      I can understand how a rigorous risk analysis of all the factors and potentials involved would indicate a higher chance of Trump usurping the presidency after a legitimate election loss, than Trump fudging the jobs report.

        The market had baked in the correction Friday. The story is bogus.

          Yep. Both on the incentives and the mechanisms available.

            The tail risk analysis science has spoken. Maybe Taleb is finding a way to bet on 20 years of president Trump as we speak. Or maybe he's betting that Trump fudged the jobs report, only at way higher odds.

              Down a little more than that, but I can't tell for sure because I didn't mark the 2/19 high. I only save monthly snapshots. I'm down 4.2% from my peak month-end, which was 12/31.

              So I finally checked, I’m actually up 12.6% over my peak (12/31 too).

                  Nothing intentional, though I did put a little into RBGLY (Lysol) in March. They normally trade at $17, but for some reason had dropped to $12 in March. I figured their revenues were going to be through the roof, so why not?) they are trading at $17 again, so that was nice but I didn’t put much in. Mostly the increase was because 12 months ago I shifted to a more aggressive mix and for whatever reason, they’ve recovered exceptionally well since my 12 month low on 3/31.

                    Oops

                    Lets see...

                    The Washington Post, a rag known for consistently publishing fake news, posts a tweet before the jobs report had even come out claiming the unemployment rate was 20%. Then the jobs report comes out and the unemployment rate actually dropped, and was just over 13%. New jobs bounced higher than even the most optimistic predictions, the Washington Post quickly removes the tweet, then publishes a story about how the report was wrong and the unemployment rate was actually ....20%..

                    Bwahahahaaaaaaaaaa

                    Want to buy a bridge in London???

                    BWWWAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA

                      Jumping on VDE was a decent move. I could’ve DCA’d a bit more but still, it’s up nicely.

                      I also bought a little American Airlines back when my trader friends said to avoid it. I’ve seen a 142% return so far. Bought it at $8.71 a share. Wish I had bought more!

                      Overall, I’m up about 10% YTD. Could’ve been more but I still have a good chunk of cash on the sidelines since I didn’t expect the initial rebound to stick.

                        I heard AA just went to 75% of its old schedule.

                        Anecdotally, a friend flew LGA-ORD on them Friday and said the plane was 75-80% full. LGA was quiet but ORD busy and half the people not wearing masks.

                              Should I dump the stock of any company that features Blm on the home page?

                              That is a fair percentage of the portfolio.

                              It is really in need of a good rebalancing.

                                  I guess the WaPo correcting unemployment numbers was really on point. More evidence of it today, not.

                                          A friend just flew Chicago - LAX on United. She said that the plane was about 70% full, all middle seats (except for her row and one other LOL ) were empty.

                                          United requires masks, and if you did not have one, they gave you one. Also were handing out sanitize wipes if you wanted to wipe your seat, tray etc.

                                          Snack was given out in a sealed plastic bag - water bottle, nuts, napkin. No meal service was to be given.
