A little early and 'only' a 57% chance.
Simply FYI:

Looks like Harold Dagget (Longshoreman Union President) might have his membership on strike for awhile.
CNN video clip below.
I got a little Jimmy Hoffa vibe from Harold.


Hear union leader’s response when asked if he’s worried strike will hurt Americans

Given the east coast strike I found this interesting, make of it what you will.

In the short term I think people are sympathetic for what is going on with the longshoreman. But if it goes on for a couple of weeks it will turn to anger as it starts to affect all of us.

Just FYI:

October jobs report expected to show slowing growth amid hurricane aftermath, Boeing strike​

Great day do be in the Russell 2000. :)
Got some last summer and almost
dumped it when I got clobbered on Halloween. :(
Gonna watch the FED. I think the next rate cut is locked in but reading some
stuff, supposedly some of Trump's policies may re-ignite inflation, but it's early.
 
Just FYI:
In the video below Tom Lee says Bitcoin could be 6 figures before the end of 2024!?
Also, he said small caps could gain 100% 'in the next 2 years'.
I've been pursuing Russell 2000 and the S-Fund and the Election day boom was indeed a very pleasant surprise.
Definitely did not see that coming.
But am not currently gonna add to
positions until I get a better feel of what Trump's policies are actually gonna be.

Again FWIW:
 
I get the feeling that Trump's election has overshadowed Fed rate cuts. That is, market is trying to figure out his new economic policies and how it will affect the stock market.
Just an observation FWIW.
30% S-fund, 20% C-fund, hedging my bets. 🤞
btw, what's the 'juicy' part of Dec historically?

sample story:

Markets look to Howard Lutnick, other Trump economic picks for signals on tariffs​

Tom Lee has said that the 2T 'on the sidelines' in money-market funds will flow back into equities but
not so says Apollo economist as per below.

The Fed's rate cuts will spark a $2 trillion exodus from money-market funds, Apollo chief economist says​

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/feds-rate-cuts-spark-2-054301808.html
Apollo is saying the credit market is the main landing spot for the money-market rotation, not equities. Money flowing into the credit market would lower interest rates across its market. Margin available to investors is credit. Lower-interest rates for owed margin would lower the risk of using it to invest. New money would then fuel the market higher.
