift sideways and still see our portfolios rise? Aha, we look for losers bypassed by the euphoria…that haven’t caught up with the creep, But with depressed valuations, come problems. One big undersold sector is retail which is loaded with debt, and undergoing perhaps a paradigm change. Inside that umbrella there are some sensible alternatives that can withstand the rain. Healthcare stocks are also languishing because nobody knows nuttin’ about what the government will do about insuring 20% of the population. But, I expect the keen eyes of Wall Street denizens will spot potential medicine among them interesting enough to to begin the healing in that sector. Disney, the former golden, highly animated stock turned sluggish in the shadows of an evil castle known as ESPN, could be whistling again a happy tune. It is the world leader in entertainment content with many  new options for distribution. GM on the other hand is prime position for growth with a  5.5 multiple. But, how many of their products are hot? The Tids aren’t long enough for more that these tidbits, but the problem for continued growth is real, especially if we continue to pursue quality.

Those who only see the typos of life will continually miss the essence of ideas.

While it is extremely difficult to take the cringe factor of Trumperino, it is easier than dealing the fear associated with direction of the Obama admin.

Has anybody seen the Red Sox bats?

National news has become a blur, ennui; it is a tired, mindless repetition from people with agendas. That’s probably why I am reading more intently than ever our local pertinent, albeit skinny daily paper. A story about rearranging traffic patterns in my neighborhood is much more important to my daily life than the ramblings of so-called people’s representatives.

But then, I’ll find that somebody has an agenda in moving the streets.

Pedestrians have got to learn that crosswalk entitlements come with a life sustaining need for personal responsibility.

That shooting of the apparently incredibly innocent woman sitting in a Minneapolis police patrol car is certainly an odd tale. All cameras, in the car and on officers were shut off. The latest detail is that the shooter, Mohamed Noor, had two recent complaints against him. But, basically little else is known and he situation is very strange. I will be following this one. The Tids likes strange.

New IPO’s Blue Apron and Snap are good examples of how Wall Street has its irrational exuberance well under control. That is good for confidence going forward.

I think I have slowed down my mind to the point where it is having trouble finding Tidlets. Good for my temperament, but not so hot for entertaining, informative Tids.

The Answer:

Number one is Jackie Evancho. Next I order are Elle fanning, Peyton List, Sabena Carpenter, Ariel Winter, Madison Pettis, Bailee Madison, China An McClain, Ryan Newman and Maddie Ziegler. Never heard any of 9 of them. Get ready for publicists.

I think these Tids are a little loose.

Tomorrow I hope to find a little juice.
