Interesting news indeed, especially about that new vaccine. Will it have any effect on us in the USA? That part is unknown. Will others copy it? Probably.
Evidently a "correction" is when prices fall down to what somebody feels is the correct value. Certainly each organization has some number that represents the actual value of a share. That bears little relationship to the current share price, except in some strange exceptions.
An interesting point of view here explained. Certainly we have much faster communication between far more people, which may not be quite as wonderful as hoped. Modern word processing can allow even the raging maniac fool to produce a polished tome expressing all of their poisonous hate while having good grammar and perfect spelling. 50 years ago it was easy to pick out the crazy ones because their writings were incoherent strings of poorly spelled bad grammar. So are we really better off because of instant communication? Or in spite of it??
Certainly the big organizations on Wall street are doing quite well, with the federaal reserve doing it's best to help the rich get richer, not minding what the inflation is doing to those with much smaller incomes.
I am not familiar with "The Value Line Geometric Index", it sounds like an interesting concept though. What I do see is that free credit, interest-free borrowing, has reduced the need for running a business at a profit and allowed a large number of companies to keep on keeping on. And with those who can't run still in the race it gets crowded for those who can run well.
While the huge amounts of payments sort of keep things going, unfortunately the cash is being distributed fairly, so it goes to those in need and those with no need. Eventually the result will be either inflation or the rich getting much richer. So really it is a lose-lose situation approaching. Not my favorite kind of times.
I certainly hope that the revolution coming will not be excessively violent. And of course the problem with revolutions is always that the wrong people wind up being on top afterwards.
To quote that last line of that famous ballad, "BABA O'Riley, " Meet with the new boss, Same as the old boss."
Based on all of the additional comments, it is indeed reasonable that additional regulations should be put in place, AND probably better enforcement of those regulations already in place. Crime should not be allowed to pay.
This looks like a quite good explanation, along with some analysis. Also good explanations of some of the other terms. And a hint at the way to lose money playing stocks. Buying shares will Certainly bid up the price, and that leads to an apparent profit, but that apparent profit can only be realized by selling the shares. And selling shares always requires buyers. And if share prices have stopped climbing and look ready to fall, nobody will want to buy. So that is the way to have even quicker losses than the rapid gains.
It seems to all point back to the Federal reserve people taking care of their rich friends. The smell of moral corruption is just as bad now as the stench of stupidity It should have been clear that dropping the interest rate made it cheaper to borrow instead of improve. Unfortunately the fools in the federal reserve have been busy taking care of their rich friends for way to long, and the damage is quite a lot.
So what is needed is a deep house cleaning, WITH Extreme prejudice, taking all of the old-guard out of the fed and explaining to their replacements just what it was that got them removed, so as to avoid any repeats of the same.
