A good review and (later) opinion piece that sums up the recent “about face” (studies and admissions) that we’ve all noticed here in the States since December regarding this so called “pandemic” …with references: https://tinyurl.com/2p8y34aa

At the end of the day, this will hopefully be a great learning experience on the immense power of mass manipulative propaganda.

Let’s all hope that any damage done in this Draconian effort is quickly recoverable.

I have often seen the early pullback only to trigger a bear scorch top near the T end.

Isn't Jan 12th also Weird Wally Wednesday?

(the Wednesday before the week of Options Expiration Friday (third Fri of each month) is typically very volatile)

We Got both. Will we get even more seasonal weakness after Friday's opex?
