If it wasn’t for a couple of hot pop stocks, it appears that the broader big stocks are churning, with flickering greens and reds throughout the day. The boards look like an indecisive traffic signal with a faulty on-off switch.
My jokes must be getting bad, because everybody is sending me new ones.

How come politicians who are stifling to America are called progressive?
There are two forces driving the surprisingly strong real estate market. One, because of Covid and staying inside, people are realizing that their homes are too small. Two, more and more people are discovering that they can live where they want, and don’t have to be near their company’s offices.

September is usually a time when the Bears start moving on Wall Street.. Although, right now some are quite surprised at the strength of the Stock markets these early days of the nineth month. Two of the hottest, which have been the basis of retail investor enthusiasm – Tesla and Apple. Tesla’s lofty valuation is making seasoned professionals nervous. A lot are pinning those high valuation hopes on the possibility of a million-hour battery supposedly to be a big announcement on September 22. And, then there is Apple.

Most agree that Bill Gates would be Number One if he didn’t give so much to charity.
