"They Don't Tell You You're An Idiot At The Top"

Because they're too busy selling into strength...













Pump and dump worst stock in the Dow. Check.



"How did IBM "beat" again? By once again applying a lower tax rate than a year ago: a paltry 11.0%, down from the already laughable 12.5% in Sept 30, 2016. Had IBM used even last quarter's 12.5% tax rate, it would have missed."

Dow 23,000 compliments of tax avoidance:




Pump and dump Chinese tech IPO. Check.

"this bull market is much older than the one that ended in 1987"

I can't argue with that logic
