Ebbinghaus is easy – (click here if the term is new) – and a bit worrisome: Mid Day view of the Marginal 7’s hood shows trouble in paradise…
Which is news around here. An old TV show rattlesd through headspace: “Warning! Warning!”
ChatGPT said:
“The phrase you’re recalling is “Danger, Will Robinson!” from the 1960s television series Lost in Space. In the show, the Robot frequently warns young Will Robinson of impending threats by exclaiming this line.”
Well, that makes it all better, then, right?
Could be an interesting close…

Off topic . I just got a statement from my insurance company. My drug Zeljanz cost my insurance company $5,928.19 for a months worth. My copay was $1,918.46. My copay maxes out at $2,000 a year starting this year so it is free to me for the rest of the year but I think my insurance company still has to pay the larger amount monthly. Jeeze. What do under or not insured people do?
Good Lord! Even with the GoodRx coupon the price is $3,070.
Uninsured? They suffer with it. I’m waiting to see what my copay will be for my upcoming hip replacement surgery. My 2020 colon resection surgery cost me $2.5k for a total bill of $12.5k. I’m guessing the hip will be similar.
ChatGPT thinks that prices are might be lower elsewhere.
“India: In India, the cost of Xeljanz can vary significantly:?
A 60-tablet bottle of 5 mg Xeljanz is listed at ?17,574 (approximately $240 USD) after a 74% discount from the original price of ?66,344. ?

Generic versions, such as Tofacitinib (Tofacinix) 5 mg, are available, with prices ranging from $40 to $70 USD for 30 tablets, depending on the manufacturer. ?

China: In China, Xeljanz was initially priced at 2,085 yuan (approximately $320 USD) for a 28-tablet pack of 5 mg tablets, resulting in a monthly cost of around 4,170 yuan (approximately $640 USD). After price negotiations in 2019, the monthly cost was reduced to below 2,000 yuan (approximately $310 USD), improving affordability for patients. ?

George,
Interpolated Fractals..
With the loss of America’s western alliance and that alliance’s investment capital in US equities (and likely soon to be US debt), the European composite STOXX hit its peak valuation on 3 March 2025, later than the US peak valuation on 19 February 2025. The Chinese Shanghai (2008), Taiwan(July 2024), Japanese(July 2024), Canadian (Jan 2025)and Indian markets(Sept 2024) hit their peak valuations months/years ago. The Nikkei bested its 1989 peak valuation by about 10%, only to currently fall below the 1989 peak by about 5% as of today.
The best equity composite to follow may be the one that peaked the latest, i.e., the STOXX which is capitalized at only about 1/4 of the Wilshire. A 28 February 2025 8/14 of 20/20 day fractal decay series could be the 1st fractal base for a 46/95/95 day series taking global equities to a low in Sept 2025 and a lower low in early 2026. The 14 of 20 day STOXX 2nd fractal matches the current 14 of 20 day 3rd fractal of the current 3 February SPX model 8/19/14 of 20 days. Both the SPX and the STOXX have interpolated (18 Dec 2024 , 20 Dec 2024, respectively) 16/40/14 of 39-40 day fractal growth and decay series, ending near or at the same date.
