9. Wait for it....

I have to believe the market has to react sometime, and my inclination would be that it will be a negative reaction. But then I don’t think the market represents what I once thought that it did. This war is fantastic for a certain section of the economy, right up to the point where something significant happens, and then even that section fails in the overall collapse.

If I had to guess, I’d say there will be a major sell off this week, maybe not by today’s closing bell, but sometime tomorrow. Barring a major event, it’s just a continuing downward trend.

Don’t anybody put any $$ out there based on what you just read in my post either, you apes. I’m not a financial advisor, nor do I claim any prescient stuff.
