Nice that you conceded the point, though.
The vast majority of Private Jet owners are self made entrepreneurs (not many liberals btw). Don’t confuse those people with people who can afford Wheels Up.

27,000. What do you think it's gonna be when the vaccine is announced? 40,000?

The tears must be constant by now.

:lol:
30 stocks in that index....cap weighted.

Number of stocks up 10%+ - MSFT (32%), AAPL (32%), HD (20%), WMT (11%)

Number of other stocks up 5 - Visa (4.5%), JNJ (2.65%), INTC (1.42) PG (.14%)

BA down 45%
Exxon down - 36%
Walgreens down - 31%
JPM down - 28%
Raytheon down 28%
AXP down - 22%

5 are down 10-20%
7 are down 1-10%

Of course those others are down, few people and businesses are moving and shaking. And as the lock downs swing the other way to balance out, you will likely see the big hitters tweak back up.

No, I 'don't get it'.

This reminds me of when Dems demand you listen to their imaginary friend in Portland who says don't watch the video's, listen to me instead!

It's pretty simple - you are either in the winners or the losers. You just happened to pick the right 5 out of 30. :roll:

Because a partisan media ran with a plainly spotty video, we can no longer trust any video?

Every time this guy types on his keyboard he shows us more of what he's made of. On this post he's looking down his nose at people who "only" can afford jet charter and partial ownership. Explains why he has no clue about how the majority of America lives.

I'm guessing when Petey graduated from UF Mummy and Father left little Petey one of their toys to manage and their summer home in Boca Grande to live at. Maybe not the house and just the guest cottage. Or maybe he really does live under the Gasparilla Bridge. It's the only way to explain this socially inept troll.

Ok, whatever...how do you analyze your own portfolio? Bottom line or by investment or both?

Here are the facts -

NASDAQ 100 = 24%
NASDAQ = 19%
Dow Bonds = 6.4%
SP500 = -.82%
Dow = -5.95%
Equal Weight Dow 30 = -7.36
SP500 Equal Weight = -7.80%

Why such a delta?

No, it's going to put me in: I'm not an idiot and can think territory.

All videos are just one perspective, Pete. All of them.

You understand that just fine when a video shows a Republican in a bad light. Pity you can't apply this understanding to all videos.

They do have a solid reason. Do you know what it is?

I'll tell you: it's to provoke an over-the-top response from the gubmint, one that will turn more people against the gubmint.

So far it's working really well. Just look at the YUGE opinion shift to the left on BLM. Yesterday the white manager of the LA Dodgers knelt during the national anthem.

Remember Trump's tear-gas cleared march to the church? How'd that work out as an opinion mover?

Trump and his goons (and you) are falling into the trap antifa is setting for him.

Lighting my house on fire doesn't help their agenda, so they're not going to do it.

And I would call the local police and fire depts if they did, not Trump's secret police goons.

Do you guys really not understand the strategy? Do you not understand that it's working? Have you looked at polling on race relations and how it's shifted over the past few months, to Trump's detriment?
