Uh oh.  Market is down like 4%. Thorstache warned us.  Fear is back.

Did we decide if misspelling Thorstach's name is a punishable offense? Can you go to hell for insulting the Prophet?
I mean, it's not like he spelled it Thorestach.

Fear is back, VIX above 15, XIV breaking down. SPY to follow, earnings will be a reality check.

I dunno. Fear gave way to incredulity, then to ambivalence. Does that still count?

Honestly since the top is in, hell will probably be better than earth soon.

I've noticed that about 30% of Americans don't believe anything they don't want to believe if it hasn't happened to them or someone very close to them.   It's at the root of our problems.

That's lower than I would expect.  Though I guess don't believe is different than don't care.

Getting creamed!  The last time my net worth was this low was...

August 20th.

It's like I'm the same miserable wretch I was back on August 20th.  2.5 weeks wasted with no progress! 

One day I'll remember to tell my kids about that one glorious time back when the top was in.

By rebound you mean cratering all the way down to 2019 levels.  I predict a blood bath.  TOP IS IN.

Yessssss! Yesterday morning I was thinking that I felt a disturbance in the force* and maybe it would be a good idea to rebalance and buy more. So I did.

And whatttaya know? The Oracle confirms. And Lo, and Behold the markets take notice and the universe again returns to balance.

The Onion posted an article about Aunt Jemima being replaced. Less than a week later, Quaker actually announced a brand name change.

That's thorstach level prognostication.

Impossible, Thorstach is clearly an advanced artificial intelligence with computational and predictive powers far more advanced than any human.

At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the prophet!’ or, ‘I am he!’ do not believe it. For false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
