    I do, first time ive deviated from that and kind of wish I didn't but SMCI skewing the index was concerning me. IJS is more bank heavy because it eliminates all the zombie companies in IWM but when high risk growth is pumping it underperforms.

    Not sure you're following my argument, I'm not disagreeing. But we all know they are out to get him. When everybody knows a thing it is indeed priced in. Over very long periods fundamentals will drive price...maybe. For the most part the stock market is a sentiment weighing machine. At some...

    This is why I'm leaning bullish. Literally everybody even knuckledraggers could write up this list. It's so obvious. None of it is insightful. That means sentiment is very low. Same kind of list we wrote up for DIS 30% ago. They didnt improve or address any issue on their list, sentiment...

    If it closes the week below the 200d would likely trigger a change of stance for me. (we closed below today) Not looking good at the moment.

    I think Cathy is way off on the speed of FSD and EV adoption but she isn’t wrong about the kind of company Tesla has to be become to be a good investment for the next decade.

    It has been an issue in the first few years, share issuance has gone down dramatically. This is extremely common for companies in that stage of their growth, not that I like it but it's one of the ways to burn less early on. I would never tolerate any net issuance in a mature company, I want...

    I would not do this. You just need to get it at close as possible, account for the thickness of the wall. If they are building the shed in place then they can make it work as long as it's close to where it needs to be. With a little measuring you should be able to get mark out the exact...

    Not being coy but you should do it yourself, especially if it intimidates you. I know we are all too manly to admit that some projects seem out of our wheelhouse but you have a tractor it's just work and part of the 'lifestyle' is getting out of your comfort zone and learning new skills. A lot...

    It's a pretty scary thing, you see the tight rope being walked and that makes you want to be cautious and take less risk, but that same instinct could end up hurting you more. It is very counterintuitive. And of course the solution can't be to throw caution to the wind. High liquidity...

    Jysin I was thinking about this exact guy this morning, just as an anecdote because I got a chuckle thinking about reading a future SVen post at S&P 500 8000 talking about how wrong the market is for constantly doing the wrong thing and going up. He is one of those guys with valid concerns but...

    That's a great trailer,, I would love to have this. I keep thinking about wanting material bunkers, but a really good trailer would reduce the need for them. I'm always paranoid about tri axels on my asphalt. It's a really firm driveway but a triaxle loaded with stone on a summer day can be a...

    I agree that slower growth for TSLA unit sales would have been better, sales got juiced and now it's going to be hard to keep any momentum. My worry is that they will exhaust the demand of the people who want and have the means and sales won't just slow but fall of a cliff. Rich people in...

    Started seeding yesterday, our weather has been in the 70s which is well above average for March. Normally want ground temps in the mid 50s , we have been very wet for weeks we finally had some drying out and so I'm taking the gamble. Early not usually a problem unless it starts to come up...

    I'm buying TSLA, would disclose it's only a 100 shares so far so take that for what it's worth. I do plan on buying more. I see no reason to buy at these levels if you think it's a car company. If it stays "just a car company" buying at these levels could be a disaster. We are at the stage...

    I knew it wasn't going to hit early because starting the year it became everyone's play wanting to be long smallcaps. Lots of that hot air has come out while we consolidate, more and more "stay away from small caps" from money managers.

    well look at february of 2023 was a very similar set up and it just couldn't get it done. Someday it's going to break out of this box and the longer its in the bigger the move is going to be when it does.

    Just need to hold 200d, definitely a day of market saying fine rates higher for longer. A weekly close of IJS below 200d would be concerning to me but it also just means we continue in the box we've been in for years. Will cross that bridge when we/if we come to it. What I'm seeing right now...

    I'm up almost 100% on my bitcoin ETF, this is where it's very hard to not sell when you make that kind of return so quickly. I'm going to hold on though. I really do want to hold it for 10 years if for no other reason to be able to see how it does against S&P over that period. If I had a...

    I have done chips and straw as bedding and it doesn't seem to make a ton of difference, I have stuck with straw just because I have as much as I need and one less thing to buy. Both seemed to be about the same difficulty cleaning out and about the same as far as dust. The floor of my coop is...

    I think it just plays into where you choose to hold an investment but not whether you wanted to make that investment. A strong divy player would perform better in an IRA than a brokerage. A brokerage is great for a high growth stock that could see significant price improvement but would still...
