So you just rockin flippy floppies, or straight barefoot you rebel?

I still have my favorite socks, MMM, CASY, and of course... AAPL!

What's the best Video forecast to watch on the markets?

Nightly Business Report is on PBS and posts the broadcast to Youtube every evening. It is the unbiased general business/finance/investment news of the day. It's been on for probably 40 years, now produced by CNBC, so it does have their slant on it.

I'm trying to decide when to dip my toe in the water.

Yeah. Funny how the big drop 2 days ago got unending attention (the sky is falling) from the talking heads. Today, almost half of it is back, and nothing but crickets. Yawn

Could not stand it any longer and sold / gave away all my socks accumulated during the working years. Hated to part with them - but I am retired now and rebalancing my wardrobe.

Hat tip to Shane.

Eh, are your socks beyond redemption anyway? Like dis?

I keep mine. They are salvageable. Like dis.

Socking or stocking?

All I know is I checked my balances Monday, and I was up about 60K from the last time I checked, two months ago. So much for a recession. The media sure seemed to be excited about the possibility.

Let me know when the P/E 10 gets to about 20 or so. Otherwise, the AA will remain the same.
