5 famous investors say this is when the stock market will crash
5 famous investors say this is when the stock market will crash

"Just when you thought it was safe to be in the market again, the Dow Jones industrial average sank more than 420 points, or just under 2%, on Tuesday..."

The bond market bursting, in terms of what Stockman says, is what Greenspan said last year.
Greenspan was right (even a few years early) on the Irrational Exuberance crash by the end of the 90's so I give him lots of weight, and less weight to those who say "Stocks have nowhere to go but up, because we had tax cuts" :(
 
Not a good way to close out the month. However I did finish positive for the month. Still looking to get back to my 2017 finish. Arg!!!

"NASA's next Mars mission will be the first Red Planet spacecraft to lift off from the West Coast. The InSight Mars lander is scheduled to launch on Saturday (May 5) at no earlier than 4:05 a.m. PDT (7:05 a.m. EDT/1105 GMT). Here's how you can watch it in person, or online at Space.com or other locations..."

[h=2]How to watch online[/h] "If you can't make it to California, there are several ways to watch InSight fly online, too. Space.com will stream the launch and NASA commentary live from our home page. Alternatively, news briefings and launch commentary will be streamed on NASA TV and JPL's live video feed. (An archive of the launch will also be available on these pages, in case you aren't able to watch it live.)..."
 
Definitely needed the sticky pants yesterday. By the end of the day I was down $3.04. 3 dollars and 4 cents. I'll take that as a win. Hope today is better.

"Scientists, engineers and reporters gathered at NASA's Glenn Research Center in Cleveland on May 2 for a news conference announcing the latest results of the Kilopower nuclear power plant project: It has finished all of its major ground tests and met or surpassed the development team's expectations.

NASA is developing the experimental reactor to provide reliable energy for long-duration crewed missions to the moon, Mars and destinations beyond."

"NASA's InSight Mars lander is a stationary probe designed to study the interior of the Red Planet. It will be a stationary mission, not like NASA's famous Opportunity, Spirit and Curiosity rovers,. Staying in place is necessary for its major science goals, which include learning more about the Martian composition, and how tectonically active Mars is. The mission will also be notable for its CubeSats, which will be the first time such tiny spacecraft fly beyond Earth."
 
Sure wish the "C & I" funds would out perform the "S" fund for a little bit like it did in January. I know they will for sure if I go back to 100% "S". :laugh:

Well, The C Fund out performed the S Fund yesterday. :D Shoot, it out performed most of last year. I'd say it's time the S Fund got a little more back.

Actually, May is a good time for the S Fund. It was the winning fund 9 out of the last 17 years since its inception. That's more than the other funds combined. I find that surprising since many people are afraid of losing their sticky pants in May even though the F & G Funds only won 4 of thos 17 years. :blink:

Interesting and true. I decided on yesterday that I would change my allocations to reflect your statement. I'm in for the ride! Woo Hoo!
