Valkyrie's Account Talk

Well, I don't see anything offensive in your post. Seems fine. Apparently the post right after yours caused that person to go off in an unusual direction, and I just could not let his name calling go unanswered.

Best wishes to you Valkyrie :D:D:D
 
Just trying to put out the fire, if it continues it will be dealt with appropriately. Politics in the USA is a mess. Just cool it.ahamock.gif

I think what you said speaks for itself. I am a Catholic and love God. Full quiver Christians"? Catholics having loyalty to the Pope and not the Constitution! I am loyal to Jesus Christ. I listen to our spiritual leader, as any Christian does when they listen to a homily from their minister at church each Sunday! Constitution is based on Christian principles.. ,What you have said is very offensive! Name calling....its all over.

You state, "Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses" was an edgy song lyric when I was a child. Now that I've seen the faces and heard the radical racist and naive positions of many of you in the military and Federal Law Enforcement..I see now it has manifested into reality.". You may not specify a particular person, but you are saying many of YOU in the military and Federal Law Enforcement are radical racists in their views!

And I go back and read how you opened, by stating you are disappointed to see this website, inundated "with vocal radical right wing zealots". This is all Name calling...most definitely!? Catholics having loyalty to the Oi.

I am NOT trying to carry on something people are seeing as insulting to their beliefs, so I'll clarify what you said and leave it at that. I is, was, and am not insulting you.

A full quiver Christian or "quiver-full" is a belief, in radical right wing theological circles, which explicitly states white American Christians have a responsibility to God to create as many children as possible to bleed out non-believers and people of color. I've met many of these in Fed LE and been invited to meetings regularly.

I specifically stated I have met many Catholics who openly claim to have loyalty to the Pope over the US Constitution. That is all I said. I did not say "Catholics are loyal to the Pope over the US Constitution". I sincerely hope you see the nuance there.

I'm dumbfounded by your interpretation of my words. Are you intentionally applying my negative opinions of radical conservative zealots to yourself? I was outlining how we should not entertain the radical beliefs of either extreme end of the political or social spectrum.

Again, I do not want to devolve into a name calling back and forth, it is not my intention. Please read what I write critically, I am not insulting Christianity or Conservative values.
 
I think we've given enough warnings about spouting political opinions because people will respond, will be offended (on both sides) and we've been down this road before and I'm not going there again.

Thanks for stopping by, but this thread will be temporary closed if it's all about politics / religion, etc.

If I see it in other threads and it's the same offenders, those members will be banned. I just don't have time to babysit every post.

I really wish we could do this, but we've been around for 16 years and discussing politics nearly destroyed the forum a couple of times because it brings out the worst in some people, and I don't want to go down that road again.

I hope you all can understand. We'll get your thread back before long Valkyrie.

For those of you who are compelled to talk politics, might I suggest: http://www.politicalforum.com

Now, how about those TSP Funds, huh?
 
Humm... I thought it was that the Pivot Point guy thinks we're going down-down-down for the next several years and we will not see the highs set in February until then. :worried:

So maybe investment strategy re-tool or brain re-tool is in order... I need to think about that.... .:rolleyes:
 
him and pivot boss both are calling to hit 3k on s&p and then down. Both said down to march lows and maybe below, Pivot Point was more adamant about that will not hit Feb 2020 highs until 2025. I think I remember that right and that also Ira Epstein is basically saying same. Ira called the down turn for 4/30 when the Fibonacci line was hit. I should have went to G. lesson learned.

That is correct about Pivot Point (James). I recently started watching Pivot Boss (Frank). He does not seem as bearish as the James. I haven't watched anything from Ira.
 
I Love Ira!!! He uses Bollinger bands and the 18 and 100 day MAs plus the Slow Stochastics, and swing lines. His morning flash reports are very good. oh and I think he just started using Fibonacci retracements sometime last year on his end of day financial reports.

PS I just listened to Ira. He said he is scared of Friday's unemployment numbers! I have never heard him say anything like that. He says that around 9:34 into the video.

That also makes me nervous, and the reason why I will likely IFT today if it looks like we will close green by the IFT deadline. But, we all know that anything can happen after that deadline, especially with some Fed Folk scheduled to speak today... with Minneapolis Fed's Neel Kashkari scheduled to speak right at noon and Philadelphia Fed's Patrick Harker scheduled to speak at 1600. When St. Louis Fed's James Bullard spoke on Tuesday at 1500, Mr. Market declined as he spoke. I witnessed it firsthand.

But if everyone is nervous about Friday, then that means Mr. Market will once again ignore the news and advance. :cheesy:

Yep, your right that anything can happen, and lots of times what you think will happen doesn't materialize. But lots of people talking up the market...And it may work! So, it may very well advance... But for how long? Futures are up right now...kinda wish I had stayed in, but market is at what looks like an a turning point...or very close to it. So, I am at peace with my decision. :smile:
 
something is and has been wrong with corporate america

How’s your 401(k) doing?
Stephenson even got a $1.2 million company matching contribution to his “deferral plans” last year. He also holds at least $20 million in stock and options in the company. His total compensation for the last three years averaged $30 million a year.
AT&T declined to comment beyond confirming the numbers.
Awkwardly, Stephenson recently warned that AT&T’s 250,000 world-wide employees could face layoffs due to the coronavirus crisis. Details haven’t been announced. Nor have any severance terms.
 
As of today I'm looking for a S&P low of 2700 or a little lower to get back in. Then let it ride to 3000 or a little higher and then out and watch it drop to the march low and maybe beyond.

This could always change per any extreme news events.
