    • Well Wendy,

      The river Len; slow, almost stagnant, smells like israHell, and there is barely any aquatic life worth speaking of.

      • It’s always about money…

        Jake and Elwood Blues at the Holiday Inn – Armada Room

        WILLIE: So Jake, you’re out, you’re free, you’re rehabilitated, what’s next what’s happening, whatcha gonna do? You got the money you owe us motherfucker?

        • And What is Money..an illusion..a number on a sheet of paper or computer screen..It’s the moment when numbers on paper matter more than the beating hearts on the ground. When illusions matter more than lives. And maybe that’s why so many spiritual traditions call us back to peace — because peace is the only place where we remember what’s real….

          look at life the way the great teachers did. Confucius, the Daoist sages, the Qur’an, the Prophet Muhammad, Jesus Christ, Plato — they all warned us that chasing material gain leads to destruction. They understood that when we forget the value of human life, we lose ourselves….

  2. George,

    1929 initial DJIA fractal decay series: 10-11/26-27/27 days :: y/2.5y/2.5y

    2026 initial ACWI fractal decay series : 17 Feb 2026 11/28/28 days :: y/2.5y/2.5y

    Appropriately enough, 1 April 2026 will be day 22 or 2y, a final lower high or lower lower high of the ACWI 28 day 2nd decay fractal following a 3 Mar 2026 5/10/9/7 day :: y/2y/2-2.5y’/1.5y’ deteriorating growth and decay fractal series. (Day 9 of the 3rd fractal of this 5/10/9/7 series is day 22 of the 22 of 28 day 2nd fractal.) The expected 28 day ACWI nadir is 10 April 2028. The complementary hourly ACWI fractal deteriorating growth and decay series is 28/70/56/42 hours :: y/2.5y2y/1.5y.

    For the French CAC with trading holidays on 3 Apr and 6 Apr, the expected nadir is 13 April. Looking at the first 5 day (5/10/9/7 days) 2nd fractal trendline, the CAC should lose 22-30% of its 1 April 2026 value by 13 April 2026.

    • LOL – the Lammert Cycle and the Ebbinghouse-Ure model kinda own it again this week. Like Peoplenomics said Saturday “I will give it to you simply, but this is all conditional on no new out of channel news events beyond what was reflected in price discounts to the Friday close.
      Monday: We should have one more Dow drop, but the S&P and NASDAQ are in position where a turn up is due in state variance extremes. Comes from looking at who is “how oversold” in the following three charts.”
      I can’t speak for TEF, since I didn’t do med school, but at least one of us will remind you FRIDAY MARKETS ARE CLOSED and only a gen-u-ine idiot would hold over 3 days at anything less than scalpal or gunpoint. And play the dump and run Thursday…sheesh! The Lammert Cycle, Ebbinghouse-Ure and a calendar – plus enough sense not to lay down on the freeway in front of big trucks – can actually get somneonbe somewhere.

  3. ohh yeah beleive these numbers as well . sure , all truth over there . blew the lie detector machine up . yep the old strength by deception , is now buy with lies . fake alright . permabulls , all news green . never seen anything bad in 30 years .. spin , spin , spin

  4. Put a happy face on it …

    Big storms raking the Heartland today. Time off for farmers who have been burning tank stock diesel. Push comes to shove later. Or, maybe everything gets better? Put a happy face on it.

    MSM is, as always, showing vast incompetence, nattering about what hasn’t happened, might happen, end of world is nigh (it’s a click getter). Seems we are daring great things. Put a happy face on it.

    I read every scrap of info on Kharg Is., last time. Reread doesn’t esplain much more. Our wunderkind will have dynamic how-tos on everything possible. The IRGC has also had that same time to prepare. No happy face.

    We let barrels afloat (off Kharg platforms) sell in to market, to avoid oil spike. But why boots at Kharg? Seems a blockade and seizure accomplishes the same end. If only we had a big naval force on station …

    Thus far, the Intel has been layered exquisite. Though spending munitions is expensive, they were already reloading from NOS sent to Ukraine. The military industrial complex was measured but ready.

    We don’t need to control the Straits with Marines holding a beachhead. We need navies of the SELLERS, the Arabs (said understanding tribal nature) to coordinate with willing BUYERS, hello Japan, S. Korea, Europe writ large, to run picket escort with convoys of oceanic shipping. Mine sweepers to the front please.

