Bottom was in.  I missed it.

Jeez, way to beat a great joke to death. I bet yer a scream at parties. "Well, actually..."
Sorry, is this some traditional US joke I'm not aware of?  Person A uses a word without knowing it's meaning, person B tells them they're wrong. Person A say no they aren't by using another word they don't know the meaning of and then we all laugh?  I'll have to watch out for that one in future.

It’s kinda a meta joke- WTC is senile so he keeps forgetting what words mean

Dragoncar, stop being such a dotard.

Some people don't really 'get' humor. After they post on here, they usually go sit at the train station and make YouTube videos of the locomotives.

So I gather.  Maybe you should take a dictionary with you then you can brush up your vocabulary whilst waiting for the next train to film.

In fairness, he called "the top" more than a month later, so i don't think its fair to give him any credit if we get to March 1 level, its got to go below his call on April 11 levels before i start handing out sarcastic certificates of achievement :)
Did I come off as sarcastic?

Not even, really.  thorstach "called" it on Feb 2, and the actual top was on Jan 26.  It's a lot easier to "call" a top if you wait a week. 
It took him 22 tries to even do that, so I thought he deserved an award :) Besides I had been sitting in the idea for a while,

and it was hard to hold in. I was afraid I might not get another chance!

When I frequented Bogleheads more, I seem to remember the general consensus was that rebalancing too often could hurt you. A quick google search only turned up this
https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Rebalancing which has a cited source at the bottom linking to some research suggesting the optimal rebalancing strategy (tl;dr check often but have large deviation standards before triggering a rebalance)

Thank you.

Rebalancing has absolutely nothing to do with capturing gains. It is all about controlling risk.

Who's "Cramer?"
Jim Cramer is the host of CNBC's "Mad Money".  He's known for be erratic and his show is filled with all sorts of wiz-bang noises.  He describes his investment style as "fast and furious trading".  At one point in each show he gives buy/sell recommendations to questions from listeners in spit-fire fashion (example - "Q: what do you think about this Chinese solar company XYZ? A: With so much sun falling on China I think it's a bright idea!!! Next question!")

...in other words, everything mustachian investors are not.

He's a television personality loosely based on the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland, except the things he says make even less sense and they're stock-market themed.

Well we are back up to where the S&P500 was on Dec 11th.. Is this the end of the correction or a head fake before another leg down to -20%?

Which one do I want?*.. Hmm Good question.. a 20% pullback would have me changing my asset allocation more towards stocks so in time I would have more money. A continual rise would have me regaining my peak NW in a shorter time.

Blue corn tortillas huh? I am intrigued. Will have to try to track down either those or blue corn flour to give it a shot.

I mean *ahem* since in the coming afterscape from the total stock market collapse into which we have only just begun to slide tortillas, rice, and beans will all be unaffordable luxuries and all.

Naturally blue corn chips are blue because they are aflatoxin flavored.  Not recommended.

Now if you're just buying the artificially blue chips that are dyed to LOOK like the carcinogenic naturally blue chips, that's probably fine.  Unless they're dyed with any of the top three blue food dyes used in the US, all of which are also known carcinogens in lab animals.  They're banned in the EU, but Americans loooove their aflatoxin chips.

Naturally blue corn chips are blue because they are aflatoxin flavored.  Not recommended.

Naturally blue corn chips are blue because they are made from varieties of corn which produce high concentration of the plant pigment anthocyanin (particularly in the pericarp so it's a lot easier to make the chips blue if they are quote-unquote whole grain which is why I was surprised blue corn tortillas would work well). Anthocyanin is also an antioxidant, which is the justification people use for arguing blue corn, and purple carrots/cauliflowers are better for you. Honestly I don't know that the concentrations are high enough to matter biologically, but that's besides the point.

Now most super high anthocyanin lines are know of aren't particularly well adapted to being grown in the midwestern corn belt. In addition, most (all?) blue corn also doesn't have any bt traits, so they get more insect damage, which provides more places for the Aspergillus fungus that makes the alfatoxin to get into the ear and start growing. Anyway, long story short it wouldn't strike me as totally implausible if someone has done a study and found that blue corn tends to have more alfatoxin than regular yellow #2 corn, but I'd still be curious to see the study if you have it handy.

Beware of GMDs (Genetically Modified Dividends) and artificial earnings flavorings, as the dead cat meltup renders most starches especially vulnerable to derivative fungi. Top is in.

The only way for me to source this information for you would be for me to contact one of my ex-girlfriends from graduate school who talked about this topic waaaay too much, and I'm sorry but as much as I like you this is just not going to happen.  She's a nice lady and all, and getting more and more famous (as academics go) every year, but I'm not about to call her up and say "Hey, this corn guy on the internet is interested in your blue chip fetish."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Okay, fair enough. I try to avoid contacting any of my exes about their fetishes as well.

Well (some) blue corn may have althete's foot or at least its 2nd cousin once removed, but that isn't what makes it blue. And you can certainly get bad batches of white or yellow corn with the same issue caused by the same fungus. Testing for alfatoxin is important -- and scary -- regardless of the color of your corn. <-- remember this when you're trading your last gold coin (you did pull all of your money out of the market and convert it into gold right at the top didn't you?) for a bag of corn flower in the desolate wastelands america is soon to become as the mother-of-all-tops recedes into a fable told to children gathered around a fire made from burning tires of a more civilized, golden age.

Blue popcorn is good too (popped, it is white but with a slight bluish tinge). Although the kernels are so small and light they blow out of my air popper. Topcorn.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Okay, fair enough. I try to avoid contacting any of my exes about their fetishes as well.

 That's seems odd, I contact mine because of their fetishes!
                                :-)
 Or would that be mine? Now I'm confused.

Looks like another big drop on the horizon today.

Which is really just a back-door way of saying, "Top is IN!"

So not only has it taken the top callers X number of years to become right (finally) it has also taken the "inflation is out of control" callers a similar number of years to be right.

Love the guessing game.

It's only guessing if you keep your relative time-frame narrow (weeks to months). 
Top is in; Bottom is in... sometime over the next few years.

geologically speaking that's very precise.

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
