Market Thoughts
$SPY $QQQ – Still long the market but did book a few gains. Looking to buy back any weakness. ; I’m bullish on 2015. ; Yes, there will be pullbacks and scary parts along the way.
As kids we get Christmas vacation. ; Why does that end as adults? ; Not fair – ; so I took it back! ; Been on vacation for a couple weeks.
Security stocks… ; Should make a ton of money. ; But could be acquisition plays from companies that need the growth into that market. ; Just thinking out loud.
Knowing history, do you think oil prices go lower and lower and lower? ; I think prices go higher someday because cars still run on gasoline and economies are growing. ; Meanwhile, environmentalists have declared war on fracking, pipelines, etc. ;
Commodity plays are tough with a rising US dollar, too. ; Watching banks around the world for easing and tightening kinds of moves. ; Also tough to hold foreign market ETFs when the US dollar goes up as those markets are denominated in foreign currencies. ; We are also seeing countries that basically have no economy other than exporting oil having a rough go of it. ; I’m looking at you $RSX and $EWW.
I think there is a biotech stock bubble. ; Similar to internet and business-to-business stock bubble of 1999-2000. ; It won’t end well.
Back to blogging and audioboos and podcasts in 2015. ; I think having this as part of my market review routine helps to keep touch on what’s going on. ; I have been more active on Twitter. ; Blogging is so 2006 they say.
By the way, I like the negativity on TWTR. ; Don’t own shares yet, but it is on my watch list.
Heading home today. ; I’ve watched a $NFLX movie via streaming everyday. ; WOW! ; But I don’t find myself watching many DVDs anymore, so thinking about canceling that part. Anyone else?
I wanted to spend some time this month clearing the backlog of recorded shows on the DVR. ; Uh, haven’t made much progress. ;