    We, being NEITHER seller or buyer, should continue to mop up the launchers when they pop up. IOW, fly CAP (combat air patrol). The launchers, and bunker entries, are for air. Most just need to be struck once. Enter the vaunted A-10 Warthog close air support warrior lingering above.

    ‘Changes Everything’: The A-10 ‘Warthog’ Proves Its Worth Again

    It’s not rocket surgery. I bet our kids know way more than I know, in real time, constant eye-in-the-sky stuff. Everyone chill. We got this. Sorta. For now. Give a thought to families of our warriors and, say a prayer for those in the field. They need it.

    Paint the tape : momo entered early and often. Leverage pulled back in risk off mode got back in the game. Sorta. For now. Green days are pent up demand defeating waves. Refracting waves come after. That is the OBSCON for today. Back to the marvelous markets, it’s like a carnival barker pandering “everybody wins”

    Green days help paint monthly statements and performance reports less awful.
    Book em Danno. Raining, again. Yards are fairway green, color is popping on tree tips and we start anew.

    Put a happy face on it.

  5. wow !!! turnaround tuesday !! everybody knows what to do all the time . the united states of trump . well got a whole lotta more shortin ta do boy . no standin down stand up hit them sell short!! im particularly fond of that great nasdaq , huge prices no earnings what can go wrong

      • i dont read permabulls mate . im not on any payroll or patriot mission . i dont listen to stuff thats propaganda or patriot . hey gurus !!! ever heard of the velocity of money this tax dependant circus relies on !! nah of course not .. permabulls are us

    • No Shitski Len-ora, like who would buy stock in company that does not make money ? Seriously..

      That would be a very BIRD in my world of possible investment vehicles. More so than ever now, only companies I invest any money with that do not have positive earnings would be early stage Biotech companys Of which I currently own 2 early stagers, 1 mid growth stager, and one mature, best in class behemoth that does pay dividends. In otherwords 80 % of total money under investment, is domiciled in Dividend Payers.

      Thats right homegamers- if you cant show me the money Qtrly, you aint in the tbs investment pool right now..4 only the best “tasting tuna” gets to be tbs kissed.

      Preferably invested in ole blue chips at this time, that have been there and done that before. Dont want to own any “newbs’ when proverbial shit hits the fan.
      And at this point in time – I KNOW the SHIT is going Hit that fan HARD! Goes in hard, its coming out/off hard..
      No No No, No Thankyou please, it only makes me sneeze and then makes it hard to find the door…Ringo -https://youtu.be/S8ydo0AKbJs?

  6. Busy getting the Xmas gifts for this year done..got the last part today..still have to pick up ten more grommets and plugs.. tgen I can make some koji to toss in to..not everyone can get a meat aged or build one.. but using a koji flour mix you can do what a lot of high end restaurants do…speed age steaks and roasts..

    I had a lucid dream a few times where I had one on a table next to the parking lot..a little girl was standing there and I was making her a bag with powdered sugar in the candy planner with sprinkles on it..behind her was a line of soldiers waiting inline..so I got one…. I have had to many of my dreams give me a dejavu.. to not head them..
    I found out why my labs was so expe.. they sent them to the mayo for some extensive testing besides doing them here in the wastelands so far it doesn’t fit anything..no allergies and no cancer which has them baffled…they say I need surgery and then they will send the samples after they dig around to see if its the nasty.. I told them at this time I have to continue working and the costs associated with it simply aren’t covered..been down that road and had my youth destroyed by the aggressive actions of Satan and his minions.. I will not leave my wife high and dry.. with her mobility issues from her strokes..I actually visited with her about us signing a quick claim to one of the grandkids yesterday..let them have the house as long as we keep the bedroom..sell off all our crap and let them do what they want..at least then Satan can’t take it..and someone that can use it can have it….after taking the one guy to a cancer clinic and them telling him to leave..( when they sent him the letter asking for his deposit on his future care.. they booted him out..loading him up he started crying asking..what about me and my life..it took three months for the social worker to get him I ..after he left our spare bedroom his cancer came back and they refused to see him again..oops ) ..but the doctor said ok but if it gets worse again I need to get my but in..
    it just another day in paradise lol.
    Phil sings it best….
